The best description I've seen of it was written in lyric form for an Knglish language publication at Hio de Janeiro. The versifier be gan: "This is the war to the very knife. "Mankind against the trees, "Which, without sound of drum of life, "in silent ranks of floral life. "Cling to the ground they seize." Not much as poetry, perhaps, but it tells the Story.

"This treatment of the economic proposal for farm relief discloses i (he dangerous trend in the legisla tion of tin; day." the Ohio sena tor asserted. "Jt shows the lee of modern thinking.

This would increase by one-third the amount of ammuni tion that ran be provided In front lines for the gun without uny increase In weight. J. D. Pcderson , Inventor und production engineer, has been cm ployed lor some time at Spring field armory to turn out the new gun, and war department reports already show important advant ages claimed for the weapon as compared to the two types of stan dard -HO caliber shoulder auto matics with which the experts are also experimenting. The new gun is u .'-'7'i caliber as compared to the ,at) service ammunition stand ard. The praot ical disadvantages of adding a new caliber of iimniiml lion to the lupply line burdens ire fully realized, and may ultimately prevent adoption of the seven-millimeter gun.
