WOOL FOR CIVILIANS
MAY Be IMPORTED
Government Trying to Get
Ships to Bring Supply From
South America.

WARRINGTON, Oct. 16.-Civilian wool
filled by importauons from South Amer
lea. This was made known to-day by
a high official of the War Industries
Board. He said the Government IL try
ing to make arrangements with this end
in views-as 1t is regarded as absolutely
essential that a certain amount OF wool
be provided to meet civilian needs.
"It is absolutely necessary" this OFF,
cial said. that there be sufficient wool
to make garments to keep everybody In
the country warm and properly clothed,
Just as II Is necessary to provide fuel
and food for the civilian population"
Until this statement was given out 1t
had been the general impression that
there was sufficient wool in the hands Of
manufacturers In the form Of piece goods
to provide for actual necessities OF
civilians Tho statement indicates other
wise.
The principal obstacle In the way OF
the wool importations Is said to be the
lack OF ships. 1t IL proposed to over
come this handicap SO far as possible
By using wooden boats, which are better
suited to this trade than they are TO
overseas commerce.
Belief that a certain amount Of wool
will be released for civilian consumption
In the near future is gaining among
those who are in a position to know Of
the vast amounts that are being piled
UP under present restrictions. Reduced
requirements OF the army have helped
materially to increase the stocks Of wool
on hand, It Is pointed out, and the
danger of deterioration In such stocks Is
we'll known. The wool is said to be ac-
cumulating faster than 1t can be ware
housed.

fSee Irving National Bank.
Norwich bulletin., 1918-06-04

Although it cannot be said that the Germans in their new offensive have been definitely stopped, there is, new ertheless, a marked diminution in the speed with which they started out, and their gains since Saturday have been relatively small when compared with those of previous days.
 And, according to the accounts of unofficial observers, wherever they have been able since inc stiffening of the allied lines to attain new posi- tions, an exorbitant price in lives has been exacted from them. So great have been the casualties that the Prus- sian guards division, the pride of the German crown prince-is declared to have been withdrawn from the battle.
 Particularly hard fighting again has been in progress between Soissons and Chateau IT. erry. where the Germans are erdeaVoring to push further for ward toward Paris, but not alone have the French. troops nearly everywhere successfully withstood the, onslaught but on several sectors themselves have taken the initiative and gained ground.
 As a whole the situation along this line is relatively unchanged The Ger man war office at last has admitted the allied line on the west has been re-
 inforeed by fresh units but it asserts | they have not been able to hold the positions to which they were assign l ed Nevertheless the. fact is potent | from an observation of the war maps ! that nearly everywhere in this region i the German line for the moment at {, least, is being hard held.

France, was the New York and attacked last Sunday night 125 miles of Sandy Hook. The fate of her 125 passengers and crew of 130 who took to the boats when shells began to fall about the vessel was unknown late tonight but there are hopes that they have been picked up by some passing ship or would reach shore safely.
 The crews of the schooners sunk were saved.
 Scores of U. $. warships were SCOUT ing the waters off the north Atlantic coast tonight in search of the submar- ines.
 It was learned authoritatively that no attacks have been made on Am erican transports off the coast All ships were held in ports along the coast, however, as a precaution There were reports that as many as fifteen vessels had fallen prey to the raiders but there was no particulars given. An s.
