FEAR OF FLOODS HAS LARGELY PASSED Property Liss, However, Will Be Swollen to Aggregate of Fifteen Millions Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 31. Fear of floods in many towns threatened by the breaking of ice gorges in mountain streams and rivers in Ohio, West Vir ginia and Kentucky abated todav, though at some points there is still serious danger.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 31. The Ohio Invitation to Revolt Against Kaiser's Autocracy Ssems To Be Bsarfog Fruit By J- W. T. Mason (Written for tho United Press) New York, Jan. 31. The invitation of the Bolsheviki to the German work ingmen to revolt against the kaiser's imperialistic government has won 'its first' serious success. The formation of a workingman's council in Germany demanding the right to negotiato with the govern ment is due to the influence of the German democracy. When workingmen in a semi-autocratic country like Ger many form central committees and in sist that they be recognized by the government as spokesmen for labor, that is tho beginning of revolution. The extent to which the revolution may be carried depends' on the deter mination of tho leaders and the spir it of the people. To predict is unnecessary; rather must the developments speak for them selves. The fact is important, howev er, that the anti-governmental move ment in (iermnny is both economic ana political. The workingmen .are strik ing, not only for higher wages, but also as a protest against continuing the war to realize Pan-German ambi tions. A union of aims such as these is al ways, in itself, a sign of revolution. The kev to the immediate develop ment of events in Germany is undoubt edly at Brest-Litovsk. Nothing could nave nappencu xo give more sirensiu to Trotsky's position than the Ger man strikes coming on the eve of the re-oponine of peaco negotiations with Russia. Trotsky's prestige has been enormously lncrt'ased. Me can claim that tho working people of Germ-any are endorsing him and repudiating their own negotiators. OPEN AIR - DIPLOMACY By Eobert J. Bender (United PreBs staff correspondent) Washington. Jan. 31. Unrest in Germany and particularly in Austria- xiungary is attributed bv high gov ernment officials today to "open air diplomacy. " (Jontulential reports show that, a grave situation is lacing the Austrian government in the demands of its peo ple to throw off the militaristic yoltc of the Pan-Germans. This movement has been encourased for several weeks by the wide distri bution of this country's war aims throughout Austria-Hungary. For the first time America has a means of reachin? the cars of the Austrian pop ulace. As stated by the 1 United Press re cently, the United States has been car rying on a propaganda in the open with Austrlams and Bulgarians, as well as the Russians, to show them that victory under the Pan-Germans means ultimate disaster for these countries. Confidentiarreturns, showing the ef fect of this "moral offensive," have greatly encouraged President Wilson. Too much hope should not be plac ed in the German strikes, officials warn, because tho strong arm of the Teuton military forces still controls; but in Austria there is ground for con fidence in tho outcome, it is stated- In addition to tho great strikes, widespread dissatisfaction is reported among the Czech and Slovane soldiers. The Czechs and socialists have openly demanded also that Count Czernin try to open up direct negotiations with President Wilson on peace. The feeling is growing throughout the empire that this 1 country's war aims leave tho Austro-Hungarians lit tle to fight about. President Wilson's avowed determination to have Ameri ca give and receive pledges that will assure national security for all has made a deep impression on the Aus trian working class, official reports show. It is agreed among high officials here that the allies must now. more than ever before, present a solid front against Germany and meantime car ry on the work of educating the Ger man and Austrian peoples in the real purposes of the allies and the sinister ones of the central empire rulers. ! river, held back by an ice gorge at JHadison, ind., is at noon stage ami riwintr en rmtwllv flint families on Hnnth 'side avenue, Riverside, appealed today to the police to rescue them from their homes.

Kow Co-, Cleveland, a CONNIE HACK'S TEAM BOUNDFOR CELLAR Once Famous Manager Will Enter Race TMs Year with Only Green Bus'iers By H. C. Hamilton (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Jan. 31. Tho Athletics the poor old down-trodden, derided and ridiculed Athletics. They're bound straight for the cellnr of the American league this year. There isn't a chance that any other team will go down hill to such an extent thnt the Athletics will be able to save themselves. At the opening of last season Connie Mack trotted out an aggregation of youngsters, mixed in with older stars, who put up a fair brand of baseball. They gave promise of rounding some day into shape to really play ball. In fact, predictions were made thnt in 1918 Mack would have a really credit able team to regain the honors former ly held by the great Athletics. First came the army draft and en listments and they wrecked the first line defenses of the younger players. Drafts and enlistments simply stripped the youthful team of its good material. Then the big crash camo with the Sale of players by Mack. He seemed to just pick out tho very best he had in ex perienced ball players and slip them to his old rival Boston. What Mack will have on hand when the American league season opens is a mere conjecture. These will be a lot of youngsters, of course. He has several young pitchers who have Bhown fairly well, and he has one good catchor in Pat Haley. Aside from that tho inner works is shot. Ping Bodio will be in a class by himself in the outfield. There is no speculation on what will happen this year to the Athletics. They .will take tho chutes as if they were greas ed. Connie Mack has said that the crit ics may be mistaken in decluring him completely out of it so early, but there is small chance that such is the case. Game Was Close. Seattle, aWhs., Jan. 31.

Changes in tho physical requirements for men of tho national army by which thousands who have been or would be rejected under the first regulations can now bo accept ed for service, were announced by Pro vost Marshal General Crowder. ' Tho modifications indicates 'that the war department i& determined to hold for service cither general military or special all men registered except those whoso physical condition can never be remedied to make t'1 fit for any kind of service. Physical defects tlutt can bo remedied and make tho men fit for service will be remedied or the men put into some special work, not so rigorous as trench j fighting, Crowder says. Height and weight requirements were j both lowered and increased. Flat foot j or club and claw foot and several foot ! troubles no longer aro causes for re-1 jection and local boards are ordered to "reject no foot cases." Any rejections for these troubles must bo made by the medical advisory board. Chances for rejection for eye and ear defects were greatly lessened and the dental requirements were modified. Her nia and similar troubles, the cause of many rejections, under the first draft, must be very serious to win rejection. Onl complete nasal obstruction will re ject, which means that adenoids and en larged tonsils art? no cause. The minimum height for men of the army was lowered from 61 to f8 inches by the now regulations, although all the cases of men between 58 nnd i0 inches must be referred to tho medical advisory board by tho local physicians, Prnctically nil the maximum height restrictions were removed indicating that Uncle Ram sees no reason why the giants should not fight. The old regulations placed the limit at six feet three inches, but the new orderB provido that men above six feet six inches, may be accepted if they are well proportion ed. The weight minimum was lowered from 110 to 100 pounds, although these whose weight is less than 100 pounds because of illness are to bo held for ser vice pending bettr health. Only ex treme cases of obesity aro to cause over weight rejection. Registrants in good physical condition but under the weight requirement for certain heights are to be accepted. Spinal troubles must interfere serious ly with weight bearing power to cause rejection and the wearing of a plaster jacket will not of itself disqualify the registrant. Color blindness will no longer be a cause for exemption. If a man has six good teeth on each jaw he will be taken. Formerly if three were missing the mnn would be rejected. Venerial diseases will reject only while' smoking a ci'inrcttc in bed. The Knirvi.w h'.M is use.l ehirflv' bv the Mountain Cooper company to li"use its workmen. Most of thne injur ed were Italians..
