OF FRESH TURKEY
PROMISED FOR CHRISTMAS
Poultry Administrator Finds Ban
on Killing of Young Fowl Has
proved Effective.

The promise that New York City
will he bountifully supplied with fresh
Christmas turkey was made to-day
by H. Priebe. head of the poultry
division OF the Federal Food Admin
istration in Washington. after a con-
ference with Arthur Williams, Fed
eral Food Administrator In New
York City and representative OF the
large poultry dealers here.
Mr.. Priebe said that he had made
canvass of the poultry situation
throughout the country and was
convinced that the measures adopted
against the killing OF young turkeys
for Thanksgiving would result in a
large supply of mature fowls for
Christmas. He added that the Ad-
ministration hoped to arrive at a
srale of prices for fresh-killed Christ
mas turkeys that would be about the
same as that which was in effect fol
Thanksgiving.
The general situation as regards
leftover stocks Of cold storage poul-
try was discussed at the conference
No definite action was taken.

INVADERS DIG IN
ON ITALIAN FRONT
AS DRIVE HALTS
Intense Artillery Duel RageS
and British Monitor Wrecks
Pontoon Bridge.

ROME, Dec. There Is intense ar
tillery action on both sides and It is
problematical whether the invading
Austro- Germans or the Italians will
strike first. The lull In infantry fight
ing is taken TO mean that the initial
force OF the German blow has spent
itself. and this view increases In
strength with the report that the in
vaders are digging themselves In
along the line OF the Tagllamento Riv-
err as though expecting to be driven
back from the Piave. On the other
hand, there are other reports that the
Austro- Germans are planning another
great blow In the north IN "a desperate
effort TO break through and enter the
plains OF Venezia.
Whatever bo the German plan, II
must be revealed Immediately. for the
winter Is setting in In the mountains
strongly favoring tho Italians
The official report from the War
Office last night said:
The artillery struggle, which has
been growing more intense on the
whole front, was particularly brisk
In the region OF Mcletta, ON the Ash
ago Plateau and on the plains along
the Middle and Lower Pave.
"ln tho coastal area a British mon
itor obtained direct nit and severed
a bridge OF boats which tho enemy
had thrown across the river In the
vicinity OF Passarella.
Above tho Aslago an enemy air
plano was downed In an aerial com
bat.
Last night an enemy encampment,
between Feltre and FOnzas, was hom-
barded effectively by our machines"
The lessenlng OF the intensity OF the
enemy attacks along the northern
front Is regarded as forecasting the
moving OF activity to other points
either for massed attacks or In prep
aratIon OF defensive positions capable
OF meeting the italians, reinforced BY
| the British and French, in a con-
| certed advance.
The arrival OF American officers I,
regarded as highly satisfactory, and
J perhaps significant of coming events
| I'm to the present the American Gov,
ernment has required military an,
naval observers to remain compare
lively inactive in Italy, so as not 4

America is yet at peace.
