NUT MARK SHOES WITH COST AND
 SELLING PRICE
Maximum Selling Price,
 However, To Be Fixed. One Of Three Classes to Be
 Stamped On Every Pair

The action of the state council of de- the resolution. passed on August 15, re- quiring retail merchants to display both cost and sales price on all goods sold at retail. was taken for the pur- pose of allowing more time in which to obtain additional information and data from the various departments of the national government that have to do with merchandising. as well as from other states as to what methods have been found most effective in eliminat ing profiteering and whether the plan outlined in the resolution would be considered fair and practicable by the various governmental departments and others experienced in merchandising.
 Fix Only Maximum Price
 The state council is now in receipt of informttion from Arthur ". Mac Mahon, assistant chief of the federal agencies section of the council of na tiOnal defense, in reference to the plan for fixing price for shoes. MT. Mac Mahon states that this plan fixes a maximum price for shoes, but it divides shoes into three classes and provides that ~-nry shoe sold shall be stamped with the class number. but does not re- quire that each noir should be marked with it's cost and selling price.
 He states further that the hide, leather and leather products division, boot and shoe section of the war indus tries board, advises that the marking of shoes with cost and selling price was taken up and discussed from all angles and judged by everybody to be imprac- ticable.
 Dealers to Sign Pledge Cards
 Mir. MacMal1on also states that the council of national defense now has under consideration with the war in dustries board the use of state and county councils of defense throughout the United States in connection with the shoe program and that it is prob able that every county council will be asked to get in touch with all retail shoe dealers and see that every dealer signs the pledge card which will be is sued in connection with this program.

POWERFUL OEFENSES
IN H|MDENBURG LINE
Masonry of Tunnel of st. Quentin
Canal of Most Formidable and
Approved Pattern.
BACKBONE OF HUN DEFENSE.
Its Loss to Americans and British
Broke the Morale OF the Great Ger
man Armies and ImpeIlcd Retreat.

At the British Front, Oct. AFTER
a personal inspection. the correspon-
dent of Universal Service is able to-
! day to give more details of the intri-
/ cate and powerful defences of the
| Hindenburg line. one of the most
formidable Notifications in that line
was the tunnel referred to in yester-
days dispatch. Each entrance OF
this tunnel was barricaded by blocks
Of thick ferro concrete. Into these
blocks many Sits were cut for ma
chine guns. Other blocks filled the
entire tunnel from the water level to
the roof.
At the south entrance there was a
formidable machine gun nest. Else
where there were machine gun en-
pla cements for enfilading fire. Along
| the open stretch OF the canal huge
barges had been run in for billets and
ammunition stores. AT one point as
many as thirty chambers had been
cut into the walls, connected BY
passa ges.
The enemy apparently chose the
| line of the canal as the natural OBJ
stacle. but there is evidence from
Relicourt to St Quentin that the
| original scheme was not quite mann
! tanned The enemy first chose the
east bank as the main line OF resist
| ance. He had sunk shafts at frequent
| intervals to connect with the dugouts
which would again connect with the
circulating trench running under the
lee of the bank. Behind this, on the
| high ground, was the support line,
Then. perhaps because the dugouts
were filled with water, the enemy
abandoned the bank itself. the shafts
were replaced by small firing stations
with ha rirp LAT iYto frpprh
! The difficulty of the cana! as an
| obstacle was enhanced by wire and
! fallen trees, the stumps OF which
were interlaced with wire All bridges
were mined and the approaches de
| Tended by machine guns.
From January to March the enemy
| worked necessarily on the canal and
the bridges He constructed many
| new roads, tramways and foot bridges.
Little work. however, had been done
4 recently on the lines behind the Hin
denburg line.
The Beaurevoir line. which the
| British succeeded in breaking. was
heavily wired. 1t consisted of front
and support trenches. Behind this
position was the Walincourt- Audigny
! line, where the described works were
merely repeated.
Thus it will be seen that the CO.
operating British and American forces
broke down the hopes of the German
militarists based on four years expe-
rience when they cracked the most
formidable defences the world has
ever known and human ingenuity has
ever conceived.
The smashing of these defences, in
deed changed overnight the whole
order of things on the western front.
The part the Americans played
their dash and resourcefulness
coupled with the work of the cool
ii headed, experienced English and Aus
tralian veterans. will form one of the
greatest chapters of the wars history

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE,
Juno ls.--About 800 German shock
troops raided the American hrst line
positions at the village Of Z!vray, In
the Toul sector. early this morning.
Some OF the enemy got into Zivray
but were soon driven out. In other
points the Germans were badly beaten.
The attack began At s O'Clock in the
morning, after an extremely violent
bombardment of the front limo and OF
American batteries and villages far In
the rear. The Germans advanced
swiftly to the attack. but were met by
a heavy fre. Those who penetrated
Zivray were forced speedily to withdraw
and elsewhere the enemy was completely
repulsed in hard nghting lasting more
than two hours.
According to prisoners. the object OF
the enemy was to take American pris-
oners. This object failed, as no Ameri-
can Il reported missing.
The Gsrmsns evidently angered by
the failure OF the attack. continued an
Intermittent shelling Of tho villages in
tie rear throughout Sunday. Some OF
these points were not less than eight
miles behind the line.
