TAKE HOME A SOLDIER
War Service Board Makes a Suggcs-
lion to Chilians.
The War Service Board is out to
do away with “cheerless Sundays”
among the soldiers. Any civilian who
wants to be a friend to a soldier and
who can afford an extra plate at his
Sunday dinner table is asked to in-
vite some man from the army camps
to share his Sabbath repast.
If possible urge*: the board take
the soldier home with yon Saturday
night and let him spend all day Sun-
day at your homa. Hotel and room-
ing house accommodations become
scarce on account of the great num-
ber of soldiers coming to town Sat-
urday evenings and late arrivals are
often unable to find comfortable
places to spend the night.
“A soldier isn’t ordinarily a mil-
lionaire in disguise.” said one of the
War Service Board authorities. “Re-
sides. a lot of them won't bo here
much longer and San Antonians have
a wonderful opportunity to show
them a good time while they are.”
Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo
If you want to keop your hair
in good condition be careful what
you wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham-
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp makes the hair
brittle and is very harmful. .Just
plain mulslfied cocoanut oil (which
is pure and entirely greaseless)
is much better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you
can use for shampooing ns this
can’t possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance of rich creamy lather and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor-
oughly. The lather rinses out eas-
ily and removes every particles of
dust dirt dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly and it leaves it fine and
silky bright fluffy and easy to
manage.
\ou can get mulslfied cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. It is
very cheap and a few ounces is
enough to last everyone iu the
family ’ or months.

HAS SEVEN ACCIDENTS
One Man Has Trouble at
6000 Feet—None Hurt
No Planes Wrecked.
As the result of the increased pro-
gram of flying at Kelly Field and
the substantial basis of electrical and
mechanical support on which the fly-
ing department is now placed a re-
quest for 100 additional flying ca-
dets has been submitted to the de-
partment in Washington by Maj. J.
W. Heard executive officer Kelly
Field No. 2. It is believed these stu-
dents will be ordered to the field
within the immediate future.
Though Kelly Field has long ago
taken first place as a training sta-
tion for student flyers all records
previously established for daily fly-
ing hours at Kelly Field and else-
where were broken this week. On
Tuesday the total number of flying
hours was 546; on Wednesday the
total was 539; and the Thurs<lay to-
tal was expected to go beyond any
of these days.
Mechanics Catch l’p.
The record for total number of
flying hours so far established at
Kelly Field was 4 50 hours. This
stage was reached some two weeks
ago but since that time owing to
had weather and difficulty in secur-
ing various needed airplane parts to-
gether with difficulty in the mechan-
ical upkeep of the planes the daily
flying hours were reduced to t^e 300-
hour stage.
But the bad weather with its nec-
essary hold up in flying enabled the
electrical and mechanical depart-
ment to < atch up with the accumu-
lated work and also to place itself on
such a sound basis in regard to
skilled workmen and the ability to
turn out completely overhauled ma-
chines that the flying program may
now be increased to a wider extent
than ever before. Tuesday which
was a fine day for flying witnessed
a jump of over 200 hours in total fly-
ing time and ran the total across
the 500-hour mark for the first time
in the history of the tield.
While Wednesday's total was 539
hours the day was not a particularly
advantageous one from the stand-
point of damage to machines. Seven
machines were more or less damaged
in the course of the day’s flying but
no serious hurts were received by the
student flyers. There are days when
no accidents occur ami two planes
damaged a day is considered a fair
average.
Tall Spin nt 0000 Feet.
The remarkable feature of Wed-
nesday’s seven/damaged planes was
the fact that none of the students
was injured. The escape of Lieut. C.
B. Hightower of Staples Tex. who
was caught in a tailspin Wednesday
evening at an altitude of 6000 feet
and who landed without injury on
the golf course at Brackenridge Park
was the outstanding “miracle.”
Lieutenant Hightower came to Kel-
ly Field on December 4 was assigned
to the flying school on December 9
and recently received his commis-
sion as a flying officer. On Wed-
nesday afternoon he was making a
flight over the northern part of the
city at an altitude of about 6000 feet\
At 3:42 o’clock golf players on the
city links were amazed to see a plane
overhead in what appeared to be a
series of convulsions. Tdeutenant
Hightower had become caught In a
tall spin and was seeking to right
his plane. Twice he succeeded in
"straightening out” and effected a
landing on the eighteenth hole of the
golf course.
Aside from being badly shaken up
from his checkered and precipitate
descent he was uninjured stepped
out of his plane and asked to be di-
rected to a telephone. As soon as he
got his breath sufficiently he tele-
uhoned Major Heard the account of
his accident and the fact that his
plane was not badly damaged.

and Ireland. The total stocks of
wheat in Great Britain at the end
of December 1917 exceeded those
at the end of December 1916 by
one million <iuarters.
Tn 1917 there was built in Great
Britain 1163.474 tons of shipping and
70.00 y tons were obtained from
abroad. The chancellor explained
that the premier's estimate of ship
construction was not realized because
the government had arranged to have
a large quantity of tonnage built in
America but when America came
Into the war she preferred as the
British would have it to take the
tonnage herself. But the tonnage
was there.
liktcsso iii Imports.
Emphasizing the value of the ship-
ping controller’s work Mr. Bonar
Law said that in spite of the dimi-
nution In ships and in spite of the
fact that Great Britain had lent 1-
570.000 gross tons for the use of
he- allies. In September. October and
November the nation had actually
imported the same amount as had
been imported from February to
April.
It had been suggested said the
h ncellor. that bees 1 ° America had
entered the war. Great Britain ought
to have to spend less. America had
given great help not only to Great
Britain’s allies but to Britain herself
for which Britain could not be too
•’rateful. But the pressure on the al-
!ies owing to the long continuance of
the war. had made the burden very
great and he was glad to say that
this country had been able to give
no less assistance to some of her al-
lies because of the assistance of
America.
?fr. Bonar Law defended the pres-
ent system of the government point-
ing out that the cabinet idea had
been adopted by all the belligere-
ents.
MAY PROSEC TTE THE POST.
Lloyd George’s Enemies Not Ex|»cct-
cd to Accept His Challenge.
London Times Service.
Special Cable io The San Antonio Light
and the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Copyright. 1918. by The Public Ledger Co.
LONDON Feb. 14. —The London
correspondent of the Philadelphia
Public. Ledger cables as follows:
It is understood in some well-in-
formed circles that the government
has decided to prosecute the Morning
Post for printing opinions in an ar-
ticle which appeared in that paper
on Monday contrary to the orders of
the censor.
The article was followed by a tor-
rent of editorial opinion in that
paper in condemnation of the gov-
ernment and especially of the pre-
mier and other pacifist newspapers
also followed its lead.
Bonar Law. finance minister was
heckled in the Commons last night
by pacifist members who asked
whether General .Robertson chief of
the imperial general staff had re-
signed. All kinds of rumors that
ministerial and military resignations
were impending were rife in the lob-
by of the House of Commons. While
many profess to think the cabinet is
shaky a majority apparently believe
that Premier Lloyd George’s enemies
will not accept his challenge to re-
place his government with another
one if confidence Is lost.
Deep Intrigue Reported.
The published reports of Colon tl
Repington’s impending arrest are at
present negligible but it is known
that there Is a deep intrigue against
Lloyd George s government and that
It Is about to come to a climax. The
decision of the government which
was announced in the Commons yes-
terday afternoon to prosecute both
the editor of the Morning Post and
Colonel Repington came as a sur-
prise to the great majority of the
public when they saw the black head-
line “Colonel Repington Will Be
Prosecuted.”
The proceedings which are usual
in such cases are conducted by a
summons to appear in a police court
and not through an arrest. The
charge must be the conveying of in-
formation to the enemy as a publica-
tion in defiance of the censor's or-
ders Is not in itself a punishable of-
fense. To road the headlines across
the first pages of yesterday evening’s
newspapers "Lloyd George and Army
Chiefs” indicates the close connec-
tion in the public mind between Col-
onel Repington’s article in Monday’s
Post and the flurry now progressing
in the House of Commons.
The Times says editorially: “Noth-
ing could demonstrate the insincerity
of further curiosity (about the pro-
ceedings of the Versailles council)
more completely than the cheers of
the little ‘pacifist’ group who formed
a clique for Mr. Asquith.”
The Daily Mail concludes in an
editorial entitled "Asquith. Pacifist —
\\ obble. Wobble Wobble” with the
following sentence: "The House of
Commons is not likely to sacrifice
Lloyd (Jeorge in order to make As-
quith ‘the defeatist’ prime minis-
ter.”
Post Is Defiant.
The Morning Post says editorially:
“It has been suggested that we were
giving away information of service
to the enemy. The suggestion is
false. We defy anyone to point to
any statement in the Morning Post
which could bo of any value to the
Germans • • • We are not afraid
to take our place at the bar of any
tribunal ♦ • • But the prime min-
ister learned enough in the House
of Commons yesterday to satisfy his
acute mind that it would be unwise
from every point of view to pursue
this matter any further.”
The Telegraph preserved an edi-
torial silence upon what it describes
in its parliamentary column under
the headline as “Scene With Mr. As-
quith.’’
The Daily News in an editorial
way. says: “The House nf Commons
is in no mood to tolerate the trans-
fer of the British nrmv control to an
irresponsible body through which
Lloyd George is carrying out his per-
sonal ideas to effect ♦ • • it is for
Parliament to make clear that this
country is governed from Westmin-
ster and not from Versailles.”
The Express says: "Mr. Asquith's
speech was an incitement to the anti-
government section of the House of
Commons together with the ultra-
militarists Ln a strange alliance with
the radical semi-pacifists • • • Bet
the snipers think before they shoot.”
No Cause for Anxiety.
The Chronicle says: “The only le-
gitimate cause for public anxiety has
been the fear with which the various
Incidents have from time to time
lent color to the belief that the gov-
ernment. while loath to dismiss Sir
William Robertson and Sir Douglas
Haig did not fully smympathize
with them. The prime minister and
T/ord Curzon were both at pains yes-
terday tn dispel this idea.”
The Standard says editorially:
“The names of two distinguished
British soldiers wore freely men-
tioned in the debate. It is assumed
that in the case of those officers co-
ordination is synonymous with sub-
ordination. That of course is not
so. The British representatives at
the Versailles council ho they the
present army chiefs or others will
bo co-eoual with the foreign mem-
bers of the council. We hold no brief
for Lloyd George. We have criti-
cised many of his appointments and
some of his measures but in this
case he seems to us to have boon un-
justly treated and in substance what
he has done is ignored In a storm of
controversy over tactics of petty per-
sonalities.”

Heads of Various Depart
ments Tell of Necessity
for More Money.
WASHINGTON D. C. Feb. 14. —
A billion dollar urgent deficiency
appropriation bill the largest of its
kind in the history of Congress was
favorably reported to the House to-
day by Chairman Sherley of the
Appropriations Committee. Consid-
eration of the bill which provides
for the immediate need of the war
navy and other departments is ex-
pected to begin in the House tomor-
row.
In presenting the measure Chair-
man Bherley made public testimony
given to the committee by depart-
ment chiefs during the past month
of committee investigation. Huge
amounts were asked for various
military activities. Among these was
a total of almost $81000000 for
mountain field and siege artillery in
addition to more than $1000000000
already spent and contract authori-
zations of $779 000000 additional.
551000.000 Extra for Artillery.
The testimony of Colonel Ames of
the Ordnance Department said that
the total amount available for this
purpose since the beginning of the
war under direct appropriations and
contract authorizations was $1816-
000000 of which amount orders
have been placed requiring ultimate
expenditure of $1202000000. leav-
ing still available for contracts
$5640001)00.
He said the $1816000000 was in-
tended to supply ammunition upon
revised estimates of the quantities
needed for 2.000.000 men including
the ammunition needed for the light
trench mortars. The $51.M5.000 ad-
ditional he declared is asked as the
result of a change in the military
program including new requirements
for a larger number of shells for
ammunition for guns mounted on
tankA and $7000000 for a plant
designed for the filling of projectiles
with gases and $2000000 for a
plant for the same purpose to be
erected in France.
$1)0.000.0(?() for Air Prognun.
Major General Squier chief signal
officer testified the signal corps
had spent or obligated all the $640-
000000 appropriated to carry out
its aiplane program and • has in-
curred obligations that will equal
£90.000000 in addition and may g°
beyond that the present fiscal
year. He asked $277732 000 to pro-
cure bombs for the airplanes.

facilities. General Goethals said ap-
proximately $100000000 with au-
thorization of $50000000 more is
