GENERAL FOCH PLACED
IN SUPREME COMMANn.
Official Information Reaches Washing
ton That Distinguished French
Officer Has Been Placed at
Head of All Armies in
France.

! formation has reached Washington
that General Foch, the French chief OF
stat. has ;eoa apmt"'. : Supreme
command Of all the ,llied and Ameri-
can forces in Fran
This means unfit IA of all the
armies opposing the Germans, a step
which the American and French mill
tary men long have urged and which
apparently has been brought about by
re gn:tion of the imperative demand
fn concentrated effort to hurl back
the gigantic thrust of the enemy in
France.
1t was learned tonight that the
president had been officially advised
of the action when he sent a cable
gram to General Foch today congratn-
lating him on "his new authority"
There was no explanation at the
White House Of what the president
meant, and it is understood that there
will be no official comment here until
after an announcement comes from
France.
The first hint of the historic de-
velopment came in press cable dis
patches telling how General Pershing
had placed the American expedition
ary forces at the disposal of the
French commander. This was con-
firmed tonight in message from
General Pershing to the war depart
.ment
General Pershing's message, made
public by the acting chief of staff, fol-,
lows:
"Have made all our resources avail
able and our divisions will be used II
and when needed French in fine splr-
its and both armies seem confident"
There was no mention in the Per
shing dispatch of the new authority
given General Foch and war depart
ment officials were speculating over
the reason for the absence of any Of
fetal announcement. Some still were
inclined to believe that the French
general had been placed in command
only of the army of manoeuver," the
reserve force composed of contingents
from all the allied armies created at
ter the formation of the supreme war
council
In his message to General Foch,
President Wilson said:
ebay | not convey to you my SIN
ceIe congratulations on your new au-
thority? Such unity of command is
most hopeful augury of ultimate sue
cess. We are following with profound
interest the bold and brilliant action
of your forces"
Before General Pershing's message
came tonight General N lrch was with
out advices to confirm the presidents
disptach because of the inevitable de-
laws in transmission of official mes
sages.
The news of the appointment OF
General Foch. one of the heroes of the
Marine, to supreme command, gave
rise instantly to suggestions that the
presence of Secretary Baker in Eu
rope was connected with the develop
ment.

DO YOU WANT TO VOTE

One issue that all Republican papers and
speakers have carefully eyaded is the june
ton of the disloyal vote with their party.
They have complained that Democrats
charged Republicans with disloyalty. al
though no Democrat has charged that Re-
nublicans generally were disloyal. On the
contrary. il has been made plain repeatedly
that il was conceded that the average Re
publican was as loyal as anyone.
But IL has been pointed out that in time
OF war an opposition party necessarily
draws the disloyal element 10 il. At present
every pro-German goes with the people that
are criticising President Wilson. because

NATIONAL SECURITY LEAGUE

In its four-hushing with the humbug cir

OF the league circular, there Is no comment

Congresses. and adds: Where no des glar-
Ing mark appears opposite A CongrssSn ahs

was paired accordingly. cross tA) Iudi-
Gates that he voted WRONG or was paired

circular has been used lob tat purpose by
the publicity department OF tie Republicans

Republican papers. There is nO point what
ever TO the stun they have been printing Oh
any other construction OF the circular.
Moreover. the Star and other Republics
papers have carefully suppressed the facts
that the eight votes selected are not the

OF these two Congresses. which every oooy
knows TO be true, because the 65th Con-
gress is still la session, ana there have been
dozens OF more Important votes than any Of
these; that four OF these principal votes
are really votes on trick amendments TO adj.

RURAL MOTOR EXPRESS
REACHES WIDE FIELD
Every Citizen in Indiana Effect.
ed by Efficiency of Motor
Truck Work.

Calling attention to the Rural Motor
Express, and the Return Loads
Bureaus, the members of the High
way Transport Committee of the
State Council of Defense. Evans
Wooden OF indianapolis, l. d. Straus
of Ligonier and A. E. Reynolds OF
Charlottesville, point TO the economy
they will mean to Indiana when de-
yeloped TO the utmost efficiency.
The Motor Truck Express system OF
hauling and the Return Load Bureaus
have been fathered by the National
Council of Defense to help the trans
portation problems of the railroads
and to make local transportation
cheap and perfectly flexible thing.
The suggestion comes from the
Highway Transport Committee of the
state Council of Defense that rural
motor truck express lines over the
main highways surrounding the popu-
lation centers should be established
because of the following important
war advantages:
Farmers Produce More.
Production is stimulated. Farmers
increase the variety and quantity of
production when regular marketing
facilities are available.
Farmers are relieved of their task
of hauling their products. to market
and the existing farm labor supply is
thereby conserved
Additional food supply is available
by tapping the farm communities
which have no other good shipping
facilities. Much OF this food is either
wasted or greatly deteriorated be-
cause of poor shipping facilities.
With labor scarce and food de-
mands high, this motor express is
needed. Where this service is in
operation, farmers say that termina-
ton of that service would result in
reduced production.
Big War Measure.
The possibilities OF this system are
big as a war measure. Reinforced by
the Return Load idea, one sees the
perfect system OF transportation
growing out of hauling full loads both
ways. There is no loss in man power
In hauling; there is no damage to the
reads by unfilled trucks and farmer
and city man, retailer and wholesaler,
consumer and producer are served in
the very best way to win the war.
Working out this big idea with the
State Council of Defense are the bust
ness and commercial organizations of
the state, such as the indianapolis
Chamber Of Commerce, which has
established a Return Load Bureau
with an Office at the Indianapolis
Stock. Yards, where the hundreds of
trucks coming there daily can find
loads for return hauling.
The truck men of the state have
fallen in line with enthusiasm, for
these return loads make their motor
trucks 100 per cent. efficient.
