TUESDAY EVENING,
French troops, declared Andre Tar
dieu, French high commissioner to
the United States, at a dinner In his
honor last night at the. American
; University union. Prof. George Net
jtleton, of Yale University, presided
i ,nd representatives of many Ameri
j can universities and colleges were
| present.
i The dark days are over, but there
i ire hard months ahead. Captain
iTardieu said:
| "The first great battle in which
; your own troops have participated
I extensively has been a great victory.
The part taken by your soldiers is
well known in France. Every one
|at the front, including the enemy.
, knows well what the American
j Army is worth and what new power
! will be let loose in the course of the
j next few weeks under the folds of
i the Star Spangled Banner.
Hard Months Ahead
"The war is not over yet. Hard
I months are ahead of us, but we al-
I ready have taken the initiative. As
far as numbers go the critical times
I are over with us. Under the strong
leadership of a chief who is worthy
iof France—Premier Clemenceau—
.we have held our ground. To-day.
' after some time on the defensive,
the time for a victorious attack has
come and the dark days are over.,
"While greeting the completion of
i the first million American troops in
France we have greeted the first
success. In common with you Amer
-1 icans we and our gallant allies are
standing ready for the supreme effort
; The faith which is inspiring us will
! not falter."
Will Help to the End
William G. Sharp, the American
Ambassador, in response said:
"American soldiers could not help
being brave after such examples of
magnificent courage as displayed by
the French troops. The first million
its here. Another million will follow
with as many millions more as are
necessary to bring the cause of
democracy to victorious peace."
Major Perkins. European Com
missioner for the American Red
Cross, and Prof. Paul Van Dyke, of
Princeton, spoke of the determina
tion of the United States to carry on
the war until victory.

hotel. "But the hotel's not opened
yet," reiterated Louis A. Sholtes, as
sistant construction manager, who
happened to answer the telephone.
"He said he intended to stop at the
Penn-Harris. He always does what
he says, so I know he's there."
The last brick in the walls will
be laid late this afternoon, it is pre
dicted by R. E. Hawes. general con
struction superintendent. The only
brickwork to be done after this will
be the building of chimneys and of
the huge bake oven. This Is to he
fourteen feet square and is being
built under the supervision of an ex
pert baker. Here the toothsome
delicacies for the epicureans who eat
at the Penn-Harris will be prepared.
Three floors are practically fin
ished and are watting for doors.
Doors for the structure were shipped
last week and it is expected that
they will reach Harrishurg by to
morrow. Plasters are hard at work
and are now plastering the dining
room.
In everp department of the work
rapid progress is being made and

valley, along the easterly side of the front, towards the village of
Aubilly. A certain amount of ground likewise has been gained
near the center in the neighborhood of Villers-Agron-Aiguizv.
French Win Ground at Grand Rozoy
I he main advance on the westerly side of the front seems to
have been at lirand Rozoy, about five miles northwest of Fere-en-
Tardenois. The French here are progressing north onto the crest
of the plateau between the Yesle and Ourcq.
[here has been heavy,lighting near Buzancy, five miles south
of Soissons. and also in Plessier wood about five miles further
south. In this latter locality, 4."' prisoners were taken belonging
to three divisions of the enemy now engaged in the Marne salient.
I here are seventy-one such divisions, of which ten belong to the
northern army of Crown Prince Rupprecht, of Bavaria.
1 he enemy s withdrawal is reported still orderly and military,
opinion in London discounts the possibility of any rounding up
of Germans in the salient

began on July 15. The increase in
the number of divisions engaged in
the battle would appear to indicate
ho had since that time drawn heav
ily on other army groups. It also
would seem that this action on his
part reflects the importance of this
battle in the eyes of the German high
command.
Yankees Driven Back
Through the German counter blow
the Americans were driven ba'k
from Clerges. southeast of Fere-en-
Tardenois, while to the northwest
of Fere, the Americans also have
been forced out of Beugneux, into
which they had penetrated
pas-ing through grand Rozoy. •
Buzancy, situated on the west side
of the Crise river, above five miles
south of Soissons. also has been the
scene of heavy fighting, and the bat
tle appears to have been general
along the line south of that point,
notably in Plessier wood, near where
the front turns abruptly to the east. \
On the other end of the battle Une
there have been sharp engagements,
but reports credit the allies with
making an advance at Aubilly in the,
Ardre Valley, west of Rheims. They
also forged ahead farther down to-1
ward the bottom of the pocket, at I
Villers-Agron-Aiguizy.
Blow of Great Violence
While these counter blows against
the allied lines are general and of
great violence, it is not believed in j
London that the enemy intends to
make a real stand south of the
Vesle river. Paris, on the other
hand, seems to believe the Germans
may have fixed upon the present lo
cation t>f their armies as the field up-'
on which they will turn at bay.
There have been patrol operations
along the British front but nothing
significant has occurred there.
Little has been reported to amplify
the Copenhagen dispatch to the ef
fect that Turkey and Germany had
broken off relations. Amsterdam
advices, however, indicate Turkey
intends to pursue an aggressive
policy in the Caucasus region, the
field supposedly set aside for Ger
man exploitation. This may carry
a measure of confirmation for the
rumor that the quadruple alliance
has broken over the division of spoils
subsequent to the peace treaties with
Russia and Rumania.
Lighting Kills
Boy and Horse
ETiMton, Wvo.— The death from
a lightning bolt of Frank Koontz,
eleven, son of Edward Koontz. a
ranchman of the Bridgar district, is
the fourth from this cause in Wyo
ming in ten days.
The Koontz bov was working with
his father and a horse, snaking logs
out of the timber when the bolt
struck. Recovering conscienceness a
few minutes later, the elder Koontz
found the horse dead and his son
dying, the lad expiring before the
father could summon aid.
Fortunes of War Lead
to Retirement of Well-
Known Passenger Head
The merging railroad facilities
at Hagerstown has resulted in the
removal of the general freight and
passenger departments of the Cum
berland Valley from Chambersburg
and the retirement of H. A. Riddle,
for many years general agent of the
Cumberland Valley. Perhaps there
is no other railroad man so widely
known as Mr. Riddle. He had grown
up with the passenger department of
the Cumberland Valley and was at
the front in its passenger traffic
when the building of the business
was In its infancy. Not only in the
railroad word is Mr. Riddle well
known. There scarcely has been a
single Presbyterian gathering in this
section in which he was not active
in his capacity as one of the elders
of the historic Falling Spring Pres
byterian Church, of which the Rev.
Dr. John Grier Hibben. now presi-
I dent of Princeton 1 Theological Sem
inary, was once pastor. Not only has
Mr. Riddle been earnest in church
work, but Mrs. Riddle and daughter.

TURKEY OPENS ITS
ARMS TO CAUCASUS
[Continued from First l*age>.]
by the treaty, what was more natura!
for us than to take Into consideration
the necessities of this new situation
created on our important eastern
front. Could we close our ears to
the appeal of the government of a
people largely of the same race and
same creed as ourselves?
"We are awar e of the action, and
its present progress, to place under
uerman control Tillis and Baku. That
is a logical consequence of the dupli
cation of the Brest-Litovsk treaty.
How could this treaty be taken into
consideration in the afTairs o'f the
Caucasus, seeing that the Bolshevik
government has not even been ab!
to return to us, in accordance with
the treaty, our eastern frontier and
that in the Caucasus influences en
tirely independent of the Bolsheviki
government have arisen.
This reported attitude on the part
of Turkey may account in part foi
the report received through Copen
hagen that Turkey and Germany hac
severed relations.
Washington. July 30.—N0 official
advices of the reported break in re
lations between Turkey and Ger
many have reached Washington hut
the government would not be sur
prised if Turkey has been driven to
.in open rupture, as there is a well
founded background for the report.
It has been known for snmn
months that a deep and growing feel
ing of dissatisfaction has existed in
Turkey o\er the treatment by the.
Germans. Reports that a Turkish
mission recently has been trying in
Switzerland to cultivate friendship
with some of the allied government''
have been received here. It would
be natural, officials said, for the
Turkish government to endeavor to
find some new friends among the
powers before breaking with its old
associates.
Utah Is Passing Up
Sports For Farming
Salt Lake Clty.-Outdoor sports in
Utah to-day include only such pas
times as planting, hoeing and other
farm work, according to a sporting
authority who has made a canvass of
sport activities throughout the state.
Baseball in Salt Lake City, is the
only game that has managed to sur
vive the ravage of war on sportdom.
There are occasional games between
semi-<pro teams in outside towns, but
these are infrequent and the attend
ance is never large.
Baseball parks are used for graz
ing purposes, according to this au
thority. who says that in some in
stances the growth of grass is so
high that grazing cattle or ship are
hidden. There seems to be not even
a mention of sports in university cir
cles. Fishing, however, still has its
friend, but that is not strictly an ath
letic sport.
Heiress Drives Milk
Wagon During War
Marietta. Ohio. Dorothy Dawes
daughter of Beman G. Dawes, million

Company, has decided to leave a lux
urious mansion in Columbus and "do
her bit" by driving a milk wagon in
this city.
Miss Dawes is the first of the Co
lumbus younger set to take up labor
as a war necessity. James Devol, her
employer, was crisp when reporters
interviewed him.
"Miss Dawes wanted the job and
I hired her said he. "There is a
scarcity of men for the work. Msis
Dawes will receive the regular pay.

VALOR ALONE IS
NOT ENOUGH TO
WIN THE WAR
Chamber of Commerce Hears!
That Economic Conditions at j
Home Aid Victory or Defeat j
"This war will be ended on an eco- t
nomic basis." So declared Dr. Clar- I
ence J. Owens, Wasntngton, manag- |
ing director of the Southern Com- i
i
mercial Congress, in his address at j
to-day's membership luncheon of the j
Chamber of Commerce, held in the J
Board of Trade Building. His sub- j
Ject was "The Importance of the ;
Chamber of Commerce to the Winning
of the War."
Wars have never been ended by I
\alor, by courage, nor by sacrifices
alone, he said. *"Every conquered j
nation has fought valorously, cour- j
ageously and made sacrifices, but they j
have been settled by the breadlines, i
And breadlines will settle this war." i
he added.
The Chamber of Commerce in Har-|
risburg and in the whole United i
States, he believes, must be organized
to prevent the institution of bread
lines in the United States. Their or
ganization with various departments
devoted to various sources of ac
tivity, will do much to establish such
an economic basis that breadlines
will never form in the United States
to bring with them military disaster, ]
he maintains.
The Chamber of Commerce can aid ,
in winning the war by helping the
countryman, too. he said. It should
be so organized that it may co-oper
ate closely with the countrymen so
that their efficiency may be placed
upon as high a plane as possible.
The farmer as an asset to the
world and as a person to be aided by
the Chamber of Commerce, he em
phasized by telling the story of the
farmer, who, after the doctor, the
lawyer, the banker, the merchant and
others told what they had done and
were doing, said:
"And I feed the whole durned
crowd."
"And its almost true," Dr. Owens
] commented.
Speaking on the Federal Farm
Loan, in which he was instrumental
jin having passed, he said: "Some day
that trade follows the flag, but trade
follows the loan."
High tribute to the Yankee soldiers
was paid by Dr. Owens. The Yankees,
he firmly declared, are to be the
weight that will swing the balance
' in this might conflict.
"Joffre stopped the Germans at the
Marne, the Italians stopped them at
the Piave, but the boys in khaki have
; stopped them at the Marne", have
crossed it too. and are driving the
Huns on and on, he said. "They are
going to continue to drive them on
towards the capitals of the Central
Powers in Europe Tintil the conflict
ends." he maintains.
] This mighty war will be of bene
] fit to America, he contends, for it is
a war of ideals. In our great his
tory of 142 years there have been
five great wars, he mentioned.
It is resulting in new ideals of in
terdependesce In Dr. Owens' mind.
"It is teaching- that we must Inter
nationalize the co-operative efforts
of nations and communities of the
earth," the lunchers were told.
Two great Revolutions have been
ended by the united efforts of the na
tions against the Hun. The first rev
olution was ended some months ago,
he said, when, as the boys in khaki
from the north and from the south,
marching side by side, were proudly
saluted by President Wilson on the
reviewer's stand.
I Another Revolution was brought to
| an end. Dr. Owens told his audience,
| "when the boys in khaki from every
I sectios of the United States, in Lon
; don. passed in review and were sa
| luted by King George at Buckingham
| Castle.
I Previous to introducing the speaker
of the occasion. President Andrew J.
I Patterson, of the Chamber of Com
i merce, announced that preliminary
* plans were belsg laid for a Chamber
I of Commeice plcnia
This picnic, President Patterson
said, will be in charge of a commit
tee which includes Mercer B. Tate,
chairman; Boyd M. Oglesby, H. H.
Bowman, J, C. Thompson, " and H.
I'loyd Hopkins. The picnic, Chairman
Tate announced, will be held at the
cabin of John W, Reiiy, near Rock
ville, on Thursday, August 15. Mem
bers will be charged for themselves
and each of their guests at the rate
of 11.50 each.
During the luncheon the first num
ber of the new but bright bulletin
of the "Harrisburg," the official bul
letin of the Harrisburg Chamber of
Commerce, was distributed among the
lunchers.
