While in 1014 the average German then consumed little more than 100 of beer annually only 80.8 lits were consumed per capita in the d year.

French wonder engine develops its designed horsepower and can stand up to the gruelling 218 mile course, it
should enable France to win. This new French product has ,18
cylinders arranged in three blocks of six each, and these blocks are in the form of an inverted letter T. French designers are building a monoplane around this engine, the roots of flie wings of the monoplane being formed by the two horizontal blocks 'of cylinders. It is expected the engine will develop more than 1,200 horse-i power, and a speed well in excess of
300 miles an hour is looked for.

RED GROSS CHAPTERS " STRENGTHEN FORGES FDR DISASTER RELIEF Launch National Campaign to Perfect Preparedness Plans in Every Community.
A nation-wide campaign to strengthen plans for preparedness against disaster and for emergency relief has been launched by the American Red Cross through Its Chapters. The program is Intended to perfect disaster preparedness committees In the ten thousand communities reached by Rod Cross Chapters and their branches. When carried out. through committees of men and women in the communitfes, It will insure that should a disaster come, an organizatioa for emergency relief, Including every modern method science has perfected —such as the radio, the airplane, the motor car and watercraft—can be mobilized to bring assistance, with the promptitude applied by the Red Cross In recent major disasters, such as tho West Indies hurricane and tho Mississippi Valley flood. These enlarged and strengthened plans for disaster relief are set forth in the revised Red Cross manual, "When Disaster Strikes,” which has been placed In the hands of every Red Cross chairman throughout the nation. The plan to encourage adoption of these added disaster preparednesa methods was begun at this time because Red Cross records—covering 48 years of disaster relief—show that tho period of the greatest number of disasters, large and small, ranges from the early Spring through the
early Fall.
The Record of 43 Years A historical summary of Red Cross disaster relief since 1SS2, shows that the society was active In giving relief In 938 domestic disasters and Its expenditures In those relief operations were $49,394,000. The three groups of calamities appearing most frequently were: cyclones, tornadoes, hurricanes and other storms, 231; tires,
131; floods, 120.
During this period, the Red Cross also has given assistance to distressed peoples of othep countries In 133 disasters. Total expenditures for relief at home and throughout the world, in 48 years, amount to $77,354,000. In the four most recent major disasters, among tho greatest which have ever visited tho American continent, Red Cross expenditures for relief totalled $29,188,908. Only In the event of large disasters such as the ! Florida hutrl&fae ' Of 192fi, tho Mis-j slssippl Valley flood of 1927, the New 1 England flood of the same Fall, and the West Indies hurricane of 1928, does tlie Red Cross seek contributions I from the general public for relief work; and frequently Ihese are not ample, ns in the four disasters listed, the Red .Cross donated $1,338,201 from its own treasury to aid In the work. In the event of smaller disasters, tho cost of the relief Is met largely from Red Cross resources.
No Community Immune
No community is immune to great disasteis of one type or another, the manual shows. One preparedness measure that can ho adopted Is a survey of the surrounding country, with tho assistance of engineers and other experts to determine tho type of disaster to which the section is subject. Hazards resulting from the presence of rivers and laki s, subject to over flow, of mines, munition factories, and other industries wherein dangers from explosion and tires may exist, are singled out for consideration. Extension of existing disaster organizations In communities, and organization of men and women, trained In public health and community service, will result In the saving of livi s and the prevention of extensive suffering, through privation, epidemic and other misfortune, should emergency arise through disaster. These organization plans, outlined In tho manual, are similar to those now existing In most Red Cross Chapters, only strengthened In somo particulars. They contemplate disaster preparedness and relief committees, under which function sub-committees on food, clothing, shelter, medical aid. registration of di ister sufferers and Information service, transportation and communication and finance.

With tli* passing of Marshal Koch, death has claimed the second of the Kreat triumviratn of Allied military leaders who brought World War victory to the Allies. Ivirl Haig, tho British Commander-ln-Chief, died January 30, 192'?. General Pershing, tho American wur-timo head of tho American legions, alone remains. By the Irony of fat*\ Marshal Koch’s fatal illness was directly traceable to a gesture of hom.me be paid to the Allied soldier do.id last Armistice Day. In tho falling rain ho went without his hat through tho memorial ceremonies In Paris find contracted a cold which quickly resulted in more serious diso;ises which his declining vitality was not able to overcome. Tho Marshal was 77 years old. Evidence of tho affection in which the French generalissimo was held in this country was widely manifest, and received formal acknowledgement from M. Maximo Mongemlre, French Consul-General in New York. “Not only Frenchmen, but people of those allied nations whoso soldiers fought side by .side under his leadership for tho future of humanity, share In this grief, and I am grateful for tills opportunity to thank the many Americans who have tendered their condolences to me as tho representative of France, and previously expressed their hope for his rocovery,” Monsieur Mongendre said. "It is douhly to bo regretted that his illness should have hud Its inception in an act of homage to the gallant war-dead, when lie contracted a cold during the ceremonies on Armistice Day.” The sturdy strength of will which carried Foch undaunted through the vicissitudes of war had been equally marked through his entire Illness. Ills great spirit alone carried him past the initial crisis last January, according to his physicians, when the cold, which, soldier-like, be at first endeavored to shake olf, settled in the bronchial tube«, causing a hacking cough and finally affecting seriously the action of hi» heart.
Tho brain which directed tho Allien to victory remained clear to the last. In characteristic military fush-
MARSHAL FERDINAND FOCH Ion ho "obeyed orders” with the same strict promptness which he exacted from his own pollus. Khcently, It Is reported, he rallied his strength and sought to speak with Madame Koch. This infraction of discipline was quickly checked by the nurse. "You must not talk.” she said. And the general was silent. Marshal Foch’s fatal illness occurred at a time when several other French statesmen were suffering from dangerous colds, and reports from Paris stated that the epidemic has aroused agitation against the old custom of keeping tho head uncovered during military memorial services for the dead. A similar agitation was reported from England, when it was announced that King George’s reeent illness had had Us Inception at the Armistice Day celebrations when the King stood for long Intervals bareheaded in the rain.
