SET PLANS FOR SORTIES Barrage and Artillery Fire Both Usually Used to Isolate Sec- tor to Be Attacked. WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.—Ameri- cans captured by the Germans in the trench raid on the morning of Nov. 3 probably were caught in dugouts and forced to surrende: or be bombed with hand grenades. This is the only explanation which occurs to | army officers today, lacking any de- tails of the fight. Gen. Pershing’s brief report merely stated that the German artillery had dropped a heavy barrage fire around a sector of the trench, cutting the men off from the rest of the line. The fact that one wounded German was captured indicated that’ the trench had been re-occupied by the American forces. Shell Could Have Wounded All. Whether the men _ killed and. their injuries in| hand-to-hand fighting or were! struck by shrapnel is not known. A’ single shell, scoring a direct hit in’ the trench, might have caused all the casualties. The raiding same. general all It practice of trench | along the front is the. has been customary for | German raids to/| carried out with an intense bar- rage fire used to isolate the small | sector of the enemy line which it | ‘was planned to invade.

Presumably an Advance Post, Presumably the American trench raided was an advance post. With only 20 men in it, it could not have had a front of more than fifty or feet.

The thin line of communicating trench would be from With 20 men on a small front. provision undoubtedly would be made for relief of ‘sentries, posted on the fire step of the trench and an attack.

Mr. and Mrs. Herman Wambhoff of 1853 Madison street are celebrat- | ing their golden wedding anniversary | ficht | For a Fair Street Railway Settlement Why We Are Willing to P a Gross Receipts Tax This letter comes to us from ‘an Olive street strap-hanger ’’: , ‘‘You say your franchises have no money value to you. “You say any franchise tax is a tax on property you don’t own. “You say a gross receipts tax is a franchise tax. “Yet you say you are willing to accept a settlement that requires you to pay a 3%, $360,000 a year gross receipts franchise tax, in addition to your $660,000 a year general property and paving taxes. “If this $360,000 a year gross receipts tax is a tax on property you don’t own, why are you willing to pay it?” Any inquiry from a patron is entitled to respectful consideration, both by this Company’ and by the City Government. Here’s our answer: This Company stands ready to accept a settlement requiring us to pay a 3%, $360,000 a year gross receipts franchise tax—a tax on franchise values which we legally bought and paid for and which the State took from us without compensation in 1913—BECAUSE WE HAVE AGRFED TO DO IT, in return for certain concessions to be granted this Company by the City Government. _ ~ This agreement was reached last Summer. The Company asked for a conference. The City Government appointed a committee, representing its executive, legal, engineering, finan- cial and legislative departments, to meet with representatives of the Company. Public conferences were held in which every phase of the situation was thoroughly discussed. As a result of these conferences the Company met every demand of the City. All that the Company got in return was the City’s promise of $120,000 a year reduction of our franchise taxes—from $480,000 to $360,000—and a promise of a permit to do business for fifty years subject to City and State regulation. We have already given that promised $120,000 a year tax reduction, with $10,000 a year added, to our car men in increased wages. The following paragraphs from a Globe-Democrat editorial published last week will help strap-hangers and. others to understand what happened: “Then the United Railways Com- pany came before the City petitioning for a settlement of controversies by mutual concessions and the establishment of a harmonious working agreement between the City and the Company. werepractically valueless and its securities far below par. | “The City Government realized that a receivership would be disastrous to the service AND DISASTROUS TO THE MUNICIPAL REVENUES. IT DID NOT WANT TO KILL THE GOLDEN GOOSE. It agreed to a compromise*that would save the Company from the rocks, give the City @ share in the direction of the concern and enable it to draw what it considered a sufficient revenue from the Company. “We said at the time, and we have not changed our mind, that THE CITY DROVE A HARD BARGAIN”. “Its finaneial condition threat- ened a receivership. Bonds to a large amount were coming due. New capital was required to take care of this indebt- edness and to provide for needed exten- sions and improvements. “The attitude of the City: in regard to the general franchises fright- ened capital away. The Company had paid no dividends for years. Its stocks The City Government did indeed. drive a hard bargain—hard on the Company and its employes and hard on the passengers. The City should quit collecting any franchise tax, leaving the whole $480,000 a year to be used for more service and better wages. However, having accepted the City’s terms, for the reason stated, THIS COMPANY STANDS READY TO MAKE ITS WORD GOOD. We are now waiting for the City Government to pass an ordinance giving legal effect to the agreement. The United Railways Company of St. Louis en ae eee WF each Yea? Heese ST.

While the new bridge was being dis- cussed and before that the building of tunnels under fnsiead of building across, cate: with the East Side. I was attracted to the plan by the successful tunneling of) the étream for some 1100 feet by the city at the Chain of Rocks during my term as Mayor. Your paper at the time gave a page to a noted engineer advocating tun- relite instead of bridging. The limestone erate under the river is almost an ideal ¢ondition for this purpose—comparatively the river, ¢heap, permanent and of inexpensive up- | kheep. Even today would ft not be worth considering, with a view of putting North | St. Louis in touch with the other side— the city to be the owner and the passage | free? E. A. NOONAN. Tnreasonable Price Boosting. "lo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As an iflustration of profiteering by the food pirates, I would like to call attention to the following: I bought a can of syrup froni a certain store in this city. The sell- ing price had been marked on the can; the first price was 11 cents; a line had been drawn through the 11 and the figure 13 n the ~ a. express money In St. Louis and Suburbs, per month.50c Out of St. Louis, per month,....+.. 66c Kinloch, Central 6600 “4 time I advocated | to communi- | | NEW YORK IS NOT AMERICA. The Post-Dispatch incidentally has warned the public against the preposterous assertions of New York candidates in Tuesday’s mayoralty elec- tion and that the result of the election would cx- press the attitude of the American people towards the war and would be a mandate to the Govern- ment at Washington. The election of Hillquit, Socialist, who is run- ning on a platform in opposition to the war, would be unfortunate. It would demonstrate or even a near majority, of New York’s popula- tion favors peace at any price. The proportion of New York's voting population willing to vote for a candidate on a peace-at-any-price platform would be determined by the ratio of Hillquit’s vote to the combined vote of the other three candidates. ‘If he wins, the Germans and pro-Germans would be heartened—that’s all. The Kaiser would not capture the country. . Hylan, the “candidate of the Tammany-Hearst combination, has been charged with pro-German views, but he bitterly denies the charge. His election could not be taken, therefore, as an anti- war victory. Mitchel, fusionist, and Bennett, Re- publican, are straight-out supporters of the ad- ministration’s war policy. Even Hilliquit is not appealing to voters solely on an anti-war declaration. His issues are mixed and his followers a blend of many elements. He appeals to the Socialists, regardless of war views and to the poor against the rich. Mitehel, who is trying to center the issue on patriotism in his behalf, is attacked on many charges of corrupt administration and alliance with the interests. Hylan is denounced as a tool of Tammany and Hearst. If the anti-war amd pro-German issue were clearly joined New York’s voice could not be ‘taken as the voice of the American people, be- ‘cause New York is not a representative American ,icity. Of New York’s population of 5,602,841, the {or toreign number 1,927,703 and the population of foreign-born or mixed parentage is 1,820,141. | More than three-fifths of New York's population is either foreign-born or have foreign-born or mixed parents. It is impossible from such a pop- ulation | sentiment. The presidential election was a clear demon- stration that New York does not represent the | nation politically. New York gave an overwhelm- who was elected by a great majority. The country would regret the election of a pro- | German peace advocate in New York, but the vote would not in any sense express American senti- ment nor overwhelming majority to prosecute the war to a successful conclusion. -- -OO@— —- A MENACING SITUATION. All industrial strikes at this time are of grave concern to the country but none is fraught with so great a national menace as the walkout of thousands of workers in Atlantic coast shipyards. News reports from the East tell of a great num- ber of vessels upon which work has been delayed by wage and hour controversies. In one case two freighters ready for launching have been | held in their cradles for several days beoause of | i substituted: then it was changed to 15 conts, then changed again to 18 cents, which was the price I paid for the can. wow there is no justification for such an incréase. This can of syrup was bought at a price that allowed the seller a fair profit if sold at 11 cents. Why should the other 7 cents have been added? The people cannot, and will not, submit to such a practice much longer, and the day ‘of retribution will be a sorry one for the food Shvylocks. H. A. HF. Pecttuderina Millers. "To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. [ noticed in your paper Tuesday that after Nov. 1, 1917, the food administra- tion has a plan to cut off supplies to those satisfied with reasonable margins. | Jianufacturers, wholesalers and other han- | cilers of foods will not be permitted to sell | to distributers who seek undue profit. I hope they ~-''! get after the millers that mre trying to get rich during the war. I know a farmer who sold wheat to three - different mills two weeks ago. At one, sty the wheat tested 59 pounds, and at | tive two other mills the same kind of wheat | tested full 60 pounds to a bushel. The | “heat was hauled the same week and out of the same granary, so there could have | been no difference in the wheat, but only in the miller buying the wheat. The one | testing only 59 pounds made an extra $2.75 above his regular ~rofit. ! hope the Government will keep an eye pn those grafters and puta stoptoit. .- | ONE WHO KNOWS. + 6 ——~ ‘S > " . ? o — -' Nae: a a," . * a ees wt? “te aa Re ash pase pa eA A >: r: . ee’ tal em ant onty Me FOP send ee ee | *.4 — . - * . » adie: os pn ager b ‘ , Y a pedete =o, nits FE 4. manne a a ? . “Ts Pe ee ee | —— _—_ EDUCATING STONE AND LA FOLLETTE.
