lIIIED EFFORTS IN
 RUSSIA CO-ORD|NATED
,,to,national Councils at Arch orreI and VladivOstOk-Five Hiob Officials Will Compose VladiyostOk Council.

Washington. Aug. 22.-In order tc .,dinato the efforts of the allies .a the United States in Russia, an ,Hcal dispatch from France today .rs # has been decided to create two ,,4ernationa councils, one at Arch ,ocel including the entente ambassa- lors under the presidency of Ameri- .on Ambassador Francis, and the other at Vladivostok, to be composed of five high officials.
 On the Vladivostok council Great Britain will be represented by Sir Charles Eliot; France by Eugene Reg nault, former ambassador to Japan, and Japan by Mr. Matsuaira. It was said at the State Department today that an American representative had not been named.
 These councils, it is understood, will act as diplomatic representatives in dealing with the independent Russian governments in Siberia and pave the way for the great economic and in- dustrial commissions organizing to aid in the rehabilitation of Russia.
 This information reached the State Department today from Mir. Imbrie in telegram dated Aug. ?.
 It is thought here that this incident may have resulted from the situation that arose in Moscow at about the same time and which caused Consul General Poole to close the American consulate in Moscow. At that time after Lenine, the Bolsheviki premier, lad declared state of war existed with the British and French govern nents, Tchitcherin, the foreign minis ter, explained that it rather was a
 state or defense on the part of Rus sa,
 Americans in Petrograd, of whom there are approximately 20, have been warned to leave the country by the vice consul. Their houses have been searched and one of them is under arrest and one is in hiding.
 The Thirty-hrst regiment of United States regulars arrived today at 'ladlvostok from Manila, Secretary Baker announced this afternoon.

NARROWER BILL
 DEBATE BEGINS
 IN BOTH HOUSES
Final Passage Expected in the House Today and in the Sen ate Saturday-WideIy Diver gent Views.

Washington, Aug. 22.-Taking up the man-power bill, changing the army draft age limits to IS and 45 years, both branches of congress to- 1 day debated the measure, with the leaders planning it's passage by the House tomorrow and by the Senate Saturday.
 Spirited speeches urging that the needed man-pOwer for the army is counted upon to crush the enemy next year were made with crowded galleries, while outside a dramatic touch was given in the marching to martial songs and cheers of khaki clad infantry entraining for er1barka- tion points.
 Discussion in both senate and House centered upon opposition from some members to calling youths Is to the colors.
 The bill was piloted in the Senate and House by the chairmen of the re- spective military committees, Senator Chamberlain, of Oregon, and Rep- resentative Dent, of Alabama The former declared traditional the policy of subjecting boys as young as IS to military service and also -ham- pioned the "work or fight" amend ment to his committee.
 Representative Dent, frankly ad- hitting opposition to compulsory ser vice as a policy, defended the House committees amendment to defer until last calls for boys IS and l9, while Representative Kahn, of Cali fornia, ranking Republican member of the committee, urged adoption of the bill as originally presented, with out tying the hands of the war de- partment. He said all men between the proposed ages would be needed. An amendment proposing to make the minimum draft age 20 instead of Is was introduced by Senator Kirby, of Arkansas.
 Senator Wadsworth of New York offered an amendment extending the draft to the navy, while Senator Cum mins of Iowa, offered provisions to postpone calling youths and older men, also to modify the "work or fight" plan. Senator France of Mray- land, sponsored an amendment pro- hibiting military service abroad for youths under 21 but providing for their draft for military or other training.
 A vigorous speech in behalf of the bill was made by Senator Reed, of Missouri, who urged an army of 50O.00O Americans in Russia at once and predicted this country ultimately must furnish six million or seven million and undergo the severe hard ships of long war.
 General debate closed on the bill tonight and probably will be con

RETREAT GROWS ID DISORDER AT
 PARTS OF FRONT
French Approach the COucy Forest and Old Line on AiIette Advertisement Mangins Men Advance Seven Miles.

With the French Army in France. Aug, 22.-The retreat of the Germans before both the third and tenth French armies continues today with increased speed over large part of the battle front and in some cases in disorder
 General Mangin's men are ap- preaching the Coucy forest and are nearly on the line held in April along the river Ailette. They have also widened their hold on the Disc to Bretigny, midway between Noyon and Chauny.
 Bourgignon, St. Paul aux Bois and Quincy fell into the hands of the French today, giving them command of the valley of the Ailette from the region of oucy le Chateau to the Disc.
 General Humbert's troops also are pressing the enemy vigorously. Hav- ing occupied the height of Plemont, just south of Lassigny, which they surrounded yesterday, they have cap tured Thiescourt, which completes the conquest of the group of hills known as the Thiescourt massif. The enemy now has but a precarious hold on the valley of the Divette river, in which French cavalry is now operating.
 Several thousand prisoners have been taken since Wednesday evening and trophies in such great quantities that it has been impossible thus far to count them also have been captured
 General Mangin's troops advanced seven miles during the night and this morning were rushing the enemys rear guard so energetically that the retiring columns wer thrown into con- fusion.

COMMERCIAL CLUB CRISIS.

The Salem Commercial Club must have more mem
bers.
1t cannot exist and pay its running expenses without
a regular, adequate income
Salem needs the club to handle its civic activities and
drives that coming after the other now 1t
provides the organization and the center for the Red
Cross Liberty bond and food conservation campaigns
The Commercial Club the meeting place for all
the civic societies and all organizations engaged in public
work.
1t is difficult to how the city could get along with
out the Commercial Club and yet members do not come
forward voluntarily to provide sufficient income to keep
it open Other drives have succeeded each oher in such
quick succession that the necessary membership campaign
has been postponed from time to time in order not to in
terfere with the activities. Now however, the issue
be delayed no longer and the commercial club must
the requisite number of members close its DOORS
1t can no longer be conducted without an income.
The question will probably be decided this week. the
matter of handling membership campaign having been
placed in charge Of State Treasurer T. B. Kay who has
begun the active work of organization for the necessary
drive.

CAN'T DEAL WITH A DUMMY.

1t seems the big leaders among Cne pOulcldiiS pach
east if there are such things are incapable of under
standing plain English language When the president
made his reply to the first German peace OFFER Senator
Lodge and many others discovered mares nest and voc
ed their fears the president had made gevous mistake
in making any reply other than emphatic refusal to
discuss peace at ALL They overlooked the sef-evident
fact that all the president had done was to call over the
wire: Who's this talking? Later these gentlemen aus
covered that the main demand made by the president
had been ignored and that that there had been no
change of government and consequently no one with
whom this government could deal.
Monday on the receipt Of Germanys second note at
Washnpton the wise ones again got busy trying to de-
cipher something that incapable of any but one con-
strlction Senator Hitchcock put his goggles and re-
marked "The note appears to be an acceptance Oh te

chairman of the foreign relations committee and such
should know something whereof he speaks and yet his
remarks show his nexcsabe ignorance just as those Of
Roosevelt Lodge and others did of the reply to the first
note AS in the first case there is government yet
formed in Germany with whom this country or the al
lies can deal True Dr. Sof, speaking Tor the German
government states that new government has been Iorn
ed" but in the sentence says "a new constitution is
to be submitted to the people," There is as yet no power
capable of forming anew government for the German
people save the kaiser and the mitariss now IN control
They have set up dummy government with Solf as its
mouthpece and authorized it to do business with tine al

racy 1t will require the adoption OF constitution by the
people or revolution to create government IN
Germany and until one or the other of these happen all
talk about making peace with Germany or the latter ac-
cepting President Wilson's terms is utter Stiffness There
is no government in Germany to accept terms or to do
anything else in the way Of dealing with the allies con-
cerning peace terms
The alleged wise folks back in Washington should keep
in mind the fact that the nsistent demand made BY
President Wilson before peace be discussed is that
there shall be government in Berlin with which the al
lies can deal They should remember that the elimination
of the Hohenzoerns is the first STEP and that the Great
