ALBANIA PURSUIT GOES ON
OFFICIAL CASUALTY LIST
French and Italians Continue to
FusIi Forward Against Austrians,
Said to Be War "Weary; Slace
donian Front Is Active.
(By the Associated Press.)
Bad weather prevails in France and
Flanders, and operations are far below
normal. Nowhere have there been en
gagements except trench raids and pa
trol encounters.
Big Runs are constantly hammering
away at opposing- positions in several
sectors, particularly on the American
front along the Marne. on the sectors
held by the British near Albert. Kem
mel Hill and Ypres, and near Corey,
where the French face the enemy.
Kntente Seema Prepared.
There is no indication that the date
Is at hand for the expected offensive
by the Hermans. Military observers,
however, believe that with a cessation
of the rains the drifting away of the
low-lying clouds an attempt at a big
drive will be made. Apparently all is
ready in the entente camps.
British troops in Macedonia seem
ingly have started an operation against
the Teutonic allies, which may de
velop westward along the battlefront
and eventually conform with the suc
cessful drive that is being carried out
by the French and Italians in Albania.
West of the town of Doiran, which lies
on the railroad north of Salonilci, the
British have delivered a blow against
the Bulgarians. Details of the opera
tions are lacking, but it is not unrea
sonable to assume that it had in view
the ultimate capture of the railroad
line running northward from TJskub
and the outflanking of the enemy lines
northeast of Monastir.
In Albania the French and Italians
are giving the enemy no rest, pressing
him back daily, mile after mile, and
capturing strategic positions and vil
laces. The latest French official com
munication shows that the French
troops have taken the villages of Narta
and Gramshi. which brings their eastern
flank appreciably nearer Lake Ochrida.
The morale of the Austrlans is said to
be extremely bad and surrenders of
war-worn soldiers are reported con
stantly to be taking place.
LONDON, July 14. Telegraphing
Thursday, Reuter's correspondent on
the Macedonian front says:
"The allied operations in Southern
Albania are resulting In one success
after another, in spite of the difficult
nature of the country. There are no
roads in the battle zone and communi
cations are being kept up over mule
paths.
"While the Italians are pushing
along on the western wing and in the
center, the French are making good
progress in the Bosnia region by over'
coming enemy resistance and captur
ing the ridges of Kosnitzna and the
descending slopes.
AuHtrlana Are Tired.
"The French advance in the valley
of the Tomorlca River threatens the
important town of Berat, which prob
ably will be captured in a few days.
Surrenders by the Austrians are more
frequent, especially among the Slavs,
who are dead tired of campaigning.
The Austrians are burning depots and
villages which they abandon.
"All information obtainable is to the
effect that the enemy s position in
Southern Albania Is seriously Comoro
mised and that there probably will be
a further retreat in the north, thus
freeing our communications between
Western Macedonia and the Adriatic
Coast."
PARIS. July 14. The War Office an
nouncement tonight says:
"There was intermittent artillery ac
tion especially in the region of Corey,
but no infantry action.
"Eastern theater, July 13 West of
Doiran British troops carried out
successful raid on the Bulgarian lines.
Granmht In Occupied.
"On the right bank of the Devoll we
occupied Gramshi.
LONDON. July 14. The British War
Office announcement today reads:
"A hostile raiding party was driven
Off with loss last night east of Locre.
"The hostile artillery has been active
northwest of Alberta, west of Kemmel
Hill and south and southeast of ypres.
"Our own artillery has been active
at a number of points.
WITH THE AMERICAN' FORCES ON
THE MARNE, July 14. There was in
creased artillery firing, and in partic
ular long range shelling on the Ameri
can front along the Marne throughout
the night. There was no infantry
fighting. The weather continues
cloudy and uncertain.
ROME. July 14. "The usual artll
lery actions," says the war office state
ment today, "were more intense at
intervals yesterday from the Valarsa t
the eastern sector of the Asiago Pla
teau. Our fire dispersed moving enem
troops north of Borcoia Pass.
"At Coronone new attacks by enemy
patrols and detachments were promptly
repulsed.
"Three enemy airplanes were brought
down in air fighting.
TEUTON I'ATKOIj IS ROUTED
America n Fire in Marne Sector More
Violent Than Enemy.
WASHINGTON. July 14. General
Pershing's communique for yesterda
follows:
"In the Chateau Thierry region, July
10-11. there was activity on both sides
mostly that of infantry. A German
patrol of 40, equipped with light ma
chine guns, opened fire on the Ameri
can lines near Torcy and was driven
back, leaving at least three killed. Our
own patrols were active. A patrol of
eight German planes attacked an
American photographic mission at S
o'clock in the morning seven kilometers
behind the German lines.
"The Marne sector Our artillery fire
continues much in excess of hostile
fires. Fires and explosions in the vicin
ity of Jauleinne were evidently caused
by our artillery fire. An enemy patrol
of six men was fired on by our troops
and disappeared.
"The Lorraine 6ector was unusually
ciuiet July 9 to 10. with a decrease in
enemy rifle and machine gun fire and
aerial activity.
"In the Woevre, July 8 to 9, enemy
machine gun and rifle fire were very
active along the entire sector. Enemy
anti-aircraft batteries heavily shelled
the allied planes, which persistently
patrolled the enemy lines all day.
"In the Munster sector, July 10. Ger
man machine gun lire was about nor
mal. Our patrols were very active In
reconnoissance.
"The Altkirch sector was very quiet
July. 9 and 10."

LONDON. July 14. The American

American port for Brest, according to
Lloyds advices, 6prang a leak owing
to the abnormally hot weather and was
abandoned on June 22. The crew of
the vessel was transferred to a war

The steamer George L. Eaton, which

on June 2 as having been sunk, pre

success the Social Revolutionists large
ly count on the prevailing disaf
fectlon among the workmen. A small
number of workmen remain loyal to
Bolshevlkism, but the most of them
now realize that Bolshevikism can as
little establish socialism as by the
Brest-Litovsk treaty it was able to
establish universal peace.
Workers Weary of Politics.
Indeed, the majority of the workers
are wearied of politics and the apa
thetic millions of peasants are bitterly
disaffected because the unjust dls
tributlon of land has created a class
of rich peasants called "Kulacs," wh
oppress their poorer neighbors. Iden
tically unfair conditions prevail among
laborers, some of whom are enriched,
while elsewhere complete stagnation
impoverishes the workers.
The Social Revolutionists say th
recent resolutions favoring the Bolshe
vlkists are meaningless, because in
Petrograd, where those favorable to
the Bolshevlkl are employed, there Is
great pressure, but in the provinces
where the Bolshevikl have not ha
such great military forces at their dls
I posal and a greater freedom of expres
sion was possible. Orel, Sormove an
Nishinovgorod gave the right wing o
Social Revolutionists and Menshevlk
ists large majorities. But the So
viets thus elected were forcibly sup
pressed. Also, there were not such
great defections from the Bolshevik
the towns where the food supply
was good. The greater majority of the
Bolshevlkists' supporters are asserted
to be Letts, Finns, Germans and Chi
nese.

Philadelphia Advertising: Man Con
traats Apathy of East With
Portland's Initiative.
'There is a greater spirit of pro
gressiveness. initiative and daring out
here in Oregon and California in on
day than there is anywhere in the East
in a year."
So says Rowe Stewart, advertisln
manager of the Philadelphia Record,
ho, with Mrs. Stewart, is a member
of a party touring the West, followln
the National convention of advertisln
men held recently at San Francisco.
"At Philadelphia we have been think
ing and discussing for years about
building a bridge across the river to
Camden," he explained. "And we are
still talking about it. Here In Portland
I see a bridge spanning your beautiful
Willamette River every few blocks In
addition to the splendid structure with
which you have spanned the Columbia."
This Is the first trip to Oregon which
Mr. Stewart has made, and he mar
veled at the progressiveness apparent
all along the Pacific Coast.
As president of the Poor Richard
Club, an organization of Philadelphia
advertising men. and president of
the newspaper department of the As
sociated Advertising Clubs of the
World. Mr. Stewart has been chairman
of the publicity committee in all of
the war loan campaigns and other pa
rlotic drives of Philadelphia. Oregon's
place in the patriotic war work, he
said, was the wonder of the Nation, and
he is picking up many useful ideas to
aid him in future drives at home.
Mr. Stewart and party will go to Se
attle. Vancouver, B. C, and other cities
of the Northwest before returning
home.
CRANBERRY CROP THRIVES
Ontlook In Pacific County Is for
Abundant Harvest in September.
SOUTH BEND, Wash., July 14.
(Special.) County Agricultural Agent
Nelson says that the cranberry crop In
Pacific County is in fine condition and
there will be an abundant harvest. The
harvest will begin about September 15

scarcity of help to gather the crop.
Last seascn the fire worm damaged
the cranberries to a considerable ex
tent, entailing a loss of thousands of
dollars. Pacific County has the largest
cranberry acreage la th world.
CHEERINESS WAR ANTIDOTE
Send Cheerful Letters to Boys at
Front, Says Rev. David Hughes.
"Write cheering letters to your boys
in the trenches," said Rev. David
Hughes, chaplain of the Welsh Fusl-
leers. at the First Presbyterian Church
last night. "Don't tell your boys about
Johnnie's tooth ache or your own
troubles. Don't talk about the high
cost of living or the shortage of sugar.
Thank God you're alive and keep the
boys who are protecting you in good
frame of mind by writing them only
the cheerful things."
Dr. Hughes complimented the West
on its patriotism and its war work.
Lieutenant C. R. D. Schajei, Royal
Field Artillery, urged his hearers to
watch for pro-German utterances and
nail the lies that are being spread by
disloyalists.

HOME FOR TREASURED MEMORIES
TRUE sentiment makes a place in the heart for the
memories of the loved ones that have gone beyond, but
the same true heart has brighter visions and more
pleasant thoughts when the last offices have been per
formed by the processes of Cremation rather than earth
burial. The Crematorium makes visits to the home of
the remains oftener and easier.
