WAS THIS EFFECTIVE
STRATEGY ON PART
OF HUN COMMANDERS

Copenhagen. May 0.-Military
critics in the Berlin press admit they
were surprised by the choice of the
Chemin des Danes for the new Ger
man offensive on the western front
and they declare it is obvious that
the entente allies likewise were sur
prised.
The critics assert that exhausted
English divisions recently were as
signed to the Champagne positions
obviously to permit them to have
needed rest and the commentators
are jubilant over the assumption
that the reserves of General Foch
are far away. The German news
papers give alleged statements OF
British and French prisoners ad-
hitting their surprise was COM
plete.

WAR END ONLY WHEN

is I. w. w. STATEMENT

Chicago, May 30-R. Riddle,
postmaster OF Electra, Texas, tes-
tifying as government witness al
the trial of ne |. w. w. leaders, de-
clared that Stanley J.. Clark. one
OF the defendants, in an anti-war
speech at that town last summer,
asserted that the allies never would
be able to defeat Germany.
The witness also quoted Clark
as saying Liberty bonds would not
be worth one-eighth OF their face
value after the war.
He said that the war would end
only when the socialists shak- hands
across the trenches" Riddle testi-
fed. CLARK told the big street
crowd that when these socialists did
shake hands, the socialists would
have come into power.

WHY PHILIPPINES ARE
LOYAL TO AMERICA
Illustrated by Unusual Incident
When People Were Conquered.

Ann Arbor Mich, May 30-Why
the Philippines are loyal to Amer
ica was told recently at the univcr-
sity of Michigan by Prof. +. de Ia
Cantera OF the University OF the
Philippines. Illustrating the causes
for this loyalty he said:
The conquerors marched trium-
phantly through the streets. while
the vanqushed garrison stood at
salute. | was only ten years old
then, standing with my mother and
sister in the crowd Of spectators
that lined the streets.
Suddenly my mother saw my
father across the street, and. fear
ing he had been made captive, and
was in danger from the strange
soldiers, she grasped my sister and
me by the hands and hurried across
the street, directly in the path OF
the soldiers. She almost ran into
the captain Of one company. Young
as | was | realized that to inter
ferc with the military, especially
victorious military, in such man
ner meant that wrath should de-
scend upon us.
The captain shouted an order
| did not understand. thought ne
meant to shoot us; at least throw
us into prison. But the column
halted. All along the line orders
were given TO each company to halt.
Not man moved until my mother,
my sister and myself had passed in
safety across the street.
Not a civilian was harmed and |
no property was molested. This,
then, is not an account of the oc-
cupation of a Belgian city by the
Germans, as you will have 10 trou-
bic in saying. 1t is the occupation
of Manila by the soldiers OF the
United States.
The Philippines want :ndepend-
ence, but we are willing to wait un-
til the United States is willing to
give it to us. This the United
States has promised to do and we
trust the promises of the United
States because they have always
been kept.

IS taking military training TO help

officers, and have $4,000 men un-

than a week ago, and there was bitter
complaint from shippers. Hogs also
turned lower, though the actual decline
was small.
Bidding for the fancy cattle offered
was at l0@llc, with some shippers
standing out for more Average tops
sold around DC with good cattle at 7@SC
and light cattle at 6@7c. The market
continues TO be oyerrun with small and
light cattle, the farmers evidently weed
ing out everything that does not promise
a handsome profit for wintering.
Some fancy beef cows sold at Zoe or
better, but these were few, average tops
selling generally around S@9c, with good
cows at 6h@7c, ordinary cows at 51s
@6c and Gamer cows at 56D5Hc. jew
ish holidays have cut into the cheap beef
trade to considerable extent, but buy
ers say that the prevailing epidemic has
hurt the trade tremendously
Bulls were in heavy supply, especially
for light and immature stock. Only a
few fancy bulls brought above &c. the
range for average stock being 7@7hc,
with bologna bulls at 51a@6e.
Calves broke about dollar hundred,
small lots of fancy stock selling at l5@
l5hc, with bunch lots at l4@l5c, fair
lots at Hobo and grassers and drink
ers at s@l0c
Live hogs we're little easier, in SYM
patty with western markets. The diff.
ference between live and dressed hogs is
wider than usual, owing to the fact that
the government is taking everything in
sight in the way of cured meats. Buy
ers were paying up to 2ohc yesterday
