 South of Gorizia the Austrian line was broken between Tobar and Yer toiba. according to Rome. and on the Carso front entrenchments between the Nipacco river and hill POS were cap tured Here the town of Novavilla and a strong position around the northern part of the hill fell into the hands of the attackers. Trenches in the Tren- tipo region also have been won by the Italians and 520 Austrians made prisoner

NUT YET SURE
 OF VIOLATION
 OF NEUTRALITY
TRepubllcan A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-The policy of the United States regarding the recent U-boat raid off the New Eng land coast will not be determined until much more complete information as to all the facts has been received. This was announced by Secretary Lansing tonight after his return from his con ference on the subject with President Wilson at Shadow Lawn.
 Although the secretary declined to elaborate on his statement, other of ficials indicated that much would de- pend on Rear Admiral Knights forth coming report on all the naval phases of the raid, particularly the steps taken to insure the safety of passengers There was every evidence that Secre- tary Lansing had gone to see the presi- dent more to discuss possible eventu- alities. and to prepare against them than with the idea of making a definite decision.
 The secretary was emphatic in de- claring that the governments attitude would remain undetermined until a complete investigation had been made. but he would not indicate what i'm pressions he had gained from the presi- dent, with whom final decision rests. ( Officials here expect that the report from Rear Admiral Knight will be ready for consideration within few days. It Is emphasized that the gov ernment is making every effort to com plete it's inquiry as soon as possible, but that it wants to avoid a hasty or ill-advised decision in so important a matter.
 Whether the German commander took proper care for the safety of the persons he put into small boats from the attacked vessels is a question in vOlving points on which officials be- lieve there Is no clear precedent and on which a decision by the United l States might approximate a precedent 1 at least so far as concerns any further l submarine operations Germany may contemplate on this side of the At l lantic.
 i Before any policy is determined upon it is expected that the opinion of tn, | neutrality board. created at the be 1 ginning of the war to advise the stat,
 department in regard to such ques | tions, will be discussed. Any decision
 it renders will be submitted to Secre
 tary Lansing but will not be binding
 Much significance is attached to tn
 findings of this board which in the Alp
 pam case for instance, laid down tn policy approved by the department am
 upheld in the courts.
 Considerable interest centers on tn ! continued silence of the allied em l bassies. Again today it was state

 CHARLESTON, w. Va, Oct. H. Charles E. Hughes, in his twelve hour campaign tour through West Virginia today, outlined before audiences his policy towards the maintenance of American rights, declared that in stat ing his stand he had mo agreements with anybody" and referred to the United States as being before the world, a great neutral nation, to vim dicate the integrity of international law and the rights of neutrals." To an audience at Parkersburg, MT Hughes said: T stand for the devel- opment of the American nation, ac- cording to the genius of it's institu- tions; for the honor of our country in the protection of American citizens and with respect to every American right on land and sea, for it's firm enforce ment.
 We are before the world, a great neutral nation, to vindicate the integ- rity of international law, the rights of neutrals and 1 stand unflinchingly for the maintenance of the rights of American citizens with respect to life. property and commerce" In repeating these statements here tonight, the nominee coupled with them a statement made earlier in the day before an audience at Parkersburg: q have no understandings, no agree ments no intrigues with anybody" he said. But l stand for the interests of the United States and the protection of American lives, American property and American commerce throughout the world"
 | A man in the Huntington audience shouted to MT. Hughes: What about ! the Virginia debt case?" The Virginia debt, sir is a matter" MT. Hughes replied, quietly, ito which the supreme court of the United States gave it's best consideration, a decision which you and everybody else ought to respect"
 A roar of applause greeted this statement.
 We are dealing with the record of the present administration" said Mir Hughes When that administrations record is examined it's defenders seem to protest as though it were a subject which should not be criticised. We cannot make progress in that way.
 'I desire to consider some of the !, actions which have been taken in or der that we may make fair estimate. The other day it was said that the alternative of the present policy of the administration was war, that any one who undertook to criticise that action must necessarily favor war. I am man of peace and it is because I desire to see American peace safe guarded that 1 insist upon firm and unflinching maintenance of American rights and such policies as will de- serve and hold the esteem of the entire world
 The policy of a sound enforcement of known rights is not a policy of war

ADVISORY COMMISSION NAMED
 TO NATIONAL DEFENSE COUNCIL

homie point of view, there is now very little difference between the ma chinery required for commercial eff ficiency and that required for military purposes. In both cases the whole industrial mechanism must be organ ized in the most effective way. Upon this conception of the national wei fare, the council is organized, in the words of the act, for the creation of relations which will render possible in time of need the immediate con- centration and utilization of the re- sources of the nation The organi Zation of the co1ncil likewise opens rp ( rew and direct channel of com T1unie; ton and co-0perahon between business and scientific men and all ,7coa- tments of the government, and t is hoped that it will, in addition. ieconr a raIlying point for civic
 odiea working for the national de-
 fcnse.
 "The councils chief functions are:
 T. The co-ordination of all forms of transportation and the develop
 ment of means of transportation to
 meet the military, industrial and commercial needs of the nation.
 "2. The extension of the industrial
 mobilization work of the committee
 on industrial preparedness of the naval consulting boards. Complete
 information as to our present manu- featuring and producing facilities adaptable to many-sided uses of mod ern warfare will be procured. anal
 yzed and made use of. -.r-l@-
 'One of the objects of the council will be to inform American manufac- turers as to the part they can and
 must play in a national emergency. It is empowered to maintain an auX1 Hilary organization composed of men
 capable of mobilizing to the utmost 1 the resources of the country. Tine personnel of the councils ad- visory members. appointed without regard to party, marks the entrance of the non-partisan engineer and pro- fessional man into American govern mental affairs of a wider scale than ever before. It is responsive to the increased demand for and need of business organization in public mat 1 ters and for the presence there of the best specialists on their respec- tive fields. In the present instance the time of some of the members O. the advisory board could not be pur- chased. They serve the government without remuneration, efficiency be- 1 ing their sole object and Americanism their only motive"

 SubMayine ISsue
Republican A. p. Leased wlrel

BERLIN. Oct. Il. D. m. tvia Lon don, Oct. F, PAS a. m.)-The session of the reichstag today was barren of sensational developments with regard to the submarine issue. The subject was introduced with the announcement that the conservatives and radical so- cialists insisted on a discussion of it, but Count Friederich Won Westarp, one of the conservative leaders. merely re- affirmed the conservative belief that the use of unrestricted submarine war fare was absolutely called for in order to attain speedy and victorious peace against England" He refrained in the public interest from discussing his mo-
 tives and reasons for desiring subma-
 rine warfare, he said.
 Under the circumstances, the ammu-
 milton of the radical socialist Hugo
 Haase against ruthless submarine
 methods were fired in the air The other speakers in addition to the com-
 mittee, avoided almost entirely the del- icate ground the debate brought out, but there were oft heard charges that the chancellor's opponents were waging war against Dr. Won Bethmann- Holl- wee for shady selfish motives, and counter assertions that they were n- spired by no hostility to Chancellor Hollweg but by desire for the veal of
 the fatherland and the fact that vir- tually all the parties consider England 1 the great and important enemy against which the sharpest war should be waged
 In general, the fortnight's deiber- ations in committee and today's debate | in the reichstag seem to have left the submarine issue virtually where 1t was ' before the reichstag convened. The
 reichstag has not spoken for or against
 a change in the present submarine pol | icy, and neither has it condemned nor approved the opposition to the chan celor's policies. which will continue to 1 be conceded outside the parliament by
 the same methods as previously pre- vailed.
 Dr. Won Bethmann- Hollweg was present during the debate but found nc reason to intervene. He seems still tC | be in control of the situation in which the Associated Press is reliably in formed there is no immediate prospect of a change as the government does
 not contemplate any alteration in its
 policy.
