THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: BACK 10 OLDEN METHODS Some Are Advocating the Return to | Days of Helmet and Armor Plate, LESSENS EFFECTS OF SHELLS (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) LONDON, Aug. 6-—The Lordon news- papers are urging upon the British gov- ernmant the advisbility of adopting the steel helmet, as well as some simple form of protective breast armor, for the troors in France and Flenders. France, Russla and Germany have been experi- menting along this line for some time, and France haa recently definitely ndopted a light steel helmet, suggesting in dew'gn the headpiece worn by men-at« arms six centurics ago. ‘One of the most remarkable features of this war” remarks the Times, “‘has been the return to older, If not to ancient, methods. The steel fort has been dls- credited and the earthwork justified. the | strength and direction of the wind has Lecome a leading factor once in, as it was In the days of bows and arrows, since aeroplanes are affected by the wind and gné attacks determined by it; hand grenades, bombs, and eatapuits have as- LEADING MEN OF TURKEY--At the left is Sultan Mechmea V. and at right Yussuf Izzedune, heir to throne, i ] i ! : 1 |mitted that the British plants are old- | SMELTERS English Government Finds Processes in Those in Great Britain Are 0ld-Fashioned. KEEP EYE ON ZINC SHORTAGE | (Correspondence of the Amsociated Press) | LONUON, July 2.—~"“The whole prob- [lem of increasing the manufacture of |spolter in the United Kingdom is en- |gaging the immediate attention of his [ majesty’'s movernment,” declared Mr [Bonar Law, in behalf of the government, fn Parllament recently, More than a score of questions had besn put to him |urging the necessity of preventing any further shortage or rise in price of zino, which has advanccd to nearly five times | ita value before the war. | Strange as it may seem in the face of the urgent demand for minc in making | cartridges, cases and other munitions, the | output of the British works aince the | beginning of the war has actually been | smaller than normal. Several plants have had a number of furnaces idle and the productive capacity of tne others hus been only about half what it was before | the war. The main reason, it is satd, s the withdrawal of skilled labor by ene listment. At the same time it Is ad- fashioned, lacking the numerous labor- saving devices which have been adopted A e {plant could Legin to make deliveries | in Germany and the United Btates during the last seven or elght years. Estimates have now been prepared for | the government for the erection of new smelting worke of the latest type in this | country, capable of dealing with 200,000,000 | pounds of concentrates & year and pro- | ducing about 40,00 tons of %nc.

A knotty question in connection with the speiter situation is provided by the | outstanding contracts entered into by the | Australian mines wtih German houses. As cxplained by Mr. Bonar Law: “I am not aware that there is any | German owned speiter in Australia. Aus- tralia, however, produces large quantities of zinc-ores and concentrates. These were not manufactured into speiter in Aus- tralla, but before the war they were | principally exported to Germany for that purpose. On December 11 the Australlan sovernment drew the attention of his | majesty’s government to the contraots with German firms by which they were controlled. The question of these con- tracts is now being considered.” Before the war Great Britain was con- ken From "Spirit- net R ST e, Tuets 4t New Record Made in salss, 0.

Finally, the question of armor for the fighting man Fimself has come up for conmderation.” Lessens the Woun The value of a lght protective armor I8 attested In seversl rocent articles in the Britisn medical journats. Dr. Dev- raigne, a French army surgeon, discusses n the Lancet the result of his tests of the new French helmet and gives it his unqualified endorsement. “‘The soldier who wears & helmet,” he says, “‘escapes light wounds of the head and even wound that would in ordinary circumstances have been severe are greatly mitigated.

Don’t YOU Be Merely a Wisher How often you meet him ~the “Wisher!” He wishes for this, he wishes for that, or he wishes for someother thing; and he usually gets— nothing! Because wishing will get no one anywhere. So it is that the “Wisher” is always and forevermore a “Wisher” You know him and his class—“Oh, I wish I had a decent place to live,” or “I wish I had a home,” or “I wish I could get a farm.” Well, the only way he’ll ever get it is by going after it. And we say to YOU now- that if you want a house, lot, farm, or ANYTHING, don’t be a “Wisher,” but go and get it—go after it! Profit by the experience of the “Wisher” who never gets anywhere or accomplishes anything. If YOU want a home go get it. And, listen, the easiest, safest and best way to proceed is to turn RIGHT NOW to the Real Estate columns of THE BEE and scan the offerings. There you will find many opportunities awaiting you. A
