WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, March 8. —Carbon monozide
gas has caused deaths among patients
being transported with in the closed
bodies of some American made ambu
lances equipped with exhaust gas
heaters, it is announced. AU precau
tions now have been taken to insure
these vehicles being safe in the future.
Investigation disclosed the presence
of gas in lethal quantities within
ambulances, it having passed througa
highly heated iron parts and leaks
in exhaust pipes. Poor ventilation
was responsible for the gas remaining
in the closed bodies.
Orders now have been issued for
the boring of one inch holes at three
inch intervals in a double row through
the woden front of all vehicles being
used by the American expeditionary
forces. Similar holes will be made
in the tailboards. All exhause heat
ers in the future will be carefully in
spected ut-der operating conditions and
repairs immediately made upon those
found even slightly defective.
All ambulance drivers and ordelies
have been ordered to investigate the
condition of all passengers within the?
cars at five minute intervals. This
will be done by requiring an answer
to an interrogation. Particular atten
tion w’ill We paid to the condition of
patients when ambulances are at a

GERMAN MIS TWICE
IS SEINE IS BEFORE
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, March
8. —“If it is true to say that our in
dustry is twice as rich as it was be
fore the war, it is equally true that
our big banks are twice as strong.”
Thus commences the year’s review of
German banking position in the Frank
furter Zeitung, the leading organ of
German high finance.
According to the reviewer, 1917 was
a year of amalgamations and exten
sions in the German banking world.
Many small private banks have been
absorbed by their bigger brethren and
the latter have branched out in the
allied countries and the occupied terri
tories.
There was an enormous increase in
the number of new companies organiz
ed and of new stock issues, according
to the Berliner Tageblatt. One of the
largest stock increases noted is that
of the German Aniline Combine.
