Washington One of the most in
teresting exhibits of the thousands
in the world war collection now be
ing gathered at "the National mu
seum is the "Order of Battle" map
used, by General Pershing in direct
ing the movements of the American
forces in , France. The wall map,
eight by ten feet in size, together
with the walls, floor and furniture
of the room in which it hung at
American headquarters at Chau
mont, was transferred to the museum
by the war department at the re
quest of the general.
The map was brought to Wash
ington and installed in the museum
by the sergeant and three enlisted
men of the headquarters staff who
kept it corrected and guarded it
throughout the war. At Chaumont,
the map, when not in use, was con
cealed by a sliding section of wall
which is installed in the same manner
in the museum.
The map shows in a vivid fashion
the exact situation at the hour the
armstice was signed with reference
to the strength and location of all di
visions, both enemy and allied, n
the western front, the correct battle
tie line, the names and location of
commanding officers and locations
of headquarters and army boundar
ies. There also is a considerable
amount of detailed information re-.
garumg me American divsions, as
for instance, the percentage of fresh
and tired troops and the -length of
time the various units had been in
the line or in reserve.
The war collecton has already' as
sumed such proportions as to make
necessary some new arrangement
for housing it. Many of the exhibits
are now croweded into the Mound
floor of the new National museum
building while others are in the old
building and a few of the artillery
pieces are in the open air awaitinsr
the construction of suitable shelter.
William De C. Ravenel. the director
of the museum, says consTess will
probably be asked at the next ses
sion to provide a building for the
collection which is of great historical
value.
The airplane exhibit included all
types of American and French n!n
used extensively in combat, pursuit
and bombing work abroad "and sev
eral specimens of captured enemy
machines. There are also on ' exhi-
union many types oi airplane mo
tors. In addition to the world war
aviation section the museum contains
ih original Lanirley and Wright
models.
The collection of American array
medical equipment, furnished by the
war Hnnartment. is practically com
nlete and includes the various types
of oneratlni? and X-ray equipment
used in base hospitals and field and
advanced base stations, a large vari
ety of surgical instruments, ambu
lancet and military dental equip-
One entire section of the collection
is devoted to exhibits showing tne
inception and development of the gas
mask Other exhibits include the
sixtv-inch searchlights used in the
field, the field artillery, machine
n unA riflps of the uniform, field
"
equipment and medals of general of
ficers, subordinate officers and pri
vates of all the allied countries and
Germany and Austria. There is also
collection of articles manufactured
entirely of paper by the Germans.

It would be well for the Oregon
voter who sees any merit in the
proposed anti-compulsory vaccina
tion amendment to spend an hour in
reading the history of smallpox.
This dread disease has made a whole
volume of history, for it has left the
prints of its poison feet on the hu
man body through a known period of
not less than fifteen centuries.
Until about 150 years ago there
was no known offensive weapon
with which to combat the plague,
which then was and still is known as
the most contagious and the most
dread of all communicable dis
eases. The only escape from it, be
fore the days of vaccination, was
flight or segregation.
On its first recorded entry into
Europe it swept off nearly one-third
of the entire population. When
brought to America by the Span
iards, early in the sixteenth century,
it killed off 3,000,000 people in Mex-
ico, and swiftly swept with deadly
effect over all of North America. In
1717 it destroyed one-fourth of the
population of Iceland, and in 1733 al
most depopulated Greenland.
Its ravages among the North
American Indians and other dark-
skinned natives of the Western world
were frightful. In some cases local
tribes were practically wiped out by
it. During the bettlpmonfc nf
ica more Indians died of smallDox
than by the guns of the white settlers.
Our pre-Revolutionarv anrest.m-9
lived in continuous dread of the dis
ease. so large family expected to
escape unscathed. It was almost cer
tain that one or more of the house
hold would die of this disease before
reaching maturity.
The general mortality among
smallpox patients in those davs was
more than one half, and not to ex
ceed ten per cent of thosp Wnmim f
have been exposed were found to be
immune. In some sprtinna rin; '
virulent epidemics, ninetv rPr nnt
of those stricken died. So deadly was
its work that it affected the nnYe nf
ntgro slaves. The slave that could
show pock marks on his face would
often sell for twice the price he would
bring without this certificate of
health.
Smallpox was almost epidemic in
the American army during .the Rev
olution. Our invasion of Canada was
more than once stopped by it. Small
pox prevailed in practically all the
camps. It killed more r,.nt,-;nt ai.
mers than died by British bullets. 1
Just at that time the first tps I
were being taken in the discovery of j
vaccination, and, though much fatal !
blundering was done by vaccinators, i
Washington, himself a pock-marked I
man, succeeded in putting an end to I
the plague in his army, then in can
tonment at Morristown IWhtc h I
vaccinating every soldier. At ' the
bdme time the American army at Ti
conderoga was dying by companies
by reason of the plague. I-
Compare this army health record
with our army today, or with that
- -ny nation of the world. During
the recent world war millions of men
huddled together in burrows along
vnW? , ' yet SmallPx
typhoid fever were practically un
known. The reason for this is known
to any one who wants n ,
jt,, . uu niyw, anil
that is that every soldier was com
pelled to be vaccinated.
Who would risk a return to the
smallpox conditions that prevailed
the world over before the discovery
of vaccination ?-Telegram.
