Of U. S. on West Line
Amsterdam. Nov. 13. (I. N. S.)
Germany Is already feeling the force
of the United States on the western
battle front, says a dispntch from
Frankfort -on-Main today, 'quoting the
Frankfurter Zeltung.
The paper admits that Germany has
lost the air supremacy on the western
front and attributes the recent heavy
losses of German airplanes mainly to
American aviators fighting with the
allies.
Capt. Berg Again in
Internment Camp
Atlanta. Ga., Nov. 13. (I. N. S.)
Captain Hans Berg, commander of the
prize ship Appam. Is again behind the
bars in the wire prison stockade at
Fort McPherson today after having
been at liberty since October 10.
Berg and Lieutenant Alfred Loescher,
who escaped at the same time, with
eight other prisoners, were returned
early today from Laredo, Texas, where
they were arrested while trying to
cross to Mexico. Only one of the 10
men who escaped is now at laj ge.
A tentative segregation of employ
ment and a wage schedule for all
wooden shipyards' in the Columbia and
Willamette river districts, under di
rections prescribed by the labor ad
justment board, were arranged at a
meeting, Monday right, of the Colum
bia River Shipbuilders' association,
but before publishing the schedule,
members of the association first de
sire to submit it to the board through
the resident examiner for approval.
In view of this and the- short time
the ship builders have had to adjust
their payrolls since the board's find
ings were published, the builders ask
for a slight extension of time over
November 12, the date set forth in the
board's findings for placing into ef
fect the new schedule.
P. J. Hennessey, executive secretary
of the shipbuilders' association, this
morn in said:
"A more or less complete schedule
and wage segregation for the steel
shipbuilding plants has been published
by the adjustment board, but the
wooden shipbuilding plants have been
left, to a great extent, to work out
their own segregation, based upon a
Standard of $6 per day for experienced
shipwrights and $3.25 per day for
laborers and helpers.
"There are a number of other classes
f labor in the wooden shipbuilding
yards which come between these two
classifications, some few of which are
provided for in the schedule arranged
by the board for the steel shipbuilding
plants. Others, however, are left for
adjustment between employers and em
ployes. It Is the spirit of the decision
of the labor adjustment board that all
employes be considered in the readjust
ment of wages, to meet as far as pos
sible the advanced cost of living, and
that In the Columbia river district the
Increase in wage shall be retroactive
to September 6."

"What the army Y. M. C. A. has
not done to make conditions more
bearable at the front was due to
lack of facilities and to the -break In

said.

Theatrical Talent Enjoyed
"Association men, have made It a
great part of their work to scour the
regiments for the best possible theat

wonderful shows through their ef
forts. The pen-formers are all sol
diers, but before they enlisted were
drawing weekly salaries made in three
and sometimes four figures. We wit
nessed a performance by former play
ers at Drury Lane.
"In one of the cities the theatre was
taken over by the military authorities
and turned over to the Y. M. C. A.,
which arranges an almost continuous

Salem, Or., Nov. 13. Senator
Charles L. McNary announced to. lay
that he will leave Thursday for Pen
dleton and other eastern Oregon
points to gather information pertain
ing to the effect of the grain embargo,
and will also give some time to look
ing into irrigation projects and inves
tigating proposed Hermlston canton
ment site.
Last week Senator McNary tele
graphed Herbert Hoover, food admin
istrator, urging that relief be given to
fanners who are prevented from ship
ping their grain to market, by having
the government use the revolving
fund created by the food administra
tion bill to purchase wheat and make
substantial aCvance payments.
Since then' Senator McNary says he
has learned that some farmers who
have been forced to borrow money on
their wheat are paying as high as 10
per cent interest. It Is for the purpose
of eliminating this interest charge
that Senator McNary is endeavoring
to get action on the part of the gov
ernment.
In addition to his personal investi
gations. Senator McNary- has wired
commercial bodies In all wheat grow
ing counties to furnish him informa
tion on existing conditions. This in
formation is to be presented to food
administration In support of his re
quest for government to purchase
wheat.

graph Agency dispatch received here
today.
This Is the first word indicating
that the fighting known to have been
in progress for the past 48 hours
around the capital has actually reached
the city itself.
The dispatch asserted that Keren-
sky's forces now controlled the Nevsky
Prospekt. No details of the battle
were given, but from private reports
it was believed that the fighting had
been sanguinary. The Bolshevik! were
reported by the Telegrapn Agency to
be fleeing to the Smolny Institute,
their governmental headquarters, for
refuge.
Resistance Grows Weaker
The provisional government's loyal
forces deployed down the historic
Nevsky Prospekt and swept through
other thoroughfares.' According to
unofficial reports, the fighting was
from barricade to barricade in the
steets, but with the Bolshevik! mak
ing fainter and fainter resistance as
the strength of the loyal troops was
made apparent to them.
The Smolny Institute was reported
in previous dispatches to have been
put in a state of defense preparatory
to withstanding a siege if necessary.
The Bolsheviki numbered jsailOrs
from the Knonstadt garrison in their
forces and were fairly well armed
with both rifles and machine guns.
Bolsheviki Hot Secognizod
Apparently the fighting centered on
the Nevsky Prospekt' the street
whloh has already been repeatedly
dyed with the blood of various revolutionists-.
It was along this thorough
fare that the czar's guards made their
last stand . against the victorious
duma revolutionists- back in March:
where the .Kronstadt rebels swung
along with their automobiles a few
months later, spattering death, and
along which, during the last week, the
Bolsheviki executed their coud in
seizing control or government ma
chinery.
Estimate of the Bolsheviki strength
received here from sources favorable
to them declared the Trotsky-Lenfne
combination was claiming 50,000 sol
diers and sailors.
All allied ambassadors and minis
ters here today refused to deal with
the Bolsheviki. Dispatches declare
that Maxim- Gorky has refused to sup
port them.
there was an unconditional surrender,
said a dispatch to this city today.
Advices from , the Russo-Swedish
frontier today gave details of the
fierce street fighting which raged in
the Russian capital throughout Sun
day. The fighting centered along the
Nevsky Prospect, the chief street in
Petrograd and one of the most beau
tiful thoroughfares in Europe. Mili
tary cadets, loyal to the provisional
government, rode up and down the
street. -in motor cars in an effort to
clear It of the Maximalist and anar
chist forces, but were taken at a dis
advantage when fire was opened upon
them from machine guns mounted on
the roof of buildings.

Russian Commissioner Hopeful
San Francisco, Nov. 13. A commis
sion without a country arrived in San
Francisco Monday.
The special airplane commission
from Russia, recently dispatched by
the Kerensky provisional government,
reached American shores on the Si
beria Maru only to learn that the of
ficials who called It into existence
had now gone Into the discard in the
international shuffle.
The commission is headed by P.
Stogoff and Includes also Serge
Zviaerulne, Alexander Toutchisoff, B
Slubodinsky and K. Kochirp.
Stoeroff is optimistic. He said'
"Tho overthrow of the Kerensky
government is not to be taken seri
ously by he world. Lenine has the
following of the disaffected anarchist
element in Petrograd, but this will
not carry him on to tho domination
of Russia. 'Kerensky will return."

vember 10) both the Brltlah and
French were able to record significant
tactical gains, the culmination of a
long series of powerfully driven of
fensives.
"In Flanders the British captured
Passchendaele. The high ground of
the main ridge in and beyond this vil
lage fell Into British hands as the re
sult of a well-directed attack by the
assaulting columns of Canadian in
fantry.
Cfatned Positions Are Sold
"With Passchendaele securely in Brit
ish hands the first stage of the opera
tions begun during the last week of
September have been brought to a suc
cessful conclusion.
"The British forces have been forti
fying the positions won and pushing
ahead advance outposts, while to the
north and south forward thrusts along
the elges of the sallent-are being continued.
"The reaction of the enemy has
hitherto been relatively slight.
"The French counterpart of the Brit
ish success took place north of the
Alsne. Here the retreat of the enemy
anticipated last week was carried out.
The pressure of the French offensive,
which has grown slowly and method
ically in volume and Intensity, reached
X climax when by the recent French
advance in this sector they were
enabled to enfilade the German lines
along the orest or the Chemln Des
Dames.
French Cake Progress
Tor the past three years the pres
ence of the enemy on this ridge had
been a source of anxiety to the French.
To dislodge them was a principal ob
jective of the repeated offensives
developed by General Petaln since last
April. The sudden forced evacuation

"The Importance of this successful
French advance must not be over
looked. It means more than a mere
, gain of so many square miles of ter
rltory; it means the penetration of
the powerfully-fortified Siegfried line
hitherto considered by the enemy
Impregnable, and pushes hack his main
defensive positions to within five
miles of the fortress of Laon, the
major objective.
"Along other sectors of the western
front, relative quiet prevailed. How
ever, the harrasslng of the enemy
continues unabated along - the entire
front. The usual artillery duels, the
trench raids and patrol encounters
took place.
"Near Armentleres and east of
Arras the British executed very for
tunate raids, while the French, by
surprise attacks In the neighborhood
of Rheims, in the region of the

customary in trench warfare when
fresh troops are believed to have
taken places in front line trenches)
for reconnalsance purpose, executed a
well-planned,, raid and succeeded in
temporarily penetrating the short
segments of the line held by our
forces, inflicting a few casualties and

"A unit of our artillery, also in the
course of its training came in contact
with the enemy and acquitted itself
very creditably in this first encounter.
"In Italy the situation is developing

To Thin Scrawny People
A PHYSICIAN'S ADVICE
Thin people are often weak, nervous,
sleepless and in addition to suffering
the humiliation of ugly hollows,
scrawny neck and arms and sunken
cheeks, they often become addicted to
tha uso of harmful stimulants and
drags. To Increase weight, strength
en nerves and overcome sleeplessness
there Is nothing to equal the use of
Bitro-Phosphate, which can be ob
tained from any good druggist at
moderate cost. In many esses after
tha first few days the Improvement
in appetite, nerve force, general fit
ness and Increase in weight Is truly
wonderful. (Adv.)
