Drag Cash from Sock
and Inuest in Bonds
Is Secretory's Tip
CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-Declarint

CHICAGO, Oct 22-Declaring
that the Liberty loan affords splen-
did opportunity for the removal # the
family savings from the stocking to
safer place, Secretary Daniels in an
address before the Iroquois club here,
today made a stirring appeal for the
success of the second offering.
Money is plentiful in America de-
clared the secretary. "The banks are
overflowing with 1t; the stockings are
bulging out with it. That depository
is not the safest. l would advise all
who use that ancient depository to
take ever dollar out and put 1t in
Liberty bonds.
81 wish every dollar in America was
on legs, so that it had to march up
the street and ride on the street cars
to get home. Then we could see the
dollars and enlist them in the selective
draft Under the law we have the
right to do SO, but the first Liberty
loan was responded to so cheerfully
and so fully that there was no Iscess-
ity and there will be no necessity now.
Just as truly as a republic can lay
it's hand on youn man and send him
to France in the trenches, SO it can
and will, if necessary lay it's hands
on every dollar in America"

fore the time planned by the provost

Will sound, church and fire bells will
be rung, and the announcement will
thus be made to the city that the drive
for bonds is under way.
Won't Be Urged.
There will be no urging or persuas-
i've powers used. The committee mem
bers take it for granted that every
man and woman in Richmond has long
since become acquainted with the fact
that buying Liberty Bond means
good business stroke as well as pa
triotic act
The persons visited simply will be
informed that the time is here to take
this action; that the time is past to
resolve to do" and hat delay not only
will curtaiI the total, but will put Rich
mond and Wayne county in an unde-
sirable light before other cities and
counties OF equal size.
Thousands of wage earners are buy
ing $50 and 500 bonds: some of them
paying cash and many of them pur-
chasing from the banks on small week
ly payments, the banks fixing the pay
ments to suit the purchasers.

new ORDER TO
L|CHTEN WORK

No instructions concerning the
change in the method of selecting men
for the United States National army
have been received by Richmond army
board officials, according to a state,
ment made Monday morning by Sheriff
Carr, president of the board.
It was stated by the board, however,
that the new arrangement would prob
ably make the work of the local
boards lighter, in that it divided the
men into definite classes and that the
confusion caused by exemption ss2ims
would not be so great.
Whether the new order will affect
those men who have already been call
ed and either exempted or discharged
was not known by the Richmond offic.
ials. It was presumed, however, that
thee men who have already been dis
posed of by the board will be placed
on the new lists in their respective
classes.

CITY TO BUY
$4,000 BOND

The city of Richmond will probably
become the owner of Liberty bonds
amounting to $4,000.
An ordinance appropriattng $50 900
with which to purchase the bonds, the
money to come out of the general fund
of the City light plant, will be intro
duced at special meeting Of City
Council oMnday night and it Is believ-
ed by city officials that it viii be
unanimously passed.
City officials not only feel that It Is
a patriotic duty to purchase Liberty
bonds but they are also convinced that
it is a good investment.
1t was first decided to purchase only
$4,000 worth of the bends but as more
than $4,000 will be in the general
fund of the light plant by the first of
next year it was decided TO prepare
an ordinance and ask council for au-
thority to purchase double this
amount.
OF the ordinance is passed an equal
amount Of the bonds will be purchased
at all of the banks in Richmond.

HAIC FORCES
ENEMY BACK
IN ANOTHER
YPRES SMASH
Fresh Thrust Made by Brit
ish with Help of French
Infantry Makes Big Ad-
vance.
FRONT IS NARROW

In cooperation with the French on
his left, Field Marshal Haig launched
a new blow along a narrow front at the
German lines, northeast of YpreS this
morning.
The allied infantry moved forward
il. the neignborhood of the Ypres-
Staden railway and on the outskirts
of Houtholst wood, on the extreme
northern edge of the active front in
Flanders The French advance was
along a width of about three-fifths of
a mile.
The British attack was probably
along a somewhat wider frant, extend
ing toward Poelcapelle and possibly
taking in the area of that town, which
has been the scene of some desperate
fighting within the last few weeks.
The German reactions were extreme
ly persistent here.
Score Early Successes.
Both groups of attacking troops
scored early successes. Paris an
nounces that all detectives were OBJ
tanned by the French troops while
Field Marshal Haig reported satisfac-
tory progress for the British.
The operation apparently is aimed
at bringing the left flank of the allied
advance somewhat farther forward as
a support to the center, where the
wedge has been driven farther into
the German front.
British naval airmen who raided
German bases in Belgium and conduct
ed scouting operations over the en-
emy's territory yesterday brought or
forced six German airplanes.
Russ Outwit Foe
Russian naval units in the northern
part Of the gulf of Riga have outwitteC
the superior German forces and have
escaped from Moon sound, where they
apparently had been bottled up after
the engagement in and about the
sound last week The Russian war
ships made their escapes withou
losses and are now in position pro
tecting the northern entrance to Moor
sound
The new position Of the Russian
squadron probably will compel the
Germans to give battle If they wish tt
enter the gulf of Finland by going
through the sound between Dago is
land and the coast of Esthonia. Tht
military forces In the Moon sounC
region were moved ccessfully by tn
Russians, who also rescued thei
transports and smaller craft. Before
their retirement they destroyed al
positions of military value to th'
enemy.
In addition to the warships ant
transports already reported sunk b.
the Russian units, Petrograd report
the sinking of another German trans
port by a Russian submarine. Tw,
torpedoes were fired by the same sub
marine at a German dreadnought o
the Markgraf type, vessels of $500
tons displacement. Being attacked
the submarine was unable to note re
rults. One torpedo detonated and thu
submarine on rising again saw cloud
of smoke.
Berlin officially admits the loss o
four Zeppelins Of the squadron whicl
raided England Friday night. The OF
ficial statement, however, fails to an
nounce the safe arrival home Of tn
other members of the contingent Ber
lin claims that several English cite
and parts were attacked with "specia
success" including London, Manches
ter, Birmingham and Hull.
