ONLY AS A LAST RESORT
 SAYS LOVETT
(By Review Leased Wire.)

WASHINGTON. Nov. 17.-Arbitrary elimination of industries regarded as non-essential to save coal and rail transportation will be undertaken by the government only after every busi- ness threatened has been given a full hearing.
 This was made clear today by Rob- ert s. Lovett, director of transporta- ton and Fuel Administrator Garfield in statements replying to the recom- mendation of the railroad war board that coal and transportation be denied immediately to more than 500 commo- dities.
 MT. Lovett declared that he con templated no early action designed to cut off transportation to any industry. He added, however. that conditions might change, and that if the short age requires that coal be denied some industries, he will issue. at the re- quest of Dr. Garfield. orders shutting down on shipments to any named in dustries.

SHIPPERS ATTACK THE PROPOSED
 FREIGHT RAISE
tBy Review Leased wire.l

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Taking of testimony in the hearin gof the 15 per cent advance freight rate case be- fore the interstate commerce commis- sion was completed today with the in troduction of witnesses by shippers in an effort to show that the financial condition of the railroads is not as serious as had been contended and that an increase in freight rates now is unwarranted. The principal witness was Clifford Thorne, who gave an exhaustive re- view of statistics prepared by the shippers, tending 10 show that rail- road securities had not declined as much as some others, and that earn ings of the thirty-eight eastern roads interested already had exceeded by e0.00O,000 since--Jsnuary l the esti- mates the railroads gave of their earn ings for 1917 when the case was heard earlier in the year.
 Representatives of southwestern cattle interests testified that an in- crease in rates even in eastern terri tory only would work a hardship on the industry, which they said had been abnOrmally bad for the raisers for two years. Edward c. Lassiter, who raises cattle on a large scale i7 Texas, stated that the cattlemen who shipped to the middle western mar kets would be affected by the rates in the east because the packers would consider the increased transportation cost in purchasing.
 Sam Cowan, representing the Ma tional Livestock Shippers Protective association, read telegrams from cat tlemen saying their situation was seri- ous because of the drought and high cost of feed. One from Ike T. Pryor, president of the American Cattle Raisers' association, stated that the supply of calves this year would be 40 per cent below normal.
 Arguments will be heard Monday

FIGHTING GROWS FIERcsR.

HEADQUARTERS OF THE ITALIAN ARMY IN NORTHERN ITALY, Fri day, Nov. 16.-(By The Associated Press, 6 D. m.)-After five days of heavy shell fire, covering their advance with storming parties at chosen points the Austro- Germans have. not been able to pass the Piave river in force but are held by the desperate resisting force developed by the recognized Italian army. This has shown officers and soldiers alike the power of resist ance they possess, and has given them tangible evidence that this menacing rush from beyond the muntains can at least be checksd if not stopped entire ly.
 The chief scenes of action are on the lower Piave where Colonel General Boroyich's Austrians have their left under the fire of Italians and allied naval guns at the noun. of Piave, their right under bombardment by Italian fifteen miles of inundated country. Further up on the middle Piave the Austrians who succeeded in getting a fCothold on the west bank near Benson are crowded down to the waters edge.
 The invaders here have scant food and munitions and have been unable thus far to bring over achievements from the east bank. All their attempts to float pontoon bridge have failed under the enfilading fire of the Isaiian guns on both their Hanks.

ARIZONA BOYS
 INSISTED UPON
 RIGHTS AT RACES
tBy Review Leased wire.)

PHOENIX. Nov 17.-Threatening to disrupt the entire racing program at the state fair grounds this afternoon, officials of the International Motor Contests association and entrants for the Arizona races entered into a con troversy relative to the scope of. the entry fees deposited by the Arizona entrants, which was adjusted only aft CT an almost complete encouragement of the program.
 l. NJ. c. A. officials contended that the entry fee entitled the entrants only to the right to compete in the 25-mile Arizona race. The Arizona boys held that they were also en- titled to race in the free-for all pro- fessional contest.
 When the imported cars prepared to come 10 the scratch for the pro- fessional event, the Arizona boys bar ricaded the track with their cars and stood pat until some settlement of the controversy was made. Appeal ing to the crowd for support of their stand. the boys asked: "Howmany of you are with us?"
 The crowd rose to its feet, almost to man. and hundreds swarmed upon the track.
 Not until it was decided that the scheduled 25-mile professional race would be cut to 10-mile competition, and that the. Arizona boys would be allowed to compete, was the crowd in- duced to clear the course.
