TANKS CASUALTIES
EXCEEDINGLY LIGHT
Several Hundred Took Part in Drive on
Cambrsi-0nly 20 Men Killed,
100 Wounded

British Army Headquarters in France
fully their power in saving the lives OF
men and in conserving ammunition. The
casualties among the infantry which fol-
lowed the tanks into action were exceed
ingly light. The correspondent has heard
that two battalions, for instance, had
only one casualty each and that another
suffered the loss of but three men. This
is almost unprecedented in an attack of
such magnitude.
The casualties among the crews of the
tanks also were very light on the open
ing day, which is the only one for which
reports thus far have been received, II
is impossible to state how many tanks
were in action, but there were several
hundred, and out of all the men who
went forward in them it appears that
less than 20 were killed and less than
100 wounded.
The performance of the tanks was the
most remarkable because there was only
a short time to prepare for their use.
Some OF the tanks were veterans, but
many had never been in an engagement
before and the crews lacked actual fight
ing experience. Moreover, it was neces-
sary to train the infantry to cooperate
with them All this was accomplished in
a very few weeks.
The advance of the tanks, with their
general leading the way in the monitor
flying his flag, was the most impressive
sight imaginable For miles they were
lined up along the British front, and
when they started forward it was like
great ceremonial parade. Back of them
came the infantry, giving the final touch
to the picture. The stiffest fighting was
az Lateau wood, south of Masnieres.
There the tanks engaged a number of
German field and heavy guns and won
the day against them. One tank deliber
ately charged 5.9-ineh gun and cleaned
out its crew with its machine guns.

PETROGR4D MEN4CED
BY FAMINE
Daily Ration Is Again Reduced-All
Railroad Transportation
at Standstill.

Petrograd, Nov 24--The Bolsheviki
ministry is crumbling away while fam
inc is stalking nearer the capital.
The daily ration was once again re-
duced yesterday. The Kerensky food
ministry remains adamant in its refusal
to recognize the Bolsheviki government
and this, with paralysis of the railroads,
brought the city to realization yesterday
of the near approach of starvation.
Eleven Bolsheviki ministers have now
resigned. The latest was Admiral Yer
derevsky, as minister of marine. Cap
tain IyanoT was named his successor.
A general headquarters conference
yesterday adopted resolutions favorng
new all-Socialist government, to in
cude the Bolsheviki as well as the Mini
malists and to be under Tschernoff as
premier.
Owing to a famine in heavy clothing
in the army the peoples commissaries
yesterday decreed special requisition
from all persons paying more than $50
rubles (about S75) monthly.

The Americans Will Have to

WARNING THAT
ARTFUL TEUTONS
Will Try Hard to Regain
Their Place in World
Trade

Washington, Nov. "a. Warning of the
craft, energy and application with which
German business will seek to regain ia
vor in the world markets after the war
was sounded yesterday by Secretary
Redfeld in the interest of American
trade.
He counselled familiarity with German
theories and what he called "the artful
formidable organization that, with gov
eminent aid at every turn, has been
built up in Germany during the last 20
years to dominate the world markets"
The department of commerce an
nounced yesterday that German prepara-
tions for trade are being scrutinized by
its experts and its recent report on Ger
man Trade Organization" by Chauncey
ID. Snow, has been in such great demand
as to establish a new sales record for
government trade reports.
The department officials say that flu
ture prosperity of the country will de.
pend partly on Germanys loss of good
will in virtually all foreign markets and
upon American ability to maintain its
new prestige. The department will get
out supplementary bulletins on German
trade and preparations for the CONNER
cial future early in the new year
A food of letters and kilograms re-
porting suspicious Germans, the result of
President Wilson's proclamation impos-
ing restrictions on alien enemies, reached
the department of Justice yesterday and
were carefully scanned by agents of the
bureau of investigation. Many were
from persons who did not understand
that the alien enemy regulations applied
only to unnaturalized Germans, and not
to those of German nativity who have
become citizens.

Boston, Nov Benjamin Campbell
said yesterday at the New England rate
hearing that only 80 per cent of the New
Haven systems lines were paying the
rest being lines which were not altogeth-
er self sustaining. He said there was no
justification for a lower charge on mile
age books and that persons who insisted
upon parlor and sleeping cars should pay
higher rate. The New Haven, he add
ed, has curtailed Pullman service, as the
road does not derive any profit from it.
