German Morale Deterierates.

German Morale Deteriorates.
Numerous indications have been
found. according to reports from the
| Flanders front. that the German morale
! in this sector had notably sdeteriorated
under the crushing blows of the Brit
ish and their overwhelming artillery
superiority. Lack of the former vigor
in the German counter attacks and their
comparative infrequency are cited as
corroborative of this.
The theory is thus suggested that de
spite the unfavorable weather condi-
tons. Field Marshal Haig decided to hit
the Germans another ha"I blow while
they still We're staggering from the ef-
fects of their defeat last week, and thus
shake still further their already pre-
carious hold on western Belgium, pos

giving the British dominating positions
of great strategic importance. The
wedge in the German line has been
driven SO deep that with the high
ground lost, their positions has been
made most unfavorable. and another
strategic retreat" has been predicted.
Recent dispatches from the British
front. however, told of heavy rains and
deep mud, conditions under which. ordi.
nariiy. u renewal OF the offensive would
not be expected. The decision of the
British staff to return 10 the attack
so quickly may indicate a purpose to
force a decision before cold weather
sets I'm. or before the Germans have
recovered from the last blow. which ap-
peared to have partly demoralized them.

English and French Hosts Give kaiser's
Commander No Rest.
Wy the Associated Pres.,l.


Without regaid to highly unfavolable
weather conditions prevailing and in a
surprisingly short time after the sue
cessful British thrust of last week, the
British and French forces in Belgium
have launched another heavy attack
ion the. German lines.
The blow fell early today east and
northeast of Ypres. where Crown
Prince Rupprecht's lines had already
been dangerously bent back by the pre-
vious British thrusts.
The British commander early reported
satisfactory progress on all parts Of the
front of the attack, which he announced

Considerable force OF French troops
took part in the beginning of the FlaD-

COUNTRY is WASTE
Associated Press Correspondent Gives
Graphic Description Of Once Beautiful
Ypres Section, Now Torn md Desolats
Waste As Result Of Shell Fire.


British front In France and Belgium.
Oct. s.--A prosperous farming country
before the war. the region OF beautiful
Ypres now Is a desolate waste Of large
and deep shell craters. II has bean the
scene OF much bitter and sanguinary
fighting and the artillery lire has done
its work. t. tl
Few sectors OF the western front have
been laid waste as has this one. Farm,
buildings and villages have been swept
away by the shells. Only a few pieces
of wall mark spots where buildings
once stood. Grass and other green things
have disappeared In the turning up OF
the earth by the innumerabIe exploding
shells.
Recalls Battle Of Somme.
From Ypres out across the West
hoeke bridge and over the site Of what
once was Zonnebeke, from which the
Germans were pushed last Thursday. the
scene recalls the days OF the battle OF
the Somme. The unprecedented havoc
wrought on the Somme front hardly
surpassed that which exists along the
Ypres front.
More striking than all the rest were
the scenes of death on every hand. Ger
man dead lay in great numbers over
the ground which had not yet been
cleared. At many places. groups OF
Germans had been killed as they fought
together, and they rested as they fell.
Shell holes at some places were choked
with bodies.
The village of Zonnebeke is but a
.as,
of the big church and in a very few
places there are marks of other public
buildings, but the village as a whole
has disappeared. The railway station
of the Ypres-Roulers line, where for
days the British and Germans battled
fiercely at close quarters. Is gone and
there remains only a small concrete re-
doubt, about which the Germans made
their last stand.
Railroad Is Wrecked
The Ypres-Roulers railway, which for
so long was under British gunfire. and
is now being hammered by the Ger
mans. is nothing but a broken mound Of
earth. The rails have been twisted into
knots and thrown here and there.
All the highways here and on other
parts of the battlefield have been dam
aged severely. A thousand yards in
front of Zonnebeke was Broodseinde
bridge and the village with its famous
crossroads, where many Germans were
killed recently by the British artillery
fire. The British line is ON the crest of
this ridge on the eastern side.
The German redoubts and pillars in
the Zonnebeke region mostly had been
by shell fire also. Many Of
them put up stout resistance. There was
one great concrete and steel redoubt
which had withstood the terrific fire to
which il had been subjected. Its de-
tenders had been driven out by the in
fantryein pitched battle. The redoubt
was so yards long and about forty yards
wide. The walls. which were Of con-
crete reinforced with steel rails, were
about five feet thick, The room was
made of sheet steel. The. building con-
tanned six large rooms which would hold
several hundred men. ., .s.gs ~

MILLER'S MAGAZINE,
ADMITS VIOLATION

The S0-cent cost for manufacturing,
exclusive Of interest on investment, is
undoubtedly too high for the large mill.
Even 70 cents might be an exaggera-
ton for many of the mills: A large
Twin City miller recently stated among
friends that his cost this last summer
was 40 cents per barrel output. The
mixture going into the mills is prob
ably costing less than $3.50 per barrel
and the larger mills, with the latest
machinery, get a higher ratio Of flour.
Also the prices Of mill feed and other
by-products have been going up rather
than down. Furthermore the milling
in-tTansit privilege gives these millers
at least 40 cents on every barrel Of
flour shipped to the outside market.
In fact, no one, not even the millers,
The nonpartisan leader., 1917-11-08

seriously denies the illegal excess prof
it's. The Weekly Northwestern Miller
said in it's October II, (1917) issue:
"More recent instructions from
that quarter indicate, however,
that some of the departures from
the profit limitation which milIers
have permitted themselves to make
are not within the spirit of the
law"
Another proof is the recent cuts in
flour prices. Wheat prices have not
changed since September /, and these
reductions must consequently have
been made from previous excessive
prices. Even now, of course, flour
prices are above what they ought to
be. To conform to the law the millers
must not only reach the proper basis
at once but they must use the wrong
fully accumulated profits to reduce
prices below this basis for consider
able period in the immediate future.
While admitting these excess prof
its, the millers have alibis which the
Kept Press serves up to mold the pub
lie opinion in their favor. Following
are some of their excuses and the
answers to them:
I. I'VE had to use up the old
high priced wheat" On September

mills produced 366,965 barrels.

wheat crop is little larger this
year than last, the operating ratios
will be at least as high. They will
