March, chief of staff of the Ameri-

which they have conducted them
selves in action. He said that they

large guns from the enemy and
brought them all back to the rear
of the fighting line in army trucks
under heavy fire, beating back all
efforts of the enemy forces to re-
take the guns.

received this summer and which is
being assembled at the Commission
yards for work on the Nenana-Fair-

rus steam shovel. This work was
halted temporarily some time ago
to permit of work on the loco
motive being rushed.

Chief of Staff of American Army
Gives Interesting News Item
Regarding the War.

WASHINGTON, D. General
March, chief of staff of the Ameri-

over million and half Americans
have embarked up to date for active
service abroad.
The situation on the Western
front is very decidedly in favor of
the Allies, he said.
He also said that the stories con-
corning the great unpublished Amer
lean casualty lists are absolutely
false, as all casualties resulting from
the operations in which our troops
have been engaged, have been pub
lished as soon as such reports have
been received from the front.

RUMANIAN JEWS ASK
PRESIDENT FOR AID

LONDON.-The Jews of Rumania
have cabled request to the Ameri-
can Zionist Organization to petition
President Wilson to bring his in
fluence to bear against the enact
ment by the Rumanian parliament
of contemplated laws which, they
say, will result in depriving them
of the few remaining rights still
left to them.
The proposed laws provide that
naturalization shall be denied to any
person both of whose parents have
not been born in Rumania. This,
they assert would prevent at least
two-thrids of the Jews of Rumania
from receiving naturalization papers.
These laws are to be enacted in
accordance with the terms of the
German peace treaty.
