Demand For Pennies Greatly Exceeds Supply at Philadelphia Mint Philadelphia, Oct. 30.—50 extraor dinary is the demand for pennies that the United States Mint here, despite the fact that it is working twenty four hours a day, is unable to keep up with the demand. The superint endent of the mint said to-day that the institution is 10,000,000 pennies behind in its orders. An average of 1,500,000,000 pennies are coined each day. There is also a corresponding demand for other subsidiary coins. With the application of the war tax on amusement tickets and other objects of taxation and the annual heavy demand for small coins for the holidays, the shortage is expected to become much greater. New York, Oct. 30.—New York faces a famine in pennies, and the shortage has proved so embarrassing tc Martin Vogel, assistant treasurer of the United States, that he is con sidering an appeal to the city's chil dren to empty their savings banks in order to increase the number in circulation. Ordinarily the Government carries ten million pennies in stock at the Subtreasury in Wall Street, but the institution is now swept'clear of its last copper, for the first time in the recollection of the officials.

General Charles H. Grosvenor. former rep resentative from the Eleventh Ohio District, died at his home litre to day, aged 8> DR. PRUGH CALLS FOR PROHIBITION Temperance Worker Asks President to Intervene During War Dr. B. E. P. Prugh, chairman of the Pennsylvania State Prohibition Committee, with headquarters in Harrisburg, to-day sent a letter to President Wilson appealing to him to "use the power invested in him by Congress to prohibit during the war the use of all foodstuffs in the manu facture of any intoxicants whatever." In his letter Dr. Prugh expresses appreciation of the vast burdens the President is called upon to carry and he calls attention to -the President's appeal to every man, woman and child in the United States to con serve food. He also points to the fact that prohibition of manufac ture and heavy taxes have run the price of whisky so high that many drinkers have turned to beer, and continues: "The natural consequences will be that the manufacture of beer will be largely increased; and since beer uses more food stuffs for its making than whisky, the prohibition of the manufacture of whisky will serve rather to accentuate the shortage of food than to lessen It, because of the increased use of food stuffs in the making of beer. "The fact that enough food stuffs yearly have been taken for the manufacture of intoxicants to have produced daily 11,000,000 pound loaves of bread, If the said intoxi cants had 'been simply harmless, would in such a time of stress have been amply sufficient cause for the prohibition of their use for making drink. When we add to this their fearfully damaging results to the Na tion, the loss of more than 40 lives dally, the expenditure of more than two billions of dollars annually sim ply In buying these beverages, the mass of crime committed for which judges and grand juries have told us at least 80 per cent can be laid at the door of drink, the taxes heaped upon the law-abiding, sober people to pay for wreckage of the saloon, and the immeasurable untold sor rows and suffering heaped upon in nocent families, when we consider all this, Is It too much to ask of you that you use the power vested in you by Congress to prohibit during the war the use of all food stuffs in the manufacture of any intoxicants whatever? 'ln the solution of our food problems, therefore,' is this particular effort, dependent upon you, too much to ask of you at this time, as your 'individual service' to be rendered in your official capacity as the President of all the people?"

Ef forts were being made to-da>< to or ganize. a force and it is expected a report will be made to Council next Tuesday. The ordinance creating the ash and garbage bureau to supervise col lections was passed without amend ment. A chief inspector may be ob tained witjiin a few days it was inti mated but Commissioner Dunkle and Dr. Kaunick both declined to make any more definite announcement than that a report would be made next week. It is plajtned to carry out the sys ; tent worked out by Dr. Raunlck and J used each year in the clean-up oant ! paigns. Gangs of men with teams ! will be sent to certain districts and | will have only that territory to cov er. Disposal of the garbage is not | causing the city officials any worry , should the reduction cOmpatty drop : the work. May Sell Garbage "I am sure we can easily dispose of all the garbage we collect by L>ell ig it," Dr. Raunick stated. "In cas'e we can not dispose of it that way we will find a place to bury it or burn it. , "The removal of the ashes tvill be a much harder problem if the city is forced to do it entirely. There Is an accumulation now in some dis tricts and by November 7 conditions will not be improved I am sure. It will require the co-operations of each resident of the city to make the mu nicipal part of the work successful. Uniformity of receptacles and the proper separation of rubbish from ashes and garbage- will be the first things which the householders can do." To Collect Costs In the resolution passed by Coun cil this morning City Solicitor Fox is authorized to notify the surety com pany that the city will employ a suf ficient force to fulfill all provisions of the contract and will collect the costs front the bond. The ash and garbage collection was the last one called before Coun cil. The collection bureau ordin ance was passed first and then the resolution was introduced.

RESISTANCE OF ITALIAN ARMY IS STIFFENING [Continued from First Pago.] form this help is taking has not yet been disclosed Haids and small operations are very active along the Aisne front and northeast of Ypres in Flanders. Battle Is Resumed The battle in Flanders was re sumed by the infantry this morn ing when the British moved forward to the attack' north of the Ypres- Roulers railroad. Field Marshal Haig announced the renewal of the offensive in his usual laconic style adding merely that the troops weri reported to be' making good pro gress. The line of attack takes in the Passchendaele region, where the re mainder of the ridge of that name and the town itself are nearby Brit ish objectives. The thrust here is also carrying the entente forces on a direct line toward the railway junction point at Roulers, approxi mately five miles distance. Germans Repulsed On the Aisne front in northern France where the French in their re cent advance northwest of Laon have jeopardized the safety of a con siderable section of the German lines, the Germans delivered an attack last night in an effort to push back the French in the region of Cerny. The French easily repulsed this assault. The artillery battle is continuing in the sector in which the French made their advance, where the hos tile forces are now lined up on op posite sides of the Oise-Aisne canal. In the Verdun region General Pe tain's troops last night regained more of the small strip of ground lost in a recent German assault in the Caurieres wood sector east of the Meuse. The first casualty among the American forces on the fighting front in France was reported, in the wounding of a lieutenant of the signal corps. A shell splinter struck the officer in the leg, inflicting a slight wound. Quick Aid Will Be Sent to Italy by United States in Conjunction With Allies Washington, Oct. 30.—The war situation as affected by the over whelming advance of the combined Austrian and German armies under the unrivaled generalship of Von Mackensen, and the concurrent re treat of the forces of General Cador na, has not brought dislieartenment to the allied cause in the view of of ficials In military and other govern ment circles in Washington. The expression is rather one of that optimistic character which often sees good issue from temporary evil. So far as the moral efTect here is concerned, there is no question that it has been one of stiffened resolve. ' There is the belief that the tem porary victory achieved by the enetnv although of marked character, can be overcome by determined resolve. It is recognized that the Italian army made its advance in the face of al most insuperable obstacles and han dicapped by want of supplies. New CJ. S. Loan to Italy So far as this countty is concerned, the crisis means an immediate lend ing of aid to the Italian government. There is every probability that, In stead of creating tremor regarding money already loaned, a large loan will immediately follow. Another move that will be taken will be one to supply Italy with ma terial supplies from 'the United States. Shipping plans will undergo a prompt readjustment to meet the conditions suddenly created.
