Seek Others Approval.

We may now hope that other ma
lions, following Italy's example, will
publicly recognize the ACKNOWLEDGMENT
of Austria-Hungary as a major war
aim. The effect Of this declaration by
the Italians will be marked both on
the Austro-Hungarian peoples and
the army.
1t is not generally known that the
Czecho-Slovaks have been withdrawn
trian commanders. There was no
warning sign. Desertions to the 1tal-
ians had been frequent but scarcely
more SO than usual. Then one day
the Itdffans noticed that the Czecho-
slovaks opposite them had simply
that they had been sent into the in
terror Of the country because they
were no longer considered trust
worthy by their commander.
First Fruit of Recognition.
This is the first fruit of the allied
recognition of the Czecho-Slovak ma
tionality, but also of the long and
persistent propaganda carried on by
Especial groups of CZecho-Slovaks
lighting on our side. This abstraction
of the Czecho-Slovaks deprives the
Austrians of certain forces. The army
still remains that element in the dual
monarchy least affected by discomfort
and rebellion. Yet should disaffection
in the ustro-Hungarian ranks spread
tomorrow to the Jugo-Slavs, namely,
the Slovenes, Croats and Bosnians, the
effect on the dual monarchy would be
disastrous.
Today we see that certain ideas are
greater than the men who hold them,
for once started they cannot be re-
strained.

VENICE. Italy, September &c (de-
layed).-The declaration of the Ital-
| ian government in favor of an indie
pendent Jugo-Slav government has
finally been published. The decision
taken on September was universally
known, but the censors prevented
comment. I learned of it on the 18th
and endeavored repeatedly to commu-
nicate the fact with an explanation
The reticence of the government was
due to it's desire to withhold publica-
ton from a sense Of delicacy until it
was certain Of the opinion of the al
lied governments.
Now the censors permit me to say
that this decision comes as a great
democratic victory, over which all the
liberals among the allies should re-
joice. The so-called campaign Of the
Corriere Della Sera and other demo-
cratic papers has had complete sue
cess. The strictly nationalist, skep-
teal conservative elements response
BILE for the former attempt to restrict
the Italian war aims in terms Of a
barnyard dispute have been thorough
ly routed.

Spectacular Feature
to N. Y. Steeplechase

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y, Aug.
10-The steeplechase over the full
course in which only Robert Oliver,
Reddest and Early Light engaged, re-
suited in one of the most spectacular
affairs ever seen in a race of this des-
cription. There was no untoward in
cident of the trio's running until they
came to the Liverpool, opposite the
clubhouse at which point Reddest,
the leader, bolted, to be followed in
quick succession by Early Light and
Robert Oliver. Allen, in his effort to
prevent Robert Oliver from boiling,
wheeled him so sharply that he was
thrown out of the saddle and landed
on Early Light, but his quick presence
of mind enabled him to practically
jump back into the saddle of Robert
Oliver, which had stayed close to
Early Light. Allen quickly wheeled
Robert Oliver back into the course
without losing much ground, but al
most caused the fall of his mount by
too close take-off from the hedge.

PLEASURE AUTO
MAKERS ORDERED
TO DO WAR WORK
Must Convert Industries Into
100 Percent War Work,
War Board Orders.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-Manufac-
turers of passenger automobiles were
advised by the War Industries board
Friday to convert their plants to 100
per cent war work as rapidly as pos
sible and to place them on that basis
not later than January 1,1919, in a
letter addressed to the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce.
In no other way, the letter stated,
coulr they be assured Of the contin-
uance of their industry or the pre-
servation Of their organizations.
The letter was in response to a
proposal made Thursday by Hugh
Chalmers, on the part of the manu-
facturers voluntarily to curtail the
passenger car industry so per cent.
The War Industries board declared
that the present situation regarding
steel and other materials needed for
war work gave little assurance of ma
terial required for the manufacturer
of passenger automobiles, even after
providing for war requirements.
Pending receipt Of the board of
sworn inventories of materials an
hand requested last July 16, no ma
terials will be permitted passenger
car manufacturers. the letter states.

PEELED the allies to pay a commensur-
ated price for their gains.
Day by day dispatches have told the
story Of the hard fighting in this hill
and valley region where belts Of for
est crown wheat fields and hills slope
to creeks and ravines. There were
roads, entertainments and natural de-
fences everywhere, making perfect
fighting ground and every village was
fought for. The salvage dumps &C
cumulating behind the allied lines tes-
tify to the size of the enemy effort
and the greatness of his hopes, but
extensive as they are, they do not
amount to fraction of that which he
destroyed during the slow move back
ward toward the Aisne.
Felt Russian Collapse.
In this fighting, the allied powers
felt the first physical effect of the
downfall Of Russia Much of the war
material which has fallen into allied
hands was that supplied to Russia by
the allies in happier days. Officers
who inspected the dead and question
ed the prisoners, say that the German
clothing was of good quality, that the
arms were in excellent condition and
that the rations taken from the dead
and wounded as the allies advanced
were plentiful and nutritious.
The effect Of the Amiens success on
the Soisson-Rheims situation is yet
problematical, but the best belief is
that it will accelerate the enemy's
withdrawal and possibly determine
him to make a stand behind the Aisne,
where his heavy artillery already is in
place instead of holding the belt be-
Many oldtime knitting machines
have been dragged from the garnet to
do duty in the present emergency.
