RECOUNTS GREAT
BATTLE OF Marine
IN INTERVIEW, LORD FRENCH
REVIEWS EARLY MOMENTS
OF THE WAR.

London, Sept. 22.-The text of
Lloyd French's interview in the Par
is Journal on the anniversary of the
Battle OF the Marine, in which he as
tonished Britain by praising Lloyd
George as the man who accomplished
in few months what lord French
says Kitchener declared IL would
take eight years to do, was received
here toAlay. The frankness with
which the former Commander in
Chief discusses the mistakes OF Great
Britain in the early days of the war
produced a lively controversy,
The interview, as received FROM
Paris, reads:
I'VE had only one idea-Joffre,
myself and all our commander
and that was to save Paris and avoid
also any doubtful engagement which
might have turned into irreparable
failure. We passed thru days Of
uncertainty and grave anxiety. Moth
ing seemed assured. The maneuv-
ers on which We counted were going
wrong. The positions we hoped to
hold had to be abandoned. We
wondered when we would be able 20
stop.
zone day Joffre informed me he
was going TO cease the retreating
movement and defend Paris on the
line of the Marine. l spent the day
personally accommodating the posi-
tions in the neighborhood OF Lagay,
La Forte and Sous-Jouarre.
ION the following day, changing
his opinion under the pressure of
events, Joffre decided he should fall
back still farther down the line to
the Seine and there take the offen-
sive. | agreed. Then, about Sep
tember 3 and 4, came the eXtraordi-
nary maneuver of Won Kluck, who,
austead OF descending upon us direct
iy moved obliquely toward the south
east. He was actually engaged in
this maneuver when he learned of
the presence of the British army,
which was still standing firm, and of
the existence OF the Sixth French

S,oan's Eminent For Rheumatism.

The torture of rheumatism, the
pains and aches that make life un'
bearable are relieved by Sloan's Lin
iment, clean clear liquid that IS
easy to apply and more effective than
mussy plasters or ointments because
it penetrates quickly without rub

considerable part OF the goods i'm
ported from the United States to
Greece, ultimately went across the
frontier to Bulgaria, and by way of
invaded Serbia into Austria, and
thence to Germany. But il is now
believed that all chance of this is now
stopped by rigid surveillance on both
sides of the Atlantic, making contra
band shipments impossible, and or
binary shipments very difficult.
A purchaser of American goods
American seller. The latter must
then get the license for the shipment
from the American Government. In
addition, British commercial ana ma
val permits must be had, in order to
pass the Gordon of British warships
watching the trade routes past Gil
braltar into the Mediterranean.
without this British permit, the car
go is likely to be sent to the British
naval base at Malta, and lot of
goods have been actually piled up
there.
While this scrutiny is going on in
America the American Consul Gener-
al here is one OF commission which
investigates every purchase from
abroad, and certificates that it is to
an approved firm or individual, and
that the goods will not pass into enc
my hands. The blacklists of Eng
land, France, Italy and the other
countries have to be gone over to
see that the purchaser has not been
barred by some of the Entente AL
lies. His general standing is also
considered as a safeguard against
shipments to the enemy. When all
the formalities are completed on both
sides of the Atlantic, the cargo may
come il ships are available. and it
can stand the excessive freight rates
resulting from lack of tonnage.
1t is an effective system to stop
contraband to the enemy, but it stops
shipping as well.

Experience the Best Teacher.

1t is generally admitted that expe-
rience is the best teacher, but should
we not make use of the experience OF
others as well as our own? The ex-
perience of a thousand persons is
more to be depended upon than that
of one individual. Many thousands
of persons have used Chamberlain

"By the president.
ROBERT LANSING,
Secretary of State"
Following the presidents proclama-
ton, Secretary of Labor Wilson sent
out a strong appeal to the working
men of the country to participate in
the second Liberty Loan to the fullest
extent The secretary points out that
"the workers have more at stake in
this great conflict than any others,
because it is only in democracy that
the common people can come into their
own" The secretary calls attention
to the fact that all of US cannot serve
our country on the battlefields.
"But there are other ways" he says,
sin which we can serve and assist those
who are privileged to carry our flag
on the battlefelds of Europe.
Sending Youth to Trenches
1.-The impulse of sacrifice for the
common good is sending the youth of
our country into the trenches in de-
fense of liberty, humanity and de-
mocracy To those of US who must of
necessity remain at home to till the
soil, harvest the crops, man the fac
tories, mines and mills, the way is
open for additional service. We must
make sacrifices. The men who go forth
to do battle in the field must be
equipped and sustained.
Funds must be forthcoming to fur
nish the food. the firearms and other
supplies for the fighting forces of the
nation. Finances for that purpose
must be secured Immediately from the
sale of bonds. The workers can help
by contributing their mite.
''The funds each has available is but
a drop, but all of the drops together
can make a shower of funds that will
furnish the needed supplies, bring joy
to the hearts of the boys at the front
and CONSERVATION to our enemies.

have not by that time subscribed to
the second Liberty Loan are urged to

mocracy in striking blow at Prus-

tremendous success.

"The second Liberty Loan gives the
