RUSSIA CLAIMS
ATTACKS REPULSED
In NeighbOrho0d Of Riga, Heavy Fight
ing Continues, and Germans Lose
Island i'm DYina River Recently
Captured by Their Forces.
(AssOciated Press Summary

The invasion Of Rumania by the
troops of the central powers contin-
ues to progress, despite the efforts of
Russians and Rumanians to hold
them back.
Berlin records that the invaders,
driving eastward into Moldavia from
the Transylvanian Alps, are gaining
ground step by step, while the forces
of Field Marshal Won Mackensen,
driving northward into Moldavia, won
additional ground, reaching the Putna
river sector.
In this fighting the Teutonic al
lies, according to Berlin, have taken
and 10 machine guns. Petrograd ad-
mits that the Russians along the line
of the Putna and Sereth rivers have
fallen back, but says the maneuvera
were carried out without hindrance.
Slight retreat by the Russians in the
Kassna river region is also recorded
by Petrograd, but it is asserted that
south of the Oituz river and near
Rekoza, on the Suchitza river. at
tacks by troops of the central powers
were rerulsed.
There is still vigorous fighting in
northern Russia, in the region of
Riga. Berlin reports the repulse of
the Russians on both sides of the
river IA and between Frederickstadt
and the Mitau-Olai read. The Rus
slams, however, have recaptured an
island in the Dvina river, north of IL
loikst, which was taken from them
recently by the Germans. Petrograd
reports also the repulse of German
attacks south of Lake Babit, west of
Riga.
In the other theatres, according to
the various official communications,
,bombardments and minor raids by
small patrols, continue to prevail.
Greece has been given As hours by
the entente, in which to comply with
their demand for the withdrawal OF
all the Greek troops in Thessaly, the
reduction in the number of Greek
forces elsewhere, the release of po-
.litical prisoners in Greece and an
apology by Greece to the allied ma
tions and their flags, for the recent
attack upon entente troops by Greek
troops.

FUND
TO TEACH BOYS
USEFUL TRADES
House and Senate Both Pass
Measure Advocating Vo-
cational Training.

Washington, Jan. 9.-CongressiOnal
approval of federal cooperation in
vocational education, al step advocated
by labor leaders and educators, and
recommended by President Wilson in
his address at the opening of the
present session, was given today,
when the house passed the Hughes
bill. similar to a measure passed by
the senate at the last session. making
an appropriation for the training and
employment of teachers in state
schools, to help prepare boys and
girls for useful employment.
Some differences between the two
measures remain to be adjusted in
conference, but congressional leaders
believe they can be disposed of, so
that the first appropriation will be
available by July 1.
The amount appropriated for the
first year will be $1,700,000, and a
general fund is authorized for each
succeeding year, until the annual
total of $7,20O000 is reached nine
years hence. The administration OF
the system will be in charge OF a
board created by the bill, and in or
Ger to participate in the distribution,
each state must appropriate an
amount equal to the federal allotment
to it, and must create state board
to cooperate with the federal Off
cials in co-ordinating the work.
