JAPAN PLEDGES
SUPPORT TO j. s.
WILL FIGHT SHOULDER TO
A CERTAIN VICTORY.
VIscount lshii m FeIicitous Address on
Floor of the Senate Pledges Sup
port of His Nation in War
For World Freedom.

Washlngton.-A message of fellow
ship and good will from Japan was
delivered to the senate on August 30
| by Ylscount Ishii, ambassador on spe-
cial mission, with an assurance that
Japan is in the war to stay and to
fight shoulder TO shoulder with Amer
lea TO a certain victory.
In a tribute to Thomas Jefferson
and the American ideal of life, Wis
count Ishii told the senator's that the
japanese ideal of national life, in its
final analysis, was not so very far re-
moved from theirs.
I'VE conceive of our nation as a
vast family" he said, ''held together
not by arbitrary force Of armed men,
but by the force of natural develop
ment."
The ambassador and other members
Of the mission were received on the
floor of the senate with formal cere-
mony by Senator Salisbury, president
pro TEN, in the absence of Vice Presi
dent Marshall. His address, read in
English, frequently was interrupted by
hearty applause from senators and
spectators.

This becume known Friday in con

ing are at the front, fully five times

gathered at the American base.
These tentative figures obtained Fri

during the winter months when sub
marines are least effective.
Second-That the conseript army
will not even start abroad until late

the Attacking Teutons.

London.-Along the whole 9O-mllt
front of the new Italian drive, two
weeks old on Sunday, the Austrians
launched some of the fiercest thrusts
of the war. Everywhere they were
beaten off. Not foot of ground was
regained by them. Moreover, the
Italians plowed ahead appreciably in
some sectors, taking additional hun
dreds Of prisoners and adding to their
huge booty.
Monte San Gabrielle, bathed in the
Italian fire and almost surrounded, is
not expected to hold out much longer.
Slowly the last remaining defense
works of this great strategic height
are crumbling to bits.
The Germans are knocking virtual
ly at the gates of Riga, with the Rus
SLAMS apparently unable to Withstand
their advance.
The great Baltic port, head OF the
railway running to Petrograd, is beset
on three sides by the enemy-on the
west in the Lake Babit region, on the
southwest near Mitau and on the
southeast along the eastern bank of
the Dvina river, scant fifteen miles
distant from the city.
While the capture of Riga would
be of great strategic value to the Ger
mans in controlling the entrance to
the Gulf of Finland, at the head of
which stands Petrograd, it would not
place the capital in jeo-
Qardy.
