"The capture of nearly 24,OOO Aus
TRAN troops In a little more than two
weeks Is no small accomplishment and
must have had a chilling effect on
Vienna. Austria's counter claim to
having captured 1900 unwounded
Italians serves to offset the Rome
claim, but the followers of King Vic
tor Emmanuel have every reason for
rejoicing.
Italian Progress Remarkable.
"The most spectacular captures OF
the forward movement, Of course, were
the taking Of Monte Cucco and the ap.
proaches to Monte Santo, which re-
quired a long and terrible fight II

ON the hills approaching Monte Santo.
when the natural difficulties the
Italians have to face ON this front are
taken into consideration their progress

is 1t fordable. Here the mountains
fairly bristle with Austrian guns. Yet
the Italians crossed the river, protect
ed their advancing infantry, consoli-
dated their captured territory and In
trenched, all under a heavy concentrate
ed fire by the enemy, whose forces con-
Quoted a determined counterattack.
'The line north of Gorilla has not
advanced far, the principal advance
having been toward the south and
east along the coast. Heavy British
guns and British gunners played an
important part In the initial stages of
the drive, hammering the Austrian po-
sitions to pieces. Veterans of the OAR
danelles campaign arrived in the gulf
of Trieste In small monitors and rem
dered valuable assistance to the land
forces by pounding the Austrian left
flank.
while the capture of Trieste would
have a greater moral effect than mill
tary value, since it would mark the
realization of an Italian dream of fifty
years, from a military standpoint II
would be a real accomplishment. Italy
wants the entire eastern shore of the
Adriatic freed from Austrian control
and the Austrians driven over the
mountain ridge. With Trieste In Ital
ian hands 1t is easily conceivable that
Austria would be forced to abandon
the entire Istrian peninsula, marking

BILE low PRICES said he would set
the price for the whole territory
involved at $40.
Don't do that" said the repre-
sentative of the territory, you
will ruin our people,"
I'm that one discussion the low
priced man showed how foolish
he was. When it came to guam
tity production he blew up. He
was dealing with brokers who
thought they could make a strike
with the government.
THE average price of the four
billion feet of lumber used in the
environments was $20.50. Four
billion feet represents the coun-
try's output for a whole year"
Turning to the matter of bonus
es and penalties for the contract
ors Major Starrett said:
This is one of the great bones
of contention in the contracting
business. We decided against it.
Suppose we had given one man
a contract and agreed that II he
got his work done at certain
time we would pay him SO much
extra or II he did not finish at
a certain time we would deduct so
much a day from his earned per-
centage.
"If we had had such a system
on these cautonments see what
would have happened. We would
have had an appeal to the mans
money making instinct, not to his
patriotism. He would have been
working for a bonus on an arbi-
trary contract to which we could
not have added buildings or sub
contracted them.
I'VE have had to change con-
tracts and plans all the way long.
II we had had the bonus system
the contractors would have said:
This Is not the work I contracted
to do, so you must extend my
time We could not shorten the
time under any circumstances.
You see how the governments
hands would have been tied under
that system"

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 21.-
FortX San Francisco members of
the draft army, en- route to join
those going to Camp Lewis, open
ed their war carer this afternoon
with an attack on United Rail
roads cars.
Riding in an auto truck loaded
with rock and cement, the men
attacked every car they met on
Market street. Windows were
broken and passengers panic
stricken. Several persons were
cut by flying glass.
The entire 40 were cornered by
a posse of police and hurried to
the city prison.
When the police learned that
the men were all members of the
draft army they were baffled. The
time was 1:40, and in 20 minutes
more the men were due at the
city hall to join the parade of
drafted men. They were riding
toward the city hall to join the
parade when arrested.
They were then liberated and
hurried to the city hall.
