WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-The food
administrators big drive to mobilize
Americas kitchens for the duration
of the war started throughout the
nation today. Half million volun-
teers began invading the country's 8
22,000,000 households and personally
inviting each housewife to sign the
food pledge to conserve wheat, meat,
fat and sugar. Aiding is am army
of $4,000 four minute men scattered
to the country's movie houses and
street corners to catch the housewife
while she's shopping and tell her why
the success of food pledge week is
important to the winning of the war.
Food pledge week. postponed until
now to avoid conflict with the Lib
erty loan finale will end Saturday
night.
Upon the success or failure OF
Americas households to join the
food conservation movement" said
Food Administrator Hoover, s'will
largely stake the issue Of this war,
Lord Northcliffe Of the British gov
ernment and Baron e. DeCartier,
commissioner from Belgium today
added their voices to Hoover's in an
appeal to the housewives of this
country.
America" said Baron DeCartier,
"has kept Belgium from starving.
Those in Europe who are extending
every effort to crush Prussian autoc-
racy forever, need food. America
must supply far the greater proper
ton Of this. Is it grand concep-
tion, worthy the ideals and tradi-
tions of the greatest republic. that
this food shall be supplied by the
voluntary effort of individual citi-
zens. Thus they will assure victory
in the war"
''The boys" said Northcliffe, "who
are enduring the hell of the trenches
cannot hold out if ill-fed. The stu
alton we have to face In food pledge
week is obvious. Either the stay-at.
homes must save SO the soldiers may
get their vital needs, or the soldiers
must go short so the stay-at-homes
may fatten. You must take your
choice"

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES IN
FLANDERS, Oct. 29.-Three fifteen
inch shells. fired from a distance ut
seven miles, struck squarely on their
target of a German blockhouse at
Papegoed wood and permitted French
poilus, fighting like mad for glimpses
of their own homes slightly behind
the German lines. TO out their way to
a victory in the latest France-Brit-
ish advance In Flanders.
1t was this marvelously accurate
shooting last Friday which opened
the way for the French smash. A
great eight-chambered concrete block
house in the center OF Papegoed
wood had long held up further French
advance. Finally French aviators
ranged" it. Huge French guns
fired just three Of their enormous
shells at this range. The first mis-
tered the solid concrete and the
third passed inside. Practically all
Of the garrison in this formidable
defense was killed.
The few forlorn, crazed men who
did survive of the sixty German sol
diers Of the 1S1st infantry, staggered
into the French lines deaf and dumb
from shell shock Their clothes had
been stripped from them; some were
fearfully mangled The stamp OF an
inexpressible horror were on their
drawn faces. Reduction Of the block
house enabled the French engineers,
working neck-deep in ST. Janasbeek
and Coverbeek river to throw up
bridges and trestles along which
French infantry later charged to
brilliant victory.
These charging troops were borne
along with the irresistible force Of
men fighting like fiends to throw
back an enemy and see their own
homes just beyond.
Most of the French regiments now
on this line are from Lille and other
cities close to the present fighting
lines.
Many left their loved ones behind
to answer mobilization calls-and
have not heard from them since.
These men performed superhuman
fighting feats. Hand 10 hand. in
bloody fighting, they beat back the
Germans, half swan through

their gains despite every effort Ger

LONDON, Oct. 29.-The Italian sit
uatton dominated the whole wal
viewpoint today.
Engulfed by an overwhelmingly su.
perior force in men and guns, 1taly's
armies were fast being thrown back
in a rout. The whole British press
was unanimous today in insisting that
the allies must grant immediate aid.
Although all circles reiterated their
confidence in General Cadorna' s
strength and ability to stem the tide,
nevertheless many newspapers to-
day pointed out that the enemy pow
ers had been gravely miscalculated
by the allies.
General Cadorna's admission Of dis
satisfaction in his ranks, was more
disquieting than the losses-stagger-
ing as these have been reported by
Berlin and Vienna The Teutons were
now claiming 100000 prisoners and
seven hundred guns.
If Italy's morale holds up, it was
regarded as certain that Cadorna
would be able to make stand on the
plains. Before that time 1t was ex-
pected that allied aid would be reach
ing Italy.
The political effect Of the German
drive was more feared here than the
military results The Italians are out
in men more than four to
one along practically the whole of
the attacking front.
The Germans massed their mer be-
hind the pines and smuggled guns in
to position at night. Their bonn
bardment opened with terrific fire
from guns whose positions had not
even previously been suspected by
the Italians. No such artillery fire
has been attained by the Germans
since verdun as that which was pour
ed over the Italian positions.
Outnum in guns and men,
Cadorna's troops from that time on
were victims Of a great war machine
pursuing the same tactics which the
Germans so successfully adopted in
Rumania and war machinery adopted
by the master who conducted the
Rumanian campaign, General Macken-
sen. How tremendous is the driving
power of this great machine is indi-
Gated in the fact that several hundred
