the others. The Americans soon had the
damaged engines in operation.
The equipment includes many miles OF
tracks, with great stacks Of unlaid rails
and steel ties All along the front these
one man engines are darting here and
there on tracks laid by the Germans. and
also upon new trackage set UP by the
Americans, which connects with the va
rious German systems.
Hundreds of small fatcars alse were
captured. and the Americans are using
gasolene which they found In the Ger
man supply station. The Americans had
little difficulty in solving the mechanism
OF the German engines, and they were
ready for operation when the shell torn
tracks were repaired. Narrow gauge
fiatcars, which came from the United
States, also are being used over the
German rails. They are twice as long

special Despatch TO TIE SuN.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 22--President
Wilson'S conference on Friday at the
White House with Prof. T. F. Masaryk
OF the Czecho-Slovaks National Council.
Ignace J. Padsrewski of the Polish Ma
tional Committee, DR.. H. Hinkovich Of
the Jugoslav Council and other repre-
sentatives Of the oppressed nationalities
OF Austria Hungary marked the clos
ing of one of the most important de-
velopments of the present war period.
namely the unifcation of the oppressed
nationalties within the dual monarchy.
1t was the climax Of a series of con-
ferences which have been held in WASH
. ington during the last two weeks, and
reached as to the correct attitude to be
followed by the Poles and Czechs in
Austria and also the Poles and Czeciio-
Slavs in general. In addition the for
tunes OF the Jugoslavs have been coma
sidered. and the three great groups
which arc now engaging the attention
OF the Allies have agreed upon a pro-
gramme of aims
"Hang Together or Separately"
The Importance OF a complete under
standing as to the attitude of the Poles
in Austria can be appreciated when 1t
is remembered that while territorially
the Polish occupancy in Austria is con-
siderably smaller than that of the
Czechs. in the Austrian Parliament
the Polish substantially hold the Balance
of power and their parliamentary atti-
tide Is OF great Importance.
The Slavs in central Europe. in short,
have adopted the saying of the Ameri-
can patriot that IL they do not all hang
together they are liable to hang sep
arately. Their unification plans in
clude harmonizing the various groups
in their relations within the United
States and for the most complete sup
port OF American war activities and
aims.
German PrOpagandists Fooled.
The mere possibility of creating
classes between these peoples has al
ready attracted the attention of the
German propagandists in the United
States. the aim having been to create a
division OF sentiment. For some months
now an active drive has been on against
the Poles in the United States with the
idea of creating confusion and conflict
of authority which would help to open
the way for the German agents.
That certain we'll meaning Americans
have unwittingly been drawn into this
work has not helped matters Inas-
much as the whole programme for a
free Bohemia and free Jugoslavian ma
ton depend absolutely on the creation
OF a free Poland II Is easy to see the
reason of this special German drive
against the Poles.
Mr. Paderewski. however. was able to
assure the President that these efforts
had failed and that the Poles were
now soidly united behind American
war aims as enunciated Out OF this
gathering and other conferences 1t Is
likely there will be created a new CEN
trail body of the central European
groups. which will protect the inter-
ests If ali affiliated bodies.

ever, convinced that the overwhelming
majority of the German people have
nothing in common with these indus
trious political agitators. There are az
suredly many things regarding which a
serious word must be spoken to the
Government but we can only follow
with suspicion the attempt to utilize the
present position to extend the rights OF
Parliament. We are confident the Cen
tire party will throw its entire weight
into the scale to guarantee that purely
patriotic work is now done by the
Reichstag."
