doubted that very strong German
forces can be spared from other fronts
for this theatre, and transportation
problems would be most difficult for
the enemy to overcome.
AS for an Austrian naval offensive,
a com parison of the morale of the two
fleets can be seen in the recent Italian
exploits at Pola and of the Dalmatian
coast, when three OF Austria's great
est war ships were destroyed by tiny
Italian motor boats.
To win an advantage in the air,
Austria must overcome combined
force of Italian, British and American
aviators.
RETREAT coUNTERMANDED.

PARIS, July "a (1:05 p. m.).-The
German crown prince has suddenly
changed his plans for strategic re-
treat In the Soissons-Rheims salient
and has determined to fight it out
there.
This decision, indicated by stiffen-
ina enemy resistance and increasing
achievements, was borne out by
German prisoners today, who de-
cIared the withdrawal order has been
countermanded. They could offer
no explanation, but military experts
believe German politicians, fearing
the internal effects Of huge retire.
ment, forced the change in plans.
The crown prince continues to or
der new divisions into the pocket
drawing these reInforcements from
as far north as the main British
front
German losses in this region are
now estimated at from 125, 600 to
$50, 600 men, including 5000 pris-
onerS.

AMERICAN WEALTH

The wealth of the American people
has increased during the past three
years faster than any other nation in
history. During the four years prior
10 1914 our foreign exports increased
SO per cent. This was wonderful
record. but is insignificant compared
with the record since that time. From
1914 to 1917 our foreign exports in
creased 1874 per cent. and the balance
of trade, or excess OF exports, over
imports, increased go per cent The
exchanges in the bank clearing house
of the United States increased from
one hundred and sixty-four billion dol
lars in 1914 to three hundred and four
billions in 1917.
1t is estimated by the Secretary OF
the Treasury that the income Of the
american people amounts to forty bill
lion dollars annually. In the light OF
these amazing figures, the tremendous
bond issues which we have been called
upon TO absorb do not appear to be SO
extraordinary. We are furnishing an
enormous amount Of money to carry
on this war, but We have enormous
means of creating wealth and OF find
inc money.

During the past year and 4 half cotton
has sold from 80 TO 40 cents per pound.
or from three TO FIVE times normal
prices. It does not cost the cotton
grower Of the South hardly a dollar
more to produce bale of cotton the
past twelve months than it did during
1913 and 1914. The cheap labor OF the
southern negro has not advanced in
cost, in proportion to the higher priced
labor Of the mills and factories Of the

Many million bales Of cotton have

WHIPPED THE OLD MAN

Father insisted upon saying dis
loyal things. He said the kaiser
could lick the whole world. He
wouldn't take it back and SO whipped
him"
This was the defense put up by
young Rennie FELTON,, Of Chicago,
" hen he was called into police court
for chastising hfs sire. As a general
thing wo do not approve Of young men
who assume the right Of inhicting cor
poral punishment upon obstreperous
fathers. but there are exceptions to all
rules. The Chicago court thought so,
for Bonnie was dismissed.
Foolish parents may be lucky II
sometimes they have a patriotic. SEN
sible son, and convenient wood shed.
