Canadians Keep
Fruits of Great
Victory
(By William Pbilinn simmsl

United Press Staff Correspondent.
With the British Armies in
Flanders, Nov. THE Canadians
held tight to the British victory at
Passchendaele today and stood
their grounds all through the night
and in the face of the most terri
bic artillerying possible. The
Germans under direct orders from
Hindenberg, had been ordered to
retake the ridge and repeated
counter assaults were beaten back.
The British artillery today is
bombarding Roulers, (the key, to
the German line of communication
to the coastal line of submarine
bases. The British lines are this
afternoon within five miles of
Roulers and from behind the line
the British s big guns began the
pulverising of Roulers this morn
ing. The bombardment is unceas-
ing. High American army officials
saw the British go over the top
of the famous ridge.

The dense fog which enveloped the
roads of Kenosha county this morning
almost caused a tragedy when the tour
ing car, driven by DR.. Werner, of the
Pleasant Prairie community, and car
rying four passengers, turned turtle
just west of the Mungen Tavern to
avoid running into another car which
the fog had made it impossible to see.
Herman Forket and Sam Bohannon,
both riding in the back seat, were
caught beneath the car and suffered
painful if not serious injuries. Forket
was brought to the Kenosha Hospital
and although no bones are broken, he
is In a critical condition from internal
injuries Bohannon escaped with but
slight scratches and was able to return
to his home after visiting a physician.
The other occupants of The car, DIR.
and Mrs. Werner, escaped without in
jury but suffered a considerable nerv,
Gus shock from the accident DIR. Wer-
ner who was driving east at fair rate
of speed was struck and thrown into
the ditch by a west bound automobile.
The accident was unavoidable in that
neither driver was able to see the 9TH
er Bat they were too close to
avoid collision. The Werner car
turned completely over and was left
wrecked at the side of the road. The
left rear wheel was demolished by the
weight thrown upon it and this ac-
counted for the fact that the occupants
of the back seat were injured While
DIR. and Mrs. Werner escaped.
The driver and owner of the second
car in the collision did not reveal his
name. His car was not damaged ma
terially by the accident but he was
willing to stand his share of the ex-
pense. From his story of the affair
and that of men who came 70 the scene
of the accident shortly after it oc-
Cured, it appears extremely fortunate
that no serious injuries were incurred
by the occupants of the two cars. The
fact that both drivers were proceeding
with caution and that Werner turned
slightly to the right to avoid 2 head-on
collision is considered responsible for
the little injury which was sustained

live UP TO THE AGREEMENT
President Holt Says Every Milk Pro-
Queer Is to Meet Agreement and That
Those Who Kick Over the Traces
Should be Promptly Prosecuted.

Frank T. Holt of Pleasant Prairie,
president of the Milk Producers Assoc
citation, this morning issued call for
great "milk meeting which is to
be held at the Bijou Theatre in Racine
on Saturday morning at which time it
is the plan of the milk producers to
take the public into their confidence.
The meeting is called with a view Of
having every person in the counties of
Racine and Kenosha, who is interested
in the milk situation, know just what
agreements have been made and what
legislation is to be suggested in order
to stabilize the milk business in this
and other sections of Wisconsin. It is
not meeting behind closed doors, but
every one will be welcomed and every
angle of the problem will be discussed
President Holt will preside at the
meeting and the other speakers will
include Food Commissioner Harry A.
Wheeler, of Chicago; Attorney General
Walter Owen, of Madison; w. J. Kit
tie, secretary Of the Milk Producers
Association; Thomas NJ Kearney, of
Racine; Charles Pierce, of GAINESVILLE,
and Miles G. Riley of Madison.
"We want every milk producer in
Kenosha county to attend this meet
ing; we want every man and woman
in the county interested in the milk
problem from any standpoint to be
there declared President Holt this
morning. eve want the people to
understand that we have made this
agreement as to the price of milk with
the government officials and others in
good faith and we want it understood
that the members of this association
are expected to live up to this agree
ment to the very letter. Tt is admitted
that the milk producers are going to
lose some money at the present prices
set for milk, but it is understood that
fhe losses of the present months will
be made good later when the agree
ment for the spring months is made
and the producers viii be allowed a
price for their milk which will make
possible the recouping of these losses
without an increased price of milk to
the consumer. 1t may be that few

London, Nov. Reconsideration

today by Filed Marshal Haig He
made no mention of any German
counter-attacks. The enemy was
apparently willing to let him have
Passchendaele withou sacrificing
men in counter-blows. The British
commander in chief also reported
a successful raid carried out by
a Liverpool regiment near Queant
and taking of a few German pri-
soners. Elsewhere, he said, there
was intermittent hostile ortillerying.

EFFECT MANY IN kENOsHA
Local Federal Officials Declare They
Are Slow to Believe Proposed Deal
ings With Alien Enemies Will Be
Made Applicable to Lake Shore.

More than four hundred Kenosha
people are threatened with an order to
change their residence until after the
war is over. kilograms from New
York today declare that on account of
the activity Of alien enemies at points
along the eastern water front it is ex-
pected that within few days fed
eral order will be issued which will
force all alien enemies to move at least
hundred miles away from the water
lines of the nation. The same message
declares that the order will apply to
the Great Lakes as well as to the ocean.
The attorney general at Washington
declared that no such order had been
issued as yet but admitted that the
federal officials were considering such
an order. United States District At
torney Sawyer at Milwaukee declared
that he was not Of the opinion that
this district would be included in such
an order but he held that it was posi-
bic that such would be the case.
Kenosha has some four hundred
alien enemies living within its borders.
Many of them are old time Germans
who have lived in Kenosha since child
hood. Many of them own their own
homes and have raised their families
in Kenosha. s would prove real
hardship for these people to be ordered
to move away from Kenosha to some
point inland. Most Of the ellen enc
mics in Kenosha are now living here
under permits granted by the United
States district marshal and close tab
is being kept on every one Of the per
mits. When these aliens are found
without permits they are promptly
jailed. There has been absolutely no
complaint against any Of the alien en-
emies who are working under federal
permits in Kenosha.
Local men who are In close touch
with the activities of the federal gov
eminent declined to comment on the
possibility of the order for the removal
of the Germans. 81 should very much
dislike to see such an order said one
of the men. 1T would mean a hard
ship for lot of people who are really
loval to the United States REGARDLESS

individual members of this association
have not met the price fixed by the
agreement. IF this is fact they are
not getting bit of backing from the
association. Go after them just as
hard as you want to. The agreement
is made in good faith and so far as
the association is concerned every man
is expected to live up TO it. The price
of milk supplied to Kenosha should be
just a trifle below the price for the
milk supplied to Chicago and if the
producers are refusing to supply it at
that rate they are not living up to the
agreement made to the officials by the
association. Word of this agreement
has been sent broadcast so that every
member of the association should know
just what it is. Kenosha is entitled
to lower price on its milk supply
the same as Chicago and if Keno
sha is lax in enforcing this agreement
Kenosha must suffer-
At the meeting in Racine the con-
ditions Of the agreement will be plain
~ stated and in addition there will
be discussion of legislation which
will be proposed to the coming special
session of the legislature with a
view of having some state provision
to cover the shifting price of milk
in the state.
1t is expected that three hundred
Kenosha county farmers will go to
Racine to attend the meeting and it is
also expected that every retailer Of
milk in the city will attend.

Washington, Nov. Following
closely the first casualty list in
trench fighting, the navy depart
ment early today made public a
list Of one officer and twenty men
missing from the American patrol
boat Alcedo, Summarized Monday.
Struck squarely by a torpedo, she
sank in four minutes. Of the
ninety-two men aboard, seventy-one
were saved, indicating the great
est GOODNESS by officers and crew
after the torpedo struck. Naval
officers consider it likely that many
of these were killed outright by
the violence of the torpedoes and
that others were stunned or too
badly hurt to receive help.
Whether the trim little former
yacht-the first United States war
ship to be lost in the war-had a
chance to battle for its life or was
struck without warning, viii not
be known until further details of
the disaster are obtained. Accord
ing to reports, nearby vessels be-
gan work of rescue almost imme-
diately after the Alcedo was hit.
AS the survivors came into port,
more complete accounts are ex-
pected. The war zone is fairly
covered by vessels like the Alcedo
patrol boats which in guarding
larger warships and cargo ships
from the submarines daily encount-
er the deadliest danger. That more
of them are not sunk appears mir
aculous despite the constant
watchfulness of their crews. The
Alcedo, formerly a watch owned
by G. W. Childs Drexel, a Phil
adelphia capitalist, was sold to the
government and reconstructed
last spring.

American Field Headquarters,
France, Nov. 7.-One Of the Ameri-,
can soldiers killed in the recent
German trenches raid had his
throat cut. He was overwhelmed
by boches, backed up against the
trench wall and a knife was drawn
across his neck.
The wound was inflicted with a
trench knife-a deadly tool carried
by the fighting men for hand to
hand battling.
All wounded Sammies now in the
base hospital were improving to-
day. They will probably return
to their units, eager for revenge,
when the army surgeons pronounce
them fit for active service.
Artillery fire in the American
manned sector continues unusually
brisk today.
