RICH WOMEN Do BIT
UNDER AUSPICES OF
Y.M.C.A. IN FRANCE
Confidence Expressed That
Idaho Will Oversubscribe
It's Allotment of $85, 600 to
Assist Association.

American women are doing their
bit" in France. Actuated by patri-
otto motives, anxious to lend a hand in
the greatest conflict Of all ages, to re-
iteve suffering and serve the men that
are so CALAMITY fighting for world
democracy, some Of the brightest, rich
est and most capable American women
are in Y. M. c. A. huts In France serv-
ing tea and chocolate, washing dishes
and scrubbing floors is the news that
reaches the Idaho headquarters.
Mrs. Vincent Astor, one of the rich
est women in the world. may be seen
any day "over there" doing the most
mental labor for her boys, the men
who are soon to go over the top, to
lay down their lives for the cause for
which they are striving.
1t was only a short time ago that
Mrs. Aston served tea to the former
steward of her private yacht. She
served him willingly. She washed the
dishes after him and she scrubbed the
table that it might be clean for him
when he returned--if he ever did.
WOMEN PERFORM HARD WORK.
American women are in France doing,
all sorts of hard work. They are in
the Y. M. c. A. buildings and thousands
of soldiers crowd about them to hear
their, voices. the voices which sound
like the voices they knew at home.
And now to keep this wonderful work
going, to serve the American soldiers
at home and abroad, 5000, 900 is
needed. A great national drive will
start Nov. II for that sum to serve the
soldiers through the Y. M. c. A., the
nearest thing to home that the boys
know.
The finest women in the world are
giving their money and their time 1t
is up to the men to give as Loyalty.
Money must be raised to continue this
work 1t must come from the people.
1t is all for the fighting men, to make
them happier. to keep them physically
and morally fit.
That Idaho will oversubscribe its al
lotment of $4,000 is the ambition and
belief of r. Z. Randall, state campaign
manager.

Federal Authorities Take
Steps to Put Down Dis
loyal Acts-Two Indicted
for Failing to Register
After Labor Agitators.

The federal government. Is on the
trail of those preaching disioyalty or
who are alleged to have influenced
others to be disloyal to their country
when 1t is at war. This Is the view
taken by those interested in the cam
paign to route out those of pro- Ger
man sentiments. The federal grand
Jury made it's first move at Moscow,
where the court is sitting at the pres
ent time. by indicting Edward Hot
stede,- an Orofino attorney and So
cialist. charged with influencing King
Moores and Leland Moores to evado
the draft law The Moores were in
dictcd on the charge of failing to reg
lister and entered pleas of guilty.
Hofstede's activities in northern
Idaho have held the attention of fed
eral officials for some time. He has
been prominent because of his utter
ances and alleged campaigning among
men of draft age.
TRUE BILL NOT FOUND.
The court took up number of other
cases bearing on loyalty. The grand
jury failed to return an indictment
against Ernest Hansen, Lewiston car
penter, charged with violating the es-
ponage act. and the case of Phil Pearl.
Lewiston barber, charged with circu-
lating seditious literature, was not con-
sidered by the grand jury. Pearl re-
turned TO. Lewiston this evening and
Hansen will go to Lewiston tomorrow.
Hansen is member of the Lewiston
trades council and charged his arrest
to activities of members of the council
with whom he had differences. Pearl
was active in Lewiston In labor agi-
tations and was an officer of the trades
council. He commended from the be-
ginning that his arrest was not due
to any unpatriotic act or utterance,
but was the result of his labor ac-
tivities.
Both Hansen and Pearl were ar
rested by the Montana soldiers sta
toned at Lewiston. The soldiers acted
only in the matter OF serving warrants

PERSHING Is PUSHING
ARMY PREPARATIONS
American Commander in France
and Marshal JOffre Are
Now "PalS"
PARIS. June p.


General John J. Pershing. commander OF
the United States forces that will fight in
France, and Marshal Joffre have become
pals" The friendship which sprung up
between these gallant soldiers when they
first met has grown into intimate comrade-
ship.
The fact that Marshal Joffre was made
military adviser TO the American command
enables the two officers to see each other
frequently. General Pershing had much diff
fculty over his French at first, but II is
rapidly improving and his friends say that
soon he will be able to talk in French as
easily as in English
Satisfactory progress is being made In
the preparations for the American Army.
Organization is a hobby with General
Pershing, and he has a chance to give II
free rein in the present circumstances, No
details of the work are being given out at
headquarters, but 1t is said on reliable au-
thority that American help will be used "a
a large extent in building new railroads
Furthermore ii Is suggested that the
business phase Of the work in hand be con,
solidated and that some American business
man of the first magnitude be sent over tc
take charge.
While the French expect much from the
United States the newspapers are warning
the people against exaggeration.

LENNIN AND LEOPOLD
SEEN IN PEACE PLOT


THAT King Leopold Of Bavaria com
nanding German forces on the Stockhod
front. has conspired with the Russian
aritator. Lennin, toward getting separate
peace without annexation or contribution,
was the deduction from State Department
message today.
The message said Lennin had spoken be-
fore the Russian Workmen's and Soldiers
congress June 23 In favor Of a separate
peace NJ. Vierensky then spoke announc-
ing he would repeat Lennin's speech. Read
ing from a manuscript he virtually dupli-
Gated the agitator's utterances, whereupon
he announced that the document was in
reality an intercepted wireless signed by the
King of Bavaria.
The conclusion from this is that Lennin
received the message and delivered it as his
speech.
vierenskys revelation stirred the con-
gress.
The extreme Socialists had planned an
antf-Ciovernment demonstration for June
2s. but abandoned the idea after the Gov
ernment prohibited the assemblage. The
Government had the support OF the con.
gress in this step.
