Liberty Loan Drive
Begins April IL
Every School House in County VIII Be
Visited by Speakers on That Date
Movement Heartily Endorsed

BOISE, March 26.-The message of
the third liberty loan-its meaning,
purposes and operations-is to be
carried to rural residents of Idaho and
the nation through approximately 1907
900 school house meetings on the night
of April 12-six days after the official
opening of the drive-Chairman D. w.
Davis, of the state committee in charge
of the drive, has been notified. 1t
will be the first time in history that
all rural school houses will have been
given over on the same night to
national government meeting.
A letter sent by Secretary McAdoo
to all rural school directors in the ma
ton, asking them to cooperate with
their local liberty loan organization
in arranging liberty loan rallies for
that night, has produced a flood OF
favorable responses Not single
school official has declined to assist
in making the plan a success.
Local liberty loan committees will
cooperate with the school officials in
arranging the meetings. Speakers
who understand all of the details con-
corning the loan campaign will be pro-
vided School house bell will be
rung, bonfires will be lighted, In the
school house yards, patriotic songs
will be sung, and other devices used
to enliven the meetings. Explanatory
literature will be distributed, AMI the
hope of the committees is that the
meetings will result in a thorough un-
derstanding of the vital features of the
loan by all who attend.
Among the persons who have ac-
cepted invitations to campaign in be-
half of the third liberty loan were
William Jennings Bryan, former sec
rotary of state; DR.. L. S. Rowe, as
sistant secretary of the treasury; Gay
lord NJ Saltzgaber, United States COM
missioner of pensions; Charlie Chap
lin and William S. Hart, motion pic
ture stars; Miss Katherine Synon and
Mrs. Halle Linn Hill, of the woman's
liberty loan committees and Mrs Cora
c. Lewis, of Kinsley, Kansas, who for
merly was a member of the Kansas
state board of administration of pub
lie schools.

May Need Army at
Home Says Senator
New of Indiana, Takes Dark View OF
Situation in Speech in the Senate on
Universal Training

WASHINGTON, March 25.-Warning
the nation that 1--WE may need our
army at home in the not distant flu
ture,' Senator Harry New of Indiana
this afternoon launched his fight for
universal military service as a perma-
nent national institution.
Senator New proposed an amend
ment to the pending draft legislation
to begin the military training of all
young men when they reach the age of
10 years. They would not be made
subject to military service until they
reached 81 years. His amendment, 1t
was pointed out, would mean the
equivalent of permanent universal ser
vice.
The measure before the senate was
the war department resolution provid-
ing for the drafting Of young men who
have reached the age of 81 years since
June 5, last, registration day.
There are some who contend" Sen
ator New said, that is is useless TO
provide such an army at this time for
the reason that we have not the ships
to transport them beyond the sea,
even though we might have the men.
well I have known men who might
be classified as conservative who have
INDUCED a more violent assumption
than that we may need our army at
home in the not distant future
"As to that, it seems not unlikely
that much depends upon the strength
of our present allies"
Senator News amendment will bring
out the long awaited test of the
strength of universal military service
sentiment in congress. The vote was
being watched with much interest.
Senator Thomas Of Colorado, here
tofore opposed to universal training,
declared himself in favor of it now.
81 believe that 1t has become a ne
cessity to preserve the Anglo-Saxon
race" said Senator Thomas.
Senator Ashurst of Arizona and Sen
ator Myers of Montana, both strong
administration supporters, announced
themselves in favor of the measure

State Senator S. p Atherton, Twin
Falls county farmer. who has resided
near Bull. was in Meridian for few
hours recently. He is prominently
spoken of for the Republican nomina-
ton for governor. Senator Anterior
represented his county in the last ses-
sion of the legislature, and made
good reputation as champion of the
measures in which the farmers were
specially interested. The best measure
passed by the legislature was one fix
ing the price of all commodities the
farmers have to sell at the same fig
ure the same day all oyer the state,

GREAT ATTACK
IN ITALY IS
EXPECTED SOON
AUSTRIANS MASSING VAST
FORCES FOR AN OFTEN
SIVE
VIII Begin When the
Weather Permits
Enemy Secures Great Reinforce
ments of Artillery-Believed
That Move Is Timed to Follow
the Western Drive.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-A form
liable enemy offensive will be launch
ed on the Italian front as soon as nat
ural conditions allow, says an official
dispatch from Rome this afternoon.
The prediction is based on the obser-
walton made by the Italian deputy
Bevione, who has just returned from
the front He reported that the Aus
trian divisions continue to arrive with
out interruption and are taking posi-
tons according to a plan of which
it now is possible to determine the
scheme"
The enemy artillery is receiving
daily reinforcements while new avia-
ton and munitions depots are observ-
ed to be under construction Dis
patches received in Rome from Berne
and relayed to Washington, say that
the opinion prevailed in military cir
cles that the offensive will break with
great violence on the Franco English
front, followed by an immediate Aus
tro-German drive on the Italian front.
Germany has sent fresh contingents
of machine gunners to the Italian
front, together with several aerial
squadrons. The dispatches say that
reports from Innsbruck are to the eff
feet that General Boroevic and Gener-
al Conrad have returned to headquar-
ters of tn supreme command after an
inspection of the TrentinO positions.
Regarding the participation of Aus
tria on the English front the
Italian belief is that Austrians are
chiefly represented by artillery. Num-
erous batteries Of big calibre guns are
being transferred from the Russian
front to the Belgian front.
The official Italian dispatches this
afternoon say that Italian newspapers,
without exception, express themselves
in favor of Japanese Intervention, be-
| lieving that the sane Russian element
will favor the action of Japan in de-
tense of their country. The news
papers urge the government to press
the other allies to prompt solution
of this question.

"a counter attack by British cavalry
was repulsed
1.-THE crown prince forced a passage
of the Somme south of Ham and seal
ed heights in that district.
1--WE stormed Nesle also positions
west of the .Crozeat canal.
English, French and American
troops were thrown back through

1--WE captured Guiscard and Chauny
Our booty now includes $4,000
prisoners, 600 guns and thousands of
machine guns.
1--WE again bombarded Paris with
long range guns"
In the official report issued by the
British war office at noon it was
stated that German attacks north Of
Baupaume on Sunday afternoon and
night had been repulsed, but that
south of Baupaume the assaults were
renewed this morning. This indicates
that Baupaume was still in British
hands, although the Germans claimed
to have taken it during the night
Nesle, which the Germans said they
had stormed, lies II miles west of
Ham, and nine miles south of Per-
onne. 1t is west of the Somme river.
Guiscard lies on the Noyon-Ham
road, about half way between the two
towns.
The point where it is claimed the
German crown prince advanced is
about II or 10 miles from the point
where the British forced the Germans
back to the bank of the stream. If the
German claim as to prisoners is cor
rect, it shows that they have captured
$4,000 men since their previous re-
port of 10000 prisoners was given out.
The French cities of Baupaume, Per-
onne and st. Quentin, near which the
, German and allied armies are now
locked in life and death struggle,
were the scenes of historic battles be-
tween the French and Prussians in the
war of 1870-71. At Baupaume the
French were defeated by a German
army on January 3, 1871. Sixteen
days later great battle was fought
at st. Quentin, when the Germans I'M

full. Peronne was the scene of heavy

(Baupaume lies 10 miles north OF
Peronne and about 10 miles west of

the British defenses of the city began
on Sunday. The Germans had extend
ed their lines almost to the eastern
outskirts of Baupaume, so that the
