Czecho-Slouuks VIII,
In France on First
National Birthday

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN
FRANCE. Oct 24.-(By The Associated
Press.)--October q, the newest of ma
tional fete days, will in years to come
be celebrated not only in Central Eu-
rope as the anniversary Of the birth in
exile of the Czecho-Slovak government,
out also at Terron-sur-Aisne, in France.
as the date of the first victory of the
Czecho-Slovak army.
Units of this latest arrival among
the belligerents in this war, fighting
with General Gouraud in the region Of
Vouzlers, received news of the consti-
tuition OF the Czecho-Slovak Govern
ment at noon, October 81. immediately
afterward they went forward to as
sault one Of the most difficult positions
along the Aisne and took the village
OF Terror at the point of the bayonet
These troops had been in line for six
days in particularly trying sector,
drenched by continual rains, wallowing
in mud and wading through the flooded
region along the river. In front of
them the Germans were strongly in
trenched and fortified in the village
OF Terron with their usual heavy arma-
ment of machine guns.
wild burst of enthusiasm greeted
the announcement by the colonel in
command Of the formation Of the
'Czecho- -Slovak government, after whicl,
the men listened in impressive silence
to the colonel's exhortations:
"Your colonel counts upon every man
to do his utmost to salute the const-
tuition of the government by victory"
he said. "The Czecho-S -Slovak nation
has its eyes upon you. Be of stout
heart, and-forward march"
Fifteen minutes only of artillery
preparation preceded the rush through
mud and water to the German lines
Led by Major Nusak, commanding the
battalion in the first line, the men left
their trenches at O'Clock to cross the
marshy zone swept by the fire from
nests of machine guns, the emplace-
ments of which could only be guessed.
The line became thinner and thinner
as it went on, but the survivors, i'll
spired by the example Of Captains Sib-
lik and Vlasak and Lieutenants Pliva
and Zatica, continued on to the first
houses in the village without faltering.
An hour later the entire position wA3
in their hands.

LONDON, Oct 23.--Lberated British
prisoners passing through Sofia on
their way to Salonica speak gratefully
of the work done by the American
Consul General at Sofia in their be-
half. according to dispatch to "Thc
Mail" They said that, although the
British and French prisoners endured
much hardship, the Scrbians were reg
ularly beaten by their Bulgarian
capt<SS, and often shot without excuse.
One British prisoner said: "The poor
devils were thrashed, worked to death
or slain in way that no civilized
country would allow dog to be
treated" Some members of the Brit
ish prisoner party are said to have
been pitiably pale and thin, but one
said: "There are men in far worse
condition than we coming"

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN

British troops to-day drove the Ger

Germans have broken down the banks

flooded vast stretches of the country

TRADE ouTLooK

NEW YORK. May 1s.-Dun's trade
review says:
With the ever-increasing pressure
Of governmental requirements tight
ening the restrictions on ordinary
transactions. the whole economic
structure is still undergoing a process
Of readjustment and further impor-
tant changes are inevitable. While
the transition from a peace to a war
basis continuing through the past
year has brought no general or con-
spicuous commercial disturbance, the
movement has not unnaturally caused
inconvenience and some unsettlement
in business, and many obstacles are
yet to be surmounted. The labor
question. both In its relation to trade
and manufacturing and Its bearing
on agric culture. Is not the least per-
picking of the various problems be-
ing encountered. and the shifting Of
men to the most essential occupations
Is becoming a more imperative expedi-
ent as additional numbers are called
into military service.

Although the figures announced by
the Treasury Department showing
the results of the third liberty loan
did not go into details such as the
standing of the cities throughout the
country, the latest information avail

only city with population of
250.000 or more which won a blue

subscribers. In the first loan the sub
Scriptions amounted to $19.261 400,

In explaining the figures the Treas
