TIIE MORNING OREGOXIAN, 3IOXDAY, JUNE 19, 1916. AUSTRIA CONCEDES CZERN0WI1Z LOSS Bukowina Capital Evacuated Only After Russians Have Penetrated the City. FEW SURVIVE AT LUTSK General Brussiloff's Attack at First Treated as Joke by Arcliduke Frederick, Who Is in Midst of Birthday Celebration. VIENNA, via London, June 18. The evacuation of Czernowitz by the Aus trians after the Russians had forced the passage of the Pruth and pene trated, the city was announced by the War Office today. PETROGRAD, via London, June 18. The capture by the Russians of Czer Siowitz. capital of the Austro-Hungar-fan Cro wnland of Bukowina, was offi cially announced today by the Russian War Office. LONDON, June IS. The whole brunt f the first onslaught on Lutsk fell on two divisions, of which only sorry remnants survived, according to Aus trian prisoners, says a Reuters Petio-p-rad dispatch. After the destruction cjf these divisions, the Russians poured through the Austrian lines, menacing the rear of Archduke Joseph Ferni nand's fourth army. This necessitated the precipitate evacuation of the whole Xutsk region. Birthday Brine Celebrated. The day on which General Brussil off's movement began, says the dis patch, chanced to be the 60th birth day of Archduke Frederick, the commander-in-chief of the Austrian army, who went to Archduke Joseph Ferdi nand's staff headquarters at Lutsk to celebrate the occasion with the army, l.utsk was gayly beflagged with the Austrian and Hungarian colors and there were illuminations in the even ing. There the troops were reviewed by the holders of the Order of the. Iron Crown in the town hall square. Arch duke Frederick extolled the valor and jjrowess of the soldiers, whom he ex horted to fresh victories, which he declared would soon bring them to a long and happy peace. After the review there was an open air luncheon in the beautiful Lutsk l'ark. Gayety Turned Into Despair. "Both archdukes," continues the dispatch, "were among the gayest of the gay, sublimely unconscious of the Imminent catastrophe. When Freder ick was informed that the Russians liad opened a hurricane of gunfire along the whole front, which seeming ly presaged a general attack, he dis missed the notion as a joke, saying: We know these attacks; they just blaze away to silence.' "As, however, hour after hour elapsed and the firing did not cease. Archduke Frederick became increas ingly uneasy and when the news was brought that the Russians had broken the first line of the Lutsk defenses and the Austrians were fleeing, pur sued by. the Russians, he was overcome by despair. Strategic reserves were called up; the 13th Landwehr division was thrown into the main breach, but to no avail. It shared the fate of its predecessors.' STRIKE PICKET KILLED MXaiO STRIKEBREAKERS OPEN FIRE IN SAN FRANCISCO. Itiot Call Is Turned In and Negroes A re Driven Back to Their Barge i by Police. SAN FRANCISCO, June 18 Thomas Olsen, a picket of the Longshoremen's Union, was shot and instantly killed tonight outside the American-Hawaiian Steamship Company's pier, when three negro strikebreakers fired two volleys vith revolvers at Olsen and two other union pickets. The sound of the shooting aroused 50 other negroes, strikebreakers housed on a barge moored at the American Hawaiian pier, and they rushed out from the wharf shed and gave chase to the two pickets who, when they saw the overwhelming force after them, look refuge in flight. A riot call was turned in and the negroes driven back to their barge by the police, who up to a late hour had been unable to pick out the men who did the shooting. According to the pickets who es caped, the negroes opened fire without either warning or provocation from a distance of about 12 feet. Olson is survived by a widow and three chil dren. The pickets, according to the police, were unarmed. Idaho Troops Gathering. j BOISE. Idaho. June 18. (Special.)

Circular 19, Division of Militia Affairs, 1914, prescribes the or ganization desired from each state as part of the local tactical division, and only these organizations will be ac cepted into service. "It is requested that all officers of the Adjutant - General's department, quartermaster corps and medical corps, duly recognized as pertaining to state headquarters, under table 1. tables or organization, organized militia, and not elsewhere required for duty in state administration, be ordered to camp for duty as camp staff officers. Such num ber of these staff officers as the De partment' Commander may determine may be mustered into the service of the. United States for the purpose of proper camp administration and will be mustered out when their services are no longer required. Staff Officers Called. 'Where recognized brigades or di visions are called into service from a state, the staff officers pertaining to these units under tables of . or ganization. United States Army, will be mustered into, service and also the authorized inspectors of small arms practice pertaining thereto. Except for these two purposes of mobilization camp service and of the prescribed staff service with tactical units, offic ers of state headquarters under table one, above mentioned, will not be mus tered into service at this time. "If tactical divisions are later or ganized, the requisite additional num ber of staff officers, with rank" as pre scribed for division staff, will, as far as practicable, be called into service from these states which have furnished troops to such divisions. "NEWTON D. BAKER. "Secretary of War." The Governor was at Corvallis to night, but in a telephone conversa tion he declared that the Oregon Na tional Guard was in a high state of efficiency at the present time and ex pressed the greatest confidence that the Oregon troops would acquit them selves with the same bravery and with equal honor to the state as did the members of the famous Second Oregon Regiment during their service in the Philippines in the Spanish-American War. Governor Praise Oregon Troops. ' In a telegram which the Governor sent tonight to Adjutant-General White he said he was much pleased to learn from the Adjutant-General . of the splendidly efficient condition of the Oregon National Guard. "As mobilization and possibly active service for the Oregon National Guard seems imminent," telegraphed the Ex ecutive to General White. "I am espe cially, gratified at your report that our militia is in first-class shape and ready to respond promptly. I am sure that the Oregon boys will bring credit to themselves and to the state, as in the past. I am with them absolutely as Governor and citizen. "This is to assure you of my utmost co-operation in any step that may be necessary for you to take as Adjutant General to insure the most efficient mobilization and fulfillment by Oregon of Jier share of the obligations of prac tical National preparedness." Weeks ago. plans by which the Guard could be mobilized quickly were made by Adjutant-General White upon sug gestion of Governor Withycombe in anticipation of a. possible emergency. Militia Is Efficient. "I am told by Adjutant-General White." said the Governor in a. tele phone conversation tonight, "that the Oregon National Guard is in a high state of efficiency. All plans have been perfected for weeks for quick mobili zation. Some time ago I suggested to General White the desirability 6f hold ing a practice mobilization in July in stead of the usual training camp. It was planned to issue the call for such camp as nearly as possible simulating the actual conditions of mobilization; I wanted to see just where we stand Just how efficiently the Oregon troops could be prepared for service. Now it looks as if we will have the real thing and I am doubly glad fpr the fore sighted preparations that have been made. "The Oregon militia will make good. The men who have enlisted deserve our enthusiastic support, and the men who will enlist should be helped o"1 B'"cer1' hPe this does not mean TL. aImost the least desirable thing in the world.

Note that there are only T WO (2) layers of these iriant Cords, in any Silvertovn Cord Tire, whatever its dimensions, with a layer of live Rubber between, to absorb friction. Then bear in mind that each of these TWO flat, rubber-impregnated, Cords is STRONG enough to lift a man's weight. You have here the secret of that marvellous ENDURANCE, in Silvertown Cord Tires, which has made it possible for the Gladiators of the Race-Track to TAKE OUT OF the Motor Cars they drive, ALL. the speed which the Builders of these Cars can put INTO them. That no "Thread" Tires, (calling themselves by the Silvertown name of "Cord" Tires), show pictures of their 5 to 7 layers of Thread construction, is significant. But, that none of them are SEEN, or HEARD from on the Race Track (which is the Crucible for testing Tire ENDURANCE) is MORE than significant. Silvertowns have never been intended as mere RACING Tires. But, the fact that the Speed-Kings of the Race-Track elect to PAY FOR THEM, when they could have other Tires free for the asking, is mighty well worth noting. jILVERTOWN Cord Tires, not only give PRESTIGE, Ease-of-Riding, and Aristo J) cratic Elegance to Cars equipped with them but they also add: 1st 17 more Net-Power and Speed to same Car. 2nd 30 farther Coasting Quality. 3rd 25 more Mileage, per Gallon of Gas olene. And, this latter feature soon pays for the relatively small additional cost which SILVERTOWN Cord Tire Construction makes necessary, per Tire. No Thread (or so-called Cord) Tires average "LARGER." ' The demand for Silvertown Cord Tires has, for nearly two years, far exceeded our capacity for pro duction. t But Silvertown Cord Tires may NOW be had through all GOODRICH Dealers and Branches.

DYOTT SAYS AMERICA'S I'OSITIO IS PROVIDENTIAL. Reconstruction Period at Close of War Is Theme Press Preparedness Attitude Is Indorsed. While the question of military pre paredness is one that must not be neglected, America stands In a provi dential position which calls for a pre paredness in a far broader and more significant field; a preparedness that looks beyond the immediate sweep of events into the time of reconstruction following the close of the great war in Europe. This was the opinion expressed by the Rev. Luther R. Dyott. pastor of the First Congregational Church, preaching on "The Right Attitude Toward the Question of Preparedness," last night. As to military preparedness, he did not minimize its Importance, but he touched upon the programme of the League to Inforce Peace as the best solution to this problem. a In reviewing the views of the var ious elements of society on military preparedness, he called attention to the changed attitude of President Wil son on the subject, and the fact that the entire press is committed by its utterances to the Idea of military pre paredness. "In this matter." he declared. "I be lieve that the press is to be trusted. It has a higher ethical sense than the public may be aware of. It senses a condition more quickly than the gen eral public, and interprets tendencies of the times with a better light than the general public has. Hence much importance must be attached to the position in which It stands on this matter." Democrats Will Ratify.
