San Juan, Porto Rico, Sept. A.
A statement that the commercial rate
of so cents word between the United
States and Porto Rico in connection
with the present censorship regula-
tions is adding half million dollars
year to the cost of living on the
island, is contained in a letter sent
by leading Porto Rican brokers to
President Wilson. They ask that the
present rate be reduced or the CEN
sorship regulations be modified, or
both.
The brokers and merchants urge
that the president consider Porto
not as foreign territory for cabling
purposes in view of recent court de-
cisions holding that it is an organized
territory incorporated into the United
States and that there should be no
more restrictions on communications
between the island and the United
States than between any two points
in the United States proper. They
contend also that the rate of so cents
a word is prohibitive in view of the
censorship regulations which prohibit
the use of private codes or any stand
ard code which the merchants consid-
er particularly adapted to the provi-
sion business.

Unofficial advices say that behind

The Germans at several points

French line. The artillery duels near
Verdun continue unabated.
Intensive air raidlng has been car

the southeastern English coast, in
their last raid having penetrated the

while British and French airmen have
effectively bombed German positions
