Icy Associated Press.)

Austro-German forces are operating
against the Italians along the Taglia-
mento river and the Carnic Alps are
proving serious menace to the Dos.
slDility of General Cadorna holding
ms army in tact until the French and
British can send sufficient aid
The invaders have entered toward
Venetia and are driving their way
across mountains and rivers in the
Pinzano territory. Their last move
ments show a proceeding westward
TO the north in the direction OF the
Italian left wing, while another large
division of the Teutons are maneuy-
ering with the very probable objective
of cutting off the entire right wing OF
CadOrnaS army.
Berlin claims the taking of 6,00C
Italian prisoners and many additional
guns after fOrding the river
The Italians are making every pre-
paration az the rear Of their lines tc
establish stronger refensiye DO
sition and it is improbable that Gen
eral Cadorna will attempt to hold the
Tagliamento line.
The British and French troops con
tinue their raiding operations in
Flanders with considerable success.
Two additional defeats of the OFT
oman forces are recorded by the Brit
ish in Palestine and on the Russian
Black Sea coast

SLAMS won successes again the Turk
in the Black Sea region.
Italy's situation appears increasing
ly grave, with the announcement thai
the Austro-Germans have crossed thu
Tagliamento river, west Of which
General Cadorna established a new
line after his retreat
The crossing is apparently not ye'
in sufficient force to compel Genera
CadOrna TO decide upon an abandon
ment of the Tagliamento line, but
doubtless the Teutons will make the
most of the opening to debaucl
against the Italians north and south
Ol lHe point WncH Il lOOLlIlS Is gained
That this process already is under
way is indicated by the Rome report
of increasing Teuton pressure against
the Italian left wing where the cross
ing was effected
The point selected for the cross
ing near PinZano, about forty miles
from the river mouth and seventeen
miles northwest of Udine The banks
here rise preciptately and the river
is narrow.
If General Cadorna has decided to
abandon the Tagliamento line, which
is by no means certain, and intends
to fight more checking actions, the
next natural stand will be at the Ii
venca, ten to fifteen miles farther
back, or finally at the Piava, an addi
tionl ten miles frther back.
The Entente council at Rome is
discussing the admittedly grave sit
uation. ,.

new STUDEbAKER
Arrival of 1918 Models,
Which Embody Every
Known Principle That
Goes to Make Efficiency.

Mr.. l.. II. Barton, manager of the
b.. Il. & +. Auto Co. announces the
arrival very shortly of the 1918 mod
els of the Studebaker cars. The add
cd improvements of the 1918 series
will cause many a would-be automo-
bile purchaser to hesitate and take
fun note of the immense values that
the new Studebaker car will have in
its makeup before going any further
in his desire to make comparisons.
The present automobile situation
when 1t comes to the efficiency Of the
car for a certain price. has put every
car upon an even basis, but the added
improvements which are in the form
of patents which stand for greater
comfort. economy of operation, greater
strength and durability. are features
which only the most competent engi-
ncers are able to add.
The new Studebaker series embodies
every known principle and device
which goes to make a car efficient ir
every sense of the term. Tho grea
principle of motordom at the present
time is economy of operation and dur
ability of machinery. The two sub.
jects are the most vital question.

new FORD TRUCK
PLACED ON SALE
Long Wheel Base the Strik-
ing Feature Of New Ma
chine Turned Out at De-
troit; Newcomer Model T.

The long awaited Ford truck. manu-
featured by the Ford Motor company,
il at last commercial reality. with
shipments Of parts being made to the
various assembling plants throughout
the country, and production at the
home plant reaching considerable
proportions.
At first glance it is bit difficult for
the casual observer to distinguish be-
tween the Ford 1-ton truck and the
familiar touring car and runabout
model. Indeed, the newcomer is known
as Model r, and the same as
the firmly esta blished passenger car,
and upon examination proves to be a
neat combination of the time tried
Ford chassis and worm driven truck
unit capable of carrying one ton.
From the universal joint forward the
chassis of the truck is the same as
the passenger car, with the compact.
cleancut engine and planetary gear
set. It Is therefore back of this that
interest centers. and here it is found
that a complete change has been
wrought, with the exception of the
semi. elliptical transverse rear spring.
Even this has been made materially
heavier, to care for the increased
burden, and the suspension has been
strengthened. The side members have
been made heavier and heightened to
accommodate the new Wheelbase,
which is 124 inches-24 inches longer
than the passenger car.
Reversing the usual order Of proceed
ure and getting down to the new fea
lures of the truck, it is found that tho
final drive Is by direct shaft from
the center of the chassis to the real
axle, only one universal joint being
necessary, and this at the forward
end. A ball and socket arrangement
in this universal joint reduces shocks
and strains occasioned by uneven
roads. The drive shaft which operate:

the rear axle Is enclosed in a tubular
