sugar to illustrate the method by which
the taxation of profits can be utilized

as defining his position on the general
subject Of price regulation and as in

commodities that will tend to maintain
production at the level demanded by

of the fighting may be gathered from
the struggle on each wing. The vii
lage of Courcelles changed hands nu-
merous times, and, when this dispatch
was sent, was in the possession of the
allies. At the other end of the line
Mont Renaud was still making a mag
nificent defense, and last reports
showed that LIE Plemont was yet in
allied hands.
Only One Real Gain.
The center, about Ressons-sur- Matz,
where the Germans made their most
obstinate effort and formed a pocket
tending southeastward, is the only
part of the line against which the
Germans have been able to report
real gain. Their intention is to try
to reach the banks of the Disc and
threaten the allied salient which ex-
tends to the vicinity of Noyon.
The Germans knew when they
opened the attack that their task
would be difficult. Therefore they
sent into the fray only chosen divi-
sions, which had been specially
trained for the assault. 1t is esti-
mated that they engaged approx
mately 20 divisions on the front line
for the first shock, while behind
these, ready to take the place Of the
exhausted divisions, there probably
were similar number, perhaps even
greater.

ARMY OFFICERS
GUESTS OF CHAMBER
INVITATION is EXTENDED TO
BUSINESS MEN TO TAKE
PHYSICAL TRAINING

The officers who will have charge
of the training of the enlisted men
who will enroll at the University of
Idaho next Saturday for special train
ing, for military work, were guests
of the Moscow chamber of commerce
at the weekly luncheon today noon,
and told of the work that will be done
here. They are Captain Edgington,
and Lieutenant George Hannh, who
will have direct charge of the train
ing of the men. Each of these Off
GERS addressed the chamber and out
lined the work that will be done. A
general invitation was extended by
Captain Edgington to the business
men Of Moscow to send their sons
and their employees who can be spared
and to come themselves for the phys
ical training or "setting up exercises"
which will occupy an hour every
morning. Captain Edgington de-
clared this is one of the best physical
urged the business men to avail them
selves of the opportunity to take it.
That Moscow will exert every effort
to entertain the soldiers sent here
and make them feel at home, is evil
denced by the programs being
arranged for this purpose. Rev. H.
O. Perry, pastor of the Methodist
church, stated that the churches and
homes of Moscow's church members
will be thrown open to the soldiers,
who will be welcome to take advan-
tage of general invitation to visit
these. The ladies of the guild of ST.
Marks Episcopal church are planning
a series of dances in Guild hall at
which well-known ladies of Moscow's
church and social sets will act as
patronesses.
