WILL FAMINE BEAT GERMANY
KAISER MAKING LAST ATTEMPT
TO WIN, SAYS PARIS.
This 10 Believed to Be Real Reason
for Balkan Drive-Reports Of
Food Shortage Grow.

Paris, Nov. 4.-That Germany, on
the point of being starved out, is max
ing last desperate attempt to win an
advantage decisive enough to incline
the Allies to peace, is the belief in
military and official circles here.
This is believed to be the real and
only reason for the Balkan drive. So
far Germany has won many victories,
but has failed to break the ring of iron
drawn by the Allies.
Reports of food shortage in Ger
many are growing more insistent. A
Geneva dispatch said that neutrals
were flocking into Switzerland from
Germany, driven by the high food
prices. This dispatch quotes the Neue
Zeitung of Strassburg as saying, under
the heading Can We Hold Out?"
Hardly had we crossed the thres-
hold of the second year of the wan
when, the question of bread and butt
ter settled, another anxiety faces u.s.
namely, the dearness of the first neces4
sites in the matter of food Will our
enemies succeed in defeating Germany

PAYING THE PRICE

Red Wing Daily Eagle: One man,
who doesn't believe that marriage is
all that it is cracked up to be, from,
a financial point Of view, e1emplifies
as follows:
"Twenty years ago I bought pair
of So kid gloves. My SALARY was $18
a month and board. Five years later
I found myself with a salary of 80
month, good wife ana both of us
to feed and clothe. I bought myself
a pair of 81 gloves. Five years later
there were two children also, my sal
ary was $75 month and I found that
50-cent pair Of yarn mittens about
fitted my case. Five years after that
my salary had increased to 500 each
month, my family numbered three be-
sides myself and wife and a pair Of
25-cent mittens covered up my hands.
This year I find myself 40 years old,
drawing a salary Of 1925 a month,
four children, one good old wife and
durn my skin, went down town and
bought me a pair of cotton flannel
gloves 10 cents pair, 6 for so cents. -
The woman he married probably
could tell a story of similar purport
in her own case.

Douglas, ArIz., Nov. 4.-General
Francisco Villa, forced by hunger,
thirst and scanty supply Of ammunI.
ton to abandon hic plan for an imme-
date assault on Aqua Prieta, has com.
menced withdrawing his army and
most Of his force is moving toward
Anavacachi pass, IL miles southwest.
Douglas, Ariz., Nov. 4.-The Villa
army commenced moving away from
Aqua Prieta toward Naco and that
town reported later that 500 Villa
troops already had arrived there. Ap.
proximately 1000 others were said to
have been seen along the road leading
toward Naco.
1t is known, too, that Villa agents
have been endeavoring to purchase
much needed supplies of -four and corn
and preparations have been made at
Naco to take care of those wounded
IN Mondays fight around Aqua Prieta.
On the other hand, General Gales
scouts report that the main body Of
Villas army, REINFORCED during the
day by an unknown number of men
from the east, is still within a few
miles of Aqua Prteta.
! Prepare for New Attack.
Every preparation was made in Aqua
Prieta for another attack. General
Funston, commanding American forces
also made preparations by posting
troops at vantage points in Douglas
and moving them away from immo.
date contact with the border.
The general opinion among Ameri.
can army officers is that Villa, after
his army is thoroughly rested and
provisioned, will give up his attack
on Aqua Prieta and will strike down
through Hermisillo and Magdalena to
the west coast for campaign Of much
greater Importance.

OIL az Fuel Satisfactory.

Particularly satisfactory to them, It
was said, was the demonstration Of
the use of oil as fuel, as the Nevada
Ii the first battleshtp Of the navy to
be supplied with that source of power.
The oil burners, it was pointed out,
not only drove the ship At speed in
excess of the contract requirements,
but also decreased greatly the volume
Of smoke, thereby improving the bat
tie efficiency of the dreadnaught by
making it less conspicuous in action.
