Another great artillery duel has de veloped south of Ypres, the war office stated, indicating a renewal of infan try operations on that field. With the British Armies !n the Field, June 11. (U. P.) As a result of the important, in fact, the decisive part played by British airmen in the suc cess at Messines, it is more than prob able that a request will be made to have American military efforts cen tered on aviation. British flying men made possible the Messines victory. In no single en gagement in which the British have participated have the air fighters played so important a part. They do not only "put out the eye" of the German artillery, thereby decreasing its effectiveness fully 80 per cent, but. having driven the German flyers from the air, they hovered over every sector of the battlefront and gave minute di rections as to where and when various units could and should advance.

Delano. Member of the Federal Reserve Board. More than a century ago our forefathers fought for liberty and for the freedom of the seas. Weak though they were in numbers and resources, they fought the greatest power in the world and won a victory. Half a century ago we fought a bitter contest to main tain the principles of the constitution and preserve the Union. Now we are face to face with the reaffirmation of some of these same principles for the benefit of the world. For the first time in over 50 years, the nation calls upon every Ameri can man, woman and child to do his share. For the first time in the lives of most of us we are asked by our govern ment to help. Ten million young men have registered their names for the country's service. The overwhelming majority of these men did this willingly and cheerfully, but there are, in addition to this, some seventy million people of mature age, many of whom have volunteered for military service and a great majority of whom would be glad to register their names and offer themselves to the government for such service as they might be fitted. In .the great cause we have before us every one can do something. Indeed, people are coming to Washington by the hundreds, offering their services to the government freely and generously, but at the present moment, next to the service of the soldier in the field, there is no service that can be rendered equal to that of supporting the government loyally and en thusiastically. The government is offering the people a bond issue of two billion dollars. This means that every man, woman and child, to' do his pro rata share, should subscribe to $20 worth. It means that the average father of a family should subscribe to $100 worth. Let us not fall into the mistake of assuming that somebody else will do his duty and more than his duty; that somebody else will subscribe to these bonds, and that they will be oversubscribed. Let us be sure that we, every one of us, are doing our duty. This is a matter for each indi vidual to decide for himself. Do not wait. The date of the closing of the subscriptions is near. Do not let your neighbor alone bear the burden of the war. Be prepared to contribute your share, and if you cannot be a soldier of the army be a soldier of the treasury.

Shepherd Petrograd. June 11. (U. P.) Presi dent Wilson's message to Russia sounds the keynote of Russian feeling so aptly that it might have come from the lips of the workmen's and sol diers' council. It was so regarded universally in Petrograd today. Russian newspapers did not get ine message until after roidnignt Satur day night, so that no Sunday news papers contained any editorial com ment. A canvass of editors in Petro grad and Moscow, however, indicates that the Russian press generally conservative as well as radical wll approve the message. What hit the popular viewpoint most was the president's phrase inter preting the idea that no territory fchould be transferred without consent of the people therein. The Wllsonian phrases, they held, mignt have Deen uttered by the workmen and sol diers themselves, including President TEcheldie of the council. British Papers Are Pleased London. June II. U. P.) "Mo mentous." "cogent." "inexorable in logic, " "historic" these were some of the editorial phrases with which Brit ish newspapers today hailed President Wilson's message to Russia. Editorials of papers of every shade of politics were united in approbation of the ..-merican executive's argument against return to the status before the war as a possible basis for peace Wilson's "popular" interpretation or the phrase "no annexations and no indemnities" also pleased. The popular verdict was that the American communication was a better exposition of the allies' war aims than the allleB themselves have given to date. Even though, the note was delayed greatly, those In touch with Russian affairs blieved the effect there would be far-reaching. Secretary Lane's . Son Is Seriously 111 Washington, June 11. (U. P.)

The importance of this tax exempt feature in Liberty Bonds Is worthy of particular consideration. The holder of all other forms of personal property or Investment securities is liable for taxation. The combined tax rates throughout the country are said to average nearly 24 per cent, when taking Into consideration all forms of taxation under Federal, State and Local authority. That is, the holder of an ordinary 1000 Investment security might be subject to a tax of f 25.00, more or'less. If he purchases a Liberty Bond, he receives the full 3J4 per cent Interest wtthout consideration for any taxes whatever. On the other" hand, if he holds some form of taxable security, it must necessarily yield him an annual return of nearly 6 per cent, in order to permit him. to pay all the taxes for which be is liable, so that his net income will produce 3'4 per cent.". Therefore, if an investor pays his taxes In full, . he cduld better afford to hold a 3 per cent Liberty Bond than any taxable security yielding less than 6 per cent interest per annum.
