WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Italian
aviators report heavy concentration of
Austro- German divisions behind the
lines of the invaders and official dis
patches today from Rome express the
opinion that the exceptionally mild
weather may induce the German high
command to attempt a new offensive

BOYCOTT OF DINERS
WOOLMAN'S THREAT

Chicago, July 24.-S. n. Mcclure OF
Salt Lake, secretary of the National
Wool Growers association, today de-
boycott every railroad that adopted
the proposed plan OF refusing to serve
spring lambs in their dining cars. Ae-
cording to Secretary Mcclure the
stock dealers will refuse to patronize
the diners on these roads and will shir
their stock over other lines
At a meeting of superintendents OF
dining car systems OF practically every
western road held in Chicago July II
1t was decided to cut from the menu
spring lamb and other young meats in
compliance with the federal govern
ment's plans for the conservation OF
food.
Secretary Mcclure in a telegram re-
ceived in Chicago today said:
1.-THE proposal of the dining car PEG
pie to boycott lamb will be followed
by the stockmen and their followers
staying out of the dining cars and
shipping stock over only such roads
as give stockmen a square deal. Dun
stockmen took their share of Liberty
bonds. gave beautifully to the Red
Cross and will be heavy payers of wa,
taxes. If their products are to be
boycotted simply because they have
risen in price along with every com
modify, then our only recourse is to
do some boycotting ourselves. Oui
stockmen are going, to demand q
square deal. If We cannot sell our
products we will stop raising them
Officials of Chicago roads said they
would aid the government in it's cam
paign for food conservation despit
the threat of the western stockmen.

DENIES CONSTITUTIONAL SYSTEM Of
BR|TA|NTHATO CROWNED REPUBLIC

LONDON-(Correspondence Of the
Associated Press.)-Suggestion that
the constitutional system Of the
British empire is really that of a
crowned republic and that an organf
cation to give expression to republi'
can sentiments is required in England
has been scornfully repudiated by the
Maharajah Of Bikaner. The Maha,
rajah declared that he spoke in oe"
half of the Indian empire, the native
princes, the Indian army and the
masses Of the people. Referring to a
letter published in London paper in
which the republican suggestions were
made, the Maharajah said
Il think he would be a bold man
who would say that a form of govern
ment which might be found satisfac-
tory in some other country in alto
gether different circumstances would
be the one panacea for the British
empire. Can we look with anything
but serious alarm upon any suggestion
for weakening the very foundations OF
the system which has welded to-
gether in ever increasing strength the
various parts Of the empire in sun
shine and in storm.

timents, and our traditions deeply in

GIVE The eoYs A CHEER
By DOROTHY DIX
The Worlds Highest Paid woman
Writer

livery woman is asking nowadays
- how she can do her bit In THIS
L. terrible war into which we have
been plunged. Here is one concrete
thing she can do. She can give the
men who are going 10 the 'front.' a
cheer. She can buck them up. she
can add her courage to thei' courage
and so make them, invincible.
. Perhaps it is because the sacrifice
that is asked Of them is so new and
strange and unexpected that the wo'
men of America have not yet risen 70
the supreme height OF being able TO
cheerfully offer u, that which is
dearer TO them than life itself on the
altar Of their country. Perhaps II IS
because women themselves find such
comfort in tears that they can never
understand how weeping weakens
man.
However that ma be, 1t is a fact
that the wives and mothers who have
been able to turn a brave face on
their husbands and sons who have
started forth on that fearsome jour
ney to somewhere in France" have
been few and far between. Most OF
the men who have gone, and who are
about to start to answer their coun'
try.s call. are having to fight a more
dangerous and demoralizing foe than
any they will ever confront in battle
the despair and heartbreak OF the
dear women they are leaving behind
them.
The officer in command Of one OF
the training camps declared the other
day that the hardest thing he had to
contend against was the letters the
boys got from home. These letters,
filled with dark forebodings for the
future and telling a man how he was
missed and about the vacant chair at
the table, and his empty room, and
how the baby cried for, papa at night,
or how his old dog wandered about
the house like q restless ghost look
ing for him, and how she wept every
time she saw his old hat on the rack,
and how she thought what she would
ever do X he never came back, and
how she could neither eat nor sleep,
nor work nor do anything but think
OF the terrible things that might hap
pen TO him-why," said the officer, "a
letter like that, and it's the kind OF
letter that nine women out Of tea
write to their men In amp--breaks g
man all up so that he's no good for
hours after he gets It. Il completely
destroys his morale"
The women who write these sob
letters do Il In all love and tender
ness. and without q thought Of the
torture they are inflicting on those
who are nerving themselves, as best
they may, TO face the horrors Of the
most terrible ordeal that human be-
ings have ever been called upon to
endure. For our men are not going
ignorantiy. gaily, blithely to the
frenches They know all that il
means Of danger and death, and they
are not answering the lure Of mad
