WAR SUMMARY.

Maximalists' rule in Petrograd appar-
emily is weakening as Premier Keren-
sky at the head of loyal troops ad-
vances from Gatchina, thirty miles
southwest of the capital.
Reports received in Finland and Co
penhagen say that the premier has en-
tered Petrograd and that the Bolshe-
Wiki are digging trenches and erecting
barricades in preparation for battle
with the Kerensky forces.
Fighting has occurred near Gatchina
between the revolutionists and the Ke-
rensky troops. but results are not
known.
Premier Kerensky retains the chief
command of the Russian armies. and
has established headquarters at Cat
china General Alexieff. the former
commander-in-chief, is with him. but
whether General Kaledines and General
Korniloff. who are at Moscow. have
Joined in the movement against Petro-
grad the stronghold of the extremist
organization is not yet clear. The two
generals have advised the Cossacks to
fight the Bolsheviki.
With the Italian armies in position
along the Piave from Feltre to the
Adriatic and from the Piave west TO the
Settle Commi, the Austro-German drive
through northern Italy has lost much
of its momentum. The invaders have
failed in strong attacks against Italian
positions northeast of Asiago. and
along the Piave there have been only
artillery duels-

CONTROL OF ALLIED ARMIES BY
POLITICAL COUNCIL CAUSES
EXCITEMENT IN BRITAIN
GEN, HA|G MAY QUIT
"Blood Of the Nation VIII Run Cold
At the Idea" Of Political Dictations
. As to Strategy. the London Post De-
clares-Othcrs Favor the Move.

London. Nov 13.-The speech by
Premier Lloyd George In Paris yester-
day has stirred the local press. His
illusions to the allies. incredible blum
der" are printed under sensational head
lines.
Comment is mixed with criticism of
the new allied war council as announced
here yesterday by Chancellor Bonar
Law. Several newspapers endorse the
speech in main or are non-committal.
Others criticise adversely the new MILL
tary plan, and accuse the premier Of
wishing to take over the strategic d.
rection Of the allied campaign.
Rumors in the Sunday newspapers Of
impending retirement Of Field Marshal
Haid and General Robertson, chief OF
the general staff. caused some COM
.mentators to insinuate that the reports
were sent afloat Intentionally by semi
official hints.
The Morning Post says:
"A political council advised by a
military committee Is to direct the
strategy Of the allies army The blood
Of the nation will run cold at the idea.
No more fatal and no more disastrous
arrangement can be conceived
Premier Lloyd George appears to think
that this complicated project will
achieve strategic unity. 1t seems to us
it will achieve strategic paralysis"
The Times says:
The upshot of the, speech is that
the premier Is anxious for closer unity
in the control of the allied armies. It
is an unimpeachable idea, but the point
is whether the machinery set up at
Rapallo will achieve this purpose.
Lloyd Georges instinct is sound inso-
far as he proposes to substitute sys-
tematic council Of ministers for the
past spasmodic and Intellectual confer
ences, but he will come hopelessly to
grief unless he defines with far greater
precision than Bonar Law did in the
house of commons the duties of the
councils military committed"
The Daily News. while thinking that
the new council ought to be an i'm
portant gain, says that "the disquiet
which has been expressed is due to the
well grounded suspicion which prevail
ed long, that there has been trouble
between Premier Lloyd George and the
heads of the army"

BE DECISIVE ISSUE OF
WAR, Won TIRPITZ CRIES

Amsterdam. Nov. i3.--At a meeting
of the New Fatherland party in Munich
Sunday. Admiral Won Tirpitz. former
German minister Of marine, made
violent annexationist speech. He said
the question whether Germany or Eng
land became the protector OF Belgium
would be the decisive issue Of the war.
"A mistaken solution OF the Belgium
question would stunt our exports and
the reserve capital of our industry
and degrade us to being bond slaves,

Washington. Nov 13.-The effect OF
Germany's political offensives" against
Russia and Italy upon the task ahead
OF the allies is recognized in Secretary
Bakers weekly review Of military OPP

Russias political situation made II
possible for the enemy to detach import

speedily transported to the italian
front.
1T IL not unlikely that before in
itiating their powerful drive against
the Italian forces, the enemy made
painstaking and systematic attempts
to undermine the morale Of the italian
troops with view to breaking down
their resisting power.
During the week just closed. both

successful conclusion.
French Also Winners.
THE French counterpart of the Brit
ish success took place north Of the
Aisne. Here the retreat of the enemy
anticipated last week was carried out.
The pressure of the French offensive,
which has grown slowly and method
cally in volume and intensity, reached
a climax when by the recent French
advance in this sector. they were en-
abled to enfilade the German lines
along the crest of the Chemin des
Danes.
For the past three years. the pres.
ence of the enemy on the crest had
been a source of anxiety to the French.
To dislodge them was a principal OBJ
jective of the repeated offensives de
veloped by General Petain since last
April. The sudden forced evacuation
of some forty square miles of the most
important terrain in this sector of the
western front has been the tangible re-
suit achieved.

1.-THE Importance of this successful
French advance must not be overlook

means the possession of the powerfully
fortified Siegfried line. hitherto consid-
cred by the enemy impregnable, and

APPRENTICE SYSTEM
NEEDED IN INDUSTRY

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. 22.-Rep-
resentative Callan has introduced q
bill in the state legislature ito protect
the apprentice in learning a trade
The purpose of the bill is to outlaw
any regulation of the apprentice by
trade unions.
In the defense of the present sys-
tenn a writer in the Oregon Labor
Press-Alvaro G. Shoemaker-says:
IF the boy were really given a
chance to learn a trade, there would
be little objection to this (Callan's)
system, as a learner who really is
given a chance to learn is more or less
of hindrance to the finished arti-
sans with whom he works.
But is the modern apprentices
given this chance? He is not.
He is given no opportunity to per-
feet himself in his calling, no chance
to attain that skill and proficiency
which alone promise him future in
dependence in bargaining with an en-
ployer for job.
HE is allowed no opportunity to
widen the range of possible employ
ment. He is put through a fine-grind-
cialty manageable of doing only one
small operation in the complete pro-
cess of production. Does he learn a
trade? It is a silly contention to as
sert that he does. He can not.
This is why organized labor is COM
mitted to the principle Of limitation of
apprentices to the number who actu-
ally will be given what they are prom
ised-a chance to learn the trade
The unions try to make finished and
Independent artisans, and not spe-
cialty units-cogs-of the boys who
enter the trades.
1.-The employers claim any person
has the right to exercise unrestricted
effort in his ambition to learn a trade.
Organized labor has never denied this
right. Nearly all union men were at
one time apprentices.
1.-THE applicant who prays for the
privilege of learning a trade knows
privilege. The unions try to restrict
the number of apprentices to the
number who will not be made victims
of greed and who will actually be al
lowed to learn the trade.
IF employers will bind themselves
to abandon the confidence game
which they practice upon guileless
and ambitious youth, the unions win
Immediately remove any restrictions
which they may have on the number
of apprentices who may be permitted
to enter a trade.
''No employer would load his force
with learners if he were compelled to
make good his word with the appren-
tees.
This would be natural apprentice
limitation. It is the kind organized
labor desires.
"Will employers stand this test?"
