BARBED WIRE PLAYS
AN IMPORTANT PART
LONDON, Aug. 18—The War Offl
iving and sifting proposals of new de
ivxing and sifting proposals of new de
vices, covering the whole range of
land warfare, guns, explosives, shields,
movable armored fortress of attack
and defense, together with plans for
the great utilization of some of the
defenses already known, such as barb
ed wire.
This one item of barbed wire fs
working almost a revolution in the ac
cepted ideas of land warfare. One of
the chief officers, after returning from
the trenches in Flanders, said that at
many points of the line he saw barbed
,wire laced into an almost solid weave
a mile wide in front of the trenches.
"Such a lace-work is absolute pro
tection against sudden attack," said
he, “and it can hold back a large force
long enough to permit the trenches to
make every preparation and bring up
all needed reserves to overcome the
onslaught. It may even do away en
tirely with frontier fortresses, as an
intricate net work of wire will hold
back a sudden incursion across a bor
der more effectually than a massive
fortress costing vast sums and capable
of easy destruction by the monster
siege of guns in use."
TO INVEST ENGLISH
MAN INDIA
LONDON, Aug. 18—It 1b proposed to
make the English war loan available
for investment in India and thus open
up the great accumulation of hoarded
capital in that country. India is a
great reservoir of hidden gold and sil
ver. Vast quantities of gold go to In
dia from England, but very little ever
comes out. The late Lord Rothschild,
who made a long study of Indian
finances, told a parliamentary com
mute that not a single one of the thou
sands of smooth gold bars sent to
India had ever come back. He de
clared that a huge amount of money
was locked up in the country which
ought to be tapped and diverted to
useful purposes.
In recent years there has been a
considerable flow of Indian capital
into industrial enterprises and into
internal loans there, but the flow re
mains small compared with the actual
reserves.
In order to coax these out through
the medium of the British Loan, the
people would have to be enabled to
participate in the simplest possible
way, and the idea would have to be ex
plained and made popular. The Times
declares that the only obstacle is the
income tax, for Indian investors would
apparently be required to pay this
tax on their loan holdings twice over
—both in India and in England.

HUGE BOULDERS AS
DEADLY AS SHELLS
INNSBRUCK, Tyrol, Aug. 17—While
both Germans and Austrians are fight
ing with 42-centimeter cannon, and
with weapons that are the last word
in the art of the arms manufacturer,
the Tyroleans who have been drawn
into the war by the entry of Italy find
that the weapons used in the Napo
leonia wars are still effective, and are
using the mwith what is reported as
great success.
The old “weapons” are nothing less
than huge boulders which they are
rolling down, avalanche-wise, onto the
Italians as the latter attempt to storm
the heights along the Austro-Italian
frontier. They are proving quite as
deadly as any shells have done in this
war.
