 Italian Signs in Austria.
 Al Cormons all Austrian village on the road, the signs above the shops were all in Italian, showing the Ital- ians were right in the claim that all 'his section was racially Italian. At this town, too was statue of the Archdukc Maxmilian which had iust passed through queer experience. Some Italian soldiers passing through the town had seen the statue, and not being familiar with MaXmilian they AaG taken it for the great GenOse naVigG,ci, Christopher Columbus. With ;.no ltd,i@n fclTor they had decorated Il" StetGC. and there stood MaXmilian With garlands aboUt his neck placed the.e ty Italian soldiers.

 Business as Usual.
 As we passed through the town of Lucnco. fai-out suburb of Gorizia, it was seen to be half destroyed. Along the main street ran rows of battered buildings, with walls half down and shell holes making ugly gasnes. But business was going on, men were at the cafes and women and girls strollcd the street unconcerncdly. Now the automobile turned up the steep side of Padgora hill. one of the outer Gefenses of Gorzia, where bloody hand-to-hand fighting occurred One could sec the old trench and wire sys- tenn, now grass grown. All this hill had been swept bare by shellfire, but nature had kindly obliterated the scars and the hillside was again smil- ing with it's Verdure The sound of 1 firing had now increased to an Omin- ous roar as we passed Padgera hill.
 Turning the corner of q shattered wall. we saw the lson2o river lying ahead and on the further side GoriZia rising in terraces with the huge bat dement's of the citadel towering on the right. The river looked about the width of the Potomac at Washington, but with swfter current from the mountain feeders. Along the edge of i the river ran rows of shell-torn walls with gaping windows, This whole water front had been torn to pieces and yet many of the demolished rem pants of the buildings were occupied and work along the river. wharves was proceeding.

 Headquarters of the Italian Army, Northern Italy, Dec. o.--Gorizia is q symbol. "On to Gorizia," was the cry of the duke of Oosta's soldiers as they pressed through the little town of Lucinico q few months ago, fighting their way down to the IsonZo river then across the western bridge lead- ing to the city, when the cry changed to "Gorizia at last"
 Then, a week ago. this was reversed when the overwhelming invading force of Austro-Germans took up this same cry. ''On to Gorizia," pressing down from the north, across the northern bridge to the city, and end ing with "Gorizia at last"
 Thus Gorizia has become symbol of the huge change which has occur red within the last ten days. It was one of the furthest points forward on the Italian line, the center of vas, arc of fighting front stretching from ; Plezzo, far in the north, down to the Adriatic at Montefalcone, and it was the most populous and important city In the great crescent of territory which the Italian army has sliced off southwestern Austria some six hun dred square miles in all. And SO Gorizia was symbolic of that entire region which has twice changed hands in this war and of the furthest ad- vance in the first Italian campaigns.
 l visited Gorizia just nine days ago and saw the city on the eve of it's agony, It.. was the last visit made there by anyone outside the military hofn .,f the great Austro- German offensive all ready had commenced, though for the moment it was taken for a spasmodic renewal of the cannonadc which has been going on for weeks. Within 2i hours the enemy had crossed the lsonzo, fifteen miles further north, turned the Italian left wing. beaten back the second army under General Capello. threatened to envelope the third army under the duke of Aosta, brother of the king of Italy. and put in execution that gigantic hammer stroke by which they hoped to finish Italy and cripple the whole entente.
 Roads Clear of Troops.
 The visit was made by invitation of the Supreme Command with d staff editor from headquarters as escort. As we sped along the road in the big army auto l noted there were no troops along the road and bordering fields as one sees approaching Verdun or in the Somme or Flanders. This absence of troops in the rear was part of the system adopted, it was ex- plained All the reprovisioning of the army was done at night, and the roads were left clear by day most of the time.
 Ten miles out we crossed the ltal- ian-Austrian frontier and entered Austria. The frontier was marked by an empty river as the mountain cur rent had run dry. There were scrub trees along the banks and our escort noted the strange tact that bears were quite numerous in these parts and back to the Julian Alps. Near the frontier bridge was party Of sol diers going home for two weeks leave; they looked very happy and

the mastery of Trieste. To the enemy the time had come when he must act before the Italians played their final card and hold the jewel of the Adriatic.
 "Sometl,ing Going to Happen." As we bored over the map the in- creasing roar of the artillery told that the enemy was losing no time in hi1 part of the military game. The pro- prictor of the cafe was an intelligent old man, and I asked him if the fire we heard was the same as usual He shook his head ana said: "No. it IS very much heavier and it seems as though something was going to nap ren." This was the instinctive feel ing of the people or the spot who had gone. through this day after day for months. They felt the blow coming.
 On the corner there were two "om- en of the working class talking to- gether under an umbrella, for it was raining hard. Their indifference to the sheiling seemed strange, and l stopped to ask them il the bonlbard- ment did not frighten them and keep them awake at night.
 They were puzzled fora a moment, as though not comprehending such an inquiry. And then they shrugged their shoulders
 "We are used to it. they said. Ut used to frighten us al first, and the children still cry at night. But what can we do.'
 These were typical towns-women, who had got haibituated to the danger and destruction all around them, and were now stopping on the street cor ner in the rain to exchange the latest gossip. One of the women had the features Of an Austrian and she smiled as she heard the rumble of the Austrian guns and looked off to- ward the enemy lines so near.
 Within three hours when we got back 10 headquarters, the full force of the blow had been struck and the great Austro- German offensive against Italy Was in full operation.

THE OLD STUFF"

Austria has asked for a conference
between warning nations. a conference
Of mere talk which shall not be bind
ing to be held in a neutral country.
The hands may be the hands Of the
Austrian Esau but the voice is the
voice OF the German Jacob. Germany is
feeling out the temper of the allies
again. Washington Classics it the
same old stuff" Without doubt Austria
would welcome peace on almost any
terms that would leave the monarchy
intact but Austria is not a free agent
She is simply a German messenger boy
paging the nations with a fake propo-
sition.
THE heads l win tails You lose" pro-
posal will receive small consideration
from the allied nations. An armistice
now would be the veriest folly if it
were not better termed a crime. If
Austria is breaking she should be
smashed like an egg. Germany should
not nave rest Or Urea thing time. Il
the Austrian appeal suggested nothing
else it would suggest that now is the
time to put on the pressure.
But it docs suggest more. It comes
when Germany. is desperately striving
to hold her own frontiers and indicates
that Germany sees defeat ahead and
desires to argue propaganda of peace
to her own benefit; on the eve OF a
bond sale in America which might be
slowed down and embarrassed by a
camouflage Of immediate peace; when
millions OF Americans are preparing to
follow the hundreds OF thousands
who fiattened out the st. Mihiel
salient in days work and hold Metz

pacfists to get busy; anything to slow

THEY HAVE BEATEN THE CAN AIRY.

The government has refused TO rN
a price on cotton though prices are
fixed on wheat and on sugar.
But the government fixed the price
on cotton yarn. 1t fixed the price at
80 cents pound on June i to hold
until October /.
Meantime cotton has gone up to So
cents. No price Is fixed on the raw
cotton. Raw cotton is uncontrolled
The price of cotton yarn is fixed at
80 cents
A peculiar situation, is it not The
way out Will probably be to raise the
price of cotton yarn as President Will
son replied to the protest of the cot
ton growers against any regulation of
prices of the raw product voiced by
William Harris. a candidate for the
United States senate from Georgia,
virtually placing himself on record
that cotton would not be regulated.
But wheat and sugar are regulated.
The mills have government contracts,
which the government is demanding
deliveries upon. The mills also have
contracts with yarn dealers and are
rambling yarns. The yarn men are
refusing to fill the contracts at a loss
of more than eight cents a pound due
to a fixed price on a product of IA "
material left to its own dreams of pro-
fteering.
And there they are, the desperate
mills, the more desperate yarn dealers
and the cotton growers content and
smiling like the cat which had eaten
the canary.
Why should the sta pies of the North
be fixed in price and cotton be uncon-
trolled? Rather why should not the
price Of raw cotton be fixed as is the
price Of wheat?
