FIRST USE OF GAS IN WAR
DsvasUUd Europe Will Look to
United States to Help
Rebuild.
New York.—Jobs tor all will be bad
for the asking in the period of the
world's reconstruction. There’s to be
no slump In the demand for labor.
It has been estimated that no fewer
than 10,000,000 men have been killed
In Europe. TheeUnlted States, which
has not lost 15,000 men, must make
good this huge labor loss.
Devastated Europe will look to the
United States for help to rebuild. We
must finance this big job and supply
the materials and tools.
According to M. Tardleu, French
high commissioner. It will take two
years to get the French coal mines In
working order and ten yenrs to put
them In prewar condition. To recon*
struct private homes alone will re*
quire the work of 100,000 men for 20
yenrs.
Prof. Van den Ven of Louvain, now
in the United Stntes, says the war
losses of Belgium total approximately
$4,000,000,000. Before the drive more
than 45,000 buildings had been de
stroyed. Practically all the Important
factories have been robbed of their
machinery, and, in many cases, not
only the walls razed but the very foun
dations destroyed.
The machinery was shipped to Ger
many^ Towns and villages have been
wrecked. Farms have been robbed of
all live stock. Miles of lnterorban
railroads hnve been torn up and
shipped to Germany.
The problem Is first to keep alive
the population released by Germany;
second, to reconstruct the industrial
machine eo the people can make a
living.
England also will want food, manu
factured goods, raw material and ma
chinery In great quantities. So will
Italy and the Scandinavian countries.
George K. Roberts of the Netlona!
City bank maintains that the United
States wtll psss out of the war period
with more wealth than ehe possessed
before the conflict began. There has
been much ecientlflc development of
Industry, and agriculture has been
stimulated as never before.
There la ao obstacle, be thinks,
to a continuance of business activity
except the difficulty of readjusting
business to a peace basis. This obsta
cle is great bnt surmountable.

proaches.
Paris.—Vast quantities of food
products must come to France this
winter. All eyes are on America.
Abnormal drought last summer seri
ously injured the French harvest. A
warning has been Issued that further
sacrifices, more stringent food restric
tions, may have to be Imposed.
France, facing the winter, is looking
to America to feed Its people. Approx
imately 100,000,000 bushels of wheat
are needed for daily brC&d rations.
“The economic situation is alarm
ing,’’ said M. Gomot, a French senator
from the Puy de Dome region. “All
the harvests have been brought In and
we are In a position to measure our
needs.
“Production this year has been sadly
deficient. Despite our expectations last
spring of bumper crops, the deplorable
dry weather has ruined many rich agri
cultural districts of France.
‘There has been almost no fruit.
Vegetables are few. Cereals are poor.
Potato crops, on whljh we based our
hopes last year, are 50 per cent less
than in 1917.
“Only the wheat crops have given
any satisfaction at all. There has
been some Improvement In them,
thanks to the awakening of the agri
cultural movement in the abandoned
regions.
“But If our dally bread rations are
to continue throughout the winter we
must obtain—somehow, somewhere—
an additional thirty or forty .million
hectoliters (between 82,000,000 and
110,000,000 bushels) of wheat.
“The outlook is not bright Some
thing must be done. Something will be
done. The people of France must takd
the Initiative. They must be willing
to make more sacrifices. They must
not be afraid of further and stricter
restrictions.''

rowing a few minutes, felt that bis

The earliest use of deleterious gases
In siege warfure is recorded In the his
tory of the Peloponnesian wars from
431 404 B. C. During this struggle
between the Athenians and Spartans
and their respective allies the cities of
Palatea and Dellum were besieged.
Wood saturated with pitch and sul*
phur was set on fire and burned under
the wnfls of these cities In order to
generate choking and poisonous fumes,
which would stupefy the defenders
nnd make the task of attacking forces
less difficult. Another form of the
same method of attack used about this
date was to fill a caldron with molten
pitch, sulphur and burning charcoal,
and to blow the fumes with the aid of
a primitive form of bellows and air-
blast over the defenders' lines.

heard in the wars of the middle ages,

With the British Army in France.—
Airplanes can be used for capturing
Infantry. It was proved by the Brit
ish In the recent ndvance.
Flying fairly low, seeking parties
of Germans or war material to bomb,
two officers In one machine were fired
upon from a sunken road. The pilot
dived nnd the alrplnne machine quick
ly accounted for four Germans. Very
quickly the Germans hoisted a white
flag Jo token of surrender.
The airmen were In a dilemma, ns
there was no British Infantry In the
vicinity. They descended to 50 feet,
however, and ordered the Germans out
of the road—65 of them In all. They
obeyed. Then rounding up the party,
the airmen directed them toward the
British lines. They circled over them
with the ever-menacing bombs and
machine guns until they encountered a
party of British, who took the entire
lot to a prisoners' cage.

— Breaking Class Barrier*
If classes already mingle more free
ly than they could do forty years ago,
It Is largely because the elements of
education are common to all, and the
door has thus been opened to the able
and ambitious to educate themselves.
But If the normal course were much of
a muchness for all classes till the end
of adolescence there would be an edu
cated community wherein certain gen
eral standards would be as common a
possession as reading and writing are
at the present time, and In such a com
munity class distinction coulJ only
lake a secondary place. General
education Is, In fact, the most per
vasive and the beat of democratic
agencies, hecuuse It levels all up and
pulls nothing down. That lu its con
