PRESIDENTS NOTE IS
 SINKING INTO BRITISH
THE WEEKLY NATION TAKES THE VIEW THAT MIR. WILSON IS PERFORMING THE DUTY
 OF A NEUTRAL.

London, Des .29.-~The Weekly Ma tion in referring to President Will sons note asking what the belligerent overs reqgire for the conclusi of feaco, takes the view that Mr. Wilson ls exercising the right and performing the duty laid upon neutral by The Hague convention and says that his communication has been stupid!y re- ceiNed by the British press. Presi- dent Wilson knows encpsh of history and o human nature mt to be dis cotraged by the fact that his efforts to do the bellige.ents a good turn has been misunderstood by enc side and evaded by the other, the Nation adds.
 When prairie fire is raging q planter has the right and duty to Cook to his own homestead," the Nation continues. "A confederation enye,cp ing human society is no domestic broil, as with all it's indirect conse- Quences 10 mankind, was the Ameri- can civil war This war is d flame which daily deyours or deterio2ates the worlds stock of labor, food raw materials and implements Of indus try including America's share Of these necessities, while at least one oi it's possible and even early develop ments threatens her .eace.

Pressing in upon Southo>n Molda- via from three sides apparently with )all their vigor, the forces of the cen tral powers are making progress against stiff resistance. On the Tran sylyanian n4Moldavian frontier, in the region north of Rimnik-Sarat and in fhe Dobrudja opposite Braila, Berlin reports the Austro-German and Bull garians troops are advancing.
 A new thrust seemingly has been started by the Austro-Germans along the Moldavian frontier, thus adding to the difficulties of Inc Russians and Rumanians, already hard pressed from the south and east Several lines of new positions and 1,400 prisoners were taken by the invaders in the first day of their offensive into Moldavia from the west. which may have for it's pur. pose the cutting off of the retreat of the Russo-Rumanian troops now oper- ating along the southern Moldavia 5orde,.

conclude that the Somme offensive not only relieved Verdun but held large forces which would otherwise have been employed against our allies in the east.
 "The third great object of the allied operations on the Somme was the wearing down of the enemy's powers of resistance. Any statement as to the extent to which this has been at. tained must depend in some degree on estimates. There is nevertheless suf- ficient evidence to place beyond doubt that the enemy's losses in men and material were very considerably higher than those of the allies. while morally the balance of advantage on our side Is still greater. During. the period under review steady deterior- ati0n took place in the morale of large numbers of the enemy's troops Many of them, it is true, fought with the greatest determination, even in the latest encounters, but the resist ance of even larger numbers became latterly decidedly more feeble than in the early stages of the battle.
 Aided by the great depth of his defenses and by frequent reliefs which his resources of men enabled him to effect, discipline and training held the machine together sufficiently 10 en- able the enemy to rally and reorgan. ize his troops after each fresh defeat. But toward the end of the operations, when the weather unfortunately broke there is no doubt that his power of resistance very seriously diminished

BRIEF DEMANDS
|. & n. MACNATE
ANSWER QUERY

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-lnsisting
that Il Is illegal for railroad to have
any secrets from the people. Chief
Counsel Joseph w. Folk. on behalf Of
the interstate commerce commission.
today filed In the supreme court Of the
District OF Columbia brief In support
of the commissions petition asking
that Milton II. Smith, president Of the
Louisville 4 Nashville railway, be COM
PEELED to answer questions put to him
by the commission.
These interrogations pertain to al
legged political campaign contributions,
the hiring OF legislative lobbyists and
the using Of railroad funds to create
public sentiment In favor OF the rail-
road.
Follows Investigation.
The suit Is sequel to the investi-
cation OF the Louisville & Nashville
instigated following q resolution offer
ed by Senator Luke Lea of Tennessee,
and adopted by the senate, directing
an inquiry into the company's financial
affairs. Senator Lea personally filed
with the commission complaint al
leging that the railroad was using
passes and brides to corrupt politi.
clans in legislatures Of the states
through which the railroad operates.
President Smith of the Louisville &
Nashville, who has been chief execu-
tive OF the road since 1884, was a
picturesque witness at the investiga-
ton. He declined to give the COM
mission details of the roads financial
operations, declaring that a railroad
had two sides-a public and private
one-and that the privacy was invaded
by a governmental demand to know
what was done with the roads money.
Counsellor Folks brief argues that
the government has complete super
vision over interstate railroads, and
that no expenditure can be properly
deemed as private If the stockholders
money is spent. Without such super
vision, railroads can be wrecked and
stockholders ruined, the brief argues.
The court has set Wednesday, August
16, for oral argument Of the case

DIM YOUR HEADLIGHTS.
ULTImATum FROM CHIEF

Encouraged by the success Of their
campaign against those motorists who
persisted in operating their cars with
out state license plates. the police are
again to declare war on motorists who
insist on operating their machines
in the city at night without dimmed
headlights.
Calling reporters to his office this
morning, Chief of Police Goodwin re-
quested publication of an ultimatum
to the effect that beginning tonight
every motorist found operating a ma
chine without dimmed headlights
would be arrested and prosecuted in
city court.
Not one in ten thousand automo-
bile drivers observes the DINNER or
dinance and ! now intend to remind
them that such an ordinance is on
the statute books" the chief said.
Il expect that l have warned thous-
and automobile drivers in recent
months to drive with dimmed lights
but these warnings have not been
taken seriously. Now l am going to
force the observance of this ordin-
ance. The many accidents resulting
from drivers being blinded by glar-
ing headlights point to the necessity
of inforcing the DINNER law"
Chief Goodwin also announced that
the state law requiring automobiles
to come to a stop when a street car
in front of them stops was also to be
vigorously inforced.
About year ago wholesale arrests
we're made for violation of the DINNER
ordinance but these cases were never
prosecuted, the validity of the ordin-
ance being questioned. City author
