Making Heavy and Successful At
tacks in the Pinsk Region
PUSHING ALSO THEIR OFFENSIVE AT OTHER POINTS MANY PRUSsAH ARPA sOWER
BOMBS ON LONDON This MORNING

The Russians have surprised the
world by directing heavy attack in
the Pinsk region, hundred and seven
ty-five miles north of the recent eff
forts in Galicia. Petrograd reports
Pinsk in flames and Russian artillery
"levelling all obstacles"
Not only the Pinsk attack is con-
tinuing, but the Russians report more
advances in Galicia. The eleventh
army is reported as having taken some
first line trenches and in some ad-
stances advancing to the second line.
Pinsk has been in German hands since
the memorable German drive in 1915,
which sent the Russians far back on
their own soil.
The British again have slightly ad-
Eanced east of the Wytschaete region
in Belgium. Only artillery duels and
trench, raiding are reported on the
French front.

PURCHASING A CAR
NOW is PATRIOTIC

Money Put i'm Circulation Keeps Bus
mess on a Level Basis-EcOnOmy
Contest of Maxwell Company will
Put $4,000 in Hands of the People.
Patriotism calls upon the individual
expecting to buy a motor car in the
future to purchase it during the "Buy
Your Car Now" week, July 2-9, is the
opinion of Walter E. Flanders, presi-
dent and general manager of the
Maxwell Motor Company, Inc, of De-
troit.
"The continued Business as Usual
asked for by President Wilson is
patriotic demand of the chief execu-
tive on the people not to hoard their
money!" declared Mr.. Flanders.
more money is now being expend-
ed in the United States-and will be
for several years-than ever before
in the history of the country.
millions and millions of dollars
are being spent in the United States
by the warning nations. This money
is going directly into the hands of the
people in the form of wages. Work
ing men and women are better paid
than in the past.
GAS evidence of the intense pros
perity of the country the Maxwell
company this year has had the big
gest production and sales in its his
tory. Tt has grown into third place
in production.
"Why Buy Your Car. Now week
should interest the public is that the
four best months for motoring are
ahead. Money paid for car is put
in circulation-helps keep Business
as Usual
During the past week the Max
well company has closed two con-
tracts involving millions of dollars.
'It is the firm faith in the future
prosperity of the country which Off
cials of the Maxwell company hold
that has placed the company third in
automobile production in a few years.
Those who are going to buy a car will
do well to do it during the Buy Your
Car Now week SO they can take ad-
vantage of the summer months"
One of the ways the Maxwell COM
pany undertook to keep Business as
Usual is the offer of $4,000 United
States Liberty Bonds as prizes TO
Maxwell owners getting the most
mileage on one gallon of gasoline.
This contest started June 16 and ends
July 10.
Thousands of Maxwell owners are
participating in the event.

FALSE IMPRESSION CORRECTED

Ocala, Fla, July z, 1917.
Editor Star: The article appearing
recently in the New York Daily Times
which was reproduced in yesterdays
issue of the Star is capable of Great
iEg the false impression that | have
given up my work here in Ocala and
followed few of my members to the
North for the purpose of forming a
church there.
/ beg of you the kindness to allow
me to state that am not in New
York looking after those who have
recently gone to that section, but am
here in Ocala faithfully looking after
those who have remained at home.
The fact is, that have just return
ed from a trip of several weeks in
the North, where I have been engag-
ed in studying conditions among our
people, and while I am frank to ad-
nit that the study was an intensely
interesting one, and the trip furnish
ed me by friends was in many re-
spects an enjoyable one, that went
with return trip ticket and / re-
turned before it expired.
After spending several weeks in
and around Washington, Baltimore,
Chester, Philadelphia and New York
studying closely the conditions among
my people, | have returned with a
firm persuasion that the South is by
far the better place for the negro, and
that it is only question of time when
the majority of those who have gone
to live in the North will return to live
in the South, and that those of US
who remain at home will be the better
off for having remained.
It's true enough that there are
many conditions in the South which
we wish were different. In many sec
tions there is hatred and race pre-
judice which work a hardship upon
us as a race, but we deceive ourselves
and do our. white friends at the South
q serious injustice when we would
make believe that there is no race
prejudice in the North.
AS to the big negro migration SER
vice held in New York last Sunday,
was not present and did not know that
| had been referred to by any of the
speakers until next day. The speaker
who remarked that my church at
Ocala had been so depleted that had
given up my work in Florida and
followed my members to New York
and was busily re-establishing my
church, probably did not know my
mission to the city. Tt is fact, how
ever, that I did tell him in a conver-
sation that several of my people had
moved North and that had seen
about dozen persons (not families)
there whom I formerly pastored in
the South.
Thanking you for this kindness,
close by saying that / am very thor
oughly convinced that the negro
preacher who remains here in the
South with his people laboring to
bring about better understanding
between his people and our Southern
white neighbors, and in teaching and
helping them to become loyal and
useful citizens, renders to his race a
much greater service than the one
who follows him north. Let the col
ored people settle down again to
work and cease running from pillow
to post wasting time and money.
Things are gradually becoming bet
ter for US in the South while in the
North our liberties are being abridg-
ed and conditions rapidly becoming
worse. A. L. James.

own artillery, without awaiting orders
to fire, right in the midst of the fight
ing.
The French general learned after
wards that the artillery colonel, ex-
pecting something, had gone much ex-
posed to the listening post and OBJ
served unusual activity. The German
colonel gave orders for a curtain fire,
which enabled the French infantry,
not only to repulse the attack, but to
advance position.
Many German youths, around the
ages of eighteen and nineteen, were
killed in the fighting.

AIR RAID ON ENGLAND

London, July 7-One of the great
est, if not the greatest, raids ever at
tempted on London by the Germans
began at 9:t this morning. The
heart of the city was damaged, when
twenty airplanes travelling very rap
idly and at lower altitude than when
SO many people were killed in the
air raid of June 18th, appeared sud-
denly in haze that hung over the
city. The people didn't know a raid
was in progress until the bombs
doomed in their midst and the anti
aircraft guns began to crack. Thou
sands were attracted to the streets
and the police had difficulty handling
the crowds. The Germans were pur-
sued by British airmen and shrapnel
No report of damage or loss of life
was made hours after the raid.

Prohibition
to Prevail
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, July 7.-Senate lead
ers have decided to make efforts to
reconsider the Cummins amendment
to the prohibition feature of the food
bill which prohibits the withdrawal
from bond of distilled spirits. SEN
ator Smith of George was picked to
make the motion for reconsideration
Administration leaders believed the
amendment would be adopted because
of a Change of sentiment over
night" With this. feature out of the
way the adoption of the administra-
ton amendment is thought probable.
In the first real test of the strength
of the vets and drys in the Senate
yesterday the vote of So to 81 reject
ed an amendment to the proposal for
the prohibition of distilled beverages,
and which would also have prohibited
the manufacture of malt beverages.
After reconsideration the Senate
voted to retain an amendment pro-
hibiting imports of distilled bever-
ages and also prohibiting the with
drawal of distilled spirits that are in
bond for beverages uses.
The defeat of the bone dry pro-
=posal insures that legislation prohib-
iting the manufacture of intoxicants
will be limited to distilled beverages.
Whether the consumption as we'll as
the manufacture of distilled spirits
shall cease during the war depends
on this new element injected as the
eleventh hour, which completely dis
rupted the leaders plans and caused
a recess for conference on conpro-
mise.
The prohibition forces are elated
over the possibility of stopping the
consumption, as well as the manufac-
ture of whisky and other hard bev-
erages.
The compromise amendment pend
ing will authorize the president to
permit the withdrawal of distilled
spirits from the warehouses if he be-
lieved it of public interest to do so.
Upon disposition of the prohibition
section the leaders expect to seek an
agreement for final vote on the food
bill by next Wednesday or Thursday.

this afternoon reversed its action
taken yesterday to prohibit with
drawals of liquors in bonded ware
houses by vote of 43 to 80. The vote
OF the resolution to reconsider was
