Roofing

takes its place in the SUM- and holds it longer
than other similar roofing, because it is made
of the very best quality roofing felt, thoroughly
saturated with the correct blend of soft asphats,
and coated with a blend of harder asphalts.
This outer coating keeps the inner saturation
soft, and prevents the drying out process so
destructive to the ordinary roof.
The blend of asphalts used by The General
is the result of long experience. 1t produces
a roofing more plable than those which have
less saturation, and which are, therefore,
harder and drier.
AT each of the Generals big mills, expert
chemists are constantly employed to refine,
test and blend the asphalts used; also to expert

as a precautionary measure to insure
the safety of the allies fleet"
Ii is explained that the dispatch of
artillery and ammunition to the in
terror, the movements of Greek ships
and the continued activity of the re-

a disturbance of order at points where
the allies war vessels are anchored
and also endanger the security of the

and Averoff and the dismantling OF

ABANDONED BOATS FOUND
May Indicate Kingstonian's Crew Has
Been Picked Up.

Newport. h. l., Oct 12--The find
ing OF five abandoned ships boats by
the Spanish steamer Antonio Lopez,
reported in a radio message relayed
to the naval station yesterday by the
Nantucket shoals Iightship, was con
sidered in naval circles as suggesting
a possible trace of the crew of the
steamship Kingstonian, reported tor
pedoed by a German submarine on
Sunday Search Tor the crew had
been suspended by the naval authori-
ties. who doubted whether the subma'
rnes victims included any vessel 9th
er than those whose crews had been
brought to port BY some the mes
sage was held to be far from conclu-
eive evidence that a sixth veseel was
sunk, the suggestion being made that
the boats may have been those from
which a crew, now ashore. was taken.
I'VE have found five abandoned
boats along a radius of three miles"
the message said The rest of the ra-
diogram was somewhat unintelligihle
because OF evident errors in transmits
sion AS received it read: "They had

impossible to read his names. One OF
them had painted word Liverpool.
All in good condition Radio oper-
ators could not suggest a word which
might sound like his" in wireless
waves.
Liverpool in the hailing port of the
steamship Kingstonian, and from
that fact naval officers developed the
possibility that the boats were from
that vessel. Liverpool also is the hail
ing port of the steamer West Point,
whose crew was rescued by torpedo
boat destroyer. Whether all the " st
Points boats are accounted for had
not been determined yesterday. The
statement that the missing boats were
in good shape was accepted as an in
dication that no harm had befallen
those who were in them. If the boats
were those of the Kingstonian it was
thought her crew probably was picked
up by an east-bcund vessel which will
land them on the other side.

WAR TO GO ON TILL

Sacrifices of Allies Must Not Have
Been Made in.vain
PREMIER ASKS FOR MORE MONEY
Struggle Has Cost More Than Entire
Expenses of Government for
20 Years.

London, Oct 12.-"This is no time
for faltering counsel or wavering pur-
pose" said Premier AsQuith in ad-
dressing the House Of Commons at
London yesterday. This war cannot
be allowed to end in some patched up,
precarious and dishonoring COM
promise masquerading under the name
of peace.
no one desires 10 prolong for )
single moment longer than is nece'
sary the tragic spectacle of Di0odshed
and destruction but we owe it to
those who have given their lives that
their supreme sacrifice shall not have
been unavailing.
"The ends of the allies are well
known They have been frequently
stated They are not seltsd, they
are not yindicthe: but they require
adequate reparation for the past and
adequate security for the future
The House cneered the premier
loudly as he made these remarks IN
concluding ms address after moving
vote of credit for e300,0OO.e9O.
bringing up the total for the current
financial year to el,350 100000. Par
lament, said the premier, had been
asked to vote for war purposes
what was equivalent to the aggre-
gate expenditure for % years before
the war. although that period in
cluded the South African war, When
he moved the last vote of credit in
july be estimated the average raie
of expenditure at approximately tJ.-
100000 daily That forecast had
proved to be almost exactly correct.
Surveying the progress of the war
since the last vote of credit, the pre-
mier said hot weather had hampered
operations in the secondary theaters
but that in Mesopotamia suostant al
progress had been made at rai' and
river communications and the health
of the troops had improved substan-
TALLY. The defeat of the Turks at the
Katia oasis east of the Suez canal
had gone far to remove the danger
of attack on the canal and aad im-
paired Turkish prestige in Arabia and
Syria. In western Egyp the Seuus-
81 tribesmen had been reduced to i'm
potence. The allied armies on the
Salonica front had inflicted heavy
losses on their opponents and pre-
vented them from transferring troops
TO Dobrudja, thus rendering valuable
assistance TO Russia and Rumania.
The whole of the German Eas-
African coats had Decn occuped. the
premier continued and the complete
conquest of the cJ,lny was only
matter of time. The premier save
high praise TO Gen. SHUTS and the
Belgian troops which are cooperating
with him.
In the west Mr. Asquith said the
French and British had advanced
distance of seven miles on front
of nine miles! but the most important
feature of the advance was that in no
case had a counter-attack succeeded
in driving them back. The Germans
had virtually abandoned the attack
on Verdun and their losses had been
very heavy. He gave the total mum
ber of prisoners taken by the allies on
the Somme front as 60,471 in addition
to which there had been captured 3O4
guns and 1880 machine guns.
