Berlin, Oct. 24.-Two powerful ar
mics that are attacking from east
and west are threatening the crush
Roumania in a mighty wise and put
her out Of the war before winter
comes.
Gen. Mackensen's German, Bulga
rian and Turkish forces have captured
nearly one-third OF the Constanza-
Cernavoda railway and are pressing
upon Cernavoda itself. The Rouman-
ians evacuated Constanza, falling back
haess1t ape annihilation.
On the Roumanian western front
Gen. Falkenhayn's armies have resum-
ed their offensive. 1t is believed here
that serious riots will occur in Buch-
Arrest when news OF the loss of Rou-
mania's only seaport is published
Mackensun's easy victory at Con
stanza was due partly to the lack Of
artillery on the part of the Russo-Rou-
manian forces. it is understood here.
When Falkenhayn's guns in the Dob
ruja were brought to the Transyl-
vanian passes, the Russians brought
infantry endorsements into the Dob
ruja but were unable to bring adequate
artillery equipment.
The drive to victory over the Rou-
manians is expected to stifIe the ef-
forts of the allies to win the armed
support of Greece.

Urges Need of Moderation.

"In the history of the republic we
have kept on our course by not going
to the extreme on any hand. We
should see to it that we do not go to
the extreme on this question of pre-
paredness.
Il want to see introduced in the col
legeS and schools of the country that
kind of education that will teach our
young men three important things
how to take care of their health; how
to obey orders, and how to shoot a
gun
II am especially anxious that the
question of taxation in the District OF
Columbia be settled during the present
session of Congress-" said Representa-
tive Lloyd in his address to the board.
1T is more important to settle this
matter of taxation than that it should
be fixed on a basis of fifty and fifty
What you want is a thorough investi-
cation by Congress of the matter of
taxation in the District, that fair
rate be fixed, and that the entire mat
ter then be considered settled for a pc
Rod of not less than twenty-five years
The splendid investigation which has
been made by the joint committee and
the report which it made has given
Congress a sound basis on which to
work in the matter of taxation"
