SLOW WORK. SAYS GERMAN
Military Critic Comments on Situation
in France

Amstordam,-Th Berlin Vossische
Zeitung military correspondent in an
article on the offensive on the west
ern front says:
ut should be emphasized repeatedly
in view Of exaggerated hopes, tha. a
decision can be procured only cu.n-
paratively slowly.
"Fhc foe is enabled to organize his
resistance on his brilliantly con-
structed railway systems, which has
functions and unloading stations at
Compeignc and Villers Cottercts.
THE German supreme command
can not well proceed now against the
newly consolidated French front,
which is richly provided with reserves,
and bear the great losses which ex-
perlencc shows are entailcd by such
operations.
when the French brought up big
reserves, the exploitation of the sur
PRISE movement was to certain ex-
tent ended. Presumably, certain
change will soon occur in the entire
scheme of battle operations. The bat
tie can only proceed slowly; de-
cision cannot be procured in a few
days. We should therefore, arm our
selves anew with patience. The con
tnuation of the big offensive will
come at the right time"

London-Premier David Lloyd
George, in replying to toast to the
success of the Entente allied arms at
the dinner Of the Printers Society,
of London, said that Britishcrs have
made unsurpassed sacrifices for a
great purpose, an da high ideal.
"One Of the most encourapainp
things" the Premier continued, "was
the superb value and the trained skill
with which the Americans have taken
their part of the struggle and defeat
ed the foe. 1t is most encouraging
thing, because there has been a great
tlo Wof these troops and we were de-
pending on them"
If for any cause the Allies fail to
succeed it will be sorry world to
live in, Mr.. Lloyd George said.
1t is impossible to exaggeratc the
Importance of the significance of is-
sues with which we are confronted TO-
day." he declared. "Thc fate of the

is not known here, bu, he was there
in 1902 representing various Ameri-
can business firms and remained con-
tinuously until arrested. In 1915 he
was charged with indusing young men
to enter the service of Russian sDy
in Germany. In January, 1916, he
was to have been tried on an espion-
age charge, but escaped the day before
that set for the trial. He was rar-
rested in Warsaw in September, 1917.
At his trial his defense was that
he did not know the nature of the
employment for which he directed
three young men to the home of the
spy. He was guilty and sentenced to
death on December 20, 1917, but on
january 8, 1918, his sentence was
committed to ten years imprisonment.
His citizenship is question: by the

burn WOOD
Instead Of Coal, IL the Urgent Appeal
Of Both the State and County
Fuel Administrators.

What are you doing to encourage
the farmers and people living In the
rural districts In your county who
obtain wood to secure a supply for
next winters use2
In the rush of spring work In crop
production on the farms II is obvious
that not q great deal OF active wood
cutting can be done, but every spare
moment should be utilized In shaping
waste wood into fuel for next winter
at home and for sale to nearby VII
lagos.
Communities should figure on their
needs for both wood and coal and
realize that coal may not be forth
coming, and wood must be used In Its
place. EVERY stick Of wood burned
is lick against the Kaiser"
As individuals, 1t is up to each one
to see that his own needs are prov
ided for in accordance with the new
demands made by the nation at war
for an enormous amount Of coal DO
not wait until there is an emergency
demand at the approach Of bitter
weather next winter, but get out the
wood now at odd times from waste
material and rest assured that there
will be ready market for more than
is cut. Win the war with wood.
Next winter is going to be the run
and we cannot begin too soon to pre-
pare for it. Battleships and locomo-
tives cannot burn wood nor can NUM-
ton factories burn wood, but the
farmers of Kentucky can burn wood
and should do so in keeping with the
war program.
A cord of wood on the average 1t
said to have fuel value Of more than
% of a ton of coal.
The increased coal requirements
during the coming coal year will be
one hundred million tons. With the
increased maximum production at the
mines, half of this amount, |. e., fifty
million tons more coal, can be pro-
cured, but the other fifth million tons
must be saved. If, therefore, it were
in any way possible to increase the
wood cutting rs per cent. throughout
the country, we should have the
equivalent of fifty million tons of coal
added to our supply.
Like food, so is coal of most impor-
lance in winning this war. The mean
ing is clear except to those who will
not see. There is a real shortage or
coal. 1t cannot be brushed aside by
laws, regulations or resolutions. Moth
ing but real saving will bring about
these results. The Government must
and will see that coal is saved
Most people think it is hardship
to have to burn wood. We admit it
is not as convenient and means more
work, but unless the people them
selves make sacrifices, it is more than
likely an embargo will be placed on
coal next winter to those who have
access to supplies of wood.
Very truly yours,
w. B. BRYAN,
Federal Fuel Administrator, Kentucky

UNFIT FOR SOLDIERS
Is Uncured Tobacco, Hastily Market.
ed, Says a Former Mason
/. County Grower.

Declaring Kentucky tobacco now
being placed on the market is of the
poorest quality and unfit to be sent to
American soldiers abroad or at home,
C. F. McAuliffe, Covington, retired
Mason county farmer, said he would
urge District Attorney Thomas Stat
terry to place the matter before proper
Federal authorities for investigation.
Tobacco is improperly cured and
of little value, although big prices are
being paid" said Mr.. McAuliffe.
AS corrective measure he suggests
that Government inspectors be detail
ed to see that tobacco is properly
CURED and "sweated" before being
placed on the market by buyers or
manufacturers.
Prices should be regulated also dur
ing the period of the war, he said.
1.-THE farmer is receiving six times
the price for his product obtalnaDle
two or three years ago. he declared
Tobacco which brought five or six
cents a pound in 1916 was sold for 20
and 80 cents last year. Under the
present enormous demand tobacco
buyers buy up the tobacco patches
as soon as they are planted, some
times paying as high as 80 cents a
=2ound. The buyer gives the farmer
little time to properly cure tobacco
in his haste to place it on the mar
ket."
The result, declares Mr.. McAuliffe,
is an incurred product of little value,
for which the public pays a high
pricp

FIsTIC HISTORY

Joe Walcott knocked out Dan Cree don in the first round in New York twenty-one years ago today, April 25. 1899. Creedon was a New Zealander by birth, and was middleweight champion of Australia before he came to America. He claimed the world S middleweight title when F'itzsimmons became a heavyweight, but lost to Kid Mccoy. His defeat by the "Black Demon of Barba does was keenly felt by Australians. The fight had scarcely commenced when the little black vel terweight landed punch that sent Creedon to dreamland. He demanded another chance at the negro, and Joe was willing. In the second engagement Creedon stuck through the full twenty rounds, but was putclassed nearly all the way by the squat black boy. Lat CT the same year Walcott and Cree don, fought for a third time, in Chi cago, and Joe was again the victor. Creedon begged Joe for another chance and got it. The fourth bout was stag ed in Utica and went twenty rounds. but with the same result as in the earlier contests. After that Creedon decided that he had enough of the Demons medicine.
