C (SpeciaL) Ac-3 cording to a report made to the United States Public Health Service, the epl demlc. of influenza in Spain hai al ready caused an increase in the preva lence and deaths from pulmonary tu berculosis. A similar association, be tween' influenza and tuberculosis was recently made by Sir Arthur Jews holme, the chief nodical officer of the English public health; service, 4in his analysis of the tuberculosis death rata in England. . In .order that the people of the Unit ! ed States may profit by the experience of other countries Surgeon General Rupert Blue-of the United States Pub lic. Health Service has just issued a warning' emphasizing the need of spe cial precautions at the present time. J "Experience seems to indicate, says the Surgeon General, "that persons whose resistance has been, weakened by an attack of influenza are peculiar ly susceptible to tuberculosis. With millions of its people recently affected .with influenza this country now of fers conditions favoring the spread of tuberculosis." . ...... One Million Consumptives In the United States. . "Then you consider this . a serious menace 7 was asked.' - "In my opinion It is, though X hasten to add it is dis tinctly one against which the people lean guard. - So far as one can estimate there. , are at present about one million cases of tuberculosis in the United States. There; Is unfortunately no complete census available to show ex actly the number of tuberculous per - sons in. each state despite the fact that most of the. states have made the dis ease reportable.- In New York city, where reporting has been In force for kxnany years, ever 35,000 cases of tn- , berculosia are registered with the De partment of Health.

If these ' i . 1 . - . - TT.I&.J States as a whole they would, indicate that about one in every hundred per sons Is tuberculous. Each of these constitutes a source of danger to be guarded against.' i What to Do. In his statement, to the public Sur geon General Blue points out now those who have had influenza should protect themselves against tuberculo sis. "All who have recovered from in fluenza,. says , the Sargeon General "should haye their lungs carefully-ex amined by a competent physician. In fact, it is desirable to have several ex aminations made a month apart. Such examinations cannot be made through the clothing nor can they be carried out in two or three minutes. If the lungs are found to be free from tuber culosis every effort should be made to keep them so. This can be done by right living, good food and plenty of fresh air." . ' . ' " danger Signs. The Burgeon uenerai warned espe cially against certain danger signs. such as "decline" and "colds which hang on.- ,. . These, he explained, were often the beginning of tuberculosis. "If you do not ' get well promptly, if your cold seems to hang on or your health and strength decline, remember .that these are often the early signs of tuberculo sis. Place yourself , at. once under the care of a competent physician. Tuber culosis is curable in the early stages. Patent Medicine Dangerous In Tuber. culosla.

' I f r 2Ut GREAT CANNON WILL BEMUSED FOR SOUVENIR French Would Place German "Big: Bertha m Place r de la Concorde VALUE SHORT LIVED Movement' on Foot to Have Government Request One of Deadly Weapons PARIS, Jan. 18. (Correspond ence of The Associated Press) The French people' want one of the Ger man MBIg-Berthaa" ior supercannon which bombarded Paris to display In the Place de la Concorde as a sou venir of German Rightfulness that failed of its purpose to destroy French morale. The armistice does not stipulate that one of these Instruments shall be surrendered but there is a move ment to urge the government to de mand it. There is no 1 expectation that the Germans will include one of these weapons among the 2,500 guns they" are required to give, up under the armistice. Facts obtained by military experts show that the first guns that fired upon Paris' on March ,23. last num bered three. They were installed near Mont-Joie, Jn the forest of Saint Gobain. . Two were on the same rail road spur leading- out of Laon while the third was a little further east In BREAKS A COLD IN - JUST A FEW HOURS ''Pane's Cold Com pound" ends grippe - misery DonT y- , : yj tuf fed-up r, Ton can end grippe and break up a severe cold either In head, .chest. body or limbs. by taking a dose ot "Pape's Cold Compound' every two Hours nntu three aoses are taken.

According to. the latest Informa tion, the guns were pointed at an angle . of more' than 65. degrees,, a charge of three hundred, pounds of powder propelling the projectile to a height of bne hundred thousand feet, (nearly 1. miles) on its mur derous mission to, Paris. With every shot ten or twelve marine guns of sixteen or seventeen-Inch calibre fir ed simultaneously upon targets un known in order, to conceal the loca tion of supercannon.. The shell. was of 210 millimetre calibre" (about eight inches). It weighed three hun dred pounds but. the 'charge of. ex plosive contained therein varied, be tween thirty and forty pounds.- In the manufacture of the shell re sided an innovation of the Germans. It is said to have been made of spec ial steel treated' with tungsten so-as to offer the maximum of resistance for a minimum of weight. The gun's only protecion was in camouflage and It proved to be no protection at all as allied aviators soon located them. There Is a report that several aviators. Americans. French, British, lost their lives in locating the first three Berthas in the forest of St. Gobain but upon that point officials are silent. However on March 27 one of the Berthas ' was blown up by an aerial torpedo which tore a hole in the ground more than. fifty feet in dlam eter, a photograph of which has been taken. - The second was put out of business In; the last days of April. while the! third of the original three was silenced in May. It is now-asserted that two,. pf, these guns were remodeled, into larger calibre, nlne-Inch, and, that these remodeled guns were the ones which resumed the shelling of Paris late in May last. Subsequently the Germans suc ceeded in utilizing larger ealibred guns for long distance firing) for. In August, they used a marine gun from near Soissons,- firing a 12 inch shell. They were preparing to sub ject Paris to an intensive bombard ment such as Dunkirk had to suffer when they were driven out of .their Soissons-Chateau Thierry line by the counter-offensive of the Allies. Commandant. Mlrbel. the military fexpert,. who organized . the Turkish artillery before the Germans assum ed charge of the military affairs of that country, told The Associated Press that the whole secret of the German long distance gun lay, In the invention of a special high explosive powder .which could only be used in guns constructed with a special steel of extraordinary resistlngjtower. The Germans had commenced the gener alization of the process and they were manufacturing several guns similar to their Soissons one but Marshal Foch's offensive deranged their plans. SGARLET RIDERS.
