AMERICAN AV|ATORS
BOMB RAILROAD YARDS
IN AUSTRIA
AGAINST DEARER BREAD
Ministry Raised Price to Obtain
Revenue-Martial Law Lifted in
Three Districts.

Zurich, Aug. 16.-Austrian jour
nails, the arrival of which has been
delayed owing to the closing of the
frontier, contain details of the ex-
traordinary irritation of the popu-
lation on account of the increase in
the price of bread, measure which
was introduced b ythe Finance Min
lister solely for the purpose of in
creasing the State revenue by over
1925, 100000. Every Austrian
town has addressed lively protest
to the Ministry, demanding that
this impost shall be shared between
the urban and agrarian populations
The Arbeiter Zetitung says that if
the Minister continues to offend the
population and orders fiscal meas
ures without parliamentary authori-
ty the workin gpeople will not re-
main tranquil.
The same paper publishes an Or
der by the military commander at
Gratz, by whom martial law was
promulgated on May Is in Syria,
Carinthia, and Carniola to combat
deserTions, riots, revolts, anti-mili-
tary agitation and public pillage
Now martial law has been with
drawn in consequence of the con-
tinual and energetic protests by the
Socialist Party and urgent par1fa-
mentary questions.

AMERICANS FINED THEM

Fort Monroe, Va, Aug. 16.-
".Scores of German machine gun
nests hidden in this wood stopped
the advance of our troops but the
American artillery opened so hot
and accurate a fire on them that the
majority of them were silenced;
the infantry then rushed the 9TH
,ers," is oftening the words of an Of
fetal communique from the front in
France.
How to do that little trick is be-
ing taught in the radio school of the
Coast Artillery here. Graduates Of
this school are trained to show the
men bring the heavy or light Amer
lean guns placed several hundred
yards behind the fighting line how
to shell and destroy enemy batter
les, bridges, railroad centers, store
houses, massed bodies of troops and
all the other resources so necessary
and vital to the enemy.
In this work the Americans in
France have won high eommenda-
tion from French as well as Ameri-
can commanders. To accomplish
this there must be accurate ohser-
walton, orrect transmission of the
information back to the artillery
headquarters, calculation Of the
range and direction at which to set
the guns; and the rest is simple.
Observations far behind the enc
my lines are made by airplane. The
aerial observer has wireless send
ing set, and back near headquarters
there is a Radio Sergeant with a
wireless receiving set. AS soon as a
message is received at headquarters
1t is telephoned to all batteries fir-
ing or about to fire on that target.

battery with It's headquarters, and

Much has aldeary been written
