NEW BLOW IS EXPECTED ID BE
 ALLIES ANSWER
Will Be Convincing Reply to Teutons' Peace Offensive Attack on Several Sectors Of Western Front Anticipated.

Washington. Sept. 16.--Another A,ow aoainst the German lines as an .nswer to the peace proposal of the -entral powers is expected momen- tsrilv bv military officials here.
 The point of the expected attack is . matter of wide speculation by off ,ers Several simultaneous attacks r.l he delivered it is thought, with -be Flanders front. the French opera liens about Ia Fere directed at Laon and the new American front across -be mouth ot the old St. Mihiel salient ss the logical positions from which Marshal Foch would strike.
 It has been significant to some of icers that the British have not press si very heavily on the front between Ypres and pouai. North of Douai there has been only one minor opera ion by the BeIeians since the allied eounter-olfensivc began. British at tention has been concentrated to q large extent on clearing up to the Douai-C -Camhrai-St Quentin front and many observers believe the lines have lcen staigh,oued sufficiently along lis sector now for a new movement

COTTON CLOSES FIRM;
 F POINTS HIGHER
New York Market Shows Ner- vOusness During the Day Trading Much Less Active After Break Saturday.

New York, Sept l6.-The cotton market showed continued nervousness today, but trading was much less active after the severe break of Sae urday. and the tone was steadier. The general list closed barely steady, net x points lower to l2 points higher The market opened barely steady a. a decline, in response to a big break in Liverpool. Liverpool was a seller. but otherwise offerings were Hgh-. suggesting that long contracts dis tmbed by the price fixing statement of last Friday had been pretty wei liquidated
 Some scattered selling was reported for Southern account, but it was not active enough to suggest any ma terial change of views among interior spot holders.
 The Austrian peace overtures ap- peared to be received with skepticisnl. but probably promoted the tendency to even up short contracts. and the buying of that sort became more ac- tive after the publication of the west ern belt forecast for light frost.
 There seemed to be no apprehen- sion that temperatures would drop to the killing point so early in the sea son, but the cold weather suggested check in the growth which would render development promoted by re- cent rains less likely to mature Buy ing on this theory was held in chec, by the uncertainties of the pricc-fz- ing proposition, however.

]. s. PROMPTLY REJECTS TEUTON
 PEACE TELLER
Austria's Proposal is Turned Down as Soon as Received
 America Has Already Stated
 Its Terms. Replies Lansing.

|
 Washington, Sept. 16.-The United States, as was fully expected, has un- conditionany rejected Germany's peace fceler. In doing so, the govern. ment has spoken for all the co-belhg erentS
 Almost immediately after receiving the Austrian governments note from the minister from Sweden, Mr. Eken- gren, Secretary Lansing tonight is- sued this formal statement;
 "I am authorized by the president to state that the following will be the reply of this government to the Austro- Hungarian note proposing an unofficial conference of bellgerents:
 "The government of the United States feels that there is only one re- ply which it can make to the sugges- tion of the imperial Austro- Hungar- ian government. It has repeatedly and with entire candor stated the terms upon which the United States would consider peace and can and will entertain no proposal for a conference upon a matter concerning which it has made it's position and purpose so plain.
 Mir I.ansing's statement was given out within a half hour after he had received the Austrian proposal. It would have been forthcoming almost immediately upon the delivery of the Austrian note had it not been found necessary in order to avoid the pos sibilty of grave error to make care ful comparison between the official text and that which was received in news dispatches last night from Am sterdam.
 Thus emphasis was added to the de- clnation, if any were needed, the quickness of the reply indicating the mind of the administration as to what it should be. AS soon as Mr. Lansing's reply can be put in form it will be handed to the Swedish min ister for transmission to Austria.
 The Swedish legation notified the State Department early in the after noon that it had received the note and that it would be transmitted as soon as it could be decided and translated from the French. This consumed sev- eral hours and it was not until SEQ o'clock that Mir Ekengren appeared. He remained with the secretary only two minutes.
 There is some reason to believe that

CAMPAIGN OF EDUCATION
 FOR DRAFT EN AIDING

Little Rock, Sept Chairmen of County Councils of Defense are ad yised that if there is in any commun- ity tendency to resist the draft il is their duty to put on a campaign of patriotic education in that community and by education, personal conference and by law, correct the condition And it should be done in no other way" is the injunction of Adit. Gen, England
The Prescott daily news., 1918-09-17

cusslng the tactical disposition of the American army at this time and to observers here this suggests that pre- parations for a new advance are well under way. The logical objective. if is said, would be the occupation of the Briey iron fields and an effort to encircle Metz from the west. If Gen eral Pershing is moving toward that goal now, 1t is said a joint attack by his army and the French army holding the Verdun front would be a probable development. Such an ac- tion would be over a very extended front, however, and some further re- connaissance of the enemy's positions on the immediate American front may be necessary before it can be under taken
 Tactics employed by General Persh- ing in cleaning up the St. Mihiel sa- lient, in the view of officers here, show that the American commander has determined that maximum speed is essential to military success. He hurled forward his troops last week at an unprecedented pace and it was this rush which swept the German defend- CTS off their feet and gave them an opportunity for even an organized rear guard action. It is therefore ar S'ed that General Pershing may be expected to press his victory without delay and to rush the enemy in his new lines as soon as communication systems can be organized across the captured territory.

ABOUT EARLY AIRPLANES
A Georgia inventor

/ Young Harris, Ga, Sept. Z, 1918.
/ Dear Mrs. FELTON,: have been real
err of The Atlanta Journal ever since
you began writing. ---.s
always. enjoy your letters and get
great deal of information from them.
Please, if you know who invented the
FIRST flying machine let US know through
your paper. My father, McCayer c.
Dyer, began working on il in the SOS.
about 1855, I think He worked on it
until the Civil war. He was in the
war and did not work any more until
about 1857 m 1871 he thought-he had
it so it would work all right and sent
his model to Washington. W. P. Price,
of Dahlonega, and Colonel Redwine, O.
Gainesville, carried it there for him.
Authorities there were like myself, and
thought it impossible and did not give
hinf any aid or encouragement in his
work. N. c. Dyer did not live but 4
few years longer. He always said he
might not live to see them worked sue
cessfully, but that we children would
gee it. His words and works have been
brought back to my mind so much in
, the last few years by the success We
are having with the machines and I do
not remember to have ever noticed who
invented them.
Thanking you in advance for any in
I formation on this, l remain,

The Slavery of Sin

~ bitter cup each life must drain
The groaning earth is cursed with pain
And like the scroll the Angel bore,
The shudderinS Hebrew Seer. before
Oerwork alike without, within,
With all the woes that follow sin,
But bitterest of the ills beneath.
Whose load man totters down TO death,
Is that which plucks the regal crown
OF freedom from his forehead down
And snatches from his powerless hand
The sceptered sign of self-command,
Effacing with the chain and rod
The image and the seal of Cod.
Till from his nature day by day,
The many Virtues fall away,
And leave him naked. blind and mute,
The Godlike merging in the brute"
