SITUATION IS GRAVE"
SAYS 1--WE HAVE RIO
CAUSE TO BE FAINT HEARTED"
Chancellor In Address to Heichstag
Says deep Discomfort ras Seized
the Population"

London. Sept. 25.-Count Won Hert-
ling, the German imperial chancellor,
addressing the main committee of the
reichstag, declared that the public dis
content in Germany was not justified
by the military situation on the west
ern front, according to dispatch
from Berlin.
The chancellor opened with the
promise to meet the desire of the
reichstag for information as far as
possible. He proceeded to allude TO
the deep discomfort which has seized
wide circles of the population" and
said that the principal reason was the
pressure of the terrible four years
of war, with all the deprivations and
sufferings brought in its wake, and
the sacrifices imposed on all classes,
all families and, more or less, on ev-
cry individual.
II have no intention of trying to
diminish this pressure by words" he
continued, "but, gentlemen, If this dis
content is Influenced by our present
military situation, by the events on
the western front, must, without de-
string TO anticipate statement which
we may expect from a representative
of the war ministry, declare most en-
phatically that it far exceeds justi-
fable limits"
Count Won Hertling admitted that
the last German offensive was unsuc-
cessful and that it had been necessary
to withdraw to the Siegfried line.
"The situation is grave" he added,
"but we have no cause to be faint
hearted. We have already had to pass
through harder times"
The chancellor instanced the fall
ure of the Verdun offensive, the
Somme battles and Brusiloff's mass
assaults, bringing in their train the
welI-remembered unfavorable reaction
on the AustrO-Italian front. Then
came Roumania's entry into the war.
1--WE never lost courage" he said,
"but showed our enemies what reso-
lutte will to victory could do.
"How do things stand now? We
have peace with Russia and Roumania
and even though conditions in Russia
are not yet clear and the future ap-
pears uncertain, nevertheless the for
mer menace from two sides has dis
appeared and a considerable part Of
our men of the Eastern army can be
employed in the West"

Neekwear Gets Attention.

Among the many accessories of the
toilette none commands more atten-
ton than the new neckwear. In pre-
vious years white was favored, but
this season the collars with touch Of
color will lead in popularity. How
ever, one may wear almost any cut
and kind and still be in style, for the
modes offer much variety. Much orig
inality is being displayed. The new
narrower types of sailor and Elton coll

ALLIES MAKING
GREAT PROGRESS
At ST. QUENTIN
British Close to Vital Part of Hin
denburg BuIWark.
FRENCH WIN THREE TOWNS
Huns Fighting Desperately to Regain
Trench Systems East of Ronssoy,
but Are RepuIsed With
Heavy Losses.

With the British Army in France,
Sept. 25.-Another Anglo-French as
sault was delivered against the Ger
man defenses before st. Quentin. Re
ports indicate the allied attack was
meeting with great success.
The British troops attacked over a
front of four miles from the Omignon
river south, and have taken about 800
prisoners.
The British seized the high ground
west of Fayet and cleared the woods
east of Fresnoy of the enemy and
stormed their way through Pontruet.
On the right the French captured
FrancillySelenoy, L'Epine De Dallon
and the village of Dallon, with more
than 500 prisoners and a large num-
Der of machine guns, bringing the
total prisoners yielded by operation to
1900.
Close to Vital Canal.
The capture of Pontruet places the
British only three-quarters of a mile
from the bend in the st. Quentin
canal, which forms a vital part of the
Hindenburg bulwark. 1t was around
Pontruet that the British captured
many hundreds of prisoners.
Fighting was proceeding in the aft
ernoon along the ridge between Pom
truet and Gricourt.
In Flanders British troops succeed
ed in pushing forward and occupying
a portion of the old British front line
southeast of Voormazeele, below Up
res.
In the Arras-Lens sector the Ger
mans tried to drive the British from
their new positions southeast of Cav
relle, but were completely repulsed
the British retaining their line in
tact.
Farther north five fresh German di
visions, including one of Alpine
troops, have arrived since Saturday.
Take Important Ground.
Ronssoy sector, where the British
since Saturday, by determined fight.
ing, have gained ground which cap
tured documents show to be a vital
part of the Hindenburg defenses, to
be held at all costs.
The Germans, attempting to retake
two posts east of Epehy, lost 200 pris.
oners and u machine guns, besides
leaving 100 dead within the British
lines.
Foe Defends Canal Gap.
The pressure which the British have
established is obvious. The great st
Quentin canal forms a strong natural
defense for the enemy for q great dis.
tance in this section, but just east OF
RonsSOy it runs underground for about
three miles. This gap is the waterway
defense the Germans have been de
Tending desperately.
In front of the canal along this gar
the Hindenburg line has been made
especially strong to protect the posi-
BILE gateway.
The fresh divisions the enemy has
thrown in here have led TO especially
hard fighting just east of RonsSoy, In
quadrilateral system of trenches
! which the British captured. The Ger
mans attacked here continuously anC
heavily, but on each occasion they
were repulsed with severe losses.

NEW LAND WILL CONFRONT US
 AFTER THE WAR
Will Be Great and New Problems to Be Solved Then Declares Lloyd
 George.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-"There is a new land confronting us," said Pre- mier Lloyd George in recent speech. What manner of country it will be-" he continued, twill de- pend on how the war goes and on how things go after the war.
 'I am more confident today than it would not be relevant for me to enter on at the moment; but one of the latest reasons is the impression made on me by the American troops saw in France. They are superb in material and in training, and in the way they have borne them selves in the trying conditions of battles they have fought. l found a great spirit of confidence which strengthens our conviction of vic tory.
 "The war has upset everything and when it is over the falling back into normal conditions will be an other disturbance. There will be a great social and economic disturb ance.
 There are two alternatives. One is that the war will have sobered the millions who have passed through the fires, whether in France or in the anxieties at home. Their vision will have been broadened, their sympathy deepened, their out look and purpose made clearer, firm CT and more exalted. There are mil lions who have been in daily con tact with death, walking hourly over it's trap dors. They have come into contact with very terrible re- alities. That is one view.
 "The other is that there are millions who for these years have endured privations, discomfort, wretchedness, as well as pain and terror, and who have made up their minds to have a good time for the rest of their lives when it is over. That is a very dangerous frame of mind for a nation to be in."
