The flag and pole were erect.

The Flag Pole was made. do
mated, and erected by the en-
ployees of the Drilling Deyelop-
NEST company on their own time
as a service to the Flag, to- the
country, and as an appreciation
OF the service of co-workers
throughout the world, and in our
army, in our navy and our gov
ernment, in order that Democ.
racy may live.
This Flag was donated by the
Drilling Development company
IN the same spirit shown by the
employees. to the same service
and in the hope that as Old
Glory floats above us all it will
be an inspiration to each of us to
use our best endeavor and great
est effort, to promote our indi-
yidual work in harmony, cooper
alton and fullest understanding,
so that the entire work may be
utilized to its greatest good for
the service of this country.
1t is this inspiring service that
promotes the close harmony
among all men of this Country.
These times are full of many
sacrifices. Our Government is in
crying need of metals and not
among the least of these metals
needed is gold. Because of the
scarcity of materials, labor and
supplies being hard to get at all
times sufficient for the work as
it progresses, we must all of us
use our entire endeavor to make
the greatest use of our time, our
work, our supplies to accomplish
the greatest good in order to
back our Government in it's trial
and fight. 1t is the desire of this
company to help supply the
4 z,1s-
possible moment from patriot
ic standpoint, and.
Therefore, this Flag pole and
the work of erection are dedicat-
ed in so far as it is possible for
each of US to the service of our
Government, and to promote the
general welfare of this con,mun-
ity as a part of the whole.

Saxon Leader Says
Peace Will "Saue"
Kultur of Germans

AMSTERDAM, Sept 2O.-In speaking
at banquet given by the Town Council
or Lelpzlc in honor of Swiss guests,
Count Won Nitzthum dEckstadt. the
Saxon Foreign Minister, spoke Of the
German peace aspirations as follows:
The reason for our readiness for
peace is not consciousness of weak
ness but a sober recognition of the fact
that endless prolongaton of the war
must lead to collapse of European kul-
tur. No pan German politician, let alone
any German statesman, has ever re-
vealed in any speech such wild aims
as to destruction as the official leaders
of our enemies have done since the out
break OF the war, and are doing to day.
wv G know this paroXySm of hate is
not a sign of real strength, but only
designed to deceive neutrals and kim
die the exhausted war passion of their
own countries.
when, however, for the same pur-
pose, an American street rabble mur-
ders before the eyes of the authorities
and with terrible tortures, peaceful
Germans and GermanAmericans in the
United States. and their murderers are
acquitted in American courts, we have
the right to characterize as hypocriti-
cal all moralizing interference by that
country in our internal affairs
German order should be able to

wild conquerors. The government has

"Frankfurtcr Zeitung" announces thar
German Colonial Minister Solf has left
Sofia for Bucharest, instead OF return

planned. 1t was intimated that the
Minister of the Colonies, who has takcr
an increasingly prominent part in Ger
man politics during the last few
months, is in training for the Chancel-
lorship, to succeed Count Won Hertling.
Solf, following the former German
Foreign Minister, was one or the FIRST
of the German statesmen TO declare IN
favor of peace of understanding, but
while it drove others from office, the
present German government, since the
succession of defeats suffered by the
German armies in ,Nc West, has c--
poused the doctrine, and Count Won
Hcrtling himself is now one of its most
ardent advocates
There have been many rumors of the
impending retirement of Won Ilcrting,

age and physical condition make his
position most difficult. and the German
press is discussing the probable re-
tiHement Of the Chancellor. complain

LONDON, Sept. 20. - The achieve
ments of the British air forces in the
last week have been among the most
remarkable of the war. From infor-
nation supplied by the Air Ministry,
The Associated Press has learned that
sixty tons Of bombs were dropped on
German territory in five days by
British machines. This exceeds the
record for any previous fortnight
These long-dista tance raids have been

Daimler works in Stuttgart. the rail

structiVe effect is shown by photo

Aerial assaults over the battle area
have been numerous. Acting in con,
junction with the Franco American
offensive thrty-(vc separate raids
were made between September 13 and
16 against important enemy ardromes
and vital railway functions. Thirteen
OF them were against the MetZ-Sa ablons
railroad.
Altogether British airmcn have
dropped 120 tons of bombs upon the
Western battlefront in the course Of
a week, exclusive of the explosives
dropped in Germany. Nineteen tons
were dropped on bridges, Ostend and
other German coastal defences in air
fighting, in which seventeen enemy
machines were destroyed and nine dis

lost. The number of German machines
