Inc letter lDlONS.
April 20. 1918. The board Of di-
rectors OF the Chamber Of Commerce
has considered very carefully an edi-
to.ial on Frieda Hempel, which was
printed in the Tribune Monday night,
pril Is.
In the concluding paragraph OF that
editorial was an expression, the sub
stance Of which indicated that we
should leave attacks upon women TO
the Germans. with the inference that
We were not doing so. in view Of the
demand upon Miss Hempel TO cancel
her Des Moines engag cement.
The board of directors construed
this as not only an unnecessarily dis
courteous reference 10 the local action,
the wisdom OF which nobody can ques-
ton. but resented the contemptuous in
ference that women in America were
treated in any such fashion as women
in Belgium and France have been
treated by the German government.

tude OF the board of directors TO you

The Cornbelt Farmer refers to the

thinks II is very much worth the eff

Everybody knows that army shoes
are the most comfortable and the
cheapest that can be bought, but when
they are bought by the millions they
mean lot of money. General PERISH

nine pairs a year. One pair costs So
10. One $50 Liberty bond will buy
one mans shoes for year. To buy
shoes for 100000 men takes $751;
100000.
Food.
The addition Of 100000 men will
mean that America must provide food
for approximately 100000 It costs
$50 year to feed one soldier, so the
nation must provide a fund of $780,
100000 to feed our army during the
coming year.
AIrplanea
Airplanes are one Of the most im-
portant and expensive items Of our
fighting equipment. One aviator used
from five to eight planes a year. and
for every flyer there must be 40 men
on the ground after the machine Is in
commission. Every thousand feet Of
lumber used costs sos. and 100000
feet month are needed. which totals
a sum Of $1.050O00. The planes
needed cost from $1,000 to $4,000
each, and the service needs at least
10000 Of them. Appropriations thus
far made for them have been $64O, OOO,-
600 and $3.50, 100000 more is needed.
Rifles.
Rifles make large item in army
expense. The average life Of rife on
the fighting front is nine days. One
Enfield costs $780, We are shipping
100000 rifles to France every month,
at a cost Of $4,S75,OOO. For a year
that means total Of $5S.5OO.OOO.
One hundred rounds Of rife ammu-

men with 100 rounds each would cost
$15,O00.OO0 A seven-day's barrage fire

(By j. M. Jeffries.)

uondon Times-Phil. Ledger Cop. Cable.)
Vienna, Dec. 3.-Order prevails in
the German portion of Galicia, known
as the Duchy of Posnania, where the
Poles are conducting the administra-
tion in Posen and other towns. In
the Russian portion, which Is known
as the Kingdom and includes the
capital of Warsaw, there is order at
the moment, but the government is
dangerously close to socialistic ex-
tremes of bolshevism. In Gaficia
there is no government. Cracow Is
without defense against 1narchy and
pillage. Only one entire Polish regi-
ment has, managed as yet to return,

remarkable protection to Cracow.
Pryzlemsyl is still intact and unin-
iured by the siege, the effects of
which were confined to the fortifca-
tions. The fights between the Poles
and the Ruthenians were small af-
fairs.
Calm prevails in Lemberg, the
Poles having captured the city, end
ing a remarkable intrigue. half Ger
man and half bolsheviki, which pre-
cipitatcd fighting between the
Ruthenians and the Poles. Austria
had intended to put Lemberg at the
mercy of the Ruthenians who were
supported by nondescript peoples
calling themselves Ukranians. Five
or six thousand Ruthenians, who had
been concentrated against Lemberg,
seized the public buildings on Nov.
5, except the railway station. Docu-
ments subsequently captured show
the extent of German intrigues to
keep the poles out of Lemberg, but
a remarkable thing happened.
Four boys attacked Ruthenian
soldier with fists, captured his motor
car and drove to the munition de-
pot, treated the Ruthenlan sentry the
same way and seized q stock of re-
volverS and made off. Other boys
joined until sixty-four boys, mostly
Is and 16 years old, had barricaded
themselves in the schoolhouse, also
making raids on the depots and
seizing weapons. They made a des
perate fight and established other
sentries until a hundred boys sailed
out into the streets, women clothed
as soldiers joining them. The
Ruthenian army was an undisciplined
mob and got worse in the fighting
which spread all over the city until
the boys scored their first big victory
by capturing machine guns from the
bolsheviki wing of the Ruthenians.
Where the Ruthenians Were in con-
troll, there was much cruelty. The
boys continued to capture stores and
arms, and to extend their control
finally capturing the postoffice. The
fighting lasted many days, being
some times severe in the streets.
Nov. 81, 500 Polish soldiers arrived.
expelled the Ruthenians from the
citadel and compelled their final re-
treat.
