8 SMOKES NEEDED MORE BY TROOPS THAN DAINTIES High British Official Says To bacco Is Highly Appre ciated in Trenches If we all could understand the real state of affairs "over there" In France and Belgium we would be ashamed that we are not doing more for those brave American lads now on the fir ing line and the hundreds of thou sands more who are to follow. Par ticularly when it is so easy to help. A cigaret, according to the men who have been there. Is the soldier's greatest Joy. Every quarter contri buted to our tobacco fund will make one soldier happy. Every quarter buys a 4 5-cent kit of tobacco and cigarets and each kit contains enough to last even the hardest smoker a week. Can't Get Too Much Tobacco Sir Edward Ward, director general of voluntary organizations In Eng land, who has had actual experiece in dealing with the soldiers' needs wrote recently to the promoters of a tobacco fund in that country as fol lows: "I ivant to appeal to you to continue and if possible, extend this branch of your work by providing even greater quantities of tobacco and cigarets for distribution to the troops. No lux urv is more appreciated by the sol diers than gifts of this nature." In some of the shops the men have started a very good plan. It is to contribute 25 cents each month to the tobacco fund as long as the war lasts. To others It is sjjggested that they follow the plan of Ellis Parker Butler, the famous short story writer. Every time Mr. Butler buys a smoke he sets aside one for a soldier. "If I spend a dime," he said, "my soldier gets a dime; if I spend a dollar for tobacco my soldier gets a dollar's worth. He's going to smoke every time I do." • Previously acknowledged ... $(170.03 John A. Runkle *SO | 9071.43 ! TRYTHIS JAPANESE CORN REMEDY COM* l.lttle II lit Doe* The Work Quickly. Xu Pain.

OF FINANCIERS Speaker Clark's Libel TwinS Kitchin's Speech, Says the Wall Street Journal A Wall Street man says: "I notice New York financial men are getting a little bit warm under the collar because Speaker Clark from Missouri denounces what he calls a ring of New York financiers' endeavoring to make a partial failure of the Gov ernment loan so that the next will bear a higher rate of interest. "I am glad Clark is thus calling attention to how that Solid South is j dodging on the Liberty Loan and de- I nouncing Wall Street, which means : Northern finance and investment brains. I wish somebody would dig up and put opposite Speaker Clark's libel the speech of Kitchin, of Caro lina who made our War Finance bill. He boasted in Congress that the South was making this tax a tax* on the North and said: 'lf you don't like it in the North, come down and live with us.' "The South is the real profiteer in this war. It is not paying taxes; it is dodging on its income tax; it is not subscribing to the loan; and is demanding that spot cotton shall be maintained at 30 cents. Yet, at the opening of the war the South was passing its hat, and asking support from the patriotism of the North. Indeed Mr. McAdoo was inviting, al most forcing, subscriptions to a one hundred million cotton fund to buy cotton at 10 cents a pound when It was selling in the markpt at 7 cents. "For my part, I want the position of Clark and Kitchin and 30-cent cotton advertised before the whole country. "The South is getting rich from the soldier encampments, high prices, and tax evasions, and yet we would not say anything. But, when It comes to adding insulting libels from Clark and Kitchin, the limit has been reached. Some day the Southerners will be turned out of power, and there will be an Investl- i gation of income tax dodging in the i South. "Man a businessman in the North has been paying: more annual income tax, before the war taxes came on, than all the citizens com bined in a sovereign utate of the youth. Sovereignty and state rights in the South now seem to be com bined to tax the enterprise of the North. It will be interesting to watch the next returns from the Sjouth and see what 30-cent cotton pays. "I want the people of the North to read the dastardly attacks that are made upon the Northern enterprise and savings that have made this country great Then I want an in vestigation to find out where the patriots are—whether they are from Missouri and Carolina, or from Wall Street. "Step over to the Morgan corner with me and I will show vou a fam ily record that I want Missouri and Georgia to match. There is not a partner in the House of Morgan that has a son left at home. Every one is in the war and those who have no sons have their brothers in the war. "You find Morgan walking in the Liberty Loan parade; Davison doing his groat Red Cross work at Wash ington—his son a cripple from avia tion service and his other son flying for his country with the most meri torious reports from his superiors, and which are never published! Did you_ read it in the press when Mor gan's son went into war service on the other side? "No, you don't read these things in the newspapers. You hear these Southern freebooters gloating over their 30-cent cotton and the tax they have levied on Northern indnstries, and then hissing at Wall Street men —the real investing North—as trait ors, when in Wall Street —the invest ing North—are the real men who are putting through the Government loan. "I am glad Speaker Clark has turned attention to the situation, and I hope the country will make the comparison between the loyalty of the North and the loyalty" of the South. The people of the North have not doubled the price of copper, while cotton has more than doubled; they are selling copper 5 cents below the market. At what price is cotton offered for Government khaki? The people of the North have voluntarily reduced the price of steel and all other metals, and the brains of the North and of Wall Street are being commandeered at Washington to work without salary or expenses for the Government.

S. ARMY IS MADE UP By Colonel Cornelis DeWitt Willcox, U. S. A. Part of nn nrtlrlr In Hnrper*a Magazine fop Novrmbrr. The work of the United States army, like any other work, calls for units adapted to he ends sought. The first of these is the captain's com mand. the company of infantry or of engineers, the battery of artillery, the troop of cavalry. Four companies make a battalion of infantry; two or more batteries a brigade or group (called battalion by us); and four troops a squadron. Each of these battalion units is In our service un der a major. The next command rnit is the regiment, whether of in fantry, engineers, cavalry, or artil lery, composed of three battalions of infantry—of a variable number In the engineers,' of two or more bat talions of artillery, and of three squadrons of cavalry—and com manded by a colonel. Two or three regiments (generally two to-day) go to make the brigade, whether of in fantry. artillery or cavalry. Passing to higher groupings, two brigades made a division of infantry, or of cavalry (there is no artillery divi sion), and two divisions (infantry or cavalry) make a corps or army corps. A brigade with us is commanded by a brigadier-general, a division by a major-general. The higher grades of general officer—namely, lieuten ant-general and general—r dor mant, because they are usually be stowed to reward the two or three commahders of successful armies, or, rather, groups of armies during or after war. Any combination of army corps makes an army, technically so called. In theory the ternary plan is per haps the best, in which three units, beginning with the battalion, go to make the next higher, but it has not been generally adopted. We have now but to fix the numerical strength of the company in order to arrive at that of all the higher units the strength of any army, as defined above, is, of course, arbitrary, be cause it depends upon the number of corps assembled under one and the same commander. We have, there fore, beginning with the company of 250 men. battalions of 1,000, regi ments of 3,000, brigades of 6,000, divisions of 12,000, and corps of 24,- 000 Infantry. The Coming of Aviation The brigade of infantry is the largest unit composed exclusively of troops of that arm: the infantry di vision, however, contains the other arms in addition, such as field ar tillery, cavalry, engineers, in suffi cient number to bring up its strength, in round numbers, to 20,000. The army corps, therefore, a miniature army in itself, totals about 40,000 men, and in the war of movement constitutes the fundamental strategic unit. It was by armies composed sub stantially of the elements just men tioned—field armies assisted by avi ation—that the opening campaigns in 1914 were made. The classic Idea held full sway—infantry armed with the rifle and bayonet, cavalry wait ing for its opportunity, artillery, on one side at least, chiefly of the field type. The airmen had come, how ever, and weer taking a hand, and motor transportation, as had been anticipated, was employed from the first. But these two novelties, to call them such, made no fundamental change in the relation of the three arms nor in the character of the actual conflict. That change was to come when the race to the sea had ended in a dead heat, when the two armies first stood face to face on a flankless line. Thus the corps still exists, but, robbed as It is of tts strategic value by its enforced im mobility, it has lost importance; it csee RADWAY'S READY RELIEF Will gire all a dunce to buy the genuine rather Etnn some Inferior article, USED AS A LINIMENT "STOPS PAIN" INSTANTLY I It Does Not Blister For Rheumatism, Neuralgia.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH Is more to the point to reckon in divisions. The division, It would ap pear, is a better unit under trench conditions. A corps, InCced, may now included all the divisions, even more than three, the greatest num ber ever contemplated before 1914) that hold a given section of the front. In sieges, and we may regard the western front as an elongated siege, only three arms directly count—the engineers to mine and trench, the artillery to break down the defenses and silence the enemy flre, the in fantry to assault enemy trenches and breaches when opened. In re spect of the artillery, each side sim ply gets up as many guns as possible. It is said that on the lines of the western front there Is an artillery man for every two infantrymen; in short, the artillery has ceased to be an auxiliary arm and has become the head of the corner. The distinction between siege guns, mortars, fortress, naval and seacoast guns, widely differentiated classes five years ago, is wholly broken down, in that all of the3e guns, of no matter what caliber and class, are used with the army in the field. Only two classes need be recognized now—field guns and heavy guns. The artillery strength of- an army now includes the heaviest calibers where recently only field types were taken into account. Some of the \cw Weapons Almost equally radical has been the change of infantry conditions; It can be stated In one short sentence. In trenh warfare the magazine rifle is almost a thing of the past. Its place has been taken by trench weapons, by trench artillery, by the hand grenade, the rifle grenade—the gren adier has come into his own again. If rifle fire is needed, the automatic rifle, the machine gun, worked by one man, can deliver it far more ef fectively than can one hundred In fantrymen, each firing his own piece. Hence bomb-throwers, automatic riflemen, machine gunners, now form the important elements of Infantry units. The cavalry has apparently disap peared from the conflict; the horse and the trench simply do not fit. Jt wer.e a grave error, however, to as sume that this great arm is done for. If open warfare is ever resumed, the cavalry will again have Its day in court, but with a changed armament. It will in all probability be armed with the bayonet, will carry gren ades, and a greatly Increased num ber of cartridges per man, will em ploy a larger number of machine gun sections, will be equipped with automatic rifles, auto-cannon, and auto-machine guns. All the changes herein discussed may be regarded as the result, in their respective spheres, of the doc trine held by the German general staff as to how war should be made. This doctrine imposes a certain pro cedure, materialized, if necessary, by trench work, in which the trenches shall be suitably covered: in the ac tual case, by barbed-wire entangle ments animated by machine guns. The extension of these entangle ments and the enormous use made of machine guns constitute, with avia tion, the great features of modern warfare. Rarbed wire will stop anything; if a body of troops, caught in it, can be taken under fire by ma chine guns, it ceases to exist. Hence, comes, in part, the development of artillery, to breach the entangle ments so that infantry may get through. And It is pertinent to rec ollect that the entire front from the North Sea to the Swiss frontier may be regarded, without any exaggera- How many men are there in a Company? What troops does a Major command? How can you tell a Colonel from a Major-Gen eral? What are our soldiers paid? Answers to these and all ques tions relating to the U. S. Army are made by Colonel Willcox, of West Point, in an article appear ing in the November number of Harper's Magazine. Even dur ing the last two months the size of the varous units, the pay of the soldiers and many other things have been changed. This is the first authoritative state ment of the organization of ous army. tion, as a continuous battery, served by air squadrons told oft for artillery work alone. When Mr. Root was Secretary of War he did two notable things for the Army. The first of these was to increase its size fourfold. Although this merely added numbers to the ex isting strength, increased the num ber of regiments, it was, nevertha* less, a conspicuous achievement. Con spicuous as It was, however, it fell short of his second achievement; he created a general staff. For the first time In Its history the army was statutorily endowed with a body of officers empowered to labor continu ously upon questions of policy and organization affecting not merely its own small self, but the far greater matter of the nation's military re sources and their conversion Into available form when needed. The National Guard The so-called national defense act of 1916 provided for a material in crease of the Army, to be made in five yearly Increments, and estab lished ways and means of federaliz ing the National Guard and of giv ing the general Government better control of this element of the na tional defense. This act, with the draft enactment approved May 18, 1917, constitutes the basis of our present military establishment. Under these twp acts, when war broke out, the four remaining Incre ments of the Regular Army were an ticipated, and that branch of the executive brought up to a war strength of 300,000. By this step the Infantry of the Regular Army was Increased from thirty regiments to sixty-four; the field artillery from six to twenty-one; the cavalry from fifteen to twenty-five. The coast ar tillery was practically doubled, and the engineers got seven regiments, where before they had had none. Corresponding additions were made to the various staff corps. The Na tional Guard, over 400,000 men, was taken into the military service of the ynited States, and the drafting of a third force of 600,000 enlisted men with necessary officers was author ized, and later carried out. The Army of the United States, therefore, to-day consists, respectively, of the Regular Army, the National Guard, and the drafted men, known as the National Army; three different ele ments of different degrees of train ing, but all are organized andoffl cered in the same manner, and, so far as experience is concerned, all new to the business of war as now conducted. Now let us see what organization has been officially adopted. The smallest unit of infantry is the company of '2 50 men, with two captains, one first and three second lieutenants, six officers, instead of three ,as heretofore. If the first cap tain should or wounded, his place is taken by the second, held in reserve for that reason. Each lieutenant commands a platoon. From all accounts, trench combat is what may be called close work, and this kind of work is essentially the affair of sub-units, especially trained for the particular object in view at a given moment. The organization of the company is made to fit the work. Accordingly, each company has a headquarters (two officers and eighteen men), and each of its four platoons includes one headquarters, (two officers and men); one section of bombers and rifle grenadiers (twen ty-two officers and men), two sec tions of riflemen (twenty-four officers and men), one section of automatic riflemen (four guns, eleven officers and men); in all, fifty-nine officers and men. The small number of rifle men proper at once attracts the at tention—that is, of men whose prin cipal weapon Is the regulation rifle. Bombers throw the hand grenade; rifle grenadiers use the rifle grenade. This is a grenade connected by a suitable contrivance with the muz zle of the ordinary rifle, from which It is then fired. A part of the equip ment consists of the so-called "trench knives." At first sight it seems horrlblo to use this weapon, and it is horrible, but no more so, really, then to run a man through with a bayonet, which we all accept as a matter of course. But the bayo net, fixed to Its rifle, is not so handy a weapon in trenches, in a melee, as the trench knife. How Units Are Made Up Four companies form a battalion, and the three battalions bring the number up to 3,000. To these must be added the machine-gun company, the supply company, the headquar ters troops, so that our infantry regiment is brought up to over 3,700 men, as follows: No. Units of Men Headquarters and headquarters company 303 3 battalions of 4 companies each 3,078 1 supply company 140 I machine-gun company 178 I medical detachment 56 Total 3,755 Two regiments form the brigade and two brigades the division. The division Is organized as follows: No. Units of Men I division headquarters 164 1 machine-gun battalion of 4 companies 768 2 infantry brigades of 2 regi ments and 1 machine-gun battalion (three companies) each) 16,420 1. field artillery brigade of 3 regiments and trench-mor tar battery 5,068 1 engineer regiment 1,666 1 field signal battalion 262 1 train headquarters and mili tary police 337 1 ammunition train 962 1 supply train 472 1 engineer train 84 1 sanitary train of 4 field companies and 4 ambulance companies 949 Total 27,152 Two things should be remarked in this organization: the absence of cav alry, for reasons already made plain, and the great Increase in the artil lery strength. Since the front lines of opposing trenches lie close to each other, and are so deep that they cov er their occupants against any form of small-arm fire, the trench mortar bus been devised (as the grenade has been resurrected) to launch a pro jectile that will clear one's own para pet, rise In the air and fall into the enemy trench. Trench artillery constitutes a class apart. Equally worthy of notice Is the number of machine guns; of these, each divi sion will have 416. Each army corps consists normal ly of one corps headquarters, three infantry divisions, and army corps troops. The composition of these latter is not announced, but they in clude artillery, engineers, sanitary and signal troops, etc., over and above those normally Included in the division, and are used by the corps commander as circumstances may demand. Lastly, each army will consist nor mally of one army corps and army troops. Each general officer in command of troops has a staff. That of the brigadier-general Is modest —two aids-de-camp, lieutenants (personal staff), and a brigade adjutant, cap tain. The brigade has no adminis trative afToctlons; these begin with the division. The division staff, therefore. Includes the officers, here after not to be above the grade of major, in charge of the various de partments concerning the welfare and supply of the men. The com position of the division corps and army staffs has not. yet been an nounced by the War Department, but probably will Include, besides the chief of staff, adjutant-general and lnspector-genral, officers In charge of quartermaster .artillery, engineer, ordnance, signal, medical and legal duties. These officers in the corps will have the rank of lieutenant colonel; in an army, that of colonel. Insignia of the Officers It may not bo amiss to give here the insignia of the various grades of officers in our service. Second lieu enants wear no Insignia of rank; they have a "clean" shoulder strap and many years in which to fill it with the marks of the successive grades. These are: for a first lieu tenant, one silver bar, and' for a captain, two silver bars; for a ma jor, a gold; for a lieutenant-colonel, a silver oak leaf; for a colonel, a sliver eagle. Generals wear stars— a brigadier one, a major-general tw"o, a lieutenant-general three, a full general two and the coat-of-arms of the United States. These marks are carried on the shoulder straps. On full dress and overcoat sleeves, grades are Indicated by an ornament al knot of black braid, beginning with a single braid for a first lieu tenant; each promotion adds a braid through the rank of colonel. Gen erals have two bands of black mo hair on their overcoats and on full dress coat, a band of gold oak leaves, surmounted by one or two stars (brigadier and major-general). In field dress (coat) the only marks are those worn on the shoulder, and an olive drab band around the cuff, the same for all grades; in the gen eral staff this band is black. The various branches of the Army are distinguished by certain Insignia, worn on the collar. Thus the in fantry, the cavalry and the artillery wear crbssed rifles, sabers and can non respectively, the engineers, a sil ver castle; the ordnance, a shell and flame; the quartermaster corps, a sword and key crossed on a wheel; the medical corps, a caduceus; the signal corps, crossed flags; the adju tant-general's department, a shield; the inspector-general's department, a and fasces crossed on wreath; the judge advocate-general's depart ment, a sword and pen crossed on a wreath. Chaplains wear a Latin cross. Grades and pay go together. A second lieutenant receives yearly $1,700; a first, $2,000. Captains, ma jors, lieutenant-colonels and colonels draw, respectively, $2,400; $3,000, $3,500 and $4,000. This is the-4ni tial or base pay; it Is increased 10 per cent, for every five years of service, up to 40 per cent.; this In crease is known in the Army as a "fogy." Lieutenant-colonels and colonels, however, stop at $4,500 and $5,000, respectively. The pay of a brigadier is $6,000, that of a major general SB,OOO, Generals get no "fogys." Officers receive, besides, quarters, fuel and light. The pay of enlisted men depends on their grades, ratings and length of service; it is too complicated to set out at length here. A private, however, gets a base pay of sls a month; a corporal, s2l or $24; a sergeant, S3O or $36; first sergeapts, $45 —all with increases for length of service. In addition, be it said, all non-commis sioned officers and men draw cloth ing, and, of course, are fed.' These rates have been materially increased during the present emergency. "Commencing June first, nineteen hundred and seventeen, and contin uing until the termination of the emergency, all enlisted men of the Army of the United States in active service whose base pay does not exceed s2l per month shall receiv an increase of sls per month; those whose base pay is $24, an increase of sl2 per month; those whose base pay is S3O, $36 or S4O, an Increase of $8 per month, and those whose base pay is $45 or more, an increase of $G per month." The President Commands The President, constitutional com mander-in-chief, is directly repre sented by the Secretary of War, whe Is with us, normally, a civilian. His assistant is the chief of staff, who has under his orders the general staff. The adjutant-general has charge of records, of recruiting and of personnel; t-11 correspondence in tended for the War Department passes through his hands. Orders are Issued by the Secretary of War and signed by the chief of staff; they are made "official" by the adjutant- The Inspector-general ex tends his inquiry into "every branch of military affairs, except when spe cially limited in (Army) regulations GfRLS!

All these corps and departments' are represented with troop units in peace and in war. To the foregoing must be added the Coast Artillery Corps, which is not a "department" as are the others, but a purely combatant body of men, represented in the War Department by its chief, who is ex-oflicio a mem ber of the General Staff. This corps Is not usually counted as a part of the "mobile" army, meaning by that term troops that can form regi ments, brigades, etc., for field serv ice. Its special duty is the gun and mine defense of our principal har bors. Over all branches of military ac tivity the aeronautical branch of the Army literally spreads Its wings. An army not provided with air serv ice is beaten before It has fired a single shot. It may not even get to a point where a shot could be ■usefully tired. This particular branch of armed energy. Intrusted as already said to the Signal Corps, is in process of development. We must have spotting planes, else our artillery fire were vain; combat planes, else our spotters and pho tographers may not be able to work; reconnaissance planes, else the ene my may spring a surprise on us. Aviation has dissipated the "fog of war;" no longer is a general re quired to guess what "is on the other side of the hill."

Travelers to England and France report that practically every able-bodied man is In uniform and women by the thousands are en gaged in doing men's work —acting as conductors and drivers on the cars and doing all sorts of heavy work besides.

I Eckman Laboratory. Philadelphia, I IS IT A CURE ■ FOR ASTHMA Simple Prescription Given InHtnnt Relief, Makes Ilrenthlng easy. In New England, where Asthma. Bronchitis and other diseases o the throat and lungs are so prevalent, remarkably successful results are be ing reported following the use of a new form of treatment known as Ox idaze, a physician's prescription. Oxidaze is a harmless hut powerful combination of curative agents con centrated and compressed into a small tablet. One of these tablets slowly dissolved in the mouth before going to bed seems to have the ef fect of releasing the muscular con striction of the bronchial tubes, op ening up the air passages and regu lating spasmodic lung action. This enables the patient to breathe easiiv and naturally while lying down and to get a comfortable night's sleep. * So much interest has been shown that local druggists, including Geo. A. Gorgas have secured a small sup ply and state that they are author ized to refund the money paid for the first package if In any case this new treatment fails to give relief. Oxidaze is pleasant to take, contains no harmful, habit forming drugs and is not expensive. This makes their test an easy matter. TO RELIEVE CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND HEAD NOISES If you have Catarrhal Deafness or head noises go to your druggist and get 1 ounce of Parmint (double strength), and add to It Vi pint of hot water and 4 ounces of granulated sugar. Take one tablespoonful four times a day. This will often bring quick relief from the distressing head noises. Clogged nostrils should open, breath ing become easy and the mucus stop dropping Into the throat. It is easy to prepare, costs little and is pleasant to take. Any one who has Catarrhal Deafness or head noises should give this prescription a trial.—Adv.
