The Associated Charities come to the rescue of George Taylor, whose home burned Thursday night.
 George Taylor, a negro, who lived at Fifteenth and Missouri streets was compelled to walk from his nome leaving it in flames, managing only to save an old trunk of very little value.
 Taylor is known as a very hard working negro. having worked for some time for the Standard Lumber company of this city. Several months ago Taylor was compelled to lay off working on account of rheumatism which confined him to his home for some time He then resumed work at the Standard mill.
 Before Taylor took sick he carried insurance on his household goods to the amount of $300.O0 which would easily have replaced his loss, but during his sickness he get behind and let his insurance drop thus caus- ing him to call upon the Associated Charities for assistance, which was very gladly given.
 Taylor stated that if he was ever sick again, he would under no cir cumstances let his insurance get be hind. Just think, for the small sum per year this would have saved this negro from humiliation, and many others as we'll.
 Now the best thing for you to do, is to insure your household goods today,

and aims Of the war, the convention of
the Interventionist' party demands
that the Ministry of the Interior be
intrusted to o man who is competent to
conduct Italian affairs during the crisis
through which Italy is now passing"
The Italian government could not last
a day without the support of the bour-
geoisie and the "Interventionist" So
cialists. The Boselli Cabinet therefore
began to shake early in the month I'M
der the concentrated attack. To save
itself it also joined the opposition to
Orlando. the Minister of the Interior.
The "Giornale dTtalia," Foreign Min
lister Sonnino's organ, also began TO
criticise Orlando. The result was that
early last week the reconstruction OF
Boselli's Cabinet, without Orlando, was
imminent.
The collapse of her front under Ger
man attacks has, however, changed
Italy's political conditions completely
within the last ten days. An enormous
tide of discomfort was rising, ready to
sweep the government into oblivion.
The ruling interests in Italy perceived
the danger Immediately. In order to
check it they turned to the very Or
lando whom they denounced as pacif-
ist week previous. All hope OF avert
ing a tremendous upheaval is now
pinned on Orlando.

LONDON, Oct. 31.-Premier Lloyd
Georges to-day received message Of
greeting from the Italian Premier, re-
affirming the solidarity Of the Italian

struggle and confidence in the common

enemy has once more put foot on q

enormous effort, assisted by his allies,

Great Britain, with population OF
about 100000, and France, with a
population of some 100000, have al
ready contributed approximately 5,000,-
900 and 100000 men. respectively, and
have borne the burden of the struggle
for more than three years. II America
should send even 100000 men from
its population of over 100,000,000, il
would not, in our judgment, be doing
more than an equivalent share. For
America to send an overwhelming force
should also hasten Germany's realiza-
ton Of the hopelessness of her cause
and materially shorten the war. The
more men We send the fewer will be
slain"
Would Suppress Papers
On suppressing German language
publications the platform" says:
"a similar law was passed in Eng
land and France Immediately after the
declaration OF war. Besides minimizing
the danger of disloyal utterances, such

Italian Premier Tells
Cadorna Nation Stands
Behind Him in Trial

ROME, Oct. 3l.-Professor Vittorio
Z. Orlando, the new Italian Premier,
has sent the following telegram to
General Cadorna, commander in chief
OF the Italian army:
Fully realizing the formidable re-
sponsbiity am assuming at the pres
ent moment, when | take up the direc-
ton Of the Italian government, my
first thought is to assure your excel
lency that the Italian people supports
you intrepidly in your terrible trial,
and that not for one instant has its
faith in the army and in its chief been
shaken. To those whom it acclaimed in
the hour Of victory, to those still more
closely does the nation feel itself bound
in the hour of adversely.
The immense effort Of the adver-
sary, who has gathered and hurled
against us the accumulation Of his hate
and strength, if it has succeeded in
bursting in upon a dear and glorious
fragment of our country, has not
curbed our spirit nor broken up the in
ner strength of the country.

The Premier has three sons at the
front. One was on the Bainsizza Pa
teau. from which the Italians were ex-
PEELED at the beginning Of the present
Austro- German offensive, and ii is not
known what has become OF him. A

training for machine gun service, start

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-All export
restrictions will be waived by the
United States government in forward
ing supplies to Italy to aid IN meeting
the Austro- G erman invasion. The ltal-
ian government, 1t was made known to-
day, will be permitted to take the kind
Of materials il needs most 10 the limit
Of its tonnage capacity. regardless OF
prospective shortages here.
The military and political situations
in Italy and the aid America will rem
der were gone over at conference to-
day between Secretary Lansing and
Count di Cellere, the Italian Ambassa-
dor. Italy's crying need for ships re-
ceived especial consideration.
approximately 100000 tons Of ship
ping has been promised Italy by the
Shipping Board. Four vessel, already
have been turned over, and the others
will be delivered as fast as they are
available. The shortage of ships is so
serious, however, that the Shipping
Board has to pick them up as it can
find them, and the whole amount OF
tonnage promised may not be available
under thirty days.
Greatest Need Is Coal
Italy's greatest need Is coal, and
next, steel for her munitions factories
She has been drawing on this country
for about 100000 tons OF coal month
but now that English coal is harder
TO obtain her requirements from the
United States will approach 100000 tons
monthly. The country starts the winter
according to Italian officials, fully two
million tons short.
The shipping the United States is
able to release will be totally made
ouate to meet the demand for coal
and to carry food and munitions. 1t
is likely, it was said to-day, however.
that the Italians will make a trade with
Spain for large amount Of Spanish
tonnage to supplement the American
ships. At the same time the Italians
will put into transatlantic service AS
many of their own ships as possible.
