AMERICANS SENT ID FRONT IN RUSH, NOW
 OCCUPYING TRENCH
Republican A. p. Leased WireJ

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN Wednesday, March 6.-The American troops which have taken up their position on the Lorraine front were billeted in towns back of the lines when they suddenly received orders to move to the front. They were trans ported in motor trucks over .roads an inch deep in dust. Streams of cannons, trucks and motorcycles along the roads raised clouds of dust which stuck to the men and made their clothes, faces and equipment grey by the time they had reached the towns close to the fir ing line, from which they marched to their position during the night.
 They found themselves in a section Of Lorraine where the ground rose in slight grades. In some cases the en- emy lines were half a mile away. AL though this was the first time the Americans had been in the trenches, the units, from various parts of the United States quickly adapted them selves to their new surroundings. Luckily, the weather was fine the first few days, but for some time past until today snow and rain have continuously fallen in this sector, as it has in the American positions northwest of Foul.
 Due to the fact that the ground is fairly high, the trenches are not con- tlnuOus because that is unnecessary and they have remained fairly dry. The American patrols have been operating nightly in conjunction with the French and have worked between the lines with the greatest freedom. The ar tillery has been only intermittently ec- tive, but usually a few shells are ex- changed every hour.

yield to Germany large wheat. petro leum and salt concessions. It is un- derstood that Germany will have control of the Rumanian railways for a period of fifteen years and will have possession of the four principal fortified passes through the Car pathians. All German goods are to enter Rumania free of duty, while all Rumanian goods will go into Ger many under the old tariff, with the exception of certain reductions.
 Crown Council Gives Up
 Germany served her final ultimatum on Rumania yesterday. giving the little kingdom only A hours in which to make a final decision. A crown council was held and it was decided that Rumania, completely isolated and without outside sup port, would have to bow to the force of circumstances and take a course from which there appeared to be no escape.
 Former Premier Bratiano, who at tended the meeting. declared that no nation could accept terms so humili- ating. King Ferdinand asked him if he would assume his old position at the head of the cabinet and accept the responsibility for refusing Ger many's terms. Bratiano replied he could not undertake individually to bear such a burden.

WAR FINANCE BOARD
 MEASURE PASSED BY
 SENATE AS CHANGED
Republican A. p. Leased wire1

WASHINGTON, March 7.-The ad- ministration bill to create a war fi- nance corporation with a fund of $4,- 500,000,000 to aid war industry, was passed by the senate late today and now goes to the house.
 Opposition to the measure dwindled after various important amendments had been made in the original draft. Senator Owen, of Oklahoma, chairman of the banking commission, and lead CT of the opposition forces, withheld his vote declaring he could not approve the legislation.
 The house ways and means con- mittee already has prepared a re- port on the bill and consideration in the house will begin next week. Ex- petition is strongly urged by the ad- ministration because of the measured s effect on general finance and espe- cially the third liberty loan in April.

erly than. ever by officers here for the first signs of the 1918 campaign It is felt strongly that the opening of major operations in what President Wilson has predicted will prove the decisive year of the great war. will not be much longer delayed. Mud has been the determining factor of many previous western front operations. So long as the ground is soft with the winter rains, it is impossible to move forward great guns and necessary transport trains to support an advanc- ing line. Even in Flanders, however, indications this year are that the ground will harden early in spring, permitting either side to undertake the enterprises planned.
 In previous years, April has seen of fensive operations set Tn motion by the allies. For that reason many officers here seem to anticipate raiding and minor assaults before the middle of next month which will show in them selves that the ground is being map ped, information obtained and local strategic advantages established by one side or the other in preparation for a great effort.

lIOIIi IdSS OllCJ urges abolition of secret diplomacy, freedom of the seas, and abolition of prohibitive or discriminatory tariffs or taxes upon trade and commerce. For eign investments must bear their own risks another plank demands. Other conditions advocated are freedom of ships both by word of mouth and by printed matter, short ballot in state and municipal elections, right of absentee citizens to vote by affidavit, public ownership of public utilities and ex- tension of the postal system and parcel post system.
 Considerable argument was had as to whether the preamble to the plat form should read:

More Sunk Than Built

LONDON. March 8 (Wednesday).- Standard ships produced in British ship yards in fortnight are not equal to the sinkings by submarine, sir John R. Elman, steamship owner. declared today at a meeting of the champer of shipping. He explained that owing to the conditions under which shipowners are carrying on trade and war condi- tions, marine casualties, apart from enemy action, are double and treble what they were in the days before the war. He said that the output of ship ping since the war was not sufficient to make good the losses by marine causes alone, leaving the losses by enemy ac- tion yet to be made up.
 Baron Inchcape, complaining of what he termed the unpromising outlook, said that not a sound had been heard along the Clyde since noon last Sat urday. It might be, he suggested, that no war was going on and that no warships or destroyers to hunt sub marines were required. He said he thought more information about ship ping losses might be given the people to make them appreciate the gravity of the situation, adding:
 Our tonnage is being sunk at a rate of which the people have no con-

 Americas Contribution
 Now Americas real contribution to the naval welfare is aoout to be felt. With every passing week the strength of the forces will grow, for it is em- bodied in the most extensive construc- tion program ever undertaken for the navy of any power.
 The new destroyers and other craft must be added to the patrol fleets gradually as they are completed. There fore, no sudden falling off of tonnage losses is to be expected. It has been stated publicly by high British naval authorities, however, that next Aug ust VII show beyond question that the U-boats have been overcome. There are officials here who are hopeful that decided results will be apparent be- fore that, perhaps as early as May oI June.
