Washington, Oct. 16.-The average
citizen constantly Is being forced in
to lower standard OF living because
the increase In prices continues. while
wages have not kept apace, according
to Frank Persons. economist, who an
nounced this today as the result Of
a series Of Investigations.
Persons said his investigations
showed family OF five can not live

declared. is equivalent in purchasing

DESTROYERS WERE
READY FOR ACTION

Washington. Oct, ia supersti-
tion almost as old as the navy was
responsible for the United States
destroyers being prepared for action
when they sailed on sudden orders
from Newport October Z, This was
explained today at the navy depart
ment, In connection with the publi-
cation OF a letter from a lieutenant
on the destroyer Benham telling OF
this preparedness.
The navy never has forgotten the
Chesapeake, The old man -of-war
Chesapeake sailed from Baltimore in
time of peace In 1907 without max
Ing preparations for war, With her
decks stored with chicken coops and
other paraphernalia OF peace, she met
a British man-of-war that was ready
for battle. The Chesapeake was
searched and turned ANONYMOUSLY
back to port.
"Slnce then" Il was said, when
ever a navy vessel goes out on u
cruise II Ia ready for action"
The fact that the destroyers did
not know when they left Newport
what was going to develop whether
they might be attacked or whether
there had been violation OF this coun-
try's neutrality---was another factor
In the preparedness, They sailed
with almost no notice, knowing only
that merchant and passenger vessels
were being torpedoed, They did not
know vt that time whether they were
golng os nghting vessels or as rescue
ships They remembered the Chesa-

London. Oct. 16.--Teutonlc troops
have broken through Gymes pass and
invaded northwestern Roumania, ac-
cording to Berlin dispatches today.
Severe fighting is going on on
Roumanian soil near the town OF Pal

main railway line supplying the
northern Roumanian armies.
In the extreme north. near the
Bukovinian frontier. the Roumanians
are falling back upon their own bor-
der. but along the whole southern
frontier OF Pennsylvania they are Wig
orously counter-attacking. Southeast

wrested the Initiative from the
Austro-German army that attempted
TO march southwark into Roumania
and have won local successes.
The lighting in southern Transyl-
vauia is becowing more violent In
the region north OF vulkan pass.
There the Ronmanians are pressing
their counter-attacks and have
thrown back Austrian troops for a
considerable distance.

Chinese mothers as a rule are
ideal. They remain at home more
than any other nationality, and natu-
rally have always learned to take ex-

there are always certain points that
can be made in introducing new fea-

operate IN every plan for the benefit
of the child" says Col Gen. ID. j.
Wudan in an article in the Liberty

Urging that pure milk be secured
for the babies, and that a society be
organized to work for the best inter

assist in every manner possible to
further the interests Of the Better
Babies, Better Citizens campaign.
According to the editorial Chinesa
women have not organized a women'S
society and they are urged to work
together in some form to further the
work. 1t Is to the best interests IF
the Chinese women to take the best
ideas of the other nationalities and
use them with their own ways
which have proved to be. sound in

Who is going to be the next chair

y Tlfis is a question that is worrying
a number of the members of the board
of supervisors, and may precipitate a
row. Some of the supervisors have
been told that the mayUr expects that

j. Supervisor Arnold refused to say
that he would make a campaign fer
the road craftsmanship, but he would
not say that he would decline it
either. That is for the board to de-
eide" he said. IF anyone else tries
to dictate to the board I'll fight Out
side Of that have nothing to say"
William Larsen, chairman of the
water and sewer committee, is named
as one Of the likely candidates for the
job and 1t is rumored that Arnold is
the man who picked him for it. If
Larsen was named as roads chairman
it is probable that he would resign
from the water and sewers commit
tee as the work on both would be too
heavy. That would necessitate other
changes. " b
