whether or not that club desired mem
bership in the A. A. A.
At the 1917 annual meeting of the
New York State Automobile Associa-
tlon resolution was unanimously
passed as follows:
THAT the executive committee of
this association recommends that
mem bership in the American Auto
mobile Association be retained for as
many of our clubs as possible
through the New York State Auto
mobile Association only"
Again Urged to Join A. A. A.
Again, February ., 1918, notice was
sent to all of the clubs of the New
York State Automobile Association urg-
ing them to maintain membership in
the A. A. A. through the New York
State Automobile Association.
only sixteen out of total of 11S
clubs responded favorably to this call.
Other clubs stated that they did not
desire membership in the A. A. A.
Other clubs stated they could use the
funds to better advantage, while the
remaining clubs paid no attention
Whatever to the matter The New York
State Automobile Association paid dues
tor all of its members at large to the
A. A. A.
The lack of interest thus shown by
SO many of the New York State Auto
mobile Associations clubs was un
doubtedly due to the fact that up to
the time of the 1915 annual meeting of
the A. A. A. the New York State Auto
mobile Associations clubs had paid, in
the sum total, thousands of dollars an
nually to the A. A. A., but had had no
representation in that body. At the
1915 annual meeting of the A. A. A.
each of the ninety clubs then compos-
ing the New York State Automobile AS
sociation was given director on the
A. "A. A. board of directors, but before
the next meeting the A. A. A. bylaws
were again revised so that these ninety
directors could have vote only on the
basis of 500 each. This action upon
the part of the A. A. A. caused a large
number of clubs to refuse further affil-
iatlon with that body.
In addition to state officials and pub
lie safety commissioners, representa-
tives of the oil division of the United
States fuel administration will be
present at the convention, as will also
officials of Canadian automobile asso-
Citations, the Automobile Club of Amer
lea and other state automobile asso-
Citations and individual clubs.

Motor Conference
A Serni-Annual
Affair

The motor transportation conference
oeing held every evening last week at
the Colt-Stratton Building proceeded
with satisfactory results. The attend
ance has shown remarkable increase
with each evenings session. A score
OF the foremost authorities in the
country on the respective branches of
motor transportation delivered ad-
dresses, which were followed by inter
esting discussions. The conference has
had the active cooperation of a dozen
different organizations interested in
motor transportation, as we'll as of a
MURDER of government officials. AS a
result OF the success Of the conference
it has been decided to make it a semi
annual affair.
Letters commencing the work of the
conference have been received from
Secretary of Commerce Redtield and
Mayor Hylan. The executives of the
Colt-Stratton company, who are the
initiators Of the conference and bear
its expense. have received many letters
OF commentator upon their enterprise.
The text of Secretary Redheld's let
ter to the conference follows:
81 approve heartily the study and
discussion of motor vehicle transporta-
tion at the conference. Apparently
you know my views as to the impor-
tance of motor transportation and I
will NOT. therefore, add to them in de-
tail at this time. 1t is q development
that cannot take place overnight, since
it involves practical questions of road
construction, transfer stations. etc. /
hope to have more time to devote 10
the subject when industry returns to
its normal trend after the war. Mean

By The Associated Press The great
battle between Cambria and st. Quen-

fury. Strong attacks were resumed. at
daylight this morning BY the British
and American armies. The troops of
Field Marshal Haig and General Per-

Third and Fourth armies and the
American troops resumed their attack
day the British First Army advanced
north Of Cambria. The First Army
gained considerable ground toward Vii
lcrs-en- -Artois.
The Anglo American advance pro-
ceeded behind an intense barrage fire
from the British artillery, which the
Germans seemed unable to withstand.
The Germans now have applied the
torch to the beautiful town of Bohan,
in the general direction Of which the
Americans are driving from Fremont.
The British gunners paid special at

In the Argonne they took important

1000 additional prisoners.
Advance East OF Mouse
The Americans had their day filled
with major and minor successes and
advanced at every point in the sector
where they attacked l'urthest to the
cast, cooperating with the French
troops, American divisions advanced
for a considerable distance east of the
Mcuse and cleared the Germans out of

gerously troublesome, because they
were able to pour an entilading fire
upon the advancing troops.
G0:25 p. m.).-Complete reports
show that the Mamellc fortiications
have been occupied by the Americans.
To do it the troops had to storm the
rcdoubtablc Hill 269, which was taken
as carly as 10 o'clock this morning.
Hill 263 was captured half hour
later. The advance here and there had
been momentarily checked by fierce
resistance and the stiffest kind of ma
chine gun fire, but the Americans had
SO resolutely gone after their OBJ
iectivc and the advance artillery fir
ing had been so complete that nothing
could stop them.

More than 1900 prisoners had been
counted up to late this afternoon.
These were confined in the cages. and
more were coming III. From stratc-

important than at first appeared.
From just north of Romagne and cast
and west of the point carried by the
American trops there is nothing but
level ground and no more serious
enemy fortitications to encounter.
Ideal conditions for the Americans are
in prospect and the Germans have lost
a large part of their strength their
tremendous fortiticatons and concrete
pill-boXes.
After an intense nineteen hour
bombardment which nearly destroyed
and shattered the German dcfenses,
the American infantry began its ad-
vance at $3.50 o'clock All along the
front a heavy mist was hanging and
aerial observers were unable to report
for several hours whether the attack
was success or a failure.

Wilson S Reply
As Wise Move
Believes Presidents Action
Puts Fateful Test to
German Sincerity

LONDON, Oct. Q. - In diplomatic
circles here President Wilson's reply
to the peace proposals Of Prince Maxi
milan, the Imperial German Cchan-
cellor, is regarded as clever and logical.
1t is felt in these circles that the
President was wise in refraining from q
fiat rejection. The President, however,
it is considered, displays the same att-
tude of skepticism as do British and
Continental statesmen concerning the
good faith Of the German government
and desires satisfaction on this point
before taking further steps.
1t is believed satisfactory answer
to President Wilson's questions will
severely test Germany's good faith
while an affirmative reply will mean the
acknowledgment of German defeat.
The acumcn and logic of the Amer
lean Executive in framing the reply is
regarded by the diplomatists as char
acteristic Of him.
Discussing the ultimate peace terms
the London newspapers refer with in
dignation to the outrages still persisted
in by the retreating Germans, and
unanimously demand reparaton and
punishment for thees latest crimes, as
will as for other outragcs committed
during the war.
"The Daily Telegraph says: "The
evacuation OF Belgium will rot undo
the crime of 1914. Rcparation to the
fullest measure must also be made. for

Quick AnstUer to
Presidents Note
Expected in Capital

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-An early
response to President Wilson's note OF
inquiry to the German Chancellor is
expected by American officials. While
realizing that an answer to the three
pertinent questions put to the Prince
OF Baden will be very difficult If the
original proposal of the German gov
ernment were not sincere, officials are
confident that internal conditions in
Germany and the tremendous cxi~
gencies OF the military situation will
force speedy action by the Chancellor
if he hopes to prolong the existence
Of his Cabinet beyond Il few days.
SO far as the hold of the government
upon the people is concerned, condi-
tons in Austria arc even far worse
than those in Germany. This fact is
calculated to affect strongly the Ger
man government, which is understood to
entertain grave doubts Of the strength
of purpose Of the Dual Monarchy, and to
fear that Austria, or perhaps Hungary,
acting epcndently, will follow Bull
garia in seeking an unconditional
peace. This would leave Germany to
wage the war alone, for it is a foregone
conclusion that Turkey already is lost
to the central alliance.
Note Is Embarrassing
Tho pointed inquiry directed to
Prince Max concerning whether he is
speaking merely for tho constituted
authorities of the empire, who have SO
far conducted the war, will, it is be-
lieved, be very embarrassing. If the
response is in the affirmative, Ger
many's proposal will be rejected, as
the President has already given notice
that he will have no dealings with such
authorities.
The powerful Socialist clements in
the Reichstag also arc counted upon
to resent any such statement by the
Chancellor as directly in conflict with
the Reichstag resolution of July, 1917,
and with the very recent pledges to
make his Cabinet representative body
under which the Socialists were en-
tccd to take part in tho government
On the other hand. ii Max attempts
to repudiate the military party he un-
doubtcdly will bring about Il demand
lrom that still powerful organization
TOR his retirement, and thc adoption Of
a reactionary policy.
May Take Middle Course
The general belief here is that tic
Chancellor will endcavor to find a mid
die course and confne himself in his
reply to halfway admissions, hoping
thus to begin long diplomatic discus
sion which might develop differences
between the Entente Allies and Amer.
ica as to war aims. and to lower the
morale of the armies opposed to the
Central Powers.
Any such move is certain of faijurc !
