TRYING TO DEDAUCH
NATIONAL ELECTION
$4,000 Negroes Sent Into
Middle States to Defeat
Will Of Voters

Washington, Nov. 3.-Plans on huge
scales to violate the election laws. in
cluding the transportation of 10000
negroes into Indiana, Ohio, Illinois and
other middle western states have been
uncovered by department of justice in
vestigators the attorney general an
nOunced late today.
Many of the negroes have registered.
intending to vote despite the fact that
they have been in the north only three
months, it was said.
Plans to register non-naturalzcd
citizens, "false registration by padding
registration lists with fictitious names
with the intention of having other per.
sons use the names; false counts and
returns by election boards; entering on
poll books as having voted fictitious
person or persons who have failed to
vote and intimidations in various
forms" are recited by the department.
The intimidation largely has been by
employers who threaten to close fac.
tories and shops if opposition candi-
dates are elected
In one city the department stated,
evidence already has been obtained
that false registration totals thousands.
The attorney general refused to name
the city.
Laws are cited by the attorney gem
eral that will permit the prosecution of
all intended frauds, even though an
covert act' has not been committed.

PROTECT SOLDIERS
WITH CURTAIN FIRE
French Have System Per-

By Henry Wood

(united Press staff correspondent
With the French Armies ON the Som.
me, Oct. l6.-(By maiD-French artil.
lerymen fighting on the Somme have
developed their barrage and curtain
fire to wonderful degree of perfcc.
ton. French soldiers now dash to the
assault of German positions under pro-
lection of solid sheet of artillery fire
that often preccdes them by not more
than 200 feet,
The curtain of exploding shells
moves steadily forward, not only
screening them completely from the
fire of the enemy but wiping out every
remaining obstacle and every remaining
German that may still be in its path.
When finally thev reach and capture
a position, the curtain fire keeps just
IN front of them, offering protection
from counter attacks until the new po-
sition can be thoroughly organized
Early in the war when the French
first began the development of curtain
fire, distance of 600 to 700 feet in
front of the advancing infantry was
considered absolutely necessary to
make certain that the troops might not
by a sudden dash forward, run into
their own fires. But French aeroplane
observers have so improved their meth
ods and artillcrymen have become skill
full that the distance has been reduced
by two thirds.
Every time French infantry now
move to the attack score of observa-
tion aeroplanes hover constantly over
them and with their wireless apparatus
tell the artillerymen where to place the
curtain of bursting shells.
