London, Dec. 26.---ltaly's occ,tpa-
tion of the Albanian port of Aylona,
although declared to be solely for
the purpose OF protecting Italian in
terests There, is believed here TO
open up possibilities OF complica-
tions which may make 1t difficult for
the Rome government to maintain
neutrality. The seizure is believed
to be certain to enrage Austria.
Avlona is directly across the Adri-
attic from Otranto. on the heel OF the
Italian boot. Reports say no fight
ing occurred when Italian marines
were landed there yesterday.
The attitude of Rumania, now
more than ever is matter of doubt,
since reports from Paris announce
that the only obstacle which pro
vented her from joining With the
triple entente had been removed.
Bulgaria is said to have given as
surances that she would remain neu-
tral, relieving Rumania from the
fear Of an attack from that quarter
should che enter the war.
Military activities continue on
both of the great battle fronts with
out decisive action at either. From
petrograd comes the news that Rus
sia has resumed the offensive at sew
eral points in Poland and that they
have captured no fewer than 1900
prisoners. Gen Won Hindenburg
still keeps hts bulldog grkp on the
Vistula. Paris reports slight pro-
gress from Nieuport on the west and
Germany balances this with claims
OF having taken some British
trenches,
An Austrian army is stni making
courageous effort to strike down
the Valley OF the Nida in the diree-
tion of Cracow. British Observers
are of the opiaion that this move

Why should American consumers be
compelled to pay tribute TO criminal
manufacturers Of foodstuns. This has
been a season OF agricultural prosperity.
We are at peace with all the world. Yet
under the protecting folds of the Ameri-
can flag criminal food manufacturers are
permitted to demand tribute from their
fellow American citizens. Unlike vultures
they feast upon the living, many OF whom
are left In destitute circumstances through
the cruelties Of war. Honorable, isn't III
