GERMANY EXPECTED
To IGNORE AUSTRIA
Rather Than Aid Crippled
Ally is Expected to Push
New Attack
THRUST in NOW
EXPECTED DAILY

WASHINGTON. June 26.-News from
Italy yesterday. while confirming the
great victory won by the Italians IN
hurling the Austrian army across the
Piave In disorganlzed retreat, threw
little additional light upon the extent
Of the disaster TO the enemy. Until ag-
ures are available showing more fully
the loss to the Duel Monarchy In men
and material, officials here hesitated 10
form opinions as TO the probable effect
the defeat will have on the whole mill
tary situation.
On the face OF the latest news from
the Italian front, 1t appeared to many
observers that the Austrian army, as an
offensive weapon, is not 10 be seriously
considered for months 10 come. II will
take time TO repair the damage to NOR
ale and equipment, even II the inter-
nal situation produced by shortage OF
food among the civilian population does
not further cripple Austria's military
power. The Dual Monarchy by Itself
is believed here 10 be out Of the tight
ing for the summer.
What Germany plans TO do or will be
able to do to aid her chief ally Is an
other matter. AS yet there Is no sign
OF great movement OF German troops
to the Italian front. Unless such a
movement is undertaken Immediately
many officers here are convinced that
II will mean that Germany intends TO
seek to save the situation by attempt
ing at once to complete her offensive
projects in France.
Premier lloyd Georges enounce-
ment yesterday that the world is ION
the eve" Of great events, was taken In
some quarters here TO mean that he
anticipated the delivery by the Ger
mans Of their utmost effort In France
within a matter Of days. II Is as
sumed that information has reached
London showing that Germany has Sc
lected the alternative OF fighting Il out
10 the bitter end in France rather than
forego the advantages OF her offensive
there while she rushed reserves to sup
port Austria.
There are many American officers
who do not believe the internal situa-
ton in Austria Is as serious as reports
from adjacent countries indicate, ana
that Germany is confident its ally can
hold against the Italians long enough
10 permit It TO concentrate all It's power
for a final blow in France. These OF
flcers anticipate the opening OF a great
drive at any moment. II 1t does not
come they will regard it as admission
by the German high command that the
whole Austrian military and govern
mental fabric is tottering, and must
fan unless German power is rushed to
its support. l.
In any. event, keen satisfaction is
taken here in the certainty that the
Germans are facing new and serious
problems as a result OF the Italian
triumph on the Piave, while Gen. Foch
is seing his forces increased every
dav as the American troops pour ashore
from their transports. Gen. Foch's most
doubtful hours have passed, 1t IS be
lievod although months am bitter hgnt-
ing may be Just ahead, while for the
Germans a crisis is at hand.

Publication Of "Blue Hem

PRESIDENT WILSON PRO-
CLAIMS LIBERTY DAY
Anniversary of Americas
Discovery, October y

Every day the great princi-
Piles for which we are fighting take
fresh hold upon our thought and
purpose and make it clearer what
the end must be and what we must
do to achieve it. We now know
more certainly than we ever knew
before why free men brought the
great nation and government we
love into existence, because 1t
grows clearer and clearer what
supreme service it is to be Ameri-
cas- privilege to render to the
world. The anniversary of the
discovery Of America must there
fore have for us in this fateful
year a peculiar and thrilling sig
nifcance. We should make it a
day of ardent rededication to the
ideals upon which our government
is founded and by which our pre-
sent heroic tasks are inspired.
Now, therefore, |, Woodrow
Wilson, President Of the United
States of America, do appoint Sat
urday, the 18th day Of October,
1918. as Liberty day. On that day
l request the citizens of every
community Of the United States,
city, town and countryside, to
celebrate the discovery of our
country in order 20 stimulate a
generous response to the Fourth
Liberty Loan. Commemorative adj
dresses, pageants, harvest home
festivals, or other demonstrations
should be arranged for in every
neighborhood under the general
direction of the Liberty Loan COM
mittee. in cooperation with the
United States bureau of education
and tine public school authorities
Let the peoples response to the
Fourth Liberty Loan express the
measure Of their devotion to. the
ideals which have guided the
country from its discovery until
now, and of their determined pur,
pose to defend them and guarantee
their triumph.
For the purpose of participat
ing in Liberty day celebrations al
employees of the federal govern
ment throughout the country
whose services can be spared ma,

day of October, for the entire day

upon the caisson drawn by SIX

At the grave the ceremony was

we laid the body away on the lit

one who is dear to me:

Shall shake the violets from her hair,

BOARD CENTER
(Continded from Page y

Alice Carr is secretary and Mr..
Daniel Thompson field agent for
the committee which has its head
quarters at the Hose House. Re-
Gently two women, Miss Lena
Evans Of Newark and Miss Anna
Glenn of Yorklyn, were added to
this committee. Their particular
line of work includes the inter-
viewing of women within their
district with a view to discovering
what is their present employment,
whether or not it is essential,
what are their qualifications for
doing certain lines of war work
and urging women at present un-
employed or employed in non-eS-
sential industries to enroll as war
workers and wherever possible re-
lease men for active service.
These women will meet on Thurs
day evening, October 10, for or
ganizaticn and will assume their
duties in a few days.
The field agent takes in effect
a census of the industries within
his district with regard to number
Of workers, vacancies, positions
now held by able-bodied men but
which might be flied by women
and those employed in essential
industries but not essential to
them.
A clearing house is established
by this committee between en-
ployer and employed. Already 6
or 8 men have been transferred by
this board to essential industries;
one non-essential industry has
been closed down; and numerous
applications from local industrial
plants for workers, have been filed
and few men procured for local
concerns.

Dear Mrs. Wilson:

Dear Mrs. Wilson:
No doubt you have been mott
fed, long before you receive this
letter, of the death of your grand
son, Lieutenant James A. O'Dan-
iel, but | have just returned from
the funeral and want to write to
you while still under the influence
of the event. Your grandson was
a stranger to me, indeed a new ar
rival to this camp, but | saw his
machine just before it fell; after
the fall | saw the wreck of it be-
side the hedge where it struck the
earth, and today l was called upon
to conduct the service. The event
has made a powerful impression
upon me; indeed it has made an
impression upon all the camp. He
is the first officer to be laid to rest
in the little cemetery here.
| wonder if someone has writ
ten you of the accident. Perhaps
the little | saw may be of interest
to you. Riding out past the Avia-
ton Field | saw the plane take the
sky, and as it passed over us |
could see the two occupants. We
commented on cur desire to go up
some day, and after we were saet-
ed at a small restaurant on the
lawn, one of our company noted
that the motor was missing. A few
minutes later a lieutenant at the
table next to ours remarked that
he had seen it descend abruptly to
earth. Soon a second plane left
the field. flying low in the direc-
ton of the place where the first
had fallen. It was not long after
it had returned that the ambul-
ance rushed past, and took both
1t. O'Daniel and his companion to
the Hospital. We mounted and rode
to the scene Of the accident. The
machine had sailed through some
/ apple trees and struck the earth
near a high hedge. There we
found that your grandson had
been killed and the pilot wounded
Al of us were saddened bey0n5

This afternoon at five we car,
ried him to the little American

NEVAOA'S LIBERTY LOAN
QUOTA Is S2,500,00O

Nevada's Liberty Loan quota for
the third loan has bcesi placed at ST.
100000, according to a telegram re-
ceiycd By the Liberty Loan commit
tee from II. a. Lennon, who went to
San Francisco last night, to attend a
food conference and to discuss the
Liberty Loan with federal reserve
bank officials.
In the first loan Nevad8's quota
was $2.199.5OO and in the second 81.
SS6.O5O The reduction was made in
Nevada because of local conditions
which would prevent the state from
subscribing to as great an extent as
in the last loan. II was estimated
that when the extent of the loan was
made known on Monday that Nevada's
quota would be $3,5OO,OOO.
