CABINET DISCUSSES
 ITALIAN S|lUAII.N
MILITARY ASPECTS AND ExTEM SION OF AID cONSlDERED-No
 GREAT APPREHENSION.
ADusEs AS TO RETREAT
Word That British Artilierymen With Italian Army Had Brought Big Guns Through Without Loss of Sin.
 gle Battery Encouraging.

Washington.-Th Italian situatio, was discussed at length by President Wilson and his advisors at a cabinet meeting, the discussion touching ina. mediate military aspects and the ny. tension of assistance by the allies Furnishing of supplies, especially coal, badly needed for Italian mnni. tion factories, is said to be regarded as this country's particular sphere of immediate action.
 Although the administration shares regret and concern over initial sue. cess of the Teutonic drive, high off. cials here are said to utterly refaet the opinion, advanced in some ouar ters, that events in Italy can become decisive of the war or even an imDort ant turning point. It is felt that sat backs in Italy will act as a spur rath CT than a Encouragement. both upon Italy and the other allies. There is no apprehension that Italy will break down or weaken in adherence to inc common cause against Germany
 Further adviees concerning the re treat are anxiously awaited in official and diplomatic quarters. Army off cers as well as officials of the Italian embassy appear to be entirely conf. dent that Gen. Cadorna will be aMa to hold the Teutonic forces in check
 Word that the British artillerymep with the Italian army had brought their guns through the retirement without the loss of battery was wed comed as indicating that Gen. Cador na's men were holding their organi zation in the face of the smashing Austro-German assaults. The British guns are all "heavies," big pieces that it takes time to withdraw. If all of them have been saved, American ef feers think there is every reason ts believe that much of the Italian ar tillery vital to defense in final stand also has been brought back.
 Reports are taken to indicate that the artillery losses of the Italians. claimed by the Germans to be enaF nous. comprise smaller pieces and mountain guns On the new line, laid out years ago as the Italian defensive front, there are emplacements, char ted ranges and other factors which will aid in stenming the tide of the enemy advance. The British big guns will become dou5ly useful there.

Chain Letter Aids

,1ent For Soldiers

Furnishing balls and bats and other
baseball equipment for the United
States soldiers in foreign fields and at
army posts has been undertaken by
Manager Clark c. Griffith, of the
Washington baseball club of the AM
erican league. and all other baseball
associations Of the country have been
appealed to for assistance.
Each baseball association in the
country is expected to aid in the pro-
ject, which already has reached i'm
mense proportions thru the chain LETT
ter plan.
Each person is asked for % cents.
and in sending his money to write to
four other persons. explaining the plan.
These -four, in turn, each write four
other friends, and SO on. President
Wilson is among the contributors and
his name appears with hundreds OF
others in roll of honor" published
by Mr.. Griffith.
President f. NJ. Wilbur, of the Mar
shalltown Baseball Association, will
receive subscriptions locally for the
enterprise. In sending in the subscrip-
tions it should be borne in mind not
to forget the chain feature. A single
subscription loses one fifth it's value
If the other four friends are not So
licited, and, the loss is proportionately
larger as the chain remains broken.

Gilman Raises Its AIIotment-AIbion
Still increases It's Figures.
Today the total subscriptions for lib
erty bonds for Marshall county has
reached s679,300. Some orders for bonds
had been sent in to Chicago direct
without being reported to the county
committee and the publication Friday
crediting Gilman with $4,000 on an al
lotment of 100000, raised a Is cent?
meter roar from that precinct, for the
other $4,000 with drafts attached from
the Farmers State Bank, was found
Friday evening mislaid on the desk Of a
local bank and the order was tele-
graphed to Chicago
Albion. too, claims credit for much
that has been counted for other parts
Of the county. Mayor Turner insists
that the Whaley estate subscription of
$4,000. and the subscription Of $500
from Martin Graham and other sub
scriptions amounting TO 81, 600 from Al
bion people who handed them in thru
Marshalltown bonds should be credited
to the Albion community. This would
make total of ~s26 500 for Albion,
which was allotted only $500, or a
. to l response from that neighborhood.
These subscriptions, however have all
been counted in the grand total for the
county.
