The freight car shortage is much the same as in years gone by when there were insufficient cars to take care of the crops and look after the other business. The demand in this case, however, is different, and the lacjyof cars more excusable since there, was 1o reason for anticipating any such development. Business is abnor- mal because of the war and while th railroads are not able to meet it they. are in much the same situation as the +concerns’ which have spent and are spending thousands of dollars in order to get ready to handle the orders which have been received from foreign coun- tries. Every effort must be madé to meet the situation and it is a condition to which relief can be given jby others than the railroad companies, for while they are doing their utmost to get new equipment and meet the demands they are at the same time seriously handi- capped by the congestion in the ter- ‘minals where lack of storage room makes the holding of the filled cars necessary urntil the goods can be moved. There being no demurrage ~harge on goods destined for abroad it points out the necessity of hasten- ing the loading and unloading of cars throughout the country. The unneces- sary detention of cars contributes as much to the shortage as does the act- ual lack of roHing stock and in over- coming that there is a part which ev- ery despatcher and receiver of freight throughout the country can play with appreciable results. BIGGER SUBMARINES, It wasn't many months ago er there had been resentment of the claim that the submarine branch of the navy was in a deplorable condition and only one submersible fit for service on the Atlantic seaboard, that tests were made which quickly showed that how- ever good the underwater boats might look to the casual observer and how- ever favorable an impression they might create on review they were nev- ertheless far from the standard of fit- ness which is required of such vessels for service of defense. Steps were immediately taken overcome the weak spots and to make the flotilla fit as possible, but it has been evident from the type of vessels of that character that have been put out by the countries at war that our navy is not equipped with anything in the way of submarines which could perform a similar service. While this shortcoming of the United States navy has been under consideration for some time and steps have been n_to, provide modern craft, the~last maneuvers of the At= lantic fleet have again shown that our present submarines cannot be depend- ed upon to render the service which is expected of them. Their size is a han- dicap to their navigation at sea, they cannot attain the desired speed and they lack the efficiency of the under- water boats of larger size. Thus have the claims made months ago with full consideration for the national welfare been substantiated. = Actual practice has proved that the statements were not based solely on partisan policy and bigger and better submarines must be built if they are going to be useful in rendering the service that is re- quired of them and offset the offen- sive of any possible enemy. DEPENDS ON THE MEN. Throughout the country in recent vears there have been ado»te;l by the cities various new forms of city gov- ernment. Not a few have believed that the commission form contained the panacea for all their municipal trou-~ bles and that all that was needed was to get out of the old form into the new and the ills that had existed for so long would be cured. Various condi- tions have brought such a feeling’into existence and the result has been that a Jot of experimentation has been go- ing on. In some cases perfectly sat- isfactory results have been secured. In others the improvement im maunicipal affairs has mot been so. noticeable while there have been instances where commission government has failed to accomplish what was expected and so wmuch so that a return to the old form tol| EDITORIAL NOTES.

During the period from 1882 to 1902, there were spasmodic efforts on the part of the student body to take advantage of the optional military drill.

In order to rendsr legal aid gratuit- ously to those citi: of New Ha- ven who would not otherwise be able to secure it, the Yale Law _School last week organized The Legal Aild Bureau which has been under consid- eration fr some time. As stated in its comstitution, “The object and pur- Pose of this bureau shall be to ren- der legal aid and assistance gratuit- ously to all persons or associations, who, by reason of financial embarrass- ment, or for any other reason they ap- ‘worthy thereof.” It will be the con- stant policy of the bureau to assist only those who are unable to engage the services of a practicing attorne; At the meeting held last Thursday, the officers for the bureau were elected and the board of directors chosen. All members of the Yale Law School, who have successfully completed one year of law work, together with a limited number of graduates will be eligible for membership. The bureau has esta¥lished its office in the Lowell House mission. Two student members will be in charge one might each week. As the Increase in the number of cli- ents warrants more time will be de- voted to this work. Through this set- tlement house and its workers, it is expected to reach many who need legal advice; and by means of other settlement houses, . missions, foreign to learn of still others. Clients will generally be represented by those members, who have been admitted to the bar, when apearing in court, ex~ cept in cases before the compensation commissioner, when the student mem. bers may plead the case. It is gener ally felt that the Yale Legal Aid Bu- reau will perform a most valuable so- clal service, the hope being cherished that something may be done, to allev- jate the position of the poor, who have been unlawfully deprived of their Iib- erty or possessions, and to accomplish the best and highest aims of the pro- fession. Stories of the War Individual Bravery. More than a hundred instances of individual bravery in the fighting at Loos and Hulluch six weeks ago, are recounted in brief official notes ap- pended to the latest ligt of awards of the military cross and Distinguished Service Order. The ten most strik- ing stories are as follow: Captain Dennis, Scottish Borderers, ‘was wounded in the trenches, but aft- er his wound was bandaged he es- caped from the ambulance and went back to his men, advancing with his company until again wounded. He was carried back to a dressing sta- tion, from which he disappeared after his wound was dressed. Later he was seen catching up with his company and again cheering them on until he was wounded a third time. Major Gordon, London Artfilery got close up to the German lines to re- connoitre, and although under heavy fire, brought- back twelve German captives after having shot one man with his revolver. Lieut. Carr, London Infantry, no- ticed while directing the removal of grenades from the divisional “dump” that the fuse of a bomb had become ignited. He at once picked it up and carried it out of the dugout. It exploded just as it left his hand, seriously wounding him. His cool- ness saved an explosion of many thousand grenades and bombs, which would have killed scores of men and destroyed the entire divisional bomb reserves during the heavy operations. Capt. Bird, London Field Ambu- lance, on one occasion worked for 23 hours without cessation in _tending and dressing the wounded. He was twice observed cartying wounded on & setretcher under rifle fire, and for 56 hours was .continually . exposing himself to heavy shell fire. Tdeut.. Willilams of the ‘Buffs”, took charge of a small party of bomb- ers and attacked the enemy, throwing 2,000 bombs in seventeen hours. It was raining all the time, and the damp fuses had to be lit from cigar- ettes. Williams was wounded early l’: the fighting dut refused to.leave s 3 Lieut. Hollwey, Royal Artillery, laid .a telephone wire through the Hohenzollern Redoubt under heavy fire. One leg was disabled before he had gone ten yards, but he dragged himeelf on, the same leg being again fractured by a bullet before he had finished his task.

Lieut. Pusch, ndon Infantry, led a party of bombers during the ad- vance through Loos. Going alone in to a house he captured seven Germans although ehot in the face by one of them. Notwithstanding his wound he continued clearing the enemy out of the cellars of the town. Capt. Williams, Welsh Guards, was in command of a squad of machine- guns, "After having a wound dressed he went back to his place and contin- ued to direct the work until midnight, although the nature of his wound compelled him to lie flat on his back all the time. Lieut. Wood, Gordon_ Highlanders, took 275 prisoners in Loos, marched them back under heavy fire with a small escort, and returfied with much- needed ammunition for the men in the firing line. Being by this time the only officer left, In his company, he lied it on the’ slope of Hill 70 and held his new position with .great bravery and resource. y Captain Kearsley, Wels! Fusili although wounded early in the fight- ing, continued at the front of his men and maintained his position until he had been hit seven times. Record as Sniper. Letters from the GallipQli Penin- sula say that a Queensland cavalry- man named Sing holds the record among the Australasian troops as a sniper. Up to the first of September Sing had shot 91 Turks of whom at least 50 were killed outright. Sing was a crack marksman before the war and had won prizes for his shooting at Brisbane and at Sydney. Since en gazing in systematic sniping in the Dardanelles operations he has rarely hissed one of his human targets. Day after day and night after night he settles down comfortably in some pet position and waits with inexhau: tible patience for his chance. He sits for hours with a telescope as an ald watching the Turk! tracks ower the hills or the lensths of the Turkish trenches until soner or later Turk shows himself. If the Turk is wary and quickly bobs up and, then down again Sing does not fire. He pro- ceeds on the principle that embold- ened by fancied security the Turk will gradually risk first his head, then his shoulders and finally .the upper half of his body. At this stage Sing's rifie cracks and the Turk is seen to fall. A notch is made by Sing in a stick whith he keeps by way of a record. Sing’s sniping~ performances are s: to be beyond question for every telling shot by him has been checked by some officer. \ Whep the Adi Ity Needs Ships. “From the point of view of the shipping man, the whole history of the war as far as the transport service is concerned is a wicked story of ignor- ance, ineptitude and colossal waste" declares the editor of Syren and Ship- ping, the leading journal of the Eng- lish shipping trade. He adds: “Costly and userul ships were used for months as prison ships. Super- ships like the Aquitania were employ- ed on scoutliz missions, their magni- ficent passenger equipment gutted. Ships were allowed to load cargo or to book a full passenger list and then owmers were informed that the Ad- miralty required these boats.” An instance is given of a 7,000-ton boat which was all ready to sail with 200 passengers when it was taken over and sent empty to the west coast of South America, although- it might have been loaded with coal and real- ized a small fortune. Another case is given of a 6,000-ton boat at Huelve about to load with a cargo of iron-ore for England which was requisitioned suddenly and sent empty to the Paci- fic, although there should have been plenty of merchant ships available much nearer the desired destination. “How long,” asks the journdl “will these methods be tolerated? the national interest, a committee of ship- ping men should have been selected to organize the Admiralty chartering.” OTHER VIEW POINTS 1 The habit of thrift is becoming fixed in the minds of thousands of resi- dents of the associated communities as the records of Christmas savings show. The beneficial plan has devel- oped wonderfully during the past two vears.

The characteribtics of this interesting, isolated battle-theater are given in a war primer just issued by the Natlonal Geographic society. It reads: “Ancient Russia, or that part of modern Serbia included in the district of Novibazar, formed the kernel of the territories in the Balkans of which the migratory Serbs took possession. and it was within this aerea that Ser- bian independence died Gen- erations passed after the fleld of Kos- sova, on which the Ottoman hordes smashed the Serbian Emipre, and be- queathed to the gemerations that fol- lowed the merciless, unequal and un- ending struggle, which was fought out between the conquerors an the o tives in the hills of Novibazar. “The area of the Sanjak is moun- tainous, gashed ~with small, irregular canyons, made difficult with great, broken piles of rocks,- and" clothed with forests. From the days of the Byzantine writers, this area has been renowned. for its defensive qualities, and rated high for its strategic val- ues among the many natural strong- holds found among the almost inac- cessible. Balkan mountsin systems. “The region is watered by the Lim, which flows northward into Bosnia, and by numesous 1 tributaries of the River Ibar. In Its broadest valley, ‘which bisects it, lies its one import- ant town, Novibazar, which dominates the way between Serbia and Monte- negro, and between Serbia and Aus- trian Bosnja. Many of the important points in this area were tified by the Turks, and works may have been put to good use by the Seérbian army of the - north. The Sanjak was acquired by Serbia as one of the fruits of the war of ‘the Balkan league with Turkey in 1912."
