Commenting on yesterday offi cial statement, admitting the French had abandoned the north bank of the Aisne, war office officials Insisted the movement had no strategic Im portance. They reiterated the pre vious claims that the withdrawal was due to the fact floods had torn away the French bridges. Neverthe less It was reported the Germans forced the retirement by taking posi tions close to the river and mounting artil!ey at points where the French tould be shelled effectlvefy.

Warnincs have been sent out by the Oregon fish and game commis ;! to the many deputies to watcn lit VlOlatOfS. 1 I ZUD CIUOS U b-en instructed that the federal law I ill take precedence over the state law. The state laws regarding the uaon for ducks and geese conflict with the Weeks-McLean federal law. Vnder the state law It would be possible to shoot ducks In this coun ty up until February 15 and In some localities as late as April 30. It is because the federal law is uniform that the game authorities believe In iiiforc'ng it. Hunters who shoot aft r today will, therefore, be takrn In to the federal courts Instead of the state courts.
