THE. MORNING OHECONIAN, TTTURSDAT, rEBKUARY G, 1919. DEMOBILIZATION NAVY IS EXPEDITED Considerable Portion of Varl ous Branches Released. HUGE FORCE STILL NEEDED Manning of targe Vessels to Be XTsed as Troop Transports Calls for Many Men. WASHINGTON, Feb. 5. Kear-Ad-jmiral Victor Blue, chief of the bureau of navigation, wrote Chairman Pad gett, of the House naval committee, today that the Navy Department had directed to date the release of 40 per cent of the reserves, 40 per cent of the men who enlisted for the war only, and 20 per cent of the men who, since the beginning of the war, had enlisted for the regular four-year period. Admiral Blue said that In addition order had been given durinjr the last few days to discharge 20,000 men of the reserve and those enlisted for the war, who are now performing shore-duties, and also all men of these classes at training ; camps and trade schools who desire their release. Certain Clauses Preferred. Commanding officers of ships and stations have been directed. Admiral Blue said, to give preference in mak ing releases to men with dependent families and men desiring to complete their education. He explained that if the number of applicants exceeded the number of men the Navy could spare, discharges would be decided by lot. The Admiral wrote that the bureau was very desirous of completing the demobilization of the Navy personnel as quickly as possible, but that it soon would have to place in commission some 38 to 40 large vessels to be used as transports in bringing home, troops from France, and that in addition a number of ships for cargo purposes had to be manned. Activities of the Navy could not be interfered with, he fcaid, and provision also must be made for activities in prospect. TfaTj's Need Are Great. Admiral Blue estimated that by February 20 half of the remaining personnel on shore would have been discharged. Between that date and March 1, he said, detailed statements would be obtained from all stations fo as to determine how many more men could be released and etill enable the bureau to meet the Navy's needs. iew eiiu&LiiitiiiLs i unit iTta.y .iiuw are at the rate or about 1600 a week, the Admiral said, but he added that the full effect or new enlistments on demobilization plans would not be felt for several months, as the new men would have to be trained before they could be sent to ships."

GERMAN REDS DIE HARD HAMBURG AND BREMEN" YET CENTERS OF AGITATION'. Government's Efforts to Establish a Firm Government and Plan Policy Badly Hampered. (Copyright. 1!1!, by the New York World. Published by Arrangement.) BERLIN, Feb. 4, via Copenhagen, Feb. 5. (Special cable.) The Soldiers' and Workmen's Councils seeing that their power will be eclipsed in a few days by the National Assembly, if they cannot wreck it somehow, are dying even harder than I expected. Hamburg and Bremen are still centers of their agitation and a revolutionary committee has been appointed at Bremen, but Bolshevik sentiment exista wherever the Reds exist. This city is full of rumors of new attempts at a coup d'etat by the Reds, and this time they have with them many more Independent Socialists than before. The Reds stood aside when the Spartacus government was beaten, bu. as they see their influence almost gone, they are making desperate efforts to retain the Soviet idea, also to hold on to their jobs. The struggle is becoming serious at Bremen and the Soviet is openly for a Bolshevik government. Germany, having reached the point where a constitutional assembly is to convene, is not likely to let disgruntled soldiers ruin its democracy. But the sit uation in Germany could scarcely be better shown than by the fact that the government feels called upon to gar rison Weimar with troops of whosi loyalty they are certain. The struggle against democracy and in favor of the Socialist Soviet is sufficiently strong to give the govern ment serious concern at a moment when it ought to be free to develop i constructive programme to lay before its constituents.

IRIFLE STRENGTH OF POWERS CONTRASTED Figures Show Germany's De feat Inevitable. AMERICAN AID EFFECTIVE Huns, Strong and Hopeful in April of Last Year, See Last Hope Gone on November 1. WASHINGTON. Feb. 5. The story of Germany's supreme effort for military victory In the Spring of 1918, of Amer ican intervention on the western front and of the ultimate crushing defeat of the enemy and the apparent annihila tion of nearly one-half of his fighting force was graphically told in figures made public today by the War Depart ment. They dealt with the "rifle strength" of the allies and the German forces on the western front in monthly periods from April 1 to November 1 and were prepared by the intelligence di vision of the general staff of the Amer ican Army in France. By rifle strength was meant the num ber of men standing in the trench ready to go over with the bayonet. When Ger many struck its great blow last Spring it had a million and a half men so clas sified against an allied total of a mil lion and a quarter. By June 1 the Ger mans reached their peak, with 1,639, 000 rifles, but despite the terrific pres sure they were exerting against the allied lines. American aid was over coming the handicap and made possible the counter blow delivered in July. American Contribution Helps. The allied strength on June 1 was 1.496,000. Shortly. afterward the allies reached a total of 1.547,000, composed of 778,000, 515.000 British and 204.000 Americans. America's contribution had risen from 65.000 in April. On July 1 Germany's power had begun to wane, and for the first time it was definitely inferior in rifle strength, with 1.4L2. 000, compared to 1,556,000 for' the al lies. Up to September 1 the allied strength continued to gain despite the desperate counter-attack which was being driven forward all along the line. In rnid-October the American strength had risen to an estimated force of 350,000. On September 1 the allied line was at its greatest strength with 1,682,000, against Germany's 1.339. 000. While the allies had shrunk in rifles to 1,45,000 on November 1, Germany's last hope was gone, as she faced that army with only 866,000 bayonets. German Reserves laetl Up. The sudden decline of the German forces beginning in June and again apparent in the swift drop during Oc tober was accounted for by the fact that she had drawn into the lines dur ing the Spring every available reserve. expecting to smash her way to victory before Winter came. These reserves were used up in the German attack and the allied assaults which followed, while the American force continued to increase. In a rough way the American rifle strength has represented about 20 per cent of the total American force in France continuously. This accounts for the fact that with a total of more than 2.000.000 men in France on No vember 11, the rifle strength in Oc tober was estimated at around 350,000 men. A similar situation was shown In staff reports as to the total allied strength, reckoned as "ration strength," which was continuously greater than that of the German army throughout the Spring and Summer last year. figures do not include Americans in training in France.

Definite evi dences of the beginning of financial recuperation following abnormal war conditions were set forth today by the r ederal Reserve Board in a, review of the forthcoming February reserve bul letin. These evidences are: Increase of bank balances at finan cial centers: a tendency toward lower rates for money; lessening of the amount of the war paper held by Fed eral Reserve and member banks: in flow of gold coin and gold certificates at banks, indicating greater confidence in the financial situation and lessened demand for money: decline In the vol ume of Federal Reserve notes out standing, demonstrating the elasticity of the Federal Reserve system. The board deplored evidences of re laxation of war-time economies, say ing that industries of the United States and other countries soon would need quantities of capital and that it behooves Americans to continue to be thrifty and pile up reserves of credit. "Return of active production and consumption is being retarded." the board observed,' "by high expenses of production." FOOD HEADS M. ACCUSED FEDERAL POLICY MOULDED BY PACKERS, IS CHARGE. Letters Indicate That President De clined to Interfere In Trade Commission Inquiry. WASHINGTON. Feb. 5. Edward C. Lasater. of the National Livestock As sociation's executive committee, charged before the House interstate commerce committee today that the policies of the Food Administration were deter mined by the five big packing concerns and carried out by employes of the packers serving the Government for SI a year. Mr. Lasater formerly was chief of the Administration's livestock and meat division and this was his third day on the stand at hearings before the committee on legislation for Govern- ment regulation of the meat Industry. Before the Senate agriculture com mittee today, letters were read disclos ing that President Wilson last Feb ruary declined after a personal inquiry to . interfere with the Federal Trade Commission's investigation of the pack ing industry. The President had been appealed to by officials of the big packing companies, who asserted that the commission was not conducting a fair inquiry. In testifying before the House com mittee, Mr. Lasater said that when Herbert C. Hoover first was appointed Food Administrator he had told the witness that he would not invite a single packer to "sit at his council table because they had a reputation that stunk to heaven." "But such influence was brought to bear on him," said the witness, "that he chose to disregard their odor. With in three weeks he had arranged to have the packers take sole charge of the meat end of the industry." Henry Veeder. counsel for Swift & Co., was witness today before the Senate committee. He read letters and telegrams relating to the unsuccessful efforts of the packing companies to bring about a change In the Federal Trade Commission's method of conduct ing its inquiry.

Dr. James Francis Sullivan, for merly physician of Bellevue Ho s p I t a 1 (Outdoor Dept.), New ork, and t he Weatches ter County Hos 4ital.eaid : "Lark of iron in the blood not only makes a man a physical and mental weak line, n e r v ous. irritable, easily fatigued, but it utterly rob? htm of that virile force, that starn nla and strength of will which are so necessary to success and power in every ..IL. nf life It may also transform a. beautiful, sweet-tempered woman into one who is cross, nervous and irritable. I have strongly emphasized the great neces sity of physicians making blood exam inations of their weak, anaemic, run down patients. Thousands of persons go on year after year suffering from physical weakness and a highly ner vous condition due to lack of suffi cient iron in their red blood corpuscles without ever realizing the real and true cause of their trouble. Without iron in your blood your food merely passes through the body something like corn through an old mill with rollers so wide apart that the mill can't grind. Kor want of iron you may be an old man at thirty, dull of intellect, poor in memory, nervous, irritable and all "run down." while at 50 or 60 with plenty of Iron in your blood you may still he young in feeling, full of life, your whole being brimming over with vim and energy."
