BRITISH JOURNAL THINKS
IT'S TIME U. S. INTERVIEWED

LONDON, Eng.-The Nation, an adj
yocate of a moderate" peace. des-
cribes the German chancellors recent
speech as a break in the clouds. :
The newspaper suggests that it offers
the Unied States an opportunity to
talk to Europe as follows:
The war has not been concluded,
hut your statesmen are beginning to
be talkative. Your ideas do not ap-
pear quite incompatible, for you all
seem to want peace and wish to base
it on Justice and a scheme of common
organization and counsel Can help
clarity them? I can take you a step
beyond. Your representatives assert
that they did not want the war and
that they have a common notion of
how they wish to live together after
the war. Can help find out for YOU
whether the security you all seek has
been advanced by your various defini-
tionS Of it?"
The Nation then adds:
1--WE could not resent such an atti.
tude, and If, as we believe. peace
should be moderate. as regards terri
tory and sweeping as regards the fu-
ture organization OF states, we should
have one substantial reason for well
coming it. For it is clear that force
alone cannot determine such change
in state relationship. II must be the
issue of good will.

BELGIUM MAY BE

WORK OF women
TBy Associated pressl

BERLIN, Germany-Women are
nov rendering invaluable aid in the
administrative work of Belgium. Gov
ern-General Won Kissing having avail
ed himself of as many female en-
ployes as were obtainable.
Several hundred of them have been
appointed as hygienic instructors. as
sanitary inspectors of homes and fac
tories and as enforcers of the sani
tary and other regulations introduced
b. the German regime. The women
also give special attention to measures
for combating the social evil.
At the outset it was found very
difficult to discover women trained
To this kind Of work. They have,
however, proved themselves extraor-
finarily adaptable and have come TO
be what Cen Kissing describes as a
hnmanizing INK between the Belgian
population and the governing ma,
chinery.
The system of social work evolved
in Belgium has succeeded to an extent
that it is felt it may become even
hialIy model for other countries and
a stimulus for such work in Germany
itself. The women have proved so
effective as Intermediates between
the bureaucracy and the people that
ii is now being urged that in future
every landrat tthe highest admins
trative official of a kreis or county,
should have on his staff specially
trained woman whose duties it would
be to look after the condition OF the
poor and to watch the operation oil
laws enacted for their benefit.
Those who have watched the actiy-
ity OF women in Belgium believe firm
ly that woman's activity in social di'
rections is to be UNNECESSARILY in
creased in Germany AS an indica-
ton of this there is the recent open,
ing of a department for the higher
social education of women at the adj
ministratiye high school of Cologne,
and institution for training city Off
Gals, where the women are taught to
co social welfare work.

CHICAGO, Hl-War against the
high cost of living became militant
here the other day with simultaneous
raids by the city health department
against three of the largest cold stor-
age warehouses in the city The raids
were 6ased on a city ordinance. long

ing to do about it?'' was the answer
Wetz gave to investigators who
sought to discover what quantity OF
foodstuffs was in storage in the pres
ent time of high prices.
The ordinance prohibits the storage
of eggs for more than ten months.
Examination showed that many mil
lions, including many stored by Wetz,
were put away in March and April.
"Wetz is obliged to throw these on
the market by January 21,'' said DIR.
John r. Robertson, health commits
sioner, land my advice to the people
is TO stop using eggs until he begins
to market them.
II will see that they are not held

ten months and that when they go on
the market they are fit for consump-
tion."

LCSDON, Eng. According to a
member of one of the largest women's
clubs in London the world soon will
see women smoking pipes III public.
Many society women already smoke
small pipes in the seclusion of their
own homes. Toward the close of the
18th century large number of Eng
fish women INDUCED freely in pipe
smoking. During the 18th century the
fashion abated, owing to the introduce
ticn of snuff Leading tobacconists

ste,s toward pipe smoking.

ing move in the second allied offensive.
Never in the war had allied prospects
looked darker than on May l. when the
Kut surrender, the Austrian advance,
the slow but sure German pressure at
Verdun all bore testimony to the
strength and to the seeming invinci-
bility of the arm sof the central powers,
and the press talked of a coming Ger
man attack upon Russia that should
carry to completion the work of the
previous summer and achieve at Mos
COW what had been missed at Warsaw.
The Irish rebellion added to the dis
NAL face of allied prospects. and even
the French press began to murmur at
the continued quiescence of British
armies and the magnitude of the blood
tax levied upon the sons of the re-
public.

CONFIDENT Of VICTORY
OVER TEUT0N|C NATIONS
Russian Minister of War Discusses
Conditions at End of Sec
ond Year.

PETROGRAD. July 29.-The present
strategic situation gives ground for the
conviction that complete victory in
the European war will be won by the
entente allies. declares Gen. d. S. Chou
ment made to the Associated Press on
the military situation at the close Of
the second year of the struggle.
'Uninterruptedly preparing during
forty years for an attack upon neigh
boring countries, the Austro-Germans
in the first period of the war;" said
Gen. Chouviaeff, were naturally SUI
perior to their opponents in the guam
tity of the means of warfare prepared
by them. But a desire to break the
thusiasm among the people of the
countries of the anti-German group,
which people, ardently taking up the
work of providing their armies with
short time new military Industrial
enterprises many times increasing the
former production.
Have Abundant Supplies.
THE end of the second year of thu
war was marked by the results of this>
patriotic upheaval among the allies
which found expression in a successful
adoption of the offensive by their ar
mics. now abundantly supplied with
war material and powerful artillery.
I'm complete unity with all the allies,
the Russian army a month and half
ago dealt a destructive blow from its
left flank, and from that time has un-
continued one blow after
another against the Austro-Hungar-
fans. In the same way, our Caucasus
troops are persisting In driving the
Turks from supposedly impregnable
heights in Asia Minor.
Thus at the beginning of the third
year of the war strategic conditions
which have now become favorable for
the allies on all the fronts, more than
ever give ground for the conviction
that complete victory will be gained
over the enemy"
