SENDING TROOPS
FAST TO FRANCE
Going in Greater Numbers Than
Expected and Tanks for
Pershing Building Here.
BAKER ISSUES STATEMENT
War Department Plans Fit Ship
Schedules and Movement Grows
Weekly-lmportant Inference
Is Possible.

Washington.-The United States
is dispatching troops to Europe at a
much faster rate than was deemed
possible when TIE program for get
ting the flag on the firing line III
France originally was drawn up.
There are more troops now in Europe
than War Department officials had
calculated last summer; also the rate
at which troops are now being sent
overseas is constantly being acceler-
ated instead of diminished despite
the demands which the ~transporta-
ton of supplies for each additional
unit landed in France make on the
available ship tonnage.
The first authoritative statement
so far made concerning progress
made in sending troops to Europe has
just been made by Secretary Baker.
In response to a question he author
lied the statement that "there are
more American troops now actually
in Europe than we expected to have
there at this time"
While no details were given by Mr..
Baker for military reasons, he made
it clear that differences of Importance
might be drawn from the single state
ment he authorized.
There have been persistent reports
that shipping and transportation diff
ficVlties were intervening to check
the flow of re-enforcements to Gen
eral Pershing's original force, so that
Americas active participation in the
war in a military sense was being de-
layed.
1t was known that the War De-
partment had planned to keep up a
steady flow of troops and had made
advance calculations which would as
sure a representative American force
in France before next spring. Opin-
ion, however, had become widespread
that this plan, like others, had not
survived the acid test of practical
execution.
1t is stated now that the increase
in General Pershing's army will be
on an a~ccelerating basis, with added
transportation facilities helping ma.
d
The plan for transporting troops
has been worked out in advance in
conjunction with the transportation
problem so that the government
knows just how many ships will b1
available each week and makes i'll
plans to suit this schedule.
1t also became known that thI
United States has made progress il
constructing tanks similar to those
used so effectively by General Byng
in his surprise attack near Cambria.
Several of these huge American
tanks, which embody all the features
of the most up to date British design,
will be ready for tests in the near
future.

PITH OF THE
WAR NEWS

Field Marshal Haig announced the
capture by General Byng of Bourbon
village, which success virtually
opens the road to Cambria, railway
base of the broken Hindenburu line.
The italians are still holding the Teu-
tonic armies on the Piave line, and
Venetian soldiers are fighting like
tigers to save their loved city.
Leon Trotzky, BoIshevik foreign min
ister, notified the neutral govern
ments of Russia's moves for an i'm
mediate peace.
Rear Admiral Robert S. Peary believes
that German submarines will soon
attack American ports.
A German enveIoping attack upon the
Italians, and of many hours dura-
ton, ended in nothing but severe
losses for the invaders.
While the British troops were on
solidatine the positions won by them
in their victorious drive toward
Sambrai considerable fighting was
done in many sectors, the Germans
endeavoring in vain to drive out
the men WHOSE thrust placed them
at the door of the town. The Ger
mans are fighting furiously to
re-sin lost terrain. but without
avail.

WAGE DEMANDS UP TO WILSON
r. r. BROTAERHoODS TO ACCEPT
SOLUTION HE MAY SUGGEST.
Indications Are Some Increase Will Be
Granted Under Guidance of
President.

Observation-Disclosures the lead
of the railroads, the heads of the rail-
road ~brotherhoods placed their desti-
mics in the hands of President Will
son. The strike that had been de-
clared imminent is now practically
beyond possibility.
In addition it was agreed that the
demands made by the workers in the
brotherhoods will be discussed and
adjusted.
TITO be exact, the entire situation
-m both sides is to all intents en-
NsSely in the keeping of the President.
Both the railroads and the brother
hoods heads have imposed upon him
the solution of the difficulty.
The agreement was reached at a
conference at the White House be-
tween the President and the four
brotherhood chiefs. Warren S. Stone
of the locomotive engineers, w. G..
Lee of the railway trainmen, w. S.
Carter of the locomotive firemen and
enginemen and A. B. Garretson of the
Order of Railway Conductors saw the
President. Judge w. L. Chambers
and Judge Martin A. Knapp of the
United States Board of Mediation and
Cancellation were present.
AS stated, the brotherhood heads
agreed to allow the President to
guide their bark. 1t is understood
that they gave him virtual control of
their fortunes for the entire war.
Mr.. Wilson has a strong hold upon
the brotherhood heads. Last year
when great pressure was exerted to
make them abandon their demands it
was he who aided them. For this
reason he was in a position to appeal
to their patriotism; also he had con-
WINGED them last veal of fair treat
ment at his hands.
From the tenor of the statement ii
is indicated that the men will not en-
tirely stop efforts for higher wages
and it is also indicated that some in
crease will be granted. This will, il
is believed, be settled by the Presi-
dent with the aid of the Board OF
Mediation and Cancellation.
Up to this time the brotherhoods
have never looked with favor upon
mediation by the board. But now
that they have presidential assurance
that their rights will be carefully
safeguarded it is said they will dror
their opposition.

call an appeal to the fair mindel people Of the
State" against the influence of orgarizations
consisting of patriotic Americans. They in8in-
uate that others have a right to organize for
protection of home and country but themselves.
They refer to the actions OF patriotic 0rganiza-
tons as dark lantern caucusses, underhand
methods of selecting governors, members Of the
legislature" etc They infer that religious tests
are expected of any and all candidatei for public
office in the future. 1t is more than likely that
they are DESTROYS of poisoning the minds of the
uni formed voters this que ton by their
refe ence to religious tests" dark lantern eau
cuss ideas, etc.
Therefore, it is gour duty to spread this infor-
nation broadcast in your neghborhood and
