 Little Rock, Ark, Oct. 8, 1918. A. H. Powell. Pine Bluff, Ark.
 The State Council of Defense to- day received following message from Franklin K Lane. Chairman Field Division, National Council of De- fense, which is referred to you for your active cooperation with the Community Labor Boards:
 "A stock of high explosive shells imperatively needed in France has been destroyed and the flow of these supplies has been retared not only for the present moment, but for months to come, unless immediate relief is provided.
 "This loss must be made up at once by putting additional burdens on all other American intuition plants.
 '..Within the next forty-eight hours the number of men to be supplied by your state will be wired by the United States Employment Service to its Federal state director
 Please issue the necessary notice to your State, county and communi- ty councils of defense to put their entire influence behind the employ ment service.
 "In the emergency this call for men must be met
 "There should be no difficulty in getting men. The. work is danger ous, but Nat will not deter anyone, for it is unthinkable that any man in this country would hold back from work which the women of England and France long have carri- ed on.
 "When this problem is placed be- fore the American people, public opinion will be solidly behind the employment service and the commit nity labor boards in this emergency.

TANKS FORGE, AHEAD
 IS EFFECTIVE
East of Argonne Monday Night; American Battalion Rescued by
 Comrades.

With the American Army North
 west of Verdun, Oct. s (Bv The ] Associated Press. .)-The American troops continued their advance east of the Argonne until Monday night. After the capture of Chatel Chehery they gained further ground.
 The advance was aided somewhat by the use of smoke bombs and a heavy fog. A platoon of minenwerfers were captured. During the night pat rolling was active. There was inter- mittent artillery firing during the
 the enemy lines. With their ammuni- tion nearly exhausted and weakened from lack of food during period of five days in Yhich they had been cut off from their comrades support in
 the thickets of the Argonne, a batta- lion of American troops has finally been rescused by relief expedition, according to reports received this morning.
 The lost battalica whose where abouts was a mystery for some time after it's disappearance during the attack along the edge of the Argonne comprised several hundred men under the command of Major Charles Whit tlesey. Completely surrounded by the
 Germans, they made their stand with their pistols and rifles and a few machine guns as defensive weapons. When relief reached them their stock of cartridges was almost gone and the men were in a weakened condition from. lack of sustenance and the ef- fects of these fall days from which
 the trapped infantrvmen had no blan- kets to protect them.
 The relief expedition encountered
 great difficulty in aiding the rescued.
