also shall see things differently. The
novelty will not on our part arise
from separation, but the reverse.
We have gained and are gaining q
better understanding Of the world
we live in. Scales of provincialism
have fallen from our eyes. When
our sons have fought and died to-
gether with those of Great Britain,
France, Italy, Russia, and our other
honored friends, things can not be %
they were before that happened.
Each knows the other better than
he did. Old lines of separation have
gone.
Applied to commerce this means
that we understand other peoples
and their needs better and know bet
ter what. we may do to supply them.
We have come into family relation
ship, very near, very hopeful to all
in the family. It must alter the
world of commerce as it Is ALTERING
the worlds geography. We shall
face that period, too, with new pod
! ers. We are learning thrift. We
are giving the chemist and the men
of other sciences their proper places.
We are using resources long neglect

ing out into all the lands. The

or, is making his way througout the
world. The physical and financial
tools of commerce which we lone
have lacked are prepared to oul

no, and in my earnest belief we shall
draw richly from the family inter

BIG MADE
BYTHEALLIES
THIS WEEK.

Washington, Oct. 24.-Germany
probably lost one4half of her total
effective super-Zeppelins on the day
of October 20, in the disastrous raid
over England, according to official
cablegrams received in Washington.
All France is exultant over what the
dispatches declare to be the greatest
defeat ever administered 80 an air
fleet since the beginning OF the war.
The qualification is more intense be-
cause it is known that this German
raid was an attempt to carry out a
fearful threat of vengeance made
four days before.
On that occasion, the German gov
eminent sent out a warming to Doth
France and England OF dire punish
ment to follow what the Germans de-
clared to be unwarranted and in
human attacks by British and French
aviators upon peaceful German
towns. Reprisals were threatened
in the Official German communica-
ton, which, in part, reads:
For every brick which falls from
peaceful German homes, whole rows
Of buildings will be overthrown in
Paris"
The official French report OF the
attempted German raid reads as fol
lows:
Anti Climax of Bombast.
1.-THE first Zeppelin brought down
fell at St. Clement on the borders of
the forest of Mondon, ten kilometers
from Luneville. 1t was seen at 6:2O
q. m. tourneying with two other Yep
pelins. It was at once attacked by
one Of our armies defense sections.
At first a series of shells were fired
at the Zeppelin when it was distant
1000 meters. The Zeppelin prompt
" rose to height of $500 meters.
In fresh attack by the aircraft gunF
the fourth shell struck the outside
envelope and the Zeppelin caught
fire. Five dead bodies, horribly
mutilated. were found near the Yep
pelin. Others must be buried in the
ruins which are still smoking. There
could not have been any bombs left
In the Zeppelin as no explosions were
heard. The apparatus had four pro-
pellers.
About 1870 p. m. Zeppelin No. 40
was forced by our aviatOrs to come
to earth near OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
It is intact. The commanding Of
Acer and seventeen men OF the crew
are prisoners.
"A little later the third Zeppelin,
the L-50, came down at Dammartin,
near Montigny LIE Roi, and two Of
ficers and fourteen men were cap
tured. Two Of the crew were slight
" wounded.

Alfred troops were UuSlly cA6d6cu ia
consolidating positions won Monday
in Flanders, the French forces of
General Petain struck mighty blow
against the German line northeast
of scissors Tuesday morning and
made some of the most important
gains of terrain since they threw
back the army of the German crown
prince which was besieging Verdun.
The stroke was made over front
of about six miles, from the east of
Vauxaillon to Pargny-Filain. Under
rainy and generally unfavorable
weather conditions, the French push
ed forward all along the line, aided
by audacious aviatQrs who flew over
the German positions at an altitude
of about $50 feet, using their ma
chine guns, and penetrated the Ger
man line at one point to a depth OF
two and one-fifth miles.
Numerous important positions fell
one by one into the hands of Cen
eral Petain's men and in addition
more than 1900 Germans, an enorm-
Gus amount of war material and 20
heavy field guns were captured.
The greatest depth of the drive
was in the center of the line, where
the village of Chavignon was captur-
ed after a violent struggle which re-
suited in the enemy fleeing pell-mell.
Some of the best troops in the army
of the German crown prince were en-
gagged in endeavoring to hold back
the onslaughts, but their efforts were
unavailing under the enthusiasm of
the French to win positions which
would place them more advantage
ously to press on later toward Laon
For about week the French ar
tillery has been hurting tons of steel
into the German line in front of
them in preparation for the drive,
and when it was started sad havoc
already had been wrought by the
guns. In addition to the prisoners
taken by the French, the Germans
also suffered heavy casualties.
In Flanders both the British AMI
French troops are holding all the
gains made in Mondays drive north
east of Ypres, except at one place on
the southern fringe of the Houtholst
wood, where the Germans, in a furi-
| GUS cOunter-attack forced slight re-
tirement by the British.
The latest advices concerning the
| naval activity in the Gulf of Riga
between the Germans and the Rus
slams show that, although the Rus
SLAMS lost the battleship Slava and {
large torpedo boat destroyer. the
Germans were the heaviest losers
Two of their dreadnoughts, ono
cruiser, twelve torpedo boats. one
transport and numerous mine sxea
eB were put out of action ~ ia
Russian feet. While the eyaa "a
of these vessels has not been a5ee
tanned by the Petrograd government
it is announced that at least six Of
the German destroyers were sunk.
Further German attempts to land
forces ON the Esthonia coast to the
north of Werder have been REFUSED
by Russian detachments.
On the other front no importan.
engagements are In progress, except
in the nature Of bombardments. On
the Julian front Of the Austro-1tali-

The Zeppelin, without ballast, went
off with four men. From the decla-
ration of the prisoners this Zeppelin
left Gutenberg for London October
10. but was unable to reach the Eng
lish capitol.
1.-TWO Zeppelins, entirely destroy
ed, were attacked by our avions and
by our anti-aircraft guns and came
down in the valley of the saons,
alighting in the region Of Sisterton.
The crews, after having burned their
Zeppelins, attempted to escape, but
were taken prisoners.
1.-TWO other machines were seen in
the south, one landing at Larange,
in the lower Alps. The other was
seen by the aviation center at Frejus

position and disabled.
Seyenty-Nine Lost.
Thus. probably the Germans .ost
five of their Zeppelins, which are al
of the new type, from 234 to PA
meters in length, carrying GeVen and
ne engines with from 1890 to 2ooV
horsepower.
Summing up the extent of the dis
aster to the German air fleet, the
report says that Germany altogether
has constructed probably 100 Zeppe-
Inns, of which sixteen were destroy
ed before the war. The loss as Of
ficially reported by the Allies were
six in 1914, sixteen in 1915, twenty
five in 1916, and three for 1917.
Thus the minimum of sixty-six
Zeppelins have been destroyed, to
which must be added half a dozen
more lost by accident and in expert
mental trials. Deducting machines
loaned to Bulgaria, Germany now
has on the western front only TWEEN
ty-five super-Zeppelins. The great
est air fleet concentrated against
England in Belgium and Northern
Germany has never amounted to
more than sixteen Zeppelins.

GREAT CHANGES IN CONNER
CIAL FABRIC OF WORLD no
CONFRONT U. S. MERCH.
CHANT WHEN WAR
ENDS.

merce, in Address To Southern
Commercial Congress-; Tells
of Br0adened Vision that
American Trade Will
Have.
! The following is summary of an
address delivered by Mr.. William
C. Redfield, Secretary of Commerce,
at the banquet of the Southern Com
mercial Congress-, Hotel Aston, New
York, October Is, 1917:
cit is not modest, indeed it 81 dan
gerous, to assume the role Of proph-
ct concerning future economic eco
nomic changes. No man is wise
enough to foresee today that which
will come with the end of the war.
nomic changes will take place before
the war shall end. There may be
financial or political developments in
one or another country in the
months before or following the wars
close which no one can foretell. One
may not say positively what or where
the exhausted reservoirs of credit
shall be or how much of what is
thought to be war legislation in one
or another country is to he perma-
nent.
TT is easy from one set of facts
to deduce that there will be gener-
al collapse of commerce with the end
of the war. 1t is quite as easy from
another set of facts to infer that
there will be great industrial and fl
nancial activity when the war closes
Neither viewpoint may be based up
on all the facts, and there may be
probably are-economic forces at
work which will produce results
| either quite unexpected or which
will occur for reasons quite other
| than those relied upon to bring them
| about.
Will find Strange World.
when peace shall come and her
merchants take up the task of re-
storing Germans ruined commerce
they will find that it is strange
world which they seek to reenter
There will be difficulties in the path
of future peaceful penetration OF
which they seem not to dream.
Commercial frightfulness, like its
military namesake, will have passed
away. 1t will hardly be said again
to any of Secretary of Commerce OF
the United States that the German
Dyes uff Verein will not permit the
| establishment of an American dye
| 'tuff industry. The monopolies on
which German foreign commerce in
| large part seemed to rest secure
| have passed away. Our friends be-
yond the sea and We ourselves have
learned the danger of having our in
dustries wholly dependent on for
eign sources OF supply which may be-
come unfriendly. &
''It is pitiful to read extracts from
the German press which seem to
show that they expect to take up the
task of rebuilding their commerce
where they laid it down. They reck-
on the worlds demand for potash
as a purely German asset. It was
30, but It 10 20 no longer. They
were the worlds source for dye
stuffs. That opportunity has gone.

KREW-PINA
A Household Remedy
You Can Depend Upon.

Although Krew.Pina has been on the
market only one year, it has already
proven itself the king of household
remedies in all cases of muscular sore
ness, due to overwork, rheumatism
or strains. Also for colds, coughs,
Group, miners asthma, and like affec-
lions Of the bronchial tubes and air
passages, 1t has wrought wonderful re-
suits. For children 1t has truly been
a God-send, because there is no un-
pleasant odor or burning sensation,
and no matter how vigorous the ap.
plication, Krew-Pina cannot blister.
Neither does 1t discolor permanently
the clothes. In short, it is an ideal
salve, containing no harmful ingre.
dents, but possessing wonderful pow
ers for relieving pain. 1t can be Sc

pass, or four, in getting these things,
but we should get them II we needed
them, and we should never let up un-
til we had won, II 1t took ten years.
Be cause we have the means, we
have the numbers, we have the intelli-
gence and we have the grit.
Not only because OF the ready mon.
ey we can furnish the allies, the un-
limited credit and all the rest, but
because OF the tremendous and I'M
equaled power back Of us, it is Good
Night to the German cause and every
German knows 1t.
You can't make masses OF men fight
long in a cause they know is hope
less.
Particularly when they are pitted
against men that know their cause
is certain to win.
Hence, the United States will end
the war.
That isn't all. Here are all these
neutral nations waiting only for our
lead. If we declare that the patience
OF civilized men is exhausted and we
can stand no more, they will give us
at least their unlimited moral support.
Then it will be the world against
Germany on purely moral grounds and
IL Germany were five times as strong
that would break her.
There is nothing to regret in this
situation-and nothing to fear. Let
the war come. There is never anything
to regret or fear when man or a
nation is right,
And beyond the marvellous chance
that opens to end the war and bring
peace to stricken Europe is something
else.
We shall sit at the council board
where the terms of peace are arrang-
ed.
Then If we have the courage and the
manhood to stand by our convictions
and the truth we shall insist upon one
thing as absolutely needful to peace
now and peace that will endure here
after.
1t is that Europe, for the worlds
safety, shall be democratized.
No more king and kaiser; no more
royal fetiches; no more sacred fami-
lies, plotting world dominion and she'd
ding oceans of blood!
Wonderful chance, unequaled in the
history of nations, to serve God, serve
mankind and serve civilization!
The very thought of it ought to
fill US with solemn Joy and eXaltaticn.
No more kings, no more wars!
