for the field and position guns as we}l
as for the trench mortal's, since it
must Ir* expected that the allies will,
<n case the operation should be on a
big scale, employ poison gas in large
quantities and at the same time put
up a barrage fire between the German
front lines and their communications!
with the rear.
The essential reserve of ammunition :
for the trench mortars is laid down at
250 projectiles for each light mortar;
30 projectiles for each trench mortar
of middling calibre and 40 projectiles
for each heavy mortar. The mortar
emplacements should be surrounded
by barbed wire entanglements and the
gunners should be provided with a i
plentiful supply of hand-grenades for |
use in ease the allied troops should |
*.to m the positions.
As to the field and position artillery
each batteiy should have on hand suf
ficient ordinary ammunition to last 3
days and a half and also have ready ‘
for use a supply of poison-gas shells.
Great stress is laid on the value of
maintaining communications between
the infantry engaged and the staff in
the rear. Each regiment is ordered to I
appoint an officer responsible for this
seivice, whose duty shall be to recon
noitre the lino occupied by his regi
ment and send frequent repoits as to
the situation even when no change havS
occurred.
The document recalls that the
French airplanes accompanying the as
saulting infantry during the last bat
tles around Verdun caused great dis
turbance to the Germans. It asserts
that the effective results obtained by
these aviators were very limited, but
that the morale of the German troops
was considerably upset by them. It
recommends the placing of special
machine-gun groups in the rear of the
front lines to deal with such attacks
by enemy airplanes.

ENGLISH KING
AND OUEEN ARE
LPON RATIONS
LONDON, March 27. —(Correspon
dence of The Associated Press). —
King George and Queen Mary were
among the first in England, a$ was
Mrs. Woodrow Wilson In the United
State*, to make their household con
form to the rigorous rationing system
of a food minister or administrator
Like the White House at Washington,
the royal family and staff at Bucking
ham palace have been placed on the
diet suggested by the man chosen to
conserve the nation’s food supply, in
England, Lord Rhondda.
From the early days of the Minis
try of Food the King has insisted that
every suggestion for self-denial which
has been put before the people of the
r country must be loyally observed
throughout the royal household.
Sir Derek Keppel, Master of the
Household, said in an interview this
week:
“Wo are all in line here with the
rations, and I am saying no more than
what is common knowledge when I tell
you that I never knew any people so
thoroughly conscientious in this mat
ter as the King and Queen. They ac
cept the restrictions with the most
noticeable cheerfulness, taking real
pleasure in bearing their sJiare of the
food hardships.
“The royal household is a large and
varying one. Its changing character
makes some difficulty in the rationing
but if any error is made in the calcu
lation it i3 in the direction of Mess’
rather than ‘more.’ We keep in con
stant touch with the Ministry of Food,
learning each day whatever new regu
lations may be impending.
“Quite often recently the royal iar
der has been empty of such commodi
ties as butter, margarine, and tea,
and we have gone without, from King
down. The King and Queen have re
peatedly spoken to me to impress me
with the duty of self-denial in food
and drink. The King in the first days
of the war pledged himself to total
abstinence from alcoholic beverages,
and that pledge holds good today ovei
the whole household.
“The King actually tries always to
anticipate restrictions. A long while
ago he insisted on coal economy in the
palace. Waste of fuel or coal consti
tutes a grave offense among the ser
vants of the King.
