CHICAGO. Nov. 15.-Members of the Federal Trade commission have arrived in this city and will imme- diately begin to hold daily sessions the purpose of which is to investigate the high cost of food products and coal

PARIS, Nov. 15.-Yesterday the Germans began a series of attacks on the French lines in the Champai gn district and were in each case repulsed according to official reports.
 The strategical meaning of the Ger man renewal of a strong offensive in this district is that the German staff wants to divert the allied pressure from the Verdun and Somme fronts in order that time may be gained to reform and strengthen the shattered German lines.

HEROES ARE SADLY LACKING
Few Generals Are Mentioned in Sto.
res of Conflict in Europe-Army
Is Like Machine.

Most amazing Of all the wonderful
things about this war is the extremely
few names of generals we ever hear
about, writes Girard in the Philadel-
phia Ledger.
one Italian, a couple of English, two
or three t'renchmen, four Germans and
the same number of Russians, and not
one Turk. That makes up the list az
ter two years of fighting and with
25,OOo000 soldiers under arms.
The vast armies are moved like ma
chimes. Hardly reputation for any
individual anywhere.
What different story in Napoleon's
day, He made four kings, a viceroy,
a crown prince, five other princes and
twenty-one dukes.
The names of some Of his marshals
are almost as we'll known as that of
Bonaparte himself. So, too, in our
revolution.
washington and His Generals" is
the name of a once popular book. and
the generals are known to millions of
oolchildren-Greene, Wayne, Put
nam. Knox and Lee.
The South as well as the North had
lots of heroes in the '60s-Lee. Jack
son, Johnson, Bragg, Beauregard, Stu
art, Hill, Pickett, and Grant. Sherman,
Sheridan. Meade, Thomas, Hancock
and host OF others, almost as much
talked about as the supreme comman-
ders themselves.
But this is war minus heroes, and
that is the worst part of it, because
hero-making was about the best a war
ever did.
