INCREASE ON R. /.
Ten Per Cent Raise to All I'm
organized Employees of System.
1t Affects Mostly Office Men
Who Receive Less Than $500.

Unorganized employees of the Chi
cago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad,
it was announced officially in Topeka
today, who are receiving less than
5000 month have been granted a 10
per cent wage increase. Several thou
sand employees of the lines will be af
fected.
The INCREASE, it is announced, was
given because of the increased cost of
living and the increased amount of
business the Rock Island, just out of
the hands of the receivers, is doing.
In May, the latest month for which
figures are available, the road made a
net operating income of 81 ,525, $50, an
increase of $751; over the CORE
spending month of last year. Z
In view of the official announce
ment, operating employees are today
momentarily looking for notice of the
increase from their superintendent
Traffic employees have already received
their notice. The increase is effective
July is.
Officials of the road here said about
125 Topeka employees would be affect
ed by the order. Between SO and 60
per cent of the employees in Kansas
will receive the increase.

Washington, July 24.-The United
States tomorrow will call out its sec
ond group of national guardsmen for
intensive training. Twenty states in
GLIDING New England, a fringe of the
Old South, part of the northwest and
others will respond. The list follows:
Maine, New Hampshire. Vermont,
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Con-
necticut. New Jersey, Delaware, Mary
land. District of Columbia Virginia.
North Carolina, South Carolina, Ten
nessee, Illinois, Montana. Wyoming,
Idaho, Washington and Oregon.
The guards will be held at home
armories or state concentration camps
until such time as the southern tented
camps are ready. As there is still
much construction work, building
wooden kitchens, mess halls and the
like, some of the troops at least will
not head south for a month.
First Called Not Yet in Camp.
None of the first called guardsmen
have yet moved, tho the war depart
ment said today that movement prob
bly, would start next week, as the first
of the camps are rapidly nearing COM
pletion.
Sufficient supplies will be ready for
the men by the time they reach camp.
The question of furnishing higher
officers to the national guard is still
in abe nee. Sixteen major generals
and sixty-two brigadier generals are
needed and most of these will be
drawn from the present organization,
tho in a few isolated cases it is likely
commanding officers may be forced
out.
The department has decided that
as a general rule it will not assign
any regular army officer to position
in the guard lower than brigadier
general. There will be few such plums

defenders of the Chemin des Danes

tween Cerny and Allies the enemy
likewise attempted an attack and like
wise failed.
A storming attack directed by the
Germans north of Sancy was crum-

the enemy's waves. The remaining
Germans fled to their trenches, aban-
doning a number of prisoners.

Artillery Battle Never Equalled.
Berlin, July 24-An artillery battle
of an intensity never paralleled pre-
viously is raging day and night in
Flanders, the war office announces.
The German announcement indi-
Gates that in all likelihood the ex-
pected British offensive is at hand.
Several times recently Berlin has re-
ported heavy artillery fighting in
Flanders and the intensity of today's
bombadrment probably denotes the
stage of preparations before the blow
is struck. 1t has been predicted that
the next attack of the British would
surpass any effort previously made
by them. The opening of the often
sive may be fastened to assist the
hard pressed Russians.

Suppress Military Expense To
Keep Germany Guessing.

Washington, July ga new five
billion dollar war budget-two billion
dollars more than the one that started
Americas war with Germany, was
laid before congress today.
News of the tremendous sum to be
asked by the administration came
first to senate leaders over the tele-
phone from Secretary of the Treasury
McAdoo. McAdoo himself was to see
Chairman Simmons of the senate
committee this afternoon to submit
the estimates The full committee is
expected to be present.
The $1,670,670,00 revenue bill that
was to have been introduced today by
Simmons has been held up Indefinite
ly, dwarfed by appalling new taxes or
bond issues that congress must pre-
pare for.
The message from McAdoo, telling
of the new estimates, came to Sim
mons just as he was leaving his Of
flee for the senate floor.
Largely for Field Artillery.
1t has been understood the war de-
partment would submit estimates for
more than $4,000, 900, 0O0-principally
for field artillery and for expenses in
connection with the next draft.
A half billion additional for the gov
ernment's shipping program probably
will be asked.
The treasury and war departments
declined to give the estimates. Sec
rotary Baker indicated that the con-
gressional committees could determine
what publicity should be given to the
figures.
Some of the estimates may be with
held, SO that Germany cannot take
counter measures of preparation.

The president signed the measure to-
day, releasing appropriations of 500,
100000 for immediate use in building
airplanes and preparing American
aviators for service in France.
Almost at the same moment, Unit

from France, reported the cry of the
allies now is that unless America puts
forth a gigantic aviation effort the
war will be long drawn out.
