WAR SUMMARY

A lull has fallen on the battle
fields of France.
The Vesle river has flooded its
banks, making mOrasses of the
gOund over which our victorious
troops must pass in their endcavOr
to establish contact with the ene-
my and bring up their supplies.
The Germans, thus enabled TO
gather themselves into greater re-
sisting power, have nOticeably stiff
fened and the Allies have for the
time being partically rested after
the c0nquests of the past ten days.
The Huns, from some secret
place, have resumed the long range
bOmbardment of Paris.
The American troops have made
new page in history by their close
fighting before Fismes on Sunday,
when that base was captured from
the Germans. The fighting ranks
as the most bitter seen during the
war. When the Prussian Guards
met the Yankees they were bayO-
neted and clubbcd to death at their
machine gun nests, and il is said
that they neither asked nor gave
quarter.
The British forces have not been
idle i'm the Flanders sector. Prison
ers were captured in raids south
east of Arras.
The Germans have been lombard
in gthe British between HaZebrOuck
and Ypres.

FOURTH |. |. DRIVE
BEGINS OCTOBER

At a recent conference of the vari
Gus county chairmen with state eX-
ecutives in Los Angeles it was the
consensus of opinion that the success
of the fall campaign depended large
ly on more efficient organization than
that obtaining in previous drives.
Complete tabulation of information
on the public will be a paramount
feature with the Imperial county COM
mittee. The card system now in use
will be revised and will indicate the
employment, income, amount pledged
and paid on previous Red Cross, Y.
NJ c. A. Thrift Stamp and Liberty
Loan subscriptions.
Imperial county subscribed 159 per
cent to the quota assigned for the
Third Liberty loan, which ranks her
third in the State of California and
fifth in the number of individual sub
scribers. The local committee hope
to surpass this record in the coming
drive and are planning to use a lib
eral amount of newspaper display
space. The state committees repre-
senting the Twelfth Federal Reserve
district have already passed a reso-
luton asking the federal government
for an advertising appropriation,
which will do nwDV with the 1Udi-
tional work of soliciting merchants and
individuals, and at the same time have
! the most forceful means of reaching
the public.
