RUSH AID TO ITALY
v. S. WILL SEND SHIPS LOADED
WITH COAL AND SUPPLIES.
Military Critics Say cadorna viii Re.
tire to New Line Of Defense on
Taoliamento River.

Washington, Oct. 31.-The next
move by the United States to help It.
ally in her critical hour will be to d.
vert quantities of coal, supplies and
food intended for other destination to
the % ships already turned over to the
Italian government.
BY this response to Italy's need-the
first actual help to be extended from
any Of the alleS-much material bene-
fit to the fighting forces is expected as
well as encouragement for the civil
population: 49,
Italian military experts here agree
that General CadOrna will retire with
his whole army to the new line of de.
tense on the Tagliamento river. about
twenty-five miles In the rear of the
present line. On this river the Italians
have formidable and permanent de-
fensive works and the line should hold
unless the Notifications have been
stripped of their heavy guns to place
them on the mountain tops surround
Ing the Bainsizza plateau.
London, Oct. dissatisfaction with
the decision of Great Britain and
France to help the Italians is eX-
pressed by most of the newspapers,
which again urge that whatever as.
siStance is possible must be given
without delay.
The Morning Post. however, con-
tends that the best Way of helping IT.
ally is to keep hammering the Germans
on the western front. 1t adds:
"A German victory over the Italians
will not help them if we keep striking
hard in Flanders. 1t is q maxim In war
never to allow the strategy to be di.
verified to the enemy and every move
of our enemy now is to attempt to ere.
nte diversion from the western
'front.'"
While some commentators today
take somewhat gloomy view of the
situation. others believe that the Ital.
ians will recover and that the Germans
will not gain any permanent advan'
tage. The Daily Express says:
Germany has made gamblers
move and won the first coup. That's
ALL We may walt and see what Will
happen without misgiving."

MUST RECKON WITH THE U. S.
London Post Comments on Advent Of
American Soldiers In the
Trenches.

London. Oct. 31.-Commenting on
the advent Of American soldiers In
the trenches. the Post says: "Were
the German success in Italy or In 9TH
er theaters to become much greater
than the allies consider probable, the
Germans would still have to reckon
with the fresh, eager. stern forces of
America. 1t would seem that Ger
many Is putting forth her utmost ef-
fort during the interval which must
elapse before the weight of the United
States can be brought to bear upon
her weak and decimated battaliOns."

Soldiers Without Uniforms.

Washington's armies, when they had
uniforms, wore the familiar "Continen-
tails" Of buff and Blue or gray, but regi-
ments from different states had for the
most part uniforms of their own. The
majority wore whatever clothes would
protect them without regard for uni.
formity. One part of the American
troops who received the surrender Of
CORVALLIS at Yorktown were in uni
form, but the most of them still wore
rags Of hOmespun.

Towel and Medicine Closet.

A good idea for towel and medi-
cine closet or cabinet in two bath
rooms which have a common wall is to
divide the one closet space into thirds
laterally. The upper third forms the
two shallow medicine closets, back to
back, with a mirrOred door in each
bathroom. The other two-thirds ex-
tend through the depth Of the closet
and are used for towels Each Of
these divisions opens into one Of the
bathrooms.
