Several Hundred Crowded East Grea
Plain Pond Tuesday Afternoon ant
Evening,

Skating is good at FordsI That
seems to be the password, and several
hundred crowded the pond Tuesday af-
ternoon and evening, enjoying the ia
vorite winter sport
The Shore Line Electric company
have installed a cluster of lights at
the edge of the pond that furnish con-
siderable light, and now they are con-
templating running an unused car to
the end of the line, which is right near
the pond, and convert it into a check
ing room. Besides a checking room
it is hoped that a small sized refresh
ment stand can be installed This will
be carried out if the management of
the company can secure someone to
look after it. When there is good
skating at the pond there VIII appear
on the front of the trollev cars signs
to that effect. The pond is flooded
and leased by the Fairgrounds associa-
ton and the owner is w. A. Miner.

charged with bayonets and dislodged
the Germans.
One of the most striking and
spectacular events of the days fight
ing occurred at the so-called Menin
tunnel, a great underground forti-
fication constructed by the Germans
on Menin road opposite Hodge. The
British preliminary bombardment
had forced the Germans to hold the
line thinly. Here the British force,
which was to attack at dawn, lay out
all night in she'll holes within twenty
five yards of the German line waiting
for the signal to advance.
When the time arrived for the
charge and the British gunners had
dropped a protecting barrage on the
German front trench ahead of the
British troops, it was seen that the
Germans had taken to their heels and
were fleeing.

Thirty-four Men Are Rounded
Up by Sheriff Roberts at Oi-

Defense,
DEPORTATION IS MARKED
BY LITTLE EXCITEMENT
w. H, Hams, United States
Commissioner; One Of Those
Arrested Released by De-
Tense Council.

Gallup. n. NJ, July 3t.--Thirty-
four men, said to be Industrial Work
ers of the World, were deported from
Gallup tonight by Sheriff II, l.. Rob-
erts, acting under instructions of the
Mckinley county council of defense
which was recently appointed.
The men were rounded up this
morning by the sheriff and his force
of deputies, taken to the court house
and held there under guard all day.
They were marched to the Santa Fe
railway station tonight and placed
aboard a special coach Mounted
deputies guarded them as they march
ed through the streets. A motor
truck on which a machine gun had
been mounted, led the procession.
Destination Not Announced.
The deportation caused little ex-
element although a big crowd gath
cred at the railway station to witness
the loading of the deportees.
The deportees' car was sent away
on Santa Fe train No %. The desti-
nation of the men was not announced
by the council of defense.
Among those arrested was W. II
Hams, United States commissioner
He was taken before the council OF
defense and charged with having
published in his newspaper articles
encouraging the !. w. w. He was re-
leased when he promised not to take
part in further activities of the |. w

The council of defense took action
as the result of a threat to tie up all
mines in the Gallup district by strike

miners union to recommend to the
district president that the strike be
called off for patriotic reasons and a.
he failed to send "A telegram in COM

CAR OF I. w. w. is LEFT IN
RAILWAY YARD AT BELEN

Belen, n. M. July 31.--The thirty
four members of the |. w. W., who
were deported from Gallup today,
reached Belen shortly before mid
night The car, inwhich they rode,
was uncoupled 1Iom the train and
left in the Belen yards.
The deporsocs were ignorant of
their destination. They did not know
whether they were to be left here or
to be taken further tomorrow. Some
of them expressed the belief that
they were to be sent to Albuquerque
tomorrow. However, since there
were no guards over the deportees
when they reached Belen it is likely
that they will stay here until they
leave on their own initiative.

Hungering already. lacking the ne
cessities of war and of industry. and
facing the embargo rule of America
that will shut Off the supplies they
have been getting through neighbor-
ing neutrals, the German peoples are
plainly distressed and apprehensive
of the future,
Entire Reliance on Divers.
Their admitted reliance Is the u
boat. If enough ships can be sunk
to interrupt the supplies of the al
lied armies and the flow of armies
and their munitions from America, IL
Great Britain can be brought close
to starvation, then Germany has hope
of winning the war. If not, then Ger
man autocracy Is likely to find this
year at least the beginning of the end.
In truth as Bethmann-Ho
said-Germany mas "staked all'' on
the U-boat.
To its credit as a weapon can be
put total of more than $40 British
vessels of over 1000 tons in the six
months of its operation. Taking the
highest probable average of $500
tons set by British authorities, this
would represent total tonnage of
more than 100000 of the ocean
ships. Adding the vessels damaged.
the losses of other belligerents and
the neutrals. the campaign is seen to
be a serious drain on the available
tonnage of the world.
On the other side must be set the
drastic measures taken by the allies
| to cut cargoes to necessaries, the
| drawing into the war trade OF ships
| from all other routes, the rigid econ
omies enforced, huge reserves of food
and munitions already rolled up. and
the progress in defensive measures
with the lower ratio of sinkings In
the last two months
But weighing in the balance heav-
| lily against the weapon are the forces
1t has brought INTO play against Ger
many. The United States, Brazil and
other American nations as enemies
and powerful neutrals made unfriend-
ly are consequences of the German
determination to stake ALL
1t was not united German govern
ment that reopened the ruthless war.
Chancellor Bethmann- Hollweg was
one who realized the dangers But
up and down the land the U-boat ex-
tremists preached their doctrine.
They promised to frighten neuthal
shipping off the seas, to sink belliger-
ent traders in such numbers as to
bring Great Britain to her knees be-
fore summer.
| Hindenburg Supported IL.
In the end, supported by Hinden-
burg and Ludendorff, they had their
way. and even while President Wilson
was still engaged in the peace nego-
tiations that had followed his request
for terms of December and the Ger
man offer Of December ~. they made
ready for their campaign.
January 81 Germany announced
her decision. No times was given for
American or otper neutral protest
