HondriIIa and Taou
Plants Will Be Tanned and
Cultivated as Source

Moscow. July 7.-fP)-Soviet Russia,
rich in oil, grain and other natural
resources, is rubber poor.
But the Communist leaders hope to
remedy this flaw soon and roll their
own In gutta-percha without having
to spend good, h~ard-earned gold with
British and American syndicates.
The new hope of the Soviets is in
caoutchouc, sometimes called India
rubber, and the wherewithal is in the
hondrilla and t~aou-sagyiz. plants
which hitherto have been considered
only as weeds.
According to the doctors of the five
year plan, some $4,000 acres will be
sown to hondrilla and t~aou-sagyiz this
year. In Kazakistan, the Ukraine and
Northern Caucasus.
How much rubber will be extracted
from this crop is problematical.
Production Was Small
Last year the Soviet factories in
Moscow and the Caucasus turned out
only about 1,5O0 pounds of home
grown rubber. This was discourage
ing, but it melted the Communists to
further efforts.
Endeavors were made to utilize the
wild-growing hondrilla and taousag-
viz in tn Ukraine and Tajokistan,
but utilization of the wild product
apparently has been difficult. So
now it has been decided to tame and
cultivate the plants.
The SovietS are also planting ga
vault, another plant from which rub
Der is obtained. In addition a plant
called vatochnik, which contains a
certain amount of rubber, is to be
cultivated.
The Soviets have formed a special
trust for developing the rubber in
dustry under the name of "Kauchuk-
onos." This trust has organized six
farms for planting rubber trees, three
Of which are in Kazakistan and one
each in Turkmenistan, the Trans
Caucasus and the Ukraine.
Two scientific research Institutes
also are busy in hunting new rubber
bearing plants.
Have High Hopes
The hope is that the Soviets will
be able to obtain $4,000 to 10000 tons
of rubber from their own
within three or four years.
The rubber plight of the Commu-
nists is shown in the import figures for
1880. Last year ONE $4,000 tons of
c~aoutchouc were imported at a cost

RUBBER SUPPLY FROM WEEDS

of about $12,50O 900. The rubber fac
tory at Leningrad consumed about 80
per cent of this producA.
The Leningrad laboratory first had
the idea of producing home grown
rubber. The rubber trust in 1925 sent
an expedition to South America,
which brought back rubber plant
seeds, 95 per cent of which were sue
cessful in maturing.
Later experiments were made with
wild hondrilla and taou-sagyiz. These
proved that while the wild variety is
not especially adaptable, the cultured
plant can be made to yield about IL
per cent rubber.

course of that fighting, and it has
been said that more men were killed
than in any other part of the world,
in an equal geographical area, during
any war up to the time of the World
war.
Another massacre Of human lives
was staged at the famous Battle of
the Wilderness in that sad conflict.
Here, in region most bitterly fought
over, that extends all the way from
few miles south of Washington to
the Rappahannock, the opposing
armies could not see each other, vet
ferociously fought on.
1t is estimated the Wilderness battle
cost 5,597 Union soldiers, and the Con-
federate loss was even more.
Surgical Horrors.
The real horrors Of the Civil war,
however, seem to be recorded in the
surgical dreadfulness Often ampu-
tation and other major operations had
to be hastily performed in improvised
field hospitals, without anesthetics.
Chloroform, considered very danger
Gus, and undoubtedly causing death
in many instances, was the only anes-
thetic available in favorable circum-
stances.
Like flies, men died at the base hos
pitfalls from infected wounds and cpl
denies of gangrene, usually spread by
the hands and instruments of the sur!
geons themselves. They were too
busy with other things even to imag-
inc the existence Of germs.
Nearly four men died of disease for
every one killed in battle during the
Civil war, which is striking contrast
to the record In the great conflict Of
1917, when much less than two for
each man killed in action died of dis
ease.
Is it any wonder that American
hearts are stirred in observance OF
Memorial day? The human heart is
deeply affected through honoring the
graves of loved ones and national
heroes.
OF such import is Memorial day in
the human scheme OF things that con.
gress, in 1874, designated May so for
it's observance, further declaring it to
be national holiday.
decoration Day" First.
Decoration day was the appellation
used for some years following Cen
eral Logan's well-known order, but to-
day it is nationally referred to as
Memorial day.
On that day the Grand Army of the
Republic has charge of the exercises
at Arlington.
To the sad Toll Of muffled drums the
remaining veterans of the nations
confiicts-World war, Spanish Ameri-
can and Civil wars-journey to the
vast area of graves and honor the
memory Of those "buddies" who have
passed on.

Unknown Dead
on Muster Rolls
of Past Conflicts

Mixed emotions, as women weep
audibly and men kneel in solemn rev.
erence and holy prayer, while we pay
tribute to our common 'buddy" be-
fore the tomb of the Unknown Soldier
at Arlington.
Amid chaplets of laurel and flowers,
the American flag serves as sentinel
over his sarcophagus. The burial Of
the lone World war veteran, Novem-
Der II, 1922, out Of respect to our
unknown soldiers is recalled.
An army bugler sounding FLAPS"
was the only one Of us he could hear.
Yet whole nation, in thought, If not
in actual presence, stood with bowed
heads and honored the memory of the
unknown men who have died that
the Republic might live.
1t is Memorial day, time Of solemn
requiem for the dead; particularly
the nations war dead.
Again our buddy" will hear the IA
miliar sound of the bugle. Let 1t be
understood, he is our composite bud
dy," for in reality he was only one of
the American soldiers killed "over
there" whose names and personal
histories were unknown.
He Is our national hero, Lee Poe
Hart writes, in the Washington Star.
He is especially the hero and son of
each mother and father of all the gal
liant warriors who still remain uniden-
tilted. To each of these proud and pa
triotic though grief-stricken parents,
he is known" Every one of us
"knows" our buddy, too.
Not Many unknown"
At the time he was given soldiers
last rites about 1000 were numbered
among the World war unknown dead.
The War department today reports
only 1862 remain unidentified.
In choosing the body that should
represent this national hero utmost
care was taken to pick out that Of a
buddy who could not by any possibil-
ity be identified. Thus the one who
lies in the sepulcher of the Unknown
Soldier could never have been recog-
nized.
Figures at the War department
show 3e,931 Americans were killed in
battle during the World war. With
only 1862 of that number now remain
ing unidentified, the proportion Of
unknown" dead is remarkably small.
Had It not been for the system in
stituted by the War department for
the purpose Of identifying men killed
in battle, the World war unknown
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1931-05-28

would have mounted to untold thou
sands. There was no such system
adopted during the Spanish-American
war. Only within recent years have
civilized nations established an eff
cient method of identifying their dead.
The War department regulations re-
quired every officer and soldier Of the
American Expeditionary forces to
wear about his neck two identified
tion tags of aluminium, stamped, in
the case of an officer, with his name,
rank and regiment, corps or depart
ment. On the tag Of every enlisted
man was inscribed his name and
serial number.
Disposition Of Tags.
Each tag was the size of silver
half dollar. The regulation stipulat-
ed that one tag be suspended from the
neck, and the other, a duplicate, be at
tached to the necklace by short
string or tape. In case the wearer
was killed. one tag was buried with
him, and the other was usually at
tached to the cross which marked his
grave.
A cemetery was established near
every battlefield, when practicable. A
temporary headboard giving the name
and rank of the inferred, with the or
ganization to which he belonged,
marked each grave. Further precau-
ton taken by the War department was
to make the company officer RESPONSE
BILE for the burial of his men. 1t was
his duty to show the exact location
of each grave with sketch map.
In the days of the internecine strife
between the North and South, the I'M
known killed made up large proper
ton of the total number who lost their
lives In battle. An official list of the
graves in few of the national ceme-
teries where Union soldiers who fell
in the Civil war are buried shows a
striking contrast to the modern sys-
ten.
In Southern Cemeteries.
At the Fredericksburg (Va.) GENE
terry, 1878 graves are marked "un-
known" the known dead amounting
to 2,465. An even greater proportion
of unidentified graves is the appalling
story of the cemetery at Salisbury. N
c.. where the unknown are 12,16S;
known, 1:S. The graveyard at Flor
ence, s. c., has 2,S02 unknown against
only 214 identified burials.
Those who know their American
history recall the furious fighting
along the Rappahannock river, which
Lees army chose as main line of
defense. The disproportion Of "un-
known" found in the cemeteries at
Salisbury and Fredericksburg prob
ably is explained through their being
the burial grounds for those who fell
in the Rappahannock fighting.
There were four great battles in the

"The Eyes of the Navy"

Previous to the World war the Unit
ed States navy had relied to q great
extent upon importation from abroad
for Its supply Of binoculars and spy
glasses. But the outbreak of the war
reduced that source of supply, and
when we got into it, the need for this
essential equipment was increased
manifold, especially with the develop
ment of the German U-boats and the
ravages of submarine warfare on al
lied shipping.
The numerous contributions of
sweaters, muff1ers and other articles
which added to the comfort of our men
at sea suggested to the navy the idea
of issuing patriotic call for the
much-needed glasses. So well-organ-
lied campaign was started. Posters
were distributed throughout the coun-
try, asking for eyes of the Navy" as
the slogan put it. The result was that
thousands of racing binoculars, night
glasses. oldfashioned telescopes and
spy glasses Of every description poured
In to the Navy department.
A total of $1,000 such "eyes' were
received before the navy sent out word
that it had enough. A careful record
of each glass received was made SO
that they could be returned after the
war. But it took II years Of effort to
do that, and even then it was not
fully accomplished. Last year the
Navy department discovered that it
still had on hand more than 1000 Of
these ''loans" which had not yet been
returned because the owners of them
could not be located. So the last chap
ter in the history of the ''eyes of the
navy" was written late last year when
697 pairs of binoculars, 295 telescopes
and 9 sextants were sold by sealed bid
and the lucky purchasers acquired in
teresting souvenirs of great patri-
otto enterprise which is all but forgot
ten.

forgive the bugler and
The Mess Sgt. and all those who wear
bars.
Lead us not into the Army of Occupa-
ton, but deliver us
From the fatigue squad,
And the M. P.'s, and the q. MS and
the Field Clerks
Forever and ever. All Oui!
