WITHDREW PEACE TERMS

The Germans, upon the resumption
of peace negotiations at Brest-
Litovsk, withdrew the terms previous
ly submitted, on the ground that the
failure of the. Entente Allies to accept
them made necessary separate peace
with Russia. They declined also to
shift the conference to neutral terri
tory. Foreign Minister Trotzky, who
heads the Russian delegation, waived
the Russian demand for conference
on neutral soil in order to give the
Germans no excuse for breaking off
negotiations. DR.. Won Kuehlmann,
German Foreign Secretary, was very
severe in his arrangement of the Rus
SLAMS. He objected to comments of
the Russian press on Germany, and
declared Russian propaganda among
the German troops and people to be
an interference with the internal
policy of, another country. Foreign
Minister Trotzky defended what had
been done, and declared the Germans
were welcomed to seduce the Russian
troops if they could. Details of the
new proposals have not been given
out; but it is thought from what has
been published that the German
delegates are looking for some excuse
that will not be condemned by the
German people to break off negotia-
tons. Strict orders have been issu-
ed by the German Goernment to per-
NIT no Russian propaganda to cross
the border, but it is reported that
German troops make their way to the
Russian lines at night to get the for
hidden matter. Fraternizing of troops
which was encouraged by the Ger
mans while undermining the morale
of the Russian army, is now strictly
forbidden. The armistice, having been
extended to February IL, the Russian
delegates returned to Petrograd on
the 18th. 1t is reported that the con-
ference will be resumed in a few DAYS
at Warsaw The strife between the
Reichstag majority and the German
Government is growing in intensity.
The Pan-Germanists are against all
peace attempts that do not recoup
Germany for her losses.

Americas part in the war is still
confined to the work of preparation,
drilling the million and a half of men
under arms, sending food and other
supplies to Europe, and building ships
to carry them. The output of mer-
chant shipping in 1917 was 901, 223
tons, or nearly double that of 1916,
and almost half of the wrold's out
put of that year, 1,899,934 tons. This
output of Aemrican shipyards will be
present year. The sfnkings by sub
marines are estimated at about s.
100000 tons.

NURSE SHORTAGE
IN A.E.F. IN FRANCE

An army of a million men needs
$4,000 nurses, according to General
Ireland, U. s. A., who has cabled the
National Red Cross department OF
nurses in regard TO conditions brought
about by the present offensive.
There is a shortage of nurses in
France, according to this estimate as
we now have more than million men
there and less than 5000 nurseries
than half the number required in
times of actual warfare.
One thousand nurses per week for
period of eight weeks is the en-
rollment asked of the American Red
Cross by the Surgeon Generals Office
to meet this shortage and replace
those being withdrawn from canton
ments for service in France.
The need appears very urgent and
the probability is that a large number
of graduate nurses will Sc sent over.
Miss Lillian l.. White, director of
the Pacific division, bureau of nurs-
ing, is conducting a camapign to NEE;
the quota of this state. In former
drives for enrolment only registered
graduates were accepted, but in this
emergency graduates who have not
registered are qualified and the ruling
prohibiting foreign service by those
with brothers in the army or navy has
also been cancelled.
Over 2600 nurses were enrolled by
the Red Cross in July and the papers
of 1850 nurses for service in military
hospitals were sent to the Surgeon
Generals office. Approximately 800
nurses for foreign service per week
have been equipped through the equip
ment center in New York, but to meet
this new emergency call it will be
necessary TO double enrollments AMI
increase assignments to duty.

OREBODY ON TENTH LEVEL OF
ROCHESTER, MINES EXCELLENT

Last weeks work on the tenth level
OF the Rochester Mines Company
property continues to show up the
orebody as fully as large as antici-
pated. with a likelihood that IL viii
be even better than the eighth level
body. Mill heads are showing a good
average with a promise of being
higher for the latter part of the
month. The company's report for the
week says:
The orebody on the tenth level is
still continuing to open up as at first
anticipated. and from all indications
IL will prove to be larger than the ore
shoot We had on the eighth level this
spring. and from which we are still
extracting large quantity of good
mill ore.
The eleventh level is also opening
up big orebody which no doubt will
prove 10 be continuation OF the tenth
level orebody. All other working
places in the mine are producing their
usual quota of ore
"The average tonnage for the montl.
to date is 1S1 tons and the heads aver
age about s13 per ton. with indica-
tons OF being even still higher during
the last half of this month"

WASH DAY IN CAMP HOLDS
NO TERRORS FOR FIGHTERS

The United States is the proprietor
of the largest laundries in the world.
These tremendous washing establish
ments are in action in the many can
tonments in which the American sol
diers are being trained, and are shown
in the U. S. official war film, "Persh-
ing's Crusaders" at the American
theatre, Tuesday, August 81.
Among the many interesting scenes
shown in the official films are those
depicting the way Uncle Sam has pro-
vided for cleanliness, following the
motto that cleanliness is next to fight
ing ability Much has been said about
the way the regulations force the men
to the shower each day but until the
committee on public information gave
the people a view of these films little
was known of the vast arrangements
for keeping the clothing of the SOL
diers clean.
Also ii is shown how the sailors
wash and dry their white uniforms,
and seeing them it is easily under
stood how Uncle Sans tars always
appear in spotless whites.
Many interesting things are shown
in "Pershing's Crusaders" but moth
ing of more interest than the way the
government is insuring the cleanli-
ness of the fighting men. This is a
feature that will be pleasing to all
who have boys in the cantonments or
at the front.
