TROTZKYS MOVE
PUTS GERMANY IN
ME MT

Washington, Feb. 17.-Offlcial
Washington's opinion of Bolshevik
Foreign Minister Trotzky's decision
for no war and still no peace with
Germany is that Trotzky, whether
knowing it or not has placed Ger
many in a military and diplomatic
predicament.
Movements of German troops from
the Russian front have been stopped,
and it is believed by military men
here that no further withdrawal of
forces can be made until Berlin has
decided on a policy toward the Boil
shevili.
Such official reports as have been
received do not say clearly whether
the rehabilitation of Russian troops
has been continued, but they do indi-
cate reorganization of the red guard
Germany, by repudiating the no.
annexation policy, officials here think.
has widened the breach with the
socialists who cry for peace. They
also think Germany will be forced to
go to the aid of the Ukrainians il fhe
Bolsheviki attack them.

NO VICTIMS.
The hospital, in which were num-
Der of sicl; and wounded officers and
men, was the building nearest the
places where the German airmen
dropped bombs.
Fortunately none Of the missiles
reached their mark, although the hos
pital patients and the residents OF
the town were severely shaken up by
the explosions.
American anti-aircraft guns engaged
the enemy, but without success. The
hospital probably will be moved to
less dangerous spot
Patrol Cut Of.
An American patrol, which passed
the first line OF German entangle-
ments and approached the second line
last night, was suddenly cut off by
current of electricity along the first
wire line.
Instead of attempting an immediate
return to their trenches, which would
have meant certain death by electro
cution or machine gun fire, the Ameri-
cans clung close to the earth and later,
when the electricity was cut off, re-
turned in safety to their positions.

ROUMAMA WILL
FIGHT TO BITTER
END, SAYSENVOY

Chicago, Feb. 17.-Cut off from
every friendly country except by
wireless, Roumania will fight to the
end, DR.. c. Angelescu, head of the
Roumanian mission which reached
here today, declared.
The Bolsheviki are making war on
us, so Roumania now must fight two
enemies-the Bolsheviki and Ger
many" said Dr.. Angeiescu. 1--WE are
cut off from every country-there
are enemies on every side of>us, but
we will never give in. Roumania will
fight to the end no matter what the
cost.
"We entered this war because
100000 of our kinsmen are arbitra-
rily submitted to Austro- Hungarian
domination and we will tight until
they are free. The traitorous action
of the Bolsheviki has made our task
harder, but has not lessened our
determination"
The mission, the first Of its kind
in this country will remain here
tomorrow.

New York, Feb. 17.-Four Saliva

turning from the trenches, their work
being the mending of clothing, prepa-
ration of hot foods and drinks and
similar service.
They left for the front lines at night,

CONGRESS WILL

(By Associated Press.b

Washington, Feb. H,-Urgent
measures-the administration railroad
legislation, the war finance corpora
ton measure and the billion dollar
urgent deficiency appropriation bill
have the right of way in congress this
week.
A lull in the controversy over war
efficiency is in prospect while congress
devotes itself to the legislation desired
at once by the government and also
while further strategic moves are
made with respect to bills for re-
organization of war making ma
chinery.
Disposal of the railroad bill, to
govern operation of the carriers while

Daylight Saving Bill.
Prompt senate passage of the ad-

Final action also is scheduled in

the bill authorizing the shipping board
to spend $50,00O,000 in the emergency

American ond~Ffench Troops NoU Fight
Side by Side Against Their Common Foe
on Field Made Famous by Great Bottle
Urits Confronting Germans in
First Line Trenches Are En-.
joying Experience; Few
Men in Hospitals.

Grand Army Headquarters of the
French Army, Feb. l6-American
and French troops for several days
have been holding the front line
trenches on one of the most famous
battlehelds OF the war, the name Of
which is known throug tout the
world.
The immediate impression gained
in conversation with both French and
Americans facing the enemy side by
side is that the union is not only of
fight forces but of firm purpose to win
victory by mutual aid.
Men Are Too Anxious.
"There is only one criticism to be
made in connection with the Ameri-
cans" said a distinguished French
officer to the correspondent who
spent a day among the Americans
holding the lines.
They are too anxious to get at
grips with the enemy"
American officers confirmed this
declaring that their chief trouble was
to restrain the men.
1t is advisable to designate the
units confronting the Germans, but
all the men are bending their task
and they are anxious to have the peo-
bic at home know they are we'll salts
fed and determined to perform to
their utmost the duties before them.
Tell the home folks that we are
happy to be in the fighting. The
work is hard and trying, but that is
why we are here.
Nothing could induce lis to leave
it until the job is finished and the
Germans are beaten"
Few Hospital Cases.
Such in substance are the express
sions of dozens of the American
troops now on the actual fighting
line.>
As to the health of the men, to,
days record showed that there were
only three sick among the entire
foEee, comprising several thousands
and these arc cases OF MINOR HI
portance.
Every care is taken to provide
ample rations, hot when possible. The
men are fully content with this anc
certainly appear, fit and well. They
have taken to trench and dugout life
as if born to it.
The corresdonpent passed agar

scene of many fearful battles in the
last year. Wild vegetation hides some
of the wounds which have been in
hicted on the earth, but ruined vii

the violence of the long drawn ou
struggle which resulted in driving the

u. s. AVIATORS MUST LEARN
British Expert Outlines Necessity for
Daring Feats by American Cadets
AIR STUNTS FOR OWN GOOD
tBy Associated Press.>

Washington, d. G., Feb. H.-Hair-
raising stunts by student aviators may
seem foolhardy to the casual observ-
or, but they are vital part of the
army hiers' training. Lieutenant
Colonel Charles E. Lee of the British
Royal Flying Corps, declared here to-
day.
TO forbid student aviators to at
tempt these stunts may save a few
fatalities at training camps on this
side said Colonel Lee, but will GER
tainly be the cause of hundreds of
them at the front"
For the last three days Colonel Lee,
head of the British aviation mission
in the United States, has been doing
war tricks in the air over the ma
tional capital to show officials what
the American air fighter must prepare
to do when he flies over the German
lines.
Question Necessity Of Stunts.
Doing the "lmmelmann turn"
the loop the loop" the falling leaf"
and other breath taking feats has
caused many to turn their faces and
gasp.
This demonstration Of what fight
ing man must do in the if, coming at
a time when several student aviators
have been killed at American camps,
raised a question as to whether they
we're really necessary or were only
stunts.
Most emphatically, said Colonel
Lee, they are necessary when the air
man goes into battle, if he expects
to outmaneuver his adversary, slip out
of tight places and become an efficient
fighting flyer.
Moreover, said Colonel Lee, they
are not dangerous provided the pilot
has been trained and knows his ma
chine.
The ability to perform them Is
indispensable, the colonel declared Al
the aviator is TO be, an effective hight
ing factor.
Dangers Of Flying.
"The so-called danger OF flying lie!
not with those who do stunts in the
air, but with those who cannot dc
them.
Unless a pilot can turn his ma
chine any way and every way at any
time in order to maneuver for posi-
ton. all the straight flying in the
world will not help him when he has
to fight.
S"Formation flying is one of th'
most important things of modern da,
flying, but it must be borne in mint
that as soon as formation OF ap
proximately your own strength is me
and general action ensues. it is indl
viduality and capability OF individual
flyers that will win."

Eat More Vegetables, Is
The SLOGAN of Dr.. GeddeS

Many arguments in favor of vege-
tarianism were advanced last night
by Dr.. L. Geddis of Syracuse, Neb.,
who lectured on "Vegetarianism in
the Light of Theosophy The
speaker based his arguments on the
point that the unity of all life is a
fact in nature, and that man has a
responsibility toward the lower
forms of life that is not binding on
the animal nature. Another argu-
nent that was used was the neces-
sity for personal cleanliness and for
purifying the physical body so that
the higher moral and intellectual life
could be lived.
The speaker asserted that the
consumption OF meat produces a'cor-
responding craving for alcohol and
that by becoming vegetarian, many
people have observed that the craving
for liquor disappeared.
