with the British Armies in the
Field Oct. 22.-About 80 per cent of
Hindenburg's cannon fodder in the re-
cent Ypres sector fighting-nearly
one-third of those whose mangled
bodies carpeted the ground in the Brit
ish advance or were included in the
constant stream of prisoners-were of
the class of 1918.
Nothing could illustrate Germany
waning man-power more forcibly than
this crowding of mere boys into the
front ranks.
Headquarters figures today showed
that of the German total draft OF
1917, approximately one-half had
been made up of what was really the
1913 class.
Thousands Of these German boys
have been sacrificed in the terrible
British artillery fire. One letter found
in the pocket of just such a beardless
boy soldier declared:
10 Out of 40 Survive.
of my company of 40 men all
have been lost except 1S-and the
same ratio applies to my whole regi-
one boyish German diarist entered
this note:
In four days the British have
smashed seven of our divisions"
a captured DdIldllOIl COlILldLueI
report exhibited today at headquar-
tiers complains that his own German
heavy artillery batteries shelled the
German lines for twenty minutes and
that two companies had telephoned
they were leaving their positions.
There yet is another evidence of
desperation of the German high COM
mand over this drain on its man
power. That is in the constant with
drawal of troops from the Russian
front for duty here on the west For
months the Germans have been shunt-
ing troops from the eastern war thea
ter. Now they are bringing guns
from that section to bolster up their
batteries. Captured documents show
that many of the pieces smashed in
the great Flanders drive have been
thus replaced.
Ordered to Hold at All Cost.
There is no mistaking the fact that
Hindenburg is now giving the Crown
Prince Rupprecht all the available
German artillery and men. Fresh
divisions are brought up with orders
to hold at all costs and to retake cap
tured positions at any prices.

sion. President Reed responded for
the visiting officials and several mem
bers of the organization were expected
to discuss state automobile, teaching
and marriage laws during the days
meeting.
Senator Watson Speaker.
Senator James E. Watson, of In
diana, is the speaking attraction be-
fore the convention. Senator Watson
comes to Topeka to discuss "Ameri-
canism." He is regarded as one of the
most able speakers in the nation, and
will bring to the convention the ma
tional viewpoint surrounding the is
sues of the war. Senator Watson will
speak Tuesday night. Because of an
enormous demand for seats, Secretary
Botkin arranged to transfer the meet
ing to the auditorium.
Many Out-Of-tOwn visitors are ex-
pected for the Watson meeting. The
Indiana senator has spoken in Kan
sas several times on former occasions.
His speech Tuesday night will be a,
patriotic talk with the official Wash
ington view of the war problems con-
fronting the nation.
Sessions of the convention will end
some time Wednesday with the cleo
ton of officers. California and Az
kansas have asked for the 1918 con-
vention. New arrivals today, though.
are expected to increase the number of
a lively fight is anticipated when the
next convention city is named.
The secretaries of state convention
was secured for Topeka by J. T. Bot
kin. Kansas secretary of state. He
won the convention in 1915 at Cincin-
natl. Last years convention was post
poned. however, when the political
campaign and the threatened railroad
strike gave the secretaries excellent
reasons for remaining in their home
states

MUST BEND ALL

the welfare commission may launch
at the sessions which opened in the
state house today.
There is the moral one, the environ
ment and the pitfalls and temptations
of the chambermaid lady and the
queenly waitress in the public eating
and sleeping establishments. Many
letters have been received by the state
commission concerning the snares and
temptations of the girls in public eat
ing houses. In numerous cases, re-
ports to the commission have stated,
girls receive as low as SO a week
While no announcement has been
made, 1t is quite probable the state
commission will summon a number of
witnesses during the hearings. Inves-
legations will be extended concerning
a minimum wage and conditions IN
hotels and restaurants will not be
overlooked.

COLD WAVE COMING!
Continued from Page one)

lConllnued from rage One)
tonight, according to Mr.. Flora, and
the cold north wind which was blow
ing 20 miles an hour this morning
will probably increase in velocity by
night and Topeka will have a real win
ter night. Tomorrow the mercury
will not go above As.
A light furry of snow may be re-
corded today, the prediction stated.
A light rain was recorded this morn
ing which may change to snow before
night Snow was reported this morn
ing in Nebraska. In Montana the
mercury was lowering around the 10
degree mark, which was the lowest
the mercury has fallen this season.
The cold snap is moving south and
east, according to Mr.. Flora, and will
probably arrive here in full force this
afternoon and tonight.
The official forecast promises a cold
wave with unsettled weather tonight
Tuesday fair but cold. The weeks
forecast predicts rapid changes from
warm to cold weather and the cold
would last nearly all week.
The lowest temperature on record
for this date was 27, in 1891. and the
highest 81, in 1899.

RUSSIAN FLEET
continued from raee ouel

(Contiuued from !'age Onel
out Of the eight zeppelins with which
it is generally believed the Germans
made their raid over London, gave
powerful impetus today to demand i'm
mediate assumption of an aerial Of
Tense by England
Many newspapers were unspariag
in their criticism of the government s
failure to start the reprisal program
which was announced more than three
weeks ago. There were indications to-
day that this criticism would center
within the next few days in a power
full drive for action thru parliament.
Some pointed questions will undoubt-
eddy be hurled at the government lead
ers.
Why British Defenses Fail?
What the average Londoner cannot
understand is why the French should
be so extraordinarily successful in
bringing down German aircraft while
the supposedly perfect British guns
failed The incident served to create
the most intense Irritation in many
quarters today, because it developed
belief that the government was not
bending every energy toward protec-
ton of the people at home. One crit
icism heard today was that intense riv-
airy between the r. N. A. S. (naval
aviation service) and the R. F. C.
(army aviation serVice) was injurious
and that the announced air ministry.s
first task should be toward obtaining
cooperation rather than competition
between these two branches.
Paris dispatches today indicated
that the French bag was of Zeppelins
of an entirely new type-the dirigibles
which for months have been secretly
tested out over Lake Constance. Of
fetal statements accounted for the
destruction or capture of four of
these. Two others were officially an
nounced as passing point in south
ern France ''out of control" A sew
enth disembarked its wounded and
sped away toward Switzerland.
L-49 Surrenders in Skies.
OF the last three, private dispatches
mentioned one downed near Montigny
Leroi, another destroyed between Gap
and Sisteron apparently the two
which the official statement declared
were seen out of controD and a. third
lost and probably destroyed in the
Alps.
One of the French captures was the
Las, out of the raiding squadron,
which surrendered in the skies and
landed, absolutely unframed, with its
crew of thirty men.

a continuance of activity in war shares at

points. Shippings, Metals, Oils and various
specialists shared in the advance but rails
by Gas shares, manifested some of their
confectionery trend. Trading was broad
and suggested further closing of short con-
tracts.
Pools availed themselves of the general
improvement of the first hour to lift spe-
cial stock. Mexicans were among the favor
ed issues, also Distillers' Alcohol Baldwin
and American Locomotives, Sugars and To-
baccos, United States Steel made little
progress, however, and Coppers reacted
while rails remained apathetic. Utilities
were under greater pressure, Laclede Gas

reduced at midday. Liberty bonds were ac-
tive at the one price Of 1910.
