ASK ORGANIZATIONS
TO HONOR PLEDGES
Red Cross Wants Reserved
Hours Used.

Officials In charge of the Red Cross
work rooms have filed request that
organizations having hours for work
reserved shall feel more definitely un-
DER obligation to use those hours.
Many of the clubs and societies of the
city have reserved certain afternoons
or evenings of each week for their con :
certed work at the Red Cross rooms.
BY 50 doing. they have discouraged in
dividuals from going to the rooms to
work and now there seems to be a
slackening of interest on the part of
the club members
The need is just as great. probably
greater. at the present time for the
surgical dressings and hospital gar
ments that may be made at the Red
Cross rooms and sent to soldiers over
seas or in environments in America.

which bodies have been found done

evidence has been strong enough to run
down the perpetrators of she crime the
murderers have proven to be a low

the slums of the cities and live by

possible theory based on the assump-
ton that the murderer of Cox was
hired by someone anxious to get rid of
the man.
Cox's checkered life of the past few
years and the legal tangle into which
he was thrown "a few days before his
murder. is sufficient to furnish many
reasons why someone would desire his
death.
Crime Done by Stranger?
But evidently the murder was not
done by Cox's real enemy.
The carefully tied knots in the rope
around the body; the blow on the most
vital part of the head and the surgng
waters of the Mssoula river as an
unmarked grave all bear evidence Of
the professional manner in which the
murder was carried out.
Walking home across the lone flat
near the Van Buren, street bridge on
that cold Sunday night in January, Cox
was assailed from behind at a moment
when detection was almost impossible.

the fastening of the huge rock. Then

eral Pershing's report that both sides

eral Pershing's report that both sides
were entrenching.
Some observers here were inclined
to look still for another phase of the
German effort TO develop on some 9TH
err sector of the line where important
strategic results might be obtained by
IA quick assault They studied the line
from the Picardy battle area, north to
the coast in an effort to select a posi-
bic point for such supplemental
movmeent.
II was argued that thus far there had
been little to indicate that the Brit
ish lines to the north had been thinned
out to any extent TO provide reserves
for the repulse OF the drive. From this
it was deducted that General Haig an
ticipated a possible blow at part Of
this front not heretofore assailed and
was holding his men to meet such an
emergency.
Other observers inclined to the opin-
ion that a blow at the Italian lines by
the Austrians. reinforced by the divi-
sions released from the eastern front
with the collapse of Russia, was the
probable point for extension OF the
ficials here shared this view and pic
tured from their Information the vir-
tual certainty. they said. of a double
assault on their lines in the near flu
ture.
1t is known that military advices re-
ceived here tend to bear out the sug
gestion that the Austrians are gather
ing for an attack, That information is
also in the hands of the inter- allied
supreme war council at Versailles,
however, and the plans of General Foch
without doubt take this into consider
alton.
Many officers believe that the drive
in Picardy has already cost the Ger
mans "a greater wastage of reserves
than they could have been prepared to
meet without drawing on every avail
able source OF man power. For that
reason they doubt that II blow at the
British lines to the north is to bc oN-
pccted. All Germany's power. they
feel. is committed to the effort in
Picardy and the holding of the re-
mainder of the line. which they dare
not weaken too extensively for fear Of
"A counter assault by the French or
British.
Attack May Come Soon.
One the face of the official reports
on the progress Of the battle, officers
said IL was difficult To see why counter

that many factors entered into the Sc
