Mr.. Amidon has been allowed only
one recruit a week, but new rule
Just in effect, calls for all the re-

one weekly for the regular naval

the time that enough men respond to
the call to keep the office open.
This also is for the reserve and
all are wanted, and will be taken

officer will probably be sent to Ash

Joyful May Dance

The Ladies Auxiliary are prepar-
ing a great feast for lovers of dane
ing. Next Friday night at the Nata-
torium the ladies will delight the
visitors with a splendidly arranged
May pole exhibition, as we'll as af-
ford them an opportunity to enjoy
an evening of joyful dancing to the
strains of the finest music.
The demands from the charities,
such as the Red Cross and general
war charities, have depleted the Aux

given in the hope of raising more
money for charity and Auxiliary pur-
poses There will likely be present
the largest crowd of the season, as
citizens like to encourage the ladies
in their splendid efforts.

War Relief Fund
Met With Success

After a week of unprecedented ac-
tivities, the campaign for Ashland s
war relief fund has narrowed down
to the final sitting out of those who
have been unsolicited during the past
week on account of being absent
when the committee called upon
them, or to some who through some
oversight, were missed in the solici-
tation. There are also a few who
failed to subscribe anything to the
fund, and these will be called upon
again in the hope that they may have
had a change of heart and will SUBJ
scribe.
While the entire amount of sub
scriptions has not been checked up
yet and will not be for several days
when all the returns have been
brought in, indication point to a
gratifying success of the project The
executive committee expect to have
realized enough on their subscrip-
t'ons to pay the present quota of the
Red Cross drive, and receive enough
in the war chest monthly to meet all
other charity demands that will be
made in the future.
This will be an immense relief to
those who give their time and means
to promote these drives, as well as
relieve the citizens of being impor-
tuned frequently for subscriptions.
The executive board wish to call
the attention of any who have been
overlooked in the soliciting that their
subscriptions will be received by any
of the team workers at any time.
Every citizen Of Ashland is supposed
to make a contribution to the fund,
and no matter If they have not been
approached by the campaign man
ayers, the duty Of making subscrip-
tons is obvious. This should be made
Immediately so that the amount can
be credited in making up the total
Of the war chest.

Mexico Takes Strike at U.S..
German Efforts Seen In Action

tions Inevitably has been follwed by
war. Between lesser powers this
rule often fails to hold good.
Military operations on the western
battle front have been overshadowed
in interest recently by developments
elsewhere.
No signs are observable, according
to correspondents at the front, Of
the enemy's intentions as to the time
and place Of the delivery of his ex-
Nected stroke. The artillery activity,
indeed, seems less marked than for
some days past, while the ayiators
have been obliged to let down in
their intense labors by the advent of
less favorable weather.
1t seems not improbable, however,
that the magnificent work of the
allied airmen has had much to do
with the slowness of the enemy in
putting his offensive machine in
working order again. They have
established themselves as masters Of
the Situation to such an extent that
the Germans have been foced for
the most part to keep well back Of
their own lines.
The allied aviators, on the other
land, have been able to carry out
Photographic observations and bomb
ing work on a large scale for long
distances in the enemy's rear terri
tory.
In the aerial activity American
airmen are taking an increasingly
active part, and in the Toul sector,
an exclusively pursuit squadron is
operating with success to date.
The allied infantry raiders have
been active equally with the avia-
tors, but here the Germans have
more nearly matched their oppon-
ents.
The enemy raiding parties have
been especially active on the front
of General Won Hutier's army, south
of the Somme.
A total of SO Americans lost their
lives in the sinking of the British
transport Moldavia off the English
coast Thursday morning. The men
were all members of B company, 5Sth
I. s infantry, fourth division. The
reIsAnsis American soldiers OF
board, 427 in number of the 5Sth
infantry, were safely landed, together
with all other persons the steamer
carried.

was organized through the local Red
Cross chapter, aided by six assistant

City TO Have No =
SlaCkeTS In Future

o. X. Baldwin, representing the
extension service cooperating with
the farm help specialists office in
Portland, was in Ashland during the
latter part Of last week meeting with
the mayor and city council in an ef-
fort to establish in this city the law
compelling all able-bodied men in
draft age to follow some necessary
employment or fight. The movement
is heing agitated as an amendment
to the selective service regulations
to 60 into effect July ! and will ap-
ply to all able-bodisd men following
non-useful occupations to either get
a new job or join the army.
In conjunction with practically all
the cities and incorporated towns OF
the state, the extension service urges
Ashland officials to pass an ordin-
ance to prevent all male persons in
the city who are physically fit to per-
form some useful service, from re-
naming idle during the period OF
the war, providing a penalty and de-
claring an emergency. Failure to
comply with this ordinance will be
subject to fine or Imprisonment or
both. The fact of the accused pos
sessing property or an income suf-
ficient to support himself and those
regularly dependent upon him will
not be an excuse to exonerate him
from coming under this law.
The matter of passing an ordinance
to this effect will be brought up be-
fore the city council shortly and will
without doubt be made law in Ash
land as well as elsewhere.

Washington, May 25.-In Mexico's
sudden breaking off of diplomatic re-
latlons with Cuba is seen an indirect
action against the United States,
Those here most familiar with Latin
American affairs profess to see in it
the forerunner of more direct action,
possibly an interruption of inter
course between the United States and
Mexico.
Although without official informa-
tion of a detailed character, it Is un-
derstood here that Mexico's real
grievance against Cuba is the recent
incident to which the Mexican min
lister to Argentine, Senior Ysidro Fa-
bella, was dealyed in Havana, while
some official, ostensibly a Cuban
customs inspector, searched his bag
gage and probably removed some pa
pers said to be of an international
character.
This incident is believed here to
be the real cause of the break and
those who entertain this belief are
firm in the conviction that Mexico
was convinced that the United States
was responsible for the searching in
cident.
When Senior Fabela's luggage was
searched, 1t was maintained by some
that the person who. did it was not
a Cuban official at all, but some
other agent in the disguise of a Gu
ban inspector or gendarme. Later,
however, it seemed to have been sat
isfaciorily established that the man
really was Cuban inspector.
A break between Cuba and Mexico.
il is felt, dlsrupts practically nothing
but g-standing friendly relation.
In the opinion of those in close touch
WIN tne SUBJECT II may actually give
Cuba a free hand, as the Mexican
foreign minister says in his an
nouncement, but perhaps not in the
manner suggested.
Is German Effort
American agents for some time
have been reporting German agents
operating in Cuba, some of them
crossing frequently to the United
States as Cuban citizens or Mexican
citizens. A severance of diplomatic
relations probably would leave the
Cuban government feeling more at
liberty to investigate their activities.
When flrst-class powers are con-
cerned, a break in diplomatic rela-
