U.S. TO DEMAND ACTION
BY DE FACTO OFFICIALS
Carranza's Dilatory Tactics and
Inability to Copo With Situ

AMERICAN FORCES IDLE
By WILLIAM D. HASSETT
Washington; Oct ib. Specino de
mand that tha time haa come for a "show
own" on border protection has been mada
by the American commissioners on tha
Mexican delegation In session at Atlantlo
City. This becamo known here today, da
rite diplomatic) denials at the State De
partment. Omclals have become weary of the dila
tory tactics of Carranza and his Atlantlq
City coplmlssloners. Two months of par
leylng have accomplished pothlngy Carrania
first Insisted upon the vie discussion of
thi question of the withdrawal of General
.Pershing's expedition from Mexican soil.
But the commissioners dodged that Issuo.
There was a sort of perfunctory discussion
of border patrol. The Mexicans, however,
have made no tangible progress or even
promise as to the security of Americans In
their own territory, simply Insisting that the
di facto Government was strong enough, to
control the situation.
Carranza's demand for the withdrawal
ct Pershing's cblumn was at all times
predicated upon the assumption that "Villa
was dead or his power broken. But Fran
Cisco Villa's activities In the last ton days
dispels all report of his taking oft. True
to his promise, he Beems about ready to
recapture Chihuahua City. This wa the
threat he made after occupying that strong
hold on Hidalgo day, September 16.
Carranza's forces, under Goncrat Trovlno
at Chihuahua, have not turned a- hand
to capture Villa. The American troops,
under threat of attack by Carranza if
they take up the chase, remain Inactive
for the most part concentrated at Colonla
Dublan. With real co-operation from Car
ranza. War Department omclals declare
they could make quick work of Villa,,
In these circumstances tho Administra
tion has been forced to demand action from
Carranza, Officials declared his failure to
act can only be taken as admission that
he no longer cont:ib the military forces In
Mexico City.
Meanwhile tho dissatisfaction which has
long prevailed among his commanders In
the north has manifested Itself nt the very
doors of Mexico City In the movement led
by General Felix Diaz. Advices received
here today declare Diaz and Carranza's
northern commanders, at tho right time,
will make common causa against tho First
Chief.

With his power fast' crumbling, It la be
lieved here that General Carranza's hurried
departure to Queretaro, accompanied by his
Minister of War, General Obregon, Is next
to the final step to his exit from Mexican
politics. Especially does this belief gatn
ground since the wives of both Carranza
and Obregon already have sought safety in

VILLA INTRENCHES, LAYS SIEGE
TO CHIHUAHUA; FEAR SPREADS
KIj PASO, Tex., Oct, 25, The city of
Chihuahua, capital of northern Mexico, is
virtually In a state of siege today.
On the southern and western sides of the
' olty, about five miles from the outskirts,
heavy forces of Vllllstas are Intrenched,
The residents of the city are panic-stricken,
tearing another attack, United States Gov
ernment authorities learned.
Villa's action In throwing up earthworks
outside Chihuahua City puzzles military men
here. By many It Is believed he Is equip

GERMAN EMPIRE
READY TO MEET
PEACE PROBLEMS
Whole Economic Structure
of Nation Must Be Read
justed After War
WAR LOAN A SUCCESS
By ERNST KAHN
Special Cahlt to trie livening Ledger.
BEIILIN, Oct. J5. Germany Is prepar
ing for the day when peace will compel a
readjustment of the empire's whole economic
structure. Already the Government, recog
nising the problems that must be met, has
appointed a special commission, whose task
will be to smooth the transition from war
to peace. The problems of this commission
will be) (a) How to find employment for
the millions of German soldiers released
from military service J (b) how to provldo
raw material for German Industries, and (c)
how to'put abundant credit at the disposal
of the middle classes.
Even the most optlmlstlo financial au
thorities were surprised at the prodigious
demand for the fifth German war loan.
Total subscriptions aggregated 10.760,000,
000 marks. Statistics of Individual sub
scribers attest to the genuineness of these
figures: 3,500,000 persons participated In
tho offering. In contrast to the English
method, tho German banks never subscribe
for war loans.
The life of the coal syndloato, which was
nearlng oxplratlon, has beon renewed until
1022. It now controls virtually the whole
coal Industry In the empire. Including the
governmental mines. Prussia has purchased
one of tho largest coal properties In Ger
many, and IS now tho strongest member of
tho syndicate. The wholo transaction Is
typical of the Government's liking for In
dustrial combinations.
As a consequence of the better fodder
crop, llvo stock supplies are rapidly grow
ing. On September 1 there were 17,260,000
pigs In Germany, against 13,260,000 In
AprIL Tho supply, howeer, Is still far
short of tho 21,760,000 pigs owned It) Sep
tember, 1914. Cattle, too, are Increasing,
with n gain of 417,000 head since April.
Milk and meat production Is still poor, In
consequence of last year's crop failure.
A combination of leading financial In
terests hns founded a potato-growing com
pany, with n purposo of Increasing the pro
duction of this stnple.
Chemical companies nre prospering. Twen
ty Important concerns In this business
earned profits of 141,000,000 marks laBt
year, against 107,000,000 tho preceding year.
ENGLISHMAN SCOUTS
TRADE WAR ON KAISER
Economic Laws Would Make
After-War Boycott Boomerang
Diplomat Admits
WASHINGTON, Oct 26. The great
"war after the war" may never come to
pass.
'A British diplomat In Washington today
declared his belief that the proposed allied
trade campaign against the Ceneral Powers
outlined at the Paris economic conference
cannot be carried out successfully. This
Is the first time nny one actively Identified
,wlth the British Government has maae
sucn an admission.
Lord Bryce. for, some time British Am
bassador to the United States, In a recent
speech, came out very strongly against
such a trade war as that outlined at the
Paris conference, and economic writers of
England and tho United States have called
It Impracticable of application.
Tho program for boycotting the Central
Powers, tho British offlctal said today, can
not be successfully carried out on account
of tho economic laws pf supply and demand,
transportation Inequalities, cost of produc
tion, labor and material supply and all tho
other determinates which directed trado
channels before the war. Should a serious
effort be made to carry out the scheme. It
would operate to the economic disadvantage
of the Allies as well as that of the Central
Powers. This opinion was expressed when
the question pf the possible effort of such
a trade war upon the United States was
put to the official.
At the time of the Paris conference, Ger
man omclals believed the program was
outlined at leaBt partly as a threat against
tho Central Powers when peace terms were
discussed. The possibility of Its applica
tion was at best problematical.
CORN CUTTERS GET BIG PAY
Chester Harvest, Heaviest in Years,
Proves Costly
WEST CHESTER, Oct. 26. Corn cutting
Is costly In Chester County, and the men
demand five cents per shock as the lowest
figure, while many are being paid six and
seven.
At six cents the a erase man at the work
can make from 93 upward per day, Includ
ing his meals at tho farm. The crop Is a
large one and the grain Is heavy, hence the
demand for Increased pay for the work.
More corn was grown In the county than
for many years.

GERMANS RUSH FORCES
FROM THE S0MME TO HALT
FRENCH DRIVE ON MEUSE
PARIS. Oct. 26.
Violent fighting was In progress all night
on the Verdun front, with the Germans
trying to recover ground they lost to the
French east of the Mouse on Tuesday.
Terrific counter-attacks were driven home
by the Oermans at Uaudromount quarries
and In the Damloup sector, but all were re
pulsed, tho War Ofllco stated today. The
ofllclal communique says that the French
hold all tho ground they gained in the big
offensive movement.
The German commander of Fort Douau
mont was captured during the night fight
ing along the shell-torn slopes of that work.
After the capture of tha greater part of
the work a few Germans, along with their
leader, held out. This remnant of the Ger
man garrison was attacked during the night.
All that were not killed wero made prison
ers by the French.
The outbreak of fighting on the Verdun
front came after a lull of many weeks. Tho
big advance of the French Indicates that
the Germans were taken completely by sur
prise. General Nlvelle delivered a powerful blow
over a four-mile front and at some points
tho French pushed forward their lines
two miles. ,
The night fighting amid the blasted bar
ricades nnd the huge shell craters was a
spectacular sight. Under tho glare of hun
dreds of "star bombs" the Teutons charged
against the French lines, but to no avail.
Behind the French lines tho dull red glow
In tho sky told where the French artillery
was pounding away at the Germans. In
front of the lines the white, red nnd green
glares of star and signal bombs were
mingled with the flashes of bursting shells.
German reinforcements aro being rushed
up to the Verdun front to meet the new
French offensive.
In response to the Crown Prince's appeal
for help, tho Teutons are shifting regiments
back from the Sommo to the Verdun front.
German units from the Somme battlefield
arrived before Verdun yesterday while the
French were smashing their wny northward,
but too late to take part In tho day's ac
tion. General Nlvelte's lightning stroke accom
plished a twofold purpose. It definitely
removed the German menace to Verdun and
It halted the massing of a huge German
army on the Bapaume-Peronne line for a
great counter-attack on tho Somme.
SOMME ATTACKS HALTED;
D0UAUM0NT FORT BURNED,
GERMAN STATEMENT SAYS
BERLIN, Oct. 25.
"On tho east front of Verdun," tho Wnr
Omce nnnounced this afternoon, "a French
attack until tho burning of Fort Douau
mont gained terrain. Fighting continues."
The text of tho statement on the west
ern, front follows:
On account of rainy weather yester
day tho fighting nctlvlty In the Somme
sector diminished. Only tho artillery
fire Increased temporarily.
In the evening hours partial French
nttacks from tho Les Boeufs-Rancourt
lino broke down with losses before
our barricades, without success.
On tho northeast front of Verdun, a
French nttack until the burning of
Fort Douaumont gained terrain. The
fighting continues.
The German ofllclal statement Is taken
to Indicate that, the Crown Prlnco ordered
Fort DOouaumont burnod In the face of
the French attack reported by Paris last
night.
INTENSE ARTILLERY ACTIONS
ALONG WHOLE ITALIAN FRONT;
TWO TEUTON AEROS DOWNED
ROME, Oct. 26. "Atong the whole front
yesterday there were artillery actions,"
said the official announcement given out
here last night. 'These engagements were
particularly Intense on the Aslago Plateau,
In tho Sugana Valley, at the head of the
Vanol Clsmon, In the Fellzon and Bolte
Valleys, in the Plava sector of the Middle
Isonzo and on the Carso.
'Taking advantage of the fine weather,
the aircraft were active. An enemy aero
plane was shot down by our aviators and
fell in flames near Blblla, southeast of
Gorlzlo. Austrian hydroplanes dropped
bombs over the Caorle Lagoon, at the
mouth of the Tagllamento, without doing
any damage. A French aviator belonging
to one of our squadrons succeeded In de
stroying one of the enemy machines."

waged, the clause which during alt the
years since the federation has been organ
ized, has kept the women suffrs gists si
lenced, and which Is proposed to wipe out,
reads s
No sectarian or political test Is re
quired, and no club or society, designed
for such a purpose, shall bring Its dis
cussions or Its subjects Into any annual
meeting of the State Federation, ex
cept by unanimous consent
Since the convention at Wllkes-Barre
last year at which woman suffrage was In
dorsed, It has been discovered just what
the words "unanimous consent" In the
constitution mean There are a few nntl
suffragists In the federation's membership
a few, but very much "antl" nnd one of
them, the suffragists havo found, can keep
the question forever out of the discussions,
backed, as they are, by that clause.
STAND AGAINST CHANGE
Tho proposed constitutional change, how
ever, was not broached until today, the
suffragists having cleared the decks for
action by getting out of the way such
agreeable questions as child labor, mothers'
pensions nnd private charities. Mrs. Wil
liam Anderson, of Asplnwall, Pa., brought
the resolution for the constitutional change
Into the convention.
When she was preparing to present It,
Mrs. Horace Brock, of Lebanon, former
president and now honorary president of
tha federation and active very active
president of tho Pennsylvania Association
Opposed to Woman Suffrage, moved down
to the front of tha house. When the ques
tion was ready to be put, Bhe made her
first stand for tho preservation of the con
stitution. "I havo a lady friend whose husband Is
a lawyer," she cald, "and from her I havo
learned that when you Informed tho dele
gates that you were going to consider
changes In the bylaws, you cannot legally
consider changes In tho constitution and
the standing rules."
BACKED BY ROBERTS
Mrs. Anderson was prepared. She took
from her pocketbook a letter addressed to
her by Oeneral jtobcrts, author of the Rules
of Order. Sho had written to him and his
letter nnswered that her stand was legal.
Sho read It.
'That does not cover the question," re
plied Mrs. Brock. "I have tho word of my
lady friend whoso husband is a prominent
lawyer, nnd I havo also learned from a
lawyer, whose name would be perfectly
familiar If I disclosed It, that this Is Il
legal." Mrs. Ronald P. Gleason, of Scranton,
chairman of the convention, Interrupted:
"I would like to ask," she said, "whether
or not this technicality of calling the con
stitution 'by-laws' should bo permitted to
prevent the consideration of this resolu
tion?" CALLED ILLEGAL
"Well, my lady friend," said Mrs. Brock,
"Informs me that It Is Illegal and prominent
lawyers havo told me It Is Illegal."
Mrs George W. White, also n fighter
against woman suffrage, corroborated Mrs.
Brock.
"I do not think this Is a mere technical
ity," sho asserted. "It Is more than a tech'
nlcallty."
Mrs. Hugo Rosenberg, of Pittsburgh, re
plied to her. "We have had this notice a
long time," sho said, "and no objection of
any kind has been ma;. I want to say
that the person attempting now to invoke
this cloture process Is guilty of the very
thing for which we women have anatho
matlzed Congress. It Is a shame to at
tempt to choke oft the real meaning of this
federation. Even judges on the supreme
bench will nllow the Intent of a thing."
ONE VOTE AGAINST
Mrs Brock then offered an amendment
to the resolution which sought the con
sideration only of the standing rules and
by-laws. A standing vote was called for
and nine women Btood. The original mo
tion then was put and carried. Mrs. Brock
was the only woman standing against It.
Tho suffragists had won. The "consideration
of the resolution" will be tho "first order
of business tomorrow morning."

Chandler Price
Will Advance
December First
THE price of the famous Chandler Six will be advanced December 1st,
1916, and the present Chandler Model in every essential way will bo
continued for the forthcoming season. We have always listed the
Chandler car at the lowest possible price consistent with manufacturing costs
involved in producing this'high grade automobile.
We had hoped earlier this season in spite of advancing costs of mate
rial to bo able to continue the present $1295 price. But conditions in the
industry have now come to a point where this is impossible.
Our production costs today arc fifteen and one-
quarter per cent (15) 'higher than one year ago.
Our profit margin per car has always been small. And the price must,
therefore, be advanced to make compensation for increased production
charges.
You may purchase your Chandler car nowwith the assurance of a
marked saving in purchase price, and with the equally important assurance
that your Chandler car, purchased now, will be up-to-date nextspring.
Distinctly superior Chandler features Include the "Marvelous Motor," which, with
minor refinements from time to time, has distinguished the Chandler car fer four years
Bast and which will be continued in the forthcoming series fer next season; genuina
;osch hlgh,tension magneto, the highest priced and most eScient form of ignition: Gray
