LONDON, Jan. 30 Sweeping claims of military successes along virtually the entire eastern fropf, ex cept In tho extreme north arc made In ati official report today from tho Austrian war office. It Is asserted that In Poland, on tho Warsaw front, In Galicia, Itukowlna and northern Hungary, the Auitro-Gontian allies are battering down the Russian re sistance. The rearward communications of tho IlusKlans In Galicia arc threat ened tho report rays, by tho Austrlans whllo tho Ilusslan forces which In varied Itukowlna and northern Hun gary have been unsuccessful and In Poland the trenches of the Austro German armies are approaching tho Warsaw forts. In Mast 1'iussla No mention is made or I-'ast Prus sia, which, nccordlng to I'ctrograd reports now Is menaced by a now of fensive movement on the part of the ftusslan army of invasion. Reports from the war office recently havo In dicated that the Austrlans have gained sonic advantage in tho fight inc In tho Carpathians, but neither tho Ptrograd nor Berlin statement has shown important changes on the. War saw front. Dispatches from Home and Paris state that the Russians havo In flicted a defeat on the Turkish army which invaded l'ersia and have rc occupled Tabriz. Tho German war office, In its an nouncement of today asserts that tho Russians havo been defeated In two minor engagements In Kast Prussia, as well as In a night attack near Dor jlmow. In Poland. On Western Kront In Franco tho heaviest fighting Is toward the eastern end of the line.

Unchanged, SAN LI TOSI AGAIN N HANDS OF CARRANZA FORCES DEADLOCK SENATE Government Ownership of Mines and Natural Resources Cure for Riots and Strikes Blames Associated Press for Only Carrying Operators' Side of Controversy. NBW YORK, Jan. 30 Amos IIbA chot, a Now York'attorney, before t'hS Industrial Rollcfv"Conimliwlon torfiyj declared that government ownership of mines and other natural resource which aro tho foundation of Industry and labor was tho "only doctrlno n which thcro is any hope" for tho al leviation of Industrial evils. Theso resources were at present controlled by monopolies, he said, and this con trol resulted In restriction of labor and employment. Mr. Plnchot favored collective bar gaining and tho recognition of tho union ns tho only means of breaking tho system of so-called benevolent absolutism. Duly of Unionism "Tho real duty of labor unionism Is to co-operato with all Intelligent citizens in forcing tho public to realize tho paramount necessity of increasing tho total of productive In dustry so that a point will be reached whero employers will be bidding against each other for men Instead of men bidding against each other for employment." Tho bottom of tho trouble. Mr. Plnchot held, was that "a condition of restriction exists which .limits Indus try and thcreforo llniftt'tho amount of labor." The influence of public opinion could only be Justlly exerted, he said when the public was put In posses sion of tho facts. He declared that there was no element which gives labor a feeling of suc.li helplessness and bltferncss as Its knowledge that tho merits of its side of tho question will not bo presented to the public through the press. .soclutel Prets Cciwureil The Associated Press. In particular, ho said, failed to carry nows relating to labor troubles In an impartial manner and "takes the affirmative side of tho case." He declared that tho Associated Press reported a riflo attack by mine guards from nn armored train upon n miners' tent colony at Holly Grove, West Virginia, "as If tho miners had mndo an unwarranted attack upon a passenger train." As "another typical lUBtanco of op pression and perversion of nowa" by tho Associated Press, ho compared testimony of Charles P. Moyor, presl dontn of tho Western Federation of Miners beforo tho congressional com mittee which investigated tho Michi gan coppor strike troubles, with what he declared to bo an Associated Prons account, both referring to circum stances surrounding Moyor's depar ture from the mine district tor Chi cago. Instance Are Cited "Hoth In tho West Virginia and' Michigan strikes tho Associated Press grossly misrepresented the real con dition of affairs, ' said Mr. Plnchot. "This was duo in part to tliu fact that In West Virginia It got its informa tion from a man identified with tho coal companies, whllo In Michigan, durng a largo part of tho strike, the Associated Press recolvotl Its Infor mation from two newspaper offices controlled by tho mine operators, PEACE MIES RALIUGII, K.
