Chairman Goddard and Associates
in Field Organizing Out
side Communities

Do your bit toward the 100000, 900
Red Cross war relief fund.
The campaign is now in full swing
outside of Bismarck. "
H. P. Goddard, head of the finance
committee. started out yesterday to
tour the county with assistants, and
will organize the communities for the
main drive next week, which has been
set aside by President Wilson as Red
Cross week. He is accompanied by
Rev. George Buzzelle, vice president
of the Bismarck Red Cross chapter,
and others.
This party will spend two days
arousing enthusiasm in the various
towns and. farming communities out
side the capital city.
The need is pressing.
Directly to the Front.
Every dollar subscribed will go d.
rectly to the war front to alleviate
suffering there and especially will the
money be used to give aid and COM
fort to the army that will be drafted
for foreign service within the next
month or two.
Starting Monday, there will be a
canvass of the business district by
teams, lasting the entire week. Mrs.
w. C. Taylor, president of Bismarck's
federation of women's clubs, is at
work interesting the members of that
organization in house to house cam
pafgn. A meeting will be held a. the
Commercial club rooms at 400 p. m.

Cities all over the nation are pre-
pairing for this great war relief fund
campaign. St. Paul, Minneapolis, Sc

west and middle west have pledged
as high as 100000 each. One friend
of the Red Cross in New York city
has offered donation of one million,
provided the city raises a certain
amount
With the Liberty Loan campaign
out of the way, the entire nation Is
to be given over to this worthy move

If anyone is in doubt of the dire
need, read Roosevelt's eloquent ap-
peal, published in the Tribune OF yes

Don't let any be slackers in Bur

Remember your contribution will

Valley City, m. D., June 1.-THE
North Dakota Volunteer Firemen's as
sociation does not share Townfey's
antipathy to the Liberty Loan. A
committee of five named after the re.
port of the secretary to consider his
suggestion that the state association
invest in the Liberty bonds reported
favorably at the close OF the meeting
yesterday. d.
The fire laddies will invest as much
of their funds as they can spare in
the Liberty Loan, making application
today, and in the support of the Amer
ican Red Cross. .
The firemen also voted yesterday to
contribute 1000 pounds of -four to the
children's home at Fargo.
The committee named to carry out
these resolutions consists of H. l..
Reade, Bismarck; ]. M. Sutherland,
chief Of the Fargo fire department
and ex-president of the state associa-
tion, and H. F. Strehlow of Casselton.
r. Holmboe of the Publicity Film
corporation of Bismarck was here
throughout the convention and he took
several hundred feet of moving pic
lures, which will be used by the as
sociation for educational publicity.

Although this is the home town Of
Attorney General LANCER, that gentle.

LANCER stopped in Mandan briefly
yesterday afternoon en- route by car
to one of the slope towns. At that
time he denied any knowledge Of or
any special interest in todays rally.
League Losing Ground.
The league never has had great
amount of strength in the slope. 1t
now has less than ever before. The
slope prides itself upon thorough-g6-
ing Americanism. The sickly social
istic sentiments of Townley and his
sychophants have been regarded by
slope people as an insult to their in
telligence. r.- y, 49,.
Realizing this, each succeeding
speech Townley and Frazier have
made in the slope has shown the re-
suits of careful pruning. But, so thor
oughly saturated is Townley with his
gospel of class hatred, dissatisfaction
and distrust that even the cool recep-
tion he has received everywhere west
OF the river, except at Beach, has not
sufficed to purge him of the malady. n
Few Out; Apathy General. 2;e,
The comparatively few farmers who
turned out early today to hear Town,
ley were apathetic.t The old time sig
nails for APPLAUSE attacks upon sv:
cry individual and corporation which
has been thrifty enough to accumulate
some property; bgforification2 for the
principles of Meyer, Haywood and
Debs; self-adulation for Townley and
censure for everyone who has dared
oppose his wild schemes-are not hav.
ing the desired effect. B..

Treasury officials estimated at II

books close, that the total would be
at least two billion five hundred mil.

over 25 per cent.

Indications based on telephone and

ment of Big Guns East and
South of Mesines
(By Associated PresS.)

The British campaign in Belgium
gives signs of developing into one of
the most important in the war. The
Germans are being forced back at a
comparatively rapid rate.
Today brings the announcement Of
another considerable advance, by the
British in this area. They attacked
last night, south and east Of Messines
and on both sides of the YpresCom
ines canal, gaining all their detectives.
The front line in the British offen-
sive movement extends seven miles
from the village of Klein Villebeke
south to the river Warnavek. Last
nights attack, the elimination of con-
stant pressure, yielded the British
troops the German front trenches be-
tween the Warnavek and the Lys, be.
sides additional ground more to the
north.
Signs of Retreat.
Signs of probable further retreat Of
Germans are not wanting. Correspond
ents have reported the withdrawal Of
the German big guns east and south
Of Messines, to the extreme limits of
their range,
The British artillery command of
the situation seems to be almost Who'll
ly responsible for the yielding tend.
encies of the Germans. The British
big guns secured their advance when
Messines ridge, the only commanding
eminence in the region, was stormed
at the opening Of the offensive. 49,.
General 'Haig's dispatches have III.
dicated that important developments
might be expected to grow out OF the
offensive in Belgium, and his predic.
tions appear to be in the way OF be-
ing made good.

Germans Have
Poor Success on
Belgian Front
NV Associated Press.)

The French Front, June 15.-The
Germans have not had SO much sue.
cess as the Belgians farther north in
using floods as a barrier Of defense
along the line of the Disc. The river,
when it passes northward Of the dev.
astated town of Chaune, now in the
hands of the French, takes sinuous
course through marshy low-lyins lands.
and the Germans after their forced
retreat, endeavored by damming 1t
several places. to put wide stretch
of water between themselves and tho
pursuing French troops.
Extending through the forest almost
to St. Quentin they succeeded for .
time in covering the intervening coun.
try with water, and several cities
stood out like islands. The nature
of the soil and the dry weather OF
the spring disappointed their hopes OF
creating a permanent moat In front OF
their new positions, and a tour OF
the French front lines in this vicfn-
ity showed that scarcely a trace OF
the inundations remained. 81
The roar OF thousands of canons
coming from father south and east,
told of the tense struggle in progress
for the possession of Chemin des
Danes, which the French have held
firmly since it fell into their hands
last April, and where they have fought
back every desperate attempt Of the
Germans to recapture it by counter It.
