PETE HERMAN BEST
OVER LONG ROUTES

New York, Aug. lo-Pete Herman.
champion Of the bantam-weightk. n
not a short-distance battler.
The little lad from the Cresoeuf
City proved this fact recently In an
eight-round bout at Jersey 'Oty
against Frankie Burns, the eieyer
''Skeeter'' bantam.
The Jersey bugs were disappointed
because Burns failed 70 relieve Her
man Of the title by knocking him out,
but they had the satisfaction Of See
ing their favorite win by q oonforta-
bic margin. Burns fought all aroNnd
Herman In practically every ons of
the eight rounds. rsg
He was the aggressor all the way
and he made Herman hunt his nfer
in at least six Of the eight rounds,
but he could not put across the punch
that would have made him king of
the banties. for Herman % q ruered
youth with one Of these cast-irDn

 This possible retirement of the Germans is believed to be due to the menacing position of the Americans at the adge .of the Kriemhilde line below Landres- et-st. Georges, where General Pershing's men are steadily advancing.
 The Germans early this morning launched counter attack upon tho American positions in La Grande Mo natgne The attack was repulsed.
 The German infantry attack was pre- ceded by a heavy artillery fire.

 HAS BEEN REMOVED

Birmingham people who have denied themselves the pleasures of automo- billing on Sundays during the last month or six weeks in compliance with the request of the United States fuel ad- ministration, may "joy ride" to their hearts content today. The ban on gas less Sundays was lifted two or three days ago by the fuel administration, and official notice of the release order was received by Secretary A. W. Nelson of the Jefferson coiunty fuel committee yesterday morning.
 The notice came from State Fuel Ad- ministrator s. F. Kennedy of Anniston, and merely stated that the observance of the gasless Sunday having resulted in the accumulation of sufficient reserve stock of gasoline to meet the present demands, the ban on Sunday automobiles had been removed,

Allies Are Opposed to
 the Proposed Issue of
 Chinese Gold Currency

Peking, Wednesday, October 16.-(By the Associated Press)-The British, French and Russian ministers today mo- tified the Chinese government that Chinas assumption that the countries represented by the ministers had ex- pressed satisfaction with the proposed gold currency issue was altogether wrong. The ministers strongly empha-
 sized the objections of their respective countries.
 The American government, although t did not associate it's memorandum with that of the other ministers, also ex- pressed disapproval of the bond issue. The Japanese government, while it was identified with the original protest, has taken no further action.
 The Chinese government on the sumption that the allies approved of the project has opened negotia tions with
 Japan for 8 loan of S0,0O0,00o yen to fi-
 nance the proposed gold note issue
