A meeting of Ithe missionary de partment of the Woman's Union of the FirsD Congregational church Iwill be held at the home of Mrs. Robert J. Hendricks, 49o North Summer street, on. Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock,,; It is to be a "thanks offering" meet ing and all those who have thanks boxes are requested to turn them in. of General Cadorna's Tagliamento riv er defenses and have been cheeked there in their forward advance, accord ing to the interpretation placed here this afternoon on Berlin's own official statement. The greatest menace to Italian safe ty indicated in dispatches today was the flanking movement well under way near the Carnic Alps, directed bv an Austrian army under General von Kro batin. This force is making a desperate thrust to turn the Italian position on the upper course of the Tasliamento. Success of such an operation would threaten the whole Tagliamento line and torce a further Italian retirement possibly to the -line of the Piave river. According to the Berlin version, the invading forces have already captured 120,000 Italians nud 1000 guns. Today is me ninin ciay 01 tno drive. in the first four davs tho captures amounted to 100,000 prisoners and 700 tuns., The five succeedine davs brought i.puiy sv.uuu.raen ana 3UU euus indicat- lot bS, Hijuiiuiuua slowing np in tne oilen .vunljower cir inc enemy. .,J(i7nyie,iday8, the uerman-Austrin in Tfasipu,, lias, seized more than 1200 square miles of Austrian and Italian territory, formerly held by the Italians and, penetrated at some places as far as, rony( miles from the old positions. Rome.., dispatches today told of a marked relaxation of the German pres sure on the center of Cadorna's line, due undoubtedly to lack of railways . Berlin claimed to have stormed the , eastern, bank defenses of the river at JJignao and Codripo. nBut as Londo read , in between the lines, General Ca- dorna has succeeded in establishing muiseii on tne west oanlt or that do tensive waterway. The greatest apprehension, however, was aroused. here over Berlin's claim of the capture of 60,000 soldiers in the section where it was known General Cadorna's third army was seeking to escape irom the vise like srrin of Gen eral von Mackcnsen's armies between him and the coast line. One section of the German official statement Seemed to indicate that Ital ian forces were successfully covering me reircat ox this army, but the Ger man announcement that 60,000 Italian soldiers had surrendered, if confirmed, would seem to indicate a crushing blow 10 tmg xorce. - "The Italians retired fighting to the western bank of the Tagliamento," the Berlin war office declared, "at the Pouzano, Dignano and Codroipo bridge heads violently resisting and covering the retirement of the tird army.' "The bridgehead positions at Dig nano and Codroipo were stormed and we penetrated from the north the rear guard positions east of tho Lower Tae- liamento. ' ' (Dignano is approximately 14 miles nearly due west of Udine. directly on the Tagliamento river. Codroipo is about the same distance from Udine, slightly more to tne south, and is located on the river Taglio about five miles dis tant from the Tagliamento. Pouzano does not appear on available maps.) Washington Opinion Washington, Nov. 1. The great bat tie of the northern Italian plains is swinging into the first stages of its erisis today. With von Mackensen's hosts now within range of the Taglia mento river at some points, General Laaorna must soon indicate his plan of derense along that line.

Complete plans for reinforcing Italy will be made at the conference, it. is said. No matter how successfully Ca- dorna checks von Mackensen now, the Germans must be driven out of Italy entirely, military attaches here declare. Otherwise, they would have establish ed a base for desperate assaults on Italy, Russia and possibly France next spring.

The British prime minister declared his belief that the blow of invasion "had served to unite all Italians in de fense of their native land and in the common cause of civilization based on liberty." "It is a source of real satisfaction," the British statesman declared, "that the iriendship of the Italian and Brit ish nations is about to be cemented by eo-oporation of their armies, together with these or tne ganant ii-encn on the same battlefield. I am confident the allies will stem the tide of the enemy advance in due course- The back-roll is coming." Mount Angel Child Is Badly Injured Mt. Angel, Or., Nov. 1.
