American Pipe f: In Jerusalem \\ ' yv if. s st pel npwh ) Gufis and ammunition have boen the I a h t w?r<J in winning hattleH, but 'behind the guns are live men. Men cannot stay alive long without wuter to drink?there Is no water In a desert. That was the situation when National Pipe came to the rescue In one of the Kreat Eastern cmnpalgUH of the World War and conveyed water all the wuy across a wide desert to keep the British troop going. In the campaign that led to the capture of Jerusalem from the Turks, General Edmund Allenby and the Egyptian Expeditionary Force first had to cross a barren, trackless waste ?the Hlnal Desert. The sinister character of this desert Is familiar to us, If we recall a certain episode In our Old Testament. The Bible tells lis that the Israelites, fleeing from the Egyptians, had been sufely conducted between the parted waters of the Red Sea only to find themselves lost in a hopeless wilderness where there was neither food nor water Their thirst was <iuen< hed by water which gushed from a ro< k. which Moses, Inspired by Providence, had struck with his rod. Their hunger was satisfied by manna sent from Heaven. Ever since, I the Hebrew people have celebrated' the flight from Egypt by the feast of j the Passover when they eat unleav- j ened bread reminding them of thej manna that sustained their forefathers in the Sinai Desert. In HiltJ, the Sinai Desert was Ju^t I as formidable to the British troops as It had been to the wandering children ot Israel, Abundant supplies were necessary to carry the army through the desert. But the heavy motor lorries in which they were customarily transported sank so deep into the soft sands that they were abandoned at the edge of the desert. Consequently a railroad had to be built to convey the supplies across the desert An accompanying pipe line was laid along the railroad to supply fresh water to the troop as the water supply in Sinai was too brackish for constant drinking by the men. Even the railway locomotives could not use it long without loss of efficiency. 1 he pipe line ran all the way back to the Sweetwater Canal, flowing from the Nile to the Suez Canal. Large reservoirs and a pumping station were built and the water was forced through 12-inch National pipe to tiie railhead. The British forces could advance] only as far as the completed railroad and pipe line, and crawled along at a snail's pace, covering twenty miles a month. 'I he first lap of the Journey j brought them to 'El Arish. near the Egyptian border, where they won their first engagement with the Turks. '1 his gave them control of the Sinai Desert In 1 ill 7. the pipe line was extended to (Jaza in Palestine, to sup-' ply the troops mustering for the Onal nttaik on Jerusalem. At the end of tile year, the city foil Majcr Dell.-Ml Maurice, chief illiciloi ot military operations at the Pri'ish War Office, gave high praise to llic pa 11 pl.i > ed b\ the des.'rt pipe m the conquest of Jerusalem.

FOREIGN BORN POPULATION LOW IN SOUTH CAROLINA Columbia, June 29.?South Caroilia * percentage of foreign born popilation is lower than that of any stute In the nation except North Carolina, according to Professor Julian J. Petty of the University of South Carolina, who iu making an extensive population Btudy for the state planning board. Iu 1930 there were only 6,310 foreign born in the Btate, white or of foreign and mixed parentage. This was but 1.1 per cent of the total population. ,Germany, Greece, Russia, Poland, England, Palestine and Syria furnished the state with 66 per cent of its foreign born population. Nine cities in the state with a population of 10,000 or more contained 68 per cent of South Carolina's foreign born white population in 1930. Charleston led all the cities with 31 per cent of the total foreign born population. Columbia had 10 per cent. Representative Fish, Republican of New York, suggests that congressional investigators of the alleged tax (lodgers scrutinize the Income tax returns of President Roosevelt. He said ho had information from a "reliable authority," that Mr. Roosevelt had deducted losses on his "so-called farm at Hyde Park," New York. In reality, he said, it "is not a farm, but a palatial residence." Twin boys were born to Mrs. Max Las-ky by a Caesarian operation at Los Angeles, Cal. The ratio of such operation to normal births is one in a million, declared the attending surgeon. Cecil de MUle, movie producer, haa been named among the very1 wealthy uh being an Income tax evador, it being alleged that he formed a corporation "which he completely dominated, including members of hla family and attorney."
