BEGINS SATURDAY NIGHT


ITALIAN ARMY HEADQUART-
ERS, Sunday. June 23-The great re-
treat by the Austrians along the Piave
front began under cover OF darkness
on Saturday night The retreating
troops left their cannon behind them.
Italian deta chments are pursuing the
enemy east of the Piave.
Austrian troops left to cover the re-
treat used their machine guns to set
up a barrage FIRE.
When 1t was observed that the Aus
trians had begun retrograde move
ment the italians began to attack vir-
tually all along the Pave line from
Monticello on the north, well towards
the mouth Of the river. The attack
was quickly pressed and became more
insistent, accomplished by violent ar
tillery fire.
The number OF guns left behind by
the Austrians as they retreated, has
not been computed, but is said to be
very great.
The work Of the American aviators
who appeared on the front last week
for the first time contributed notably
to the DISCRIMINATION of the Austrian
forces which had crossed the Piave,
according to Raffaele Carmel, cores
pondent of the Milan Secolo.
Shattered on the rock OF Italian re
sistance, the Austrian offensive has
turned into a retreat and from Mon
tello to the sea the enemy is hurrying
back across the Piave before the
closely pursuing Italians.
Austria's defeat is being hailed
throughout Italy and allied countries
not SO much because Of the Italian
victory but because of the awakening
of the Italian morale which was shak
en- severely last fall by the Austro
German offensive. Holding the final
barriers to the Venetian plain, and
Lombardy, the Italians by their stead
fast resistance during eight days OF
heavy fighting turned the great enemy
onslaught into a disorderly repulse.
Most Bridges Are Gone.
Whether the several enemy divi
sions on the western bank Of the Piave
will be able to escape capture or de
struction in attempting to get across
the Piave to the opposite bank will
be the most interesting development
of the next few hours. The river is
swollen, and Vienna, in its latest
communication, seems to be prepar
ing the way for unwelcome news. II

DISASTER WRITTEN LARGE

DISASTER WRITTEN LAHGE
tBy Associated Press
Disaster seems to be written large
In the news of the Austrian defeat
along the Piave.
Unable to force his way further
than the immediate vicinity Of the
west bank of the river, and with the
bridges thrown across the stream
swept away by the swirling waters
OF the flood pouring down from the
mountains, the enemy began a pre-
cipitate retreat Saturday night.
So hasty was his withdrawal that
he left a great many cannons on the
west bank of the Piave, while his re-
treating infantry columns, according
to news dispatches, are already being
pressed by Italian detachments thrown
over to the easterly side of the stream.
From the Montello plateau south
ward to the Adriatic comes the same
story of the Austrian retreat The
Piave river formerly emptied into the
the sea quite near Venice. but in re.
cent years it's course was changed to
its present location.

the reader will compare the language
OF the cumulative vote resolution. that
is that part TO which the Robertson
forces seek to build up resentment on
the part OF the voter il will be found
that IS Just exactly the language OF the
constitution OF the United States. And
II does not require much more of. an
answer. Like all the rest OF the
Robertson Alexander roarabacks d.
rected at Murray. according TO Mr.
Murray's friends, Il will not be found
to have any foundation when once the
of a fair minded person is
turned 10 IL.
Last night Mr. Murray received a
remarkable reception from Oklahoma
City and county voters. His meeting
had been well advertised and the pes
pie were much interested in his al
dress. The professional politician
found little to interest him in Mr. Mur-
rays address except 10 stir his patri-
otism and awaken him to the neces-
sity OF choosing a governor for Okla
homa who can measure up 20 the
standard that will be required during
the term approaching. Mr. Murray's
machine gun-like fire OF fact and fig
ures regarding the war anazed those
who were not familiar with his repu-
tation as being a storehcuse OF in
formation. Mr. Murray's analysis Of
the duty OF the civilian under present
conditions Is the recital OF a creed OF
Americanism that might well be car
ried to every citizen OF the country.
You owe every dollar. every ounce OF
strength, every atom OF ability to the
government and its noble warriors.
and more. YOU owe a duty to yourself
and TO your neighbor to get ready for
that period which will follow the close
of the war. America is learning rap
idly lessons OF self denial as well as
patriotism; duty to man as well as
country. and there will be many
problems in the postwar period.
Let's. get ready for them: let's make
these brave boys Of ours understand
that we mean what We say when We
tell them we are behind them to the
last ditch. II is our duty to make this
country safe for them and for Us when
the war closes and foolish. foppish
living is not the way to do IT. is
perhaps the essence OF his statement.
