KaiSer'S Ally
 Enrolled Upon
 Side OfSan1n1y

The kaiser has been baseIy de- serted by his principal ally.
 No longer can the red-handed madman of Europe announce with accustomed egoism and with any degree of accuracy that s"Gott iss nit us" in the Huns hospital bombing and baby-kiling raids or that Gott will lead his brave army to victory over all the liberty loving world.
 For Gott has deserted him.
 Gott-John C. Gott-taken as deserter, yesterday was given the option of going to the penitentiary or of joining the colors. He chor> the latter. and yesterday was in ducted into the American army and now is at Camp Pike in Ar kansas.
 Gott registered in Cochise county and then disappeared, according to the records in the office of the ad- jutant general at the state house. Later he was located at Jasper, Arkansas. where federal officials were notified to hold him for fur ther orders. The orders came short lV sfterward to induct him into the army.
 1t was done yeste-L-". and Gott now is at Camp Pike. which is in Arkansas and a long distance from the kaiser's headduarters and cen ter of communication.

CAUTION IS URGED
 IN RUSSIAN CRISIS
Republican A. p. Leased Wlrel

LONDON, June 2S.-The Westmins- ter Gazette in d long editorial today commenting on the appeal of Alex ander r. Kerensky, former Russian premier, for entente allied assistance in Russia, urges the allies to move very cautiously in anything approach ing intervention.
 We cannot be surprised if the allied governments, and particularly Presi- dent Wilson, desire the ground to be carefully explored first" the newspa- per declares. "A serious mistake in this matter might have the gravest consequences because the Germans may be trusted to exploit to the utmost any opening that is given them. Theiz one opportunity of restoring their lost manpower is through the Russian Bol- sheviki. They will raise the cry that Russia is being threatened by foreign invader and before we give them this pretext we should be very sure that our intervention is desired by the mass of the Russians"

Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

CHICAGO, June 2S.-A definition Of sabotage" as not the destruction of property but putting a limit on efficiency" was given today by J. T. Doren of Tacoma, Washington, che of the 101 I. w. w. defendants on trial for seditious conspiracy. He still was on the stand at adjournment for the day.
 Doren, an I. w. w. lecturer, erected his blackboard before the jury and repeated and explained the lectures he had made, while Federal Judge Landis left the bench and took a seat among the spectators.
 Doren told of watching q carpenter putting in a doorsill and of his em- ployer, real estate man, complain ing of the length of time spent in the task. Not too much to make the house fit to live in,'' the witness said the carpenter answered, whereupon the employer replied:
 Live in nothing. I'm building this house to sell.''

AUTOMOBILE TIRE
 SIZES WILL BE CUT
Republican A. p. Leased Wlre1

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-Immedi ate reduction in the number of types and sizes of automobile tires from 2S7 to 22 has been determined upon by au tomobile tire manufacturers in ac- cordance with recommendations of the conservation division of the war indus tries board. Under the program an noUnced today, by November l, 1920, all all but nine types and sizes will have been discontinued.
 The nine types to remain after No- vember 1, 1920, range in sizes from 30X31a to 40xS, and include standard non skid patterns. The elimination of the so-called non- essential types will be gradual.

fantry for the entire engagement were light. due largely to the fact that the show was over before the enemy was able to organize.
 As a special feature of the program, Australian troops on the left carried out a simulated attack of their own, adding nearly half hundred prison CTS to the bag.
 Morale of Hun Not High
 The morale of the prisoners wa. not high. These men and others cap tured recently expected to get ahead much faster.
 These men have professed to believe that the United States was not going to be able to render much assistance to the allies The helplessness of the United States is being planted thor oughly in the minds of the Germans.
 With the German officers, naturally it is different, for they have no delu- sions on the subject.
 Dry Weather Helps
 During the spring the low-lyine ground here had been little better than a morass, but the warm weather
Arizona republican., 1918-06-29

of recent days dried it out enough to make it feasible for infanty opera tionS.
 The British pushed off at 6 o'clock this morning after a short, sharp bom- bardment, just as the white mists were beginning to arise along the numerous streams which thread their tortuous way about this region. Statements by prisoners show that the enemy had not the slightest expectation of the British taking the initiative at this point. The Germans felt so secure that they were devoting most of their time to a campaign against the cpl demic known locally as the Flanders grippe, which has sent many of them to hospitals.
 The British were owe rthe top and at the enemy before the latter realized their danger. Machine gun posts were stormed and cleaned out with hand grenades and bayonets. Where the Germans were holding a stretch of trench. the attacking troops rushed up with rapid firers and swept the ditches with an intense fire, annihilating the defenders.

MISSION !. ID RUSSIA |S PLAN ]. IF THE PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON, June 2S.--Plans of the American government for aiding Russia in rehabilitating herself which became known today, revealed that the first step contemplated is in- formal assistance through American business and industrial leaders and disposed of widely published reports That a diplomatic or political mis- sion would be the means of carry ing out President Wilson's promise to stand back of Russia.
 The personnel of a group of men who will carry expert advice and ma terial aid is being discussed.
 Police Protection Expected
 Ample police protection is expected but show of military force will be avoided. Officials were reluctant to discuss this phase of the situation, realizing that Germany would seize upon it as a means of distorting the Intentions of the United States.
 Todays news dispatches made no change in the plans already formu- lated. Internal disturbances were thought to accentuate the need of injecting Q steady influence into the situation and officials said they pro posed to go ahead on the lines laid down.
 Reported BolsheViki Fall
 The reported fall of the bolshevilSi government was regarded by some officials as being directly precipitated by the reported assassination of former Czar Nicholas, dispatches for some time have indicated a swing ing of the pendulum of public senti- rnent towards a monarchial form of government. This sentiment has been Increased by the influence of the es- tablished Greek Catholic church and ants regarded the royal family. Grand Duke Nicholas is believed likely to rule with a firm hand, if he is able 70 seize the government.
 Need For Early Action
 The need for early action in Rus sia also has been emphasized in re- cent official dispatches, telling of the activity of Germans in Siberia. After freeing and arming Germans taken prisoner by the Russians in the early part of the war, the Ger man invaders have proceeded to carry out systematically and with Teutonic thoroughness their system of stripping the country of everything valuable, Hs was done in Belgium and northern France. Huge depots were estab- lished for the concentration of grain, ostensibly for the relief of the Rus sians, and then the grain was shipped into Germany. Other foodstuffs and raw materials were appropriated in like manner.

PRESIDENT NAMES
 51 NEW OFFICERS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-President Wilson today sent to the senate the names of eight new major generals and 43 brigadier generals of the national army to fill vacancies now existing in the military service. Most of the men advanced in rank are serving in France and the selections are those of General Pershing. Of ficers in this country were selected by General March, chief of staff, and in both cases the lists show that capabilities of the officer and not his personality govern the promotion.
 General Pershing's list includes two national guard colonels-Cornelius Vanderbilt and John II. Sherbune- to be brigadier generals. The others are all regulars. Following are the nominations:
 To be major generals: Mason M. Patrick, Edward M Lewis, William J. Snow, William R. Smith, Peter E. Traub, William S. Graves, James G. Harbord and Charles F. Summerall.
 In making up his list of major generals, General Pershing showed his estimation of his former chief of staff. Brigadier General James G Harbord recently assigned to con- mand the marine brigade. It was a part of this brigade which figured in the fighting about Chateau Thierry which has brought new honor to the Marine corps.
 Wins Promotion by Work Among the new brigadiers, the selection of Colonel MacArthur chief of the staff for the Rainbow division and formerly press censor of the war department during the Mexican border trouble and the first months of the war, attracted attention. Tho officers record both in the organiza- ton of the Rainbow division, the first national guard force to go over, ant later in the trenches, where he wa. decorated by the French commandel | for gallant service and was wounded | in action, won him his advancement as he was a major of the engineer corps when war was declared.
