quence "a matter OF impoTtance) TO
set forth the opinion that a new Of
fensive will speedily take place as
amounting to a conviction.
THE question about the secret
agreements between Russia and her
allies, must not be allowed to rest,
The hostile governments try to frus-
trate the effect of all publications
bearing upon the agreements with
all the means at their disposal in
order that their people may not learn
they were egged on into the war.
Economic Conditions.
Serious economic conditions are
disclosed by the censorship orders.
One forbids the publication Of
advertisements OF dog meat for sale.
Samples of some Of the other
memoranda follows:
I'm the interest OF a victorious
carrying through of the war, which
is endangered by every stoppage Of
work, expressions Of the press which
recommend strike or express them
selves otherwise in favor Of a strike,
are forbidden.
at is desired that it should be
clearly and distinctly put in the fore
ground that the enemy offensive has
utterly failed on all fronts, that the
entente has no alternative but to at
tempt new offensive as the enemy's
statesmen are still against peace.
THE publication and discussion OF
the resolutions adopted in a strike
meeting Of the Leipsig unions and Of
a telegram sent to the imperial
chancellor, are not permissible.
at is not desired to discuss or
even to mention the German 1mporta-
tions from abroad, especially from

Sir Cecil Spring Rice (above) and
Lord BERTHE.

London, Jan. SIN recently an
nouncing the approaching retire
ments Of Ambassadors Lord Cecil
Spring Rice and Lord BERTHE, en-
voys to Washington and Paris, it is
stated here that the shake-up does
not indicate a change in the ambas-
sadorial policies Of the British gov
eminent, but is a move to bring
fresh blood into a service which has
long been divorced from the actual-
ties Of modern life"
That the reorganization will not in
any way disturb the policies of Great
Britain in her prosecution of the
war or in her relations with. her
allies, has been emphasized in au-
thoritative. circles here.
Sir Cecil Spring Rice came to
Washington in 1913 to succeed Am
bassador Bryce, who was retiring on
account of age in, accordance with
the practice of Britain's diplomatic
service, The outbreak of the war
brought extremely heavy duties upon
the British envoy and for some while
past it has been known that he de-
sired to be relieved as soon as a
change could lbe made. Sir Cecil
rendered his resignation at the time
Foreign Minister Balfour came to
America last. spring and since that
time has been awaiting its accept
ance. .v
Among local papers the Daily
Chronicle has led in pleading the
need of reform, insthe Iambassadorial
peRsonale of Great Britain and has
stated that broadly speaking the
prestige of the British diplomatic
service stands none too high today"
That men whose chief qualifica-
tions are not aristocTatic birth and
wealth and whose lives have not been
spent in an atmosphere so utterly
remote from the realities of the
modern world are the real need Of
Britain's diplomatic service today, is
the opinion of those in touch with
the events that have brought about
these important changes.
While there has been no statement
as to who will succeed to the am
bassadofships or when the change
wilI3 take place, it is felt that the in
formation will soon be forthcoming.
Colvilles Barclay, counsellor Of the
Washington embassy will probably
serve in the meantime as charge.

WILLIAM ALLEN
TAKEN BY DEATH
MONDAY EVENING
District Manager of May
tag Companl Succumbs
at Billings, Mont.

William H. Allen, district manager
of the Maytag Implement company
in Fargo for the last ten years, and
who was forced to give up his work
last fall because of illness, died Mon
day evening at Billings, Mont, &C
cording to word received in Fargo
this morning.
Mr., Allen and his wife left Fargo
in October Mr.. Allen going to Bill
ings in the hope that the change of
climate would give him relief from
/ cerebral hemorrhages, from which
he suffered at frequent intervals.
The funeral services will be held
at Nevis, Mimi, where Mr.. Allen had
summer home. The remains viii
be brought through Fargo on train
No. 4 of the Northern Pacific Thurs
day afternoon.
Mr.. Allen was about so years old,
and as a member Of the Maytag Inn
plement company's staff for 35 years,
he had become we'll known over the
entire northwest. 1t was about ten
years ago that he came to Fargo as
district manager in charge Of the
company's interests in North Dakota,
South Dakota and Montana. During
most of their residence in Fargo, Mr..
and Mrs. Allen made their home in
the Island Park district. residing at
703 Fourth street south at the time
of their departure from Fargo.
Mr.. Allen was born in New York
state, just outside the city Of New
York. Prior to his residence in Far
go, he made his home in Granite
Falls, Mimi
Three children, Lloyd Allen, of
Great Falls, Mont; DR.. Thomas AL
len, Of Chicago, and Miss Mildred
Allen, Of Litchville, N D., survive.
Miss Allen, who is teaching in the
Litchville schools, will come to Fargo
this evening, and will be a guest at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry j..
Rusch, 400 Eighth avenue south. She
will join her mother in Fargo Thurs
day and go with her to Nevis to at
tend the funeral. 1t is also expected
that Lloyd Allen will accompany the
remains of his father from Billings.
None of the children were present
when the end came, as there had
been no change in his condition to
warrant their being called. 1t is
presumed here that his death occur
red during one Of the usual attacks
which had come with increasing
frequency recently.

CIVIC RALLIES WILL
Fight LAW VIOLATORS
Enforcement League Plans Series of
Meetings in Eastern Part of
State to Combat Liquor Traffic.

Anticipating renewed activity on
the part of violators Of bohe dry
laws, state and federal, the North
Dakota Enforcement league is plan
ming to hold about 100 civic rallies
along the eastern border-line to
arouse public sentiment and obtain
cooperation. Rev G. w Finwall,
assistant superintendent. began Sun
day, January s, at Valley City, and
win speak in almost every town in
Barnes, Cass, Ransom. LaMoure,
Dickey, Sargent, Richland, Trail
and other eastern counties. He
promises to reveal much of interest
to the people, will inform the people
as far as 1t may be deemed judicious,
concerning the proposed activities of
the league. in certain localities dur
ing 1918.
Rev. r. L. Watkins, the superin-
tendent. at the present time at "a
sanitarium recuperating after a
most strenuous year, expects to use
much Of his time in a. number Of dis
trict courts during the next three
months, while Mr.. Finwall will keep
the people informed as to necessary
movements made against violators.
He intends to reach Fargo about
February 2.

in that form, as blur, the spreading
OF which may unfavorabIy affect the
opinion of the German people, yet
the fact must not be overlooked, on
the other hand, that the United
States with the support of its
capacity for material and Industrial
management is arming itself for war
with great energy and tenacity. The
war preparations in America are,
therefore, as was intimated in the
reichstag at the time, not at all to
be made little of. but must be taken
seriously without on that account
being made a source of worry.
Another dated June says:
Petit Parisien informs US that
five American divisions, numbering
125, 900 men, may be expected in
France in the autumn of 1917. 1t is
urgently requested not to reproduce
this information without some COM
ment. We do not wish to under
estimate the ability of America to ac-
complish things, but must not, on the
other hand, overestimate it. In
order to bring a division over from
America $4,000 tons must make the
trip twice. Therefore, from the mere
fact Of lack Of space, the transporta-
ton of such a body of troops within
certain fixed time limits is impossi
BILE. Moreover, it is impossible to
train these troops properly by autumn.
These facts which have recently been
discussed in the German war news,
cannot be too strongly emphasized in
the discussion of that French news.
Anti German Talks Barred.
Printing of antf-German speeches
in the Austrian parliament is forbid
den in various instances, and the
attitude to be taken by the German
press, both for it's effect at home and
upon Austria Hungary. Is indicated in
the following, dated June 6.
"A few days ago, the Austro- Hun
garian press was left free to dis
cuss the war aims. I'VE can un-
reservedly endorse the war aims
given out in the majority Of the
Austro- Hungarian press. OF course,
the fully warranted and not con-
siderable war aims which are needed
for the conservation and development
OF the monarchy as well as for a
world peace, can only be achieved IL
