Berlin reports the repulse of Italian
attacks against positions west of the

Dispatches from the British front
in France report an attack by the
Germans in progress in the region Of
Connelcu in the Cambrai battle area.
The point struck lies at the southerly
base of the salient formed by General
Byng's recent advance.
The early advices did not disclose
whether the attack was merely rela-

a more ambitious attempt by the Ger

lumbus, o. Krick came to Richmond
for conference with Fuel Director

Use of natural gas for Industrial

be occasionally anticipated.
The Logan company serves the
Richmond Light, Heat and Power
company and recently the gas supply
has been quite low at times in Rich
mond.
Gas shortage which has occurred so
far this winter has been due to both
a coal shortage and the fact that many
industrial concerns which have hither.

months have been depending upon
this fuel for winter use.

NOVEMBER BAD
MONTH FOR FIRE

Fires during the month of Novem-
ber caused more damage than was
caused during the combined proceed
ing months this year, according to
Fire Chief Miller Friday.
The total less during the month is
estimated at 1912. The fire depart
ment answered twenty alarms.
Most of the fires could have been
prevented according to Chief Miller.
Defective flues and sparks from Chin
neys, lighting shingled roofs caused
the greater percentage of the fires.

SLACKERS CANNOT EVADE SERVICE
 THRU MARRIAGE
War Department Order Says N ewlyweds Will be
 Treated as Unmarried.

Washington, April 19.-Men of military age who have married since a state of war against Germany was declared will not escape their obli- gation of military service, under a war department polic..- formally an- nounced today.
 The statement follows:
 "The war department announces that all men married since the out break of war will be treated upon the same basis as unmarried men, in so far as their military obligations are concerned. It is desired that the ut most publicity be given to this an- nouncement."
 The department was moved to this action so that all men might under stand exactly what is contemplated in the organization of an army 70 fight Germany. It was desired that there should arise no question of "slackers" upon the score of mar riage contracted since the outbreak of war, with the possible construc- ton that the marriage, in any case, was hastened to evade military duty.
