VIGOROUS EFFORT TO
BOOST AMENDMENT
l. and II. League and Other Propoh.
ents Plan to Get Measure Before
Entire State Before Tuesday.

Little Rock, Oct. 31-A vigorous eff
fort is being made during the final
days of the campaign to get Amend
ment No. properly before the peo-
pie. Some OF the great direct legis-
}ation advocates of the country are
interested in the project. The prin-
c:pal effort is to overcome the idea
advanced by the "drys" that if the
amendment is adopted it will open
Up the saloons.
The amendment has been thorough
ly studied and analysed by Hon. w. j.
Bryan, who approves it in every par
tciular thereby expressing his opin-
ion, in common with Congressman T..
H. Caraway, that there is no joker in
the amendment. Col Bryan, now cam
paigning in Nebraska, has consented
to deliver long distance telephone
address to the people of Arkansas
next Friday night, in support Of the
amendment, and telling why it should
be adopted. He made a tour of the
state in 1910 to advocate the original
/. and r. amendment. Senator La
Toilette has endorsed it, and Senator
Robert L. Owen of Oklahoma will ar
rive Thursday morning from Phoenix,
to spend three days campaigning in
Arkansas for No. IL. He cancelled
dates in California in order to fill this
engagement. His itinerary will not
be fixed for several days, but it is sure
that he will speak in Little Rock.
Col. w. J. Bryan wires that Amend
ment No. 10 should be adopted unanl-
mously." He endorses it heartily.

! October losses of 107,033 bring up
the total British casualties for the
four months OF the Somme offensive
to 414,202. The daily average loss Of
October is 1882.
The British figures are of espec-
lal interest on account of their bearing
ON the controversy between London
and Berlin regarding the losses of the
allies on the Somme. Statements in
October from the German war office
dwell on the sacrifices of the British
and French to obtain a comparatively
small amount of territory. 1t was said
they had made desperate efforts to
break through the German lines, hur-
| ling forward great bodies Of troops
and sustaining enormous losses. On
one occasion the British war office de-
MED statement of this nature from
Berlin.
Unofficial advices from British sour
ces stated the losses to the allies rel
alive to those of the Germans and to
the operations undertaken were de-
creasing to a marked extent on ac-
count of increased efficiency of the az
tillery and aerial services.
So far as is shown by the London
figures, which, Of course, take no ac-
count of the French casualties, the
losses of the British have been de-
creasing since August. The total re-
ported for September was 1850, or
a daily average of more than $500.
In August, the total was 127,945, a
daily average of 4,127. In July, how
ever, the casualties reported were only
59,675.
