 Resolutions adopted today by the Missouri progressives include the fol- lowing:
 We see nothing in the present atti- tude of either of the old parties that holds out any promise for the future. As in the 1912 campaign. the powers of graft and special privilege are in control of the old party organization and are openly preparing to write platforms and nominate candidates in harmony with their interests
 We therefore stand sqrarely on our national platform of 1912 and favor the nomination of national, state and cCunty tickets on that platform"

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2O-The pro- gram of official entertainments at the White House, which will be resumed this winter after lapse of a year. was announced tonight. The program shows several changes from that of previous ears, due mostly to the European war. The series of dinners and receptions will not begin until January 7. after the marriage of President Wilson to Mrs. Norman Gait and the new mis- tress of the White House will take her place at all of them.
 The big New Year reception, at which presidents in past years have been accustomed to receive diplomats, officials. army and navy officers, members of many patriotic organiza = tions, and all citizens who presented themselves will be omitted as it has been for the last two years. The president and Mrs. Gait, probably will be away on their honeymoon on that day.
 The principal changes in the pro- gram this year will be the concelling of the diplomatic reception and the substitution of two diplomatic dinners for the one usually held This de- parture was decided on because of the impossibility of inviting diplomats

LONDON, Nov. 2o-The present military sItuatlon Tn Serbia which appears to make Serbian retreat into Greek territory almost inevi- table. will the belief IS confidently expressed here, force Greece within twenty -four hours to abandon the ambiguous attitude which has been cause of uneasiness both to the triple entente and the central pow CTS and declare some definite intel
 ligible policy. Such a policy, even If it is adverse to the entente allies will at least be welcomed here as an end to the torturing uncertainty of the past month.
 Some comfort is derived here from the optimistic tone of dispatches from Athens which, since the arrival of Denys Cochin, the French cabinet member. who went to Greece on d special mission report that public opinion is running strongly for the entente allies But since it is a well known fact that King Constantine's choice waiting upon the outcome of military events which at present would hardly impress him in favor of the entente allies, there is no real expectation in London that Greek assistance will he forthcom- ing.
 It Is already announced from Ger man sources that the Greek govern ment has informed the foreign diDlo- mats that in order to maintain neu- tralitY. il will disarm and intern all Serbian troops which may retreat on to Greek territory. It also is stated in German newspapers that Alban- ian troops are trying 10 bar the other road of retreat by cOncen- trating on the Serbian border
 The Bulgarian successes at Katch- anik pass, Tetovo and Babuna pass have now been confirmed and the Kussovo plateau. where the Serbians expected to make a last desperate resistance, is now apparently open to the invaders.

CROWD TREATED ]. ID QUICK WORK . BY AUTO P|TMEN

The race was not won in pits. Far be it from such. Although the motor cycles and cars were constant callers, there was nothing more serious than little engine trouble on Montgomery's rart. and tire changes on the part of other contestants.
 Changing tires was where the auto men shone It made the eyes pop out when a big racer would come flashing into the pits. and before the uninitiat- cd had become aware what was the matter. they were off again With brand new tine. one car changed three tires. in about 1-100 the time it takes the average motorist to get started at changing one.
 Great preparations had been made by all the drivers and mechanicians to take care of any contingency that might pop up. Tires by the score were laid out ready for use. All varieties of parts were in evidence as was soCdiy supply Of oil and gas. The latter quantities were not needed by the four wheelers. but the motorcycles were forced to slow up occasionally. and tank up.
 The manner in which the auto driv- ers disregarded the value Of an auto tire seemed like Wonton waste to many 0f the onlookers. It was the habit when 2 tire was getting soft. to pull up at the pits, and with an exceedingly sharp knife puncture the defaulting tire. In case it wouldn't behave itself. the helper would use the knife to better effect and slash the casing to ribbons in getting it off. But time was money, and sacrificing one or more tires was q small matter.
 Earl Cooper. whose car was equipped with demountabIe wire wheels. prob ably made the quickest time in chang ing. He dashed into the pits when he was near the head of the game, with 8 soft one. The mechanician was out of the car. Cooper after him on the jump. The wheel was trisked off in about two seconds and in another two or three. Cooper was at the wheel, waiting for his man to finish tighten ing up the wheel. Before the mechan-

RODRIGUEZ BUSHES
 TO ASSISTANCE
Villa Forces at Cananea Break Through Gordon Placed Around Them by Obregon and Hurry to Give Aid
ERepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

DOUGLAS, 'Ariz. Nov. 20.-The fore es of General Francisco Villa are re- treating from Hermosillo, leaving one thousand dead, wounded and captured, according to official Carranza reports. Villa forces of General Jose Rodri- guez have broken through the cordon placed around Cananea by General Obregon and are rushing to the az sistance of Villa.
 General Obregon in messages early tonight stated his forces were gather ing at Molina, on the Del Rio Nogales branch of the Southern Pacific rail- road. At Molina. he said he found ten wrecked cars of copper bullion. sup- posedIy stolen by the Villa troops early in the week from the Capanea Copper company at Canauea.
 The retreating Villa forces are be ing hotly pursued by General Dieguet, Carranza defender of the capitol. Some of the retreating troops had reached as far north as Imuris. by railroad and General Obregon has diverted his troops attacking Cananea. to the west to cut off the escape of Villas men to NogaIes.
 General Dieguez reporting to General Obregcn tonight stated that a sortie from Hermosillo after fighting the combined forces Of Villa and Urbalejo at Alamito 2S miles north of Hermo- sillo. drove the Villa troops northward. leaving six hundred dead on the field the Carranza loss being If officers killed and wounded and 150 men killed and wounded.
 General Obregon reported from Del Rio that General Rodriguez with all his force at Cananea, penetrated with 1900 cavalry Of Colonel Cardenas al Puer tocitos, eight miles southwest of Ca nanea today and took the road for Imuris. on the main line of the South ern Pacific to Hermosillo where Villa is being driven to Nogales.
 General Obregon advised that he had collected all of his forces and was all. ready marching on Nogales. leaving 9 strong garrison in Cananea and had ordered Dieguez to pursue Villas troops closely. General Obregon said that his own cavalry should reach No gales by Monday morning and block the way of the Villa army to the bor der
 The occupation of Cananea by the Obregon forces is being celebrated to- night in Agua Prieta. A message re ceived by the military commander in Asua Prieta from General Obregon an nounced that Carranza troops had entered Cdnanea. II is not known here whether General Jose Rodriguez and the Villa garrison at Cananea broke through or Were allowed to pass through the Carranza lines. Well in formed circles here believe the latter was quite probable. A strict censor ship is maintained and little is allowed to leak out concerning the movements of the Carranza forces
 The same secrecy shrouds the move ments of General Villa and a telephone message tonight indicates that com munication between the general and the border has been severed. A singl. wire is working south of Nogales. but how far it extends is known only to the Villa officers. When the wire is Nsed. a cordCn of troops is drawn around the telegraph office to prevent
