AVIATORS ACTIVE
ON TOUL FRONT
with tn. American Army in France,

With the American Army in France.
June l.
There was much aerial activity all
day yesterday on the Toul front and
number of German machines were forced
to withdraw earthward, but whether or
not they were actually shot DOWN was
not ests blished.
Lieuterant Douglas Campbell, of
Mount Hamilton. Cal, the new ace, and
a number of other pursuit pilots were
out early protecting American photo
graphing machines. Campbell sighted
one big enemy two-seater in the dis
tanee and raced for II and finally scored
a victory
The battle lasted twenty minutes and
then Campbell noticed that when he
closed in the German observer did not
fire his machine gun. He was standing
up in his machine watching the Amer
lean and it was obvious that he did not
have any more ammunition. Campbell
tried TO signal the German to surrender,
but the latter darted away homeward.
The American pilot sailed up close and
got on the tail" trying to force the
German down. Seeing the German was
getting nearer home all the time, Camp
bell poured in q stream of bullets from
his machine gun and the enemy quickly
diyed earthward

London. June i.
TIE Germans have reached the right
bank of the River Marne on a ten
mile front, according to statement by
the British general stan. which has been
given to press associations.
The statement says that the Germa ms
have not yet entered Chateau Thierry.
an important railway junction forty five
miles from Paris. but that they are at
tacking heavily there and to the north
ward. The announcement. which is sa id
to express the opinion Of the general
staff. continues:
The main German offensive has been
directed toward Chateau Thierry and
Dormsns. They already have captured
Soissons. and yesterday they, extended
their attack northwest to Noyon and
forced the French back, so that the
line now runs almost straight from
Noyon to Soissons.

The situation has not reached its

The most largely-attended meeting OF
the Republican City Committee was
held last night at headquarters, No. $40
King street. Following consideration
OF routine business, Chairman Isaac w.
Bowers called upon former Judge Dan
iel o. Hastings to address the commit
tee.
Declaring 10 as his belief that all
should stand by the President in
bringing the war TO a successful end
ing with victory, Mr. Hastings read eX-
tracts from the Congressional Record
showing that Democratic members OF
Congress were divided in their support
OF President Mckinley in 1898, and were
divided IN their support Of President
Wilson's war aims at the outset OF the
present war.
"The Republicans in Congress have
stood by the President declared Mr.
Hastings. land have rendered more
loyal support than the Democratic
party.
IA loyal support OF the government
at this time does not mean that we
should return Democratic majority ir
either house Of Congress, nor does II
mean that the shortcomings Of the ad'
mlnistration shall not be discussed in {
patriotic way.

A nation OF war makes three distinct
demands on its individual citizens
sacrifice. service. and economy
All sacrifice. Some sacrifice their own |
lives or lives dear TO them in actual
military service; others sacrifice ma
terial prosperity, and all sacrifice
personal comforts and pleasures which
seemed the necessities OF peacetimes.
Sacrifice is easy because all meet II
together and each is aware OF the
participation OF others.
All serve. Most forms OF service IN
volve group activity, whether II be In
the army. in Red Cross OF other phil
anthropic work, or In active Industrial
service. no individual grudges service
because all individuals give II.
But economy Is harder. Economy Is
the most personal and the most DIM
cult form OF patriotism. Il is hard
Il is monotonous. II Is unspectacular
and involves all the nrm qualities de-
manded by sacrifice and service with.
out the inspiration OF cooperation and
RECOGNITION. We serve and sacrifice
together; we economlze alone.
The family Is the primary and most
Important social group, and In Amer
lca as the result Of custom, the wo-
man head OF the household is the dis
burser OF funds-the spender or the
family income.
Here Is one Of the newest and best
definitions OF economy which the
housewife would do well 20 ponder
Economy Is not the cessation OF
spending. Rather II is the elimination
OF those fanclful and wssteful expendi-
lures which add 10 the cost OF living
without adding 10 its Joys"
The immediate result OF eliminating
the cost OF non-essentials is the ap-
pearance OF a surplus fund, safety
margin for use when emergency shau
produce an essential not otherwise
provided for.
For instance. IN peace times we con-
sumed lve pounds of sugar per per
SON each month. At war prices tnat
sugar cost 50 cents Now we are re-
duced 10 a sugar ration OF two POUNDS
each month-an involuntary saving OF
3o cents. That surplus 30 cents saved
and moi simply diverted TO another ex-
pense channel represents real econoins, l

To the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL:
Sir: l do not feel that would be

words in condemnation Of the repairs
being made TO Washington bridge. The
writer has walked across the bridge
twice almost every day for the last
twanty years and has observed Its
weakening by decay and neglect. HaV-
lug some little knowledge OF structural
engineering, l have had considerable
anxiety as to what might happen at
any time. There was a great differ
cnce OF opinion at the time the street
car company asked permission to lay
their tracks over the bridge as TO the
stability and strength OF The structural
iron work, etc, and when permission
was finally given, IL was a long time
before residents Of Washington Heights
felt altogether at east on account OF
having read so much of the discussion
nro and con as TO the safety Of the
bridge. The writer has always remem-
bereG an old colored man, who had evil
dently read or heard much about the
