WOULD TEST COTTON AS
' MILITARY FORTIFICATION
Rumored Government Will Be Asked to Look Into Possibility
of Converting Staple Into Movable and Almost Impreg
nable Intrenchments—Would Have Big Effect on War
Washington. January 4.—(Special.)—It la
reported that a member of the House
committee on military affairs is prepar
ing a bill, which he will soon introduce,
providing for a test by the government of
the utility of compressed bales of cotton
specially bound in wiTe as a buffer
against artillery attacks on fortiftations
and as movable intrenchraents In the
field. Andrew Jackson used barricades of
cotton bales uncompressed to very good
advantage against the British at New
Orleans 100 years ago, and it is claimed
that compressed cotton soaked in water
Is noncombustiblc and offers great resist
ance to rifle and artillery fire.
Should the test be made and the results
prove satisfactory, it would doubtless
have an important bearing upon the Eu
ropean war. The contending forces in Bel
gium and France and In parts of Poland
re practically deadlocked, being com
paratively safe as long as they remain j
in their trendies, but exposed to horrible J£§jj|ji
slaughter as soon as a charge is at- ||B|
tempted. If cotton bales are placed on I . J
end at the top of a trench and moved ||B|
along by means of cotton hooks or trucks l|i|
such as are used in handling cbtton in ff|||
the south, it is thought that a movable lJH
barricade would be provided which would p&jfej
be a great protection to the troops in a Hi
forward movement to attack a position. |H|
As the battle lines in both the eastern
and western theatres of war are each BH
about 300 miles long, a vast quantity of jmm
cotton would be used in such barricades. Jj|||
It is certain that much interest will be
felt, particularly In the south, in the pro- ^^Hg
posed test for this novel use for cotton,
which, if successful, would transform the B|§Jfe
battlefields of Europe into vast cotton
yards with cotton bales moving forward Bjj&l$j
against intrenchments like branches from
Birman Wood upon Dur dnane. The HB
world’s surplus of cotton would 'speedily qH|
be absorbed and future wars, instead of
depressing cotton, would put a prem- ^B
ium upon it.

Montgomery, January ♦.—(Special.)
