ITALIANS ARMY
FACE TEST
cADORNA'S FORCES SUF-
FER HARD BLOW
Great Armies Under Com
mand of the Emperor of
Austria.

Italy's mettle is being critically
tested, by the tremendous Teutonic
drive under command of Emperor
Charles of Austria on the Isonzo
front, with what seems virtually the
entire Austrian army and strong
German forces.
From the first blow General Ca
dorna's second army has suffered a
serious shock and Berlin claipas the
defeat of this section of the Italian
forces from which it announces the
capture of no less than 10000 men
and $50 guns.
These grave losses seem to bear out
the German claim as to the fate OF
this Italian army, but apparently the
crucial hour has not yet come which
will determine whether the Austro-
German host can be held at the
mountain passes and prevented from
overfowing into the fertile plains of
Venezia.
Semi-official utterances reveal that
all possible preparations have been
made in Rome to meet the great
emergency. Each day, however,
sees the invading armies making ad-
ditional headway. Berlin claims that
virtually the entire Italian Isonzo
front has been shaken.
From the Western front the most
important news to Americans was
that of the presence of American
troops in the first trenches along side
of French infantry, and of American
artillery parked with French batter
les sending the first American aimed
shots of the war at the German lines.
y The British in Flanders were en-
gagged Saturday in making secure the
positions they won Friday, the most
important of which was that on the
Bellevue Sour, west of Passchen~
daele, valuable dominating ridge
brilliantly taken and held by the Ca.
nadians in hard fighting.
The French on the Flanders line
went further ahead Saturday, cap
turing German trenches north Of the
objectives reached on Friday.
The Russians are continuing to
move ahead in the Riga region, ap-
parently with some catution.

tary final rehearsal for the grim days
of conflict to come, and such fight
ing as may occur probably will serve
only to give the men zest for the
greater adventure ahead.
In time, a complete section of the
front will be Americanized in every
detail. How wide this front will be,
where on the long line it is to be
located, and similar questions are
matters about which no speculation
is permitted. Today's announcement
brings appreciably closer, however,
the day when the actual fighting
front of the American army in
France will be established and when
American energy will be engaged
directly in the task of crushing Ger
man military power.
The long period of waiting and
preparation is past it's first irksome
stages. From now on the military
power of the United States in France
will grow steadily and the results of
the months of army building will be-
gin to make themselves felt in hard
driven steel against the German
ranks.

WAR TIME PROFIT
WILL Be CURBED
prevailing MARKET CON-
DITION NOT GUIDE
Food Administration Issues De
cree in Special Regulation
Effective November 1.

Washington, Oct. 27.-Wholesalers'
profits in war times, at least on nom
perishable foods, should be governed
by the price they actually pay and
not by prevailing market codition,
the food administration has decfeed
in special regulation which will be
put into effect November 1 with re-
spect to a number of commodities.
The rule is one of many drawn up
for the food procurers who will be
placed under licenses next Thurs
day, said a statement tonight by
Food Administrator Hoover, and the
commodities affected include beef,
pork and mutton, syrup and molasses
cleaned rice and rice -four, oleomar-
garine, Lard and lard substitutes, oleo
oil, cooking fats, condensed milk and
verious canned goods and dried
fruits.
No dealer in these commodities,
the rule says, shall sell "at more than
than a reasonable advance over the
actual purchase price of the parti-
cular goods sold without regard to the
market or replacement value at the
time of such SALE"
Wholesale dealers in refined sugar
are forbidden by a similar rule to
sell at advance over the refners' list
price at which he purchased sugar,
nor greater than the normal margin
charged by wholesale dealers in re-
fined sugar in the same locality for
such margin as may hereafter be
established by the food administra-
ton.
With regard to perishable foods
the food administration announced
that it will make prompt and full
examination of any localities in which
increases in price occur and will
deal individually by administrative
orders with dealers charging exces-
sive prices.
A general rule covers all licensed
food privileges that they shall not be
handled anywhere in the United
States on an unjust, or storage
charge" Regular and special report
will be called for by the food admin
isration from such licensed dealer.
In its statement the food admins
tration emphasized the fact that no
business man will be expected to fore
go his normal reasonable profits, the
sole object being ito prevent the ac-
quisition of speculative profits result
ing from rising market"

the command of Emperor Charles,
who has as his chief assistant the
brilliant Field Marshal van Macken-
sen, are shaking the entire Italian
line from the Julian Alps region to
the Adriatic sea-. Pressing back the
Italians at several points on Italian
soil, the combined enemy forces have
pushed forward on the Italian left
wing and captured Cividale, lying to
the northeast of Udine, and are near
ing thp claims beyond. In addition,
the Austrian town of Gorilla, point
of great strategic value on the Ison-
20 river has been retaken from the
Italians. ...
According to the latest Berlin off,
cial communication, 100000 Italians
have been made prisoners and in ex-
cess of 700 guns have fallen into
Austro-G Grman hands. The second
and third Italian armies are declared
to be in retreat.
Rome Charges Cowardice

the Russians in Galacia, was exhib-
tied in the face of the foe, the Ital-

breaking of the left wing and there
by offering easy access to the town
of Cividale. Prior to falling back,
however, the Italians destroyed all
their depots and stores and Cividale
was on fire when the Austro- Germans
entered it.
Possibly the Italians in this region
who are declared by Rome to~be-re-
treating to prepared positions on
the plains, will turn about and meet
the enemy in open country fighting.
If they do not and the enemy is
able to keep up westward the fast
pace that has been maintained. since
the commencement of the operation,
the greater part of the Italian forces
along the northeastern line, will be
threatened with capture. The situa-
ton is so grave that special meet

held for the purpose of deciding up.

washington, OcC. Io.-Ahe ii"eAo
was thrilled today by word that Am
erican troops at last were face 70
face with the Germans across NO
Mans Land. Announcement by Gen.
eral Pershing that several battallons
of his infantry were in the front
line trenches supported by American
batteries which already had gone IN
action against the enemy famed
new flame of patriotism throughout
the country.
The absolute silence with when
Secretary Baker and war department
officials greeted the news, however,
showed that although the movement
into the trenches had been expected
at any time, it was regarded only as
the final phase of the mems training
"a military finishing school con-
Quoted under fire, a school of blood
and iron. German shells are break
ing about the Americans and, al
though they have not taken over the
trench sector, rifles, machine guns
bombs and boyonets in American
hands will greet any enemy attack.
No Surprise Caused.
The silence of Secretary Baker in
dicated that no official report of the
occupation of the trenches had been
received. General Pershing is the
Judge of all matters pertaining to the
training of his force and he probably
does not inform the department OF
his plans in advance, as every effort
was made to prevent the enemy from
learning what was afoot. 1t is GER
tain, however, that the department
was fully prepared for the news. Sec
retary Bakers latest review OF the
war situation this week indicated
that American troops were nearing
sthe end of their strenuous training
behind the lines. They have pro-
pressed so rapidly in the art of mod
ern warfare that their commanders
and French instructors believed them
ready for the final lesson.
Casualties among the American
forces are to be expected. Reports
! from the front already show inter-
mittent artillery firing and a we'll
aimed shell may claim American VIC
tins at any moment. There is moth
ing to indicate, however, that any
offensive operation by the Americans
and their French associates is to be
expected, outside of possible trench
raiding. The sector where the front
line training school has been estab-
lished is described as one of the
ouietest on the front and if this con-
: dition continues it will tend to mini
mize losses.
Good Reason For Quiet.
There is believed to be some good
reason why the sector is quiet. 1t
may be a feeling on both sides that
nothing is to be gained by attack
and counterattack. The character
of the country, disposition of re-
serve bases, difficulties of transporta-
ton or many other considerations
might be responsible for the inactivi-
ty.
The report from the front indi-
Gates that all American forces will
be given trench duty in reliefs as the
final touch of their preparation. The
whole business of relieving and sup
plying the front lines can be carried
on under actual war conditions and
under fire. 1t appears tc be mill
