FOOD COST AND WAGES.
Baltimore American.(

One very pregnant cause of the
high cost of living is not sufficiently
taken into account. This is the de-
mand. out of all proportion to serv-
ices oftimes. of labor for increased
pay. All along the line Of skilled
and unskilled employment the de-
mand is being made and the scarcity
OF labor gives success to the de-
;mand for increases Of wages, So
tiiatjwhile the pure food Law when
passed will tend to lower the cost
OF living where this is brought about
by the r.pacity Of those who handle

HOUSE APPROVES
WAR REVENUE BILL

Washington. With not a single
dissenting voice the house, amid plau-
dts of members and the galleries,
passed the $1,000, OOO, 900 war revenue
authorization measure. One member,
Representative London of New York,
the only Socialist in congress-, voted
present"
Owing to general pairs and alb
sentees only 3S9 votes were recorded,
but Democratic Leader Kitchin and
Republican Leader Mann announced
all of their members would have voted
affirmatively if they had been present.
The formality Of a roll call would
have been dispensed with if several
members who voted against the war
resolution had not insisted on having
the opportunity of recording them
selves in favor of providing money to
carry on hostilities now that the ma
ton is at war.
The bill authorizes $4,000, 900, 900 in
bonds, of which $4,000, 900, 900 will be
lent to entente countries, and the issu-
ance of treasury certificates for ST.
600, 900, 900 ultimately to be met by in
creased taxation.

WILL
FOLLOW TREASON

Washington. ALL persons residing
in the United States, citizens and
aliens, are warned in a proclamation
issued by President Wilson that trea-
sonable acts OF attempts to shield
those committing such acts will be
vigorously prosecuted by the govern
ment.
F%arreach!ng Importance attaches to
the direction of the warning to aliens
and the declaration that resident
aliens as we'll as citizens owe allie
glance to the United States," and,
therefore, are equally subject to the
laws against treason and like crimes.
Not only are conspirators them
selves subject to heavy penalties, but
any one, even a German resident, who
has knowledge of reasonable acts
and fails to notify the authorities, may
be sent to prison for seven years and
fined $4,000 for misprisen Of treason.

TAKE OVER 10000 PRISONERS
Infantry Goes Into Action After Artil.
Iery Preparation and Important 8
Gains Are Made.

London.-French troops operating In
the departm ents of the Aisne and thu
Marine have delivered a violent infan.
try attack against the Germans over
a front of twenty-five miles, made in,.
portant gains Of terrain and captured
more than 10000 prisoners and large
quantities of war material. ~
The battle took place between Sois.
sons and Rheims and over a distance
OF eighteen and one-half miles, from,
scissors to Craonne, the entire Ger
man first line positions fell into the
hands Of General Nivelle's forces. :
East of Craonne a second line Ger
man position south of %Juvincourt and
another position on the outskirts of
Bermericourt running along the Aisne
canal to Louvre and Courcy also were
captured.
The artillery, for several days, had
been Smelling the entire region and,
while British activity along the front
from Lens to st. Quentin and almost
ceased, owing to heavy rainfall, the
French launched their infantry in an
endeavor to break through or press
back the Germans from this point CT
great strategic value.
Artillery Activity Continues.
To the east, in Champagne, violent
artillery activity continues, probably
being the fo 'erunner of an attempt by
the French at a drive against the Ger.
man lines in this no less important
region.
Up to the time the rain storm began
the British captured from the Cor
mans the village of Villeret, south
east of Hargicourt and eight miles
from ST. Quentin, and also had made
additional progress northwest of Lens.
From the fact that the French troops
in Alsace and Lorraine have renewed
their fighting against the Germans,
preceding it with heavy artillery
preparation and delivering infantry
attacks that Melted them good gains
of terrain end resulted in heavy cas-
ualties to the Germans, it would ap-
pear that all along the French front
the moment is approaching. for an in
tensive battle from Belgium to the
Swiss border.
