the ground to the northwest of Sois-
sons does not present insurmountable
obstacles to an army such as it APP
pears Gen. Foch has now welded
into one of the mightiest engines OF
destruction in military history.
These men say that any army
which can overcome a foe number
ing at least 500. 600, fighting on an in
terror line, has the reserve strength
necessary to drive a wedge into the
German line TO the northwest OF
scissors. Should such a maneuver
be accomplished, it is agreed, a Ger
man line of defense on the Aisne
heights would be made at once un-
tenable.
There appears small reason for the
Germans to attempt a great effort to
hold the line on the Aisne. The
strong Chemin-des-Dames line is only
from three to five miles to the north
ward, and by this time all damage
to its communicating lines inflicted
by artillery have been repaired.
Moreover, were the Germans to take
up a position on the Aisne, their lines
OF communication, being for the mos
part unprotected by woods or nat
ural defenses, would be continually
under the devastating fire of the al
lied artillery and airmen.
OF more immediate interest, per.
haps, is the campaign indicated ky
the action of the allied line on The
Rheims front moving across the
Vesle. Much Importance attaches Il
the ability of these troops to push
forward with all speed, since it would
appear that they are offered a rare
opportunity to take many prisoners
and collect great stores Of military
stores and booty.
They are confronted with q higf
rolling terrain, however, and it Is tC
be expected that they will be helt
up in some quarters. They are aidet
in large measure by the advance OF
the Franco-American forces at tht

says:
The beginning Of the fifth year OF

He adds:

BOARD
DECIDES WITH
STEELWORKERS
Settles Bethlehem Strike by
Acceding to Majority
of Demands.

The National War Labor Board
yesterday announced its decision in
the Bethlehem Steel strike case. 1t
administered a complete defeat to the
company. While not granting the full
demands Of labor in wages in all In
stances, It did support all the funda-
| mental propositions for which labor
contended.
The board again applied the pro-
gram outlined for it by the President
at the time of its establishment and
adopted by 1t as Its declaration OF
principles Immediately on its organ
ization. These include recognition of
the right to organize. collective bar
gaining, the basic eight-hour day,
equal pay for equal work and the lfv-
ing wage.
Gives Right to Organise.
The War Labor Board ordered
organize and to bargain collective
ly; that the bonus system, now Sc
intricate that even the board itself
shall be amended or done away with
and that a minimum wage shall be
established in conformity with a
scale now being applied by the War
or Navy department.; that the eight

time and a half for overtime. and
double time for Sundays and holi-
days, and that piece workers shall
ut A,ynrfft,n O
and holiday work; that men and
women alike shall receive the same
wage for the same work.
The revision of the piece work
system is to be made by a commit
tee representing the plant manage
ment, the workers themselves and
manent board of conciliation to in
ences is established, three repre-
workers, three by the management
and a chairman to be named by the
Secretary of War.
Wage Increases.
Wage increases were granted tc
electrical workers. First-cIass electrt'
clans are to draw e7li cents an hour

will be fixed by collective bargain

100000 MEN
BY new DRAFT
WARRIORSSAY
Boys Is to 20 to Be Train
ed Here-Biggest Reserve
|. Army Ever Known.

An army Of 100000 fighting men
will be one result Of the extension
of the draft ages, in the opinion OF
War Department officials.
This is the minimum figure and
il means that every man of the
seven millions will be OF the type
and physique OF those now on the
battle front in France.
Military men believe the class OF
ls to 20 will yield 100000 young men;
from the class of q to 81, the country
has already taken 100000 youths OF
the best soIdierly material in history.
almost half of whom are now In
France. and the class Of 81 to q
is set down for another 2,oo0.ooo men.
Under the present plans. which pro-
vide that the boys of from IS to 20
shall be trained here. the United
States will have the largest reserve
army that the world has ever seen.
IIIimitabIe Possibilities.
In one respect the tremendous
figures recall President Wilson's in
terrogatory answer" with reference
to the army, when he said: why
limit it to 5000, ,OOo?" For they mean
that the possibilities Of our army
are practically without limit. The
100000 could be increased to eight,
nine, ten, eleven or even 100000.
One War Department estimate fixes
1s. 900. 900 men as to the number who
will register, providing the exten-
sions are approved in the present
form. Through comparison, based on
the number of men registered in the
various States at the time ofs the
first draft, an estimate has been OBJ
tained of the state quotas in the
new draft.

/. He. FINALLY
SUBMITS TO
SHERMAN LAW
Last of the Trusts Dismisses
Appeal-Plans Immedi-
ate Dissolution.

The International Harvester Com
pany, the last of the big business
combinations involved in the trust
busting suits Of the government to
hold out on appeal, has finally
agreed to dismiss its appeal and to
come into court to arrange plans for
! dissolution.
This course has been pointed for
some months, but the laws delay
and the tenacious stand of the Har-
vester Company against dissolution
on the ground that a national and
international combination was the
logical business attainment and bene-
fitted the public as much as 1t did the
company, has worked to drag this
suit along after the others have been
settled.
Not a Surrender.
The basis for the settlement of this
suit is in no sense a surrender on
the part of the government On the
other hand, 1t sustains the contention
Of the government on which the de-
cree of the district court was based,
adjudging it a combination in re-
straint Of trade and ordering its dis
solution. The effect of the settle
ment will be to leave the decree of
the district court as the final decree
in the case.
After the Harvester Company has
withdrawn its appeal the two parties
to the suit will then join in asking
the district court to enter an order
to carry the decree into effect.
Raises Fundamental Issue.
1t was stated today at the Depart
ment of Justice that this case pre-
sented the most fundamental issue
which has arisen under. the Sherman
act since its coEstitutionality was de-
termined. That issue was that the
government contended that eombina-
tons Of competitive units on a scale
large enough to make the resulting
construction of competition direct and
substantial, are unlawful. on the
theory that 1t was not the policy of
the Sherman act, to wait until the
evils of undue concentration of COM
mercial power have already come to
pass. but rather to strike at once at
undue concentration of commercial
power itself. .
Among the contentious of the de-
fendant company the chief one in the
eyes OF the government was that such
comoinations are not unlawful unless
the government goes further and
shows In each particular case that the
combination has wrongfyly used its
power, as. for example. BY unduly en-
nancing prices, by unduiy limiting the
quantity or lowering the quality or
product. by unduly lowering wages.
etc. The essence of the defense was
that monopolistic combines. are not
unlawful so long as they use their
power benevolently. and now that the
Harvester Company has accepted a
decision opposed to this contention. a
precedent Is set for future interprcta-
tion Of the sherman act as related
to moncpoliea

said that many members of the mis-

Although il is the expectation Of
oficials that the economic mission
will play a major part in the aid
which the United States and Japan
contemplate. great interest at
taches here to the probable course
which the military phase of the pro-
gram may develop. Among military
men the question of the nationality
