outpost most useful as an offensive

be largely those Of a representative of

For more than thirtynine years Mr..
Smith had been in the service of the
New York Central lines, and he started
in the traditional way Of American rail
road presidents as 81 week mes
senger for the Lake Shore e. Michigan
Southern. For twentythree years he
kept plugging away at various jobs
until he came to New York in 1902 as
general superintendent of the New
York Central g. Hudson River Railroad.
He was elected president Of the New
York Central & Hudson River and Lake
Shore & Michigan Southern at the end
of 1913 to succeed William c. Brown.

Daily Forward'Begins
Pro-Ally Propaganda

Although the Socialist party has not
yet reversed it's St. Louis platform de-
claring against war in general, Abra-
ham Cahan, managing editor of the
New York "Jewish Daily Forward" So
cialist newspaper, announced yesterday
that his publication would Immediately
start a strong pro-Ally propaganda in
it's columns. The action of the paper;
as explained by Mr.. Cahan, is due
largely to the fact that Germany, by it's
invasion of Russia, has shown itself de-
cidedly inimical to the Bolshevik gov
ernment. Inasmuch as the "Dail For
ward" is an ardent supporter Of that
movement in Russia, it feels called on
to fight as vigorously as possible
against all enemies to the Bolsheviki.
In connection with the announce
ment made by Mr.. Cahan, prominent
Socialists declared that it was inevi-
table that the Socialist party soon
would reverse the stand taken at St.
Louis. The present, they declared, was
not the time when it was possible to
hold a halfway position on the ques-
tion of being for or against Germany.

Monroe Doctrine
Prime Minister Asks Amer

Safe From Gern1anism

The Right Honorable William Nor
ris Hughes. Prime Minister of Austria
liza, bespoke the aid of the United
States last night in establishing a
Pacific Monroe Doctrine when the nae
tions gathered at the peace table, He
was the guest Of the executive COM
mittee of the Pilgrims Society. at
dinner at the Union League Club.
No nation realized more kecnly than
Australia, he said, that peace with
the Hohenzollerns was impossible

total casualty list Of 10000 would

if other reasons were lacking, the
necessity of achieving a peace that
would be a guarantee against war.
Relies Upon America
But when the time came for discus
sion, he continued, the Australians
relied upon their fellow freemen of
the Pacific to "stand by her around
the peace table, as we'll as on the field
of battle" The integrity of the myriad
islands, great and SMALL that belted
Australia was so vital, the Prime Min
lister asserted, that an Australasian
Monroe Doctrine in the Southern Pa
cifc was "a matter of life and death"
for the commonwealth. His address,
in part, follows:
For over two years now we have
maintained five divisions of first line
troops, men in the front trenches, in
france and Flanders, besides our
forces in Palestine and Mesopotama.
Australia has played her part in this
war: But she has paid great price
AT Pozleres our casualties in one
week were $4,000. Cur death roll to
date is nearly $4,000; our total list of
casualties nearly 10000. Of the great
army Australia has sent out only 5000
haye been taken prisoner !-47,O 900
killed, over 100000 wounded and 5000
captured! This is not a bad record
for a nation of little over five mill
ions of people.

that this particular item in the mill

be spent for washing and cleaning

"The three salient questions asked
concerning the equipment Of troops"
said Mr.. Olney, "are, first, arc ali our
men now in the service fully equipped? :?
Second, are all men now fully equipped
as they are taken into service? and
IS there reserve supply Of clothing :?
The latest answer from the quarter
masters department Is in the affirma-
tive to all the above questions, the
Massachusetts Representative stated,
and the reserve stock on hand now is
equivalent to n three months supply
both in America and overseas"
Mr.. Olney further said that provi-
sions have been made by the War De-
partment at all tho cantonments to
provide clothing from hand to foot for
the $4,000 men going into the various
cantonments between now and July l.
A provision prohibiting the use Of
stop watches or other speeding I'D
devices in plants where money pro
vided in the bill is spent was adopted
by vote of 63 to So. The House also
adopted an amendment by Representa-
tive Anthony. of Kansas, forbidding

gencies.
Attacks Lewis's Statement
During the debate Representative
Longworth of Ohio, and others con-
demned what they called over-optimis-
tic statements concerning the number
OF American soldiers sent overseas and
the amount of arms and equipment pro-
vided for them. Mr.. Longworth re-
ferred particularly to a statement by
Senator Lewis, of Illinois, at Chicago
that there now are million American
soldiers in Europe.
"The Senator from Illinois is at least
believed to be one of the principal
spokesmen for the Administration, and
| therefore think it proper to ask if
tho figures he quotes are correct" re-
piled Mr.. Longworth
do you believe the figures are incor-
rect ?" asked Representative Sherley, of
Kentucky.

gives information to the public which
is not correct"

WASHINGTON, May 31.-Italy may
not wait for the expected Austro- Hun-

fronting Austria are delaying the en-

by the Italian troops against the Aus
trians were thought to have been in
tended as "feelers'' preparatory to
more extensive activities.

be solved, Italy will not wait for Aus
tria to start her offensive, but will

thorty declared to-day. eve have
munitions and guns sufficient for in
itiating an offensive, but not enough
for carrying on operations through to
final objectives.
'In the German drive now going on,
and which began in March, the English
and French have lost great quantities
Of supplies. There formerly was an
abundance Of stores in England and
France, but how far their losses might
affect the supply of materials for the
Italian front is not yet known. 1t is
a fact, however, that the losses in
France and Flanders make those of
Caporetto sink into insignifcance."
Italy, it is asserted, is ready to be-
gin a drive against Austria whenever
the Entente powers give the word.
