 Two days remain for the raising of 1.-two billion dollars.
 On Saturday night the books will
 close absolutely Secretary McAdoo
 declared today. thus setting at rest
 persistent reports that owing to the
 retardins influence of the influenza
 cpidcmic, the government contemplat-
 ed giyins the nation another week in which to enter pledges.
 New reasons why inc loan should not be only raised but oversubscrlb- ed as emphasized today by Secretary McAdoo are that tremendous war eN- rerses will continue 10 run on for many months regardless of the out come ol Getmauys efforts for peace , Even if peace should come soon and no agency of the government is draw ing it's plans in this definite belief there will be immense manufacmrng contracts to bo thrilled. armies 10 be brought back to American shores and a mutitu-a of other expenses which the momentum of war will carry one.
 This means other War loans. Sec retary MeAdoo explained And what ever the measure of over subscription to the fourth loan may be- it sill de- lucted from future loans 50 that there will be no danger of piing up idle credit to the government account
 Actually, the funds now ben. gath cred in umts of fifty and one hunlre5 dollars have already been spent 10 a great extent
 More than three touiths of tine six billions expected or Sl,6G5000U4u. must go to pay off short term certlr- icates issued in by-weekly blocks since last June to get current funds with which to pay the nations war bills,
 The difference between that sum and the six billions is not enough 10 run the government for one month Consequently. unless the sourth loan is greatly oversuhscTbed and cash pay ments come in l.berally al once. the treasury will have to begin soon to issue more Ce@tificaNes for current expenses these 10 be paid from the proceeds from the fifth Liberty joan. Secretary MCAdoo is anxious that Iall citizens understand this situation, believing that their subscriptions in the final days of the campaign will be more willing and of large propor- tions if based upon intelligent comprc. hersion of the governments dollar needs
 Subscription reports today added $}SS, ,000oU0 to yesterdays loan total. and although this represents tie big gest single days contribution, ii ia short of the pro-rata amount sought 10 bring the total six billions by Saturday night Nearly a third of the addit- ion today or S1ol 00o000 came from the New York district and sent that district more than half way towards its $l, S00000,000 goal.

The Germans counter attacked, but
with the exception Of a small part of one
wing, the American line held steady.
Where it gave way. about three hundred
meters, the withdrawal was due to the
necessity of Strengthening the line.

WAGE INCREASES
IN MUNITIONS PLANTS
More Wages Ordered for All Who Are
Receiving Less Than rs Cents an
Hour at Bridgeport, Gem.

Washington, d. G., Aug. 2s--Wage in.
oreases to all workers now receiving less
than 7s cents an hour in Sc plants in the
munitions and related industries Of
Bridgeport, Conn, are provided in an
award by Otto NJ Eidlitz, umpire chosen
by the national war labor board to decide
controversies between the companies and
their employees
The decision affects some $4,000 work
ers, among when there has been dissat
isfaction for long time. A threatened
strike was avoided last week when Frank
~. Walsh, joint chairman Of the war la.
Dor board, addressed the workers with
plea for patience.
The umpire's award establishes a
minimum wage Of AZ cents an hour for
all male workers, skilled or unskilled q
years old or over, and a minimum Of 80
cents an hour for all female workers, IS
years or over. II grants the workers
demand for the basic eight hour day in
all the manufacturing plants; establishes
the right of workers 10 bargain collec-
lively and to join trade unions and pro-
yides that women doing the same work
as men shall receive the same pay
The wage increases provided for are
made retroactive to May /, in the case
Of the Remington Arms T. NJ G. plant
Liberty Ordnance company and American
IA British Manufacturing company, and
to 81 contract shops affected in the orig
inal controversy; to June 20 In case Of
six other shops which submitted to the
boards jurisdiction on that date and to
July | in the case Of "a plants which
voluntarily came before the board on
that date.
All the companies are given until Oct
/, 1918, TO complete the back payment Of
wages
On the important question Of classif
cation Of skilled men, the umpire decided
against changing present methods on the
ground that to suddenly order com
plete readjustment of the prevailing
working system would be preiudicial to
the interests Of the government, which is
directly concerned in the output Of the
Bridgeport industries. The workers de.
mand that they be classified as toolmak.
ers, machinists, specialists and machin.
ISIS Itipttb anu LUAh ~ minimum fhLE OF
pay be established for each Of these
classifeations.
In addition to the selection by the
workers Of committees to represent them
in their dealings with the arrangements
the decision provides that local board
Of six members be established Three Of
the members are to be chosen by and to
represent the workers Of Bridgeport and
three to be chosen by the employing
companies The function Of the board
will be to adjust future differences as
cannot be settled between employer and
employee.
The award Of Mr.. Eidlitz has been duly
made the award of the board.

he is ready for service, receives an edu-

to pull up in his own length from gal

for his rider, who snipes over his side.

JAPAN TO INCREASE
Army so PER CENT
And viii Build Three Times the Number
Of DTeadnoughts and Battle Cruisers
Previously Planned.

Toxic, Aug 2Ss- Correspondence Of
the Associated Press Japan has made
preliminary plans to increase her army
by fifty per cent and to build three
times the number Of dreadnoughts and
battIe-cruisers previously planned
No official announcement has been
made, but, it is understood that the pro-
iect adopted at a recent conference of
field marshals and feet admirals includes
the creation of an army of ri corps, or
AZ divisions and the enlargement Of the
navy so that it will eventually include
three main fleets, each to consist of eight
dreadnoughts and eight battle cruisers.
Each Of the new army divisions viii be
composed Of three regiments, instead Of
four, as at present.
Years viii be required to develop the
army and navy to the desired strength,
but beginning will be made as soon
rs conditions, especially financial condi-
tions, will permit
Under the new military program, ia
pan would have 1875 regiments, as
against the present S4, there being now
in existence "a divisions, each Of four
regiments. An increase Of ~ regiments
is provided for.
Of this increase, four new divisions are
covered by the army program laid down
in 1905 when it was decided to increase
the number Of divisions to p, or to q
total strength of 100 regiments This
program has not yet been carried into
effect. Writers on military matters es-
innate that the new plan contemplates
an eventual enlargement Of the Japa
nese army by fifty per cent above its
present strength with a corresponding
enlargement Of the reserve due to the
great numbers passed through the sery-
ice each year. Many think the expan-
sion win be easy from the standpoint
Of man-power.
The naval program at the last SEES
sion Of the Diet was to fill out feet
of eight dreadnoughts and six battle
cruisers The new naval proposal there
fore means that Japan plans to build
two squadrons each to be composed of
eight dreadnoughts and eight battle
cruisers, and two additional cruisers to
fill out the present battle cruiser fleet.
In other words the construction project
calls for sixteen additional dreadnoughts
and eighteen more battle cruisers.
