GEANIAN MAN POWER BEING
OAPPED. BAKER DECLARES
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—Declar
ing that “the week just closed has
been one very favorable to the Allied
" arms,” Secretary of War Newton D.
+« Baker, in his weekly review on war
conditions, today pald high tribute to
both the British and Italian arms.
Germany, he declares, took the of
“ fensive in Italy to extricate herself
from the increasingly difficult position
in which the German arms find them
selves on the west front., This has
tailed, the Secretary says. Summing
up the result and the outlook, Mr. Ba-
Ker sayvs
“It is the wastage of the enemy
« forces— the slow, vet relentless sap
- ping of the man power by continued
and sudden offensive thrusts—which
must eventually result in the soften- |
“ing of his line in the west. This is
. the ultimate objective of the series nt‘
_intensive offensives so successfully
. pursued by the Allles in the past six
months, and is even more important
. than the galn in territory,”
The complets review as made pub
liec by the Secretary is as follows:
“The week just closed has been one
very favorable to the Allied armies.
“The success of the British offen-
Sgive in the region of Cambrai and
~the steady resistance of the Itallans
“in the face of repeated attacks of the
Austro-German forces are two factors
‘ which may be considered as corela
" tive elements of one and the same
. movement.
i Reason for Offensive.
"It is evident the enemy took the
~offensive {n Italy hoping thereby to
extricate himself from the increasing
1y difficult position in which his forces
found themeselves in the west.
< “The German higher command was
“apparently confident that, in order to
‘gave Italy from invasion, such Im
" portant contingents of French, and
_ British troops would he detached from
_the western front as to render any
further Allled offensives in this thé-
Flater impossible,
. “Though the French and British
~“have both dispatched large contin
_gents to Italy, this has in no way
“hampered the continuance of thelr of
_fensive operations.
“It ‘s the wastage of the enemy
sforces, the slow yet relentless, sapping
“of his man power by continued and |
ssudden offensive thrusts, which muatl
“eventually result in the softening of
“his line in the west.
4 “This is the ultimate objective of
“the series of intensive offensives s 0
_suecessfully pursued by the Allles in'
the past six months, and is even more
, importaht than the gain of terrain,
~ “The military situation is dominated
by the spectacular success gained by
the British forces in their thrust to
“ward Cambral.
~ “By adopting new tactical methods,
"’by evolving a strategy daringly con- |
{ceived and brilliantly executed, the
‘British forces have been able to record
@ greater success, when measured by
_captured terrain, than any hitherto
l{fucgieved hy either belligerent in the
“same space of time along the western
~front.
3 Haig's Success.
. “While seemingly continuing his
Loffensive engagementg in Flanders by
‘intensive artillery bombardment in
‘the sector stretching from Ypres tol
‘the North Sea, Field Marshal Haig |
‘was able to mask successfully his
_plansg for an offensive thrust between
ghe Scarpe River and St. Quen‘gn.
g “The usual preliminary artillery
preparation was dispensed with. The
Qlementa of surprise so essential to
‘wyictory placed a large part in the
éaugg‘lm gained. .
. "“The British, by a preponderant
,gmmeflca.l superiority in men and ma
“terial, by limprovising the. skillful
“lactical *“maneuvering of an unusual
snumber of tanks, and by co-erdinat
tlng with precision the deployment of |
_cavalry, made use of thesetwo arms |
"to bear the brunt of the encounter,
Infantry then was called upon to g\old
Eam! consolidate the terrain gained.
“Thus the British were able to record
_a decided success with very great
E’mnomy of ammunitions, and slight
chmutm y
_ ~"Three succeseive lines of (erman
defenses on a frontage of six miles
astride the Cambrai-Bapaume road
were captured and the Scheldt canal
in_front of Cambrai was crossed.
: “The first day. of the battle dry

‘which began at dawn November 20,

Capture of Villages.
“The captw { the village of Fon
taine Notre , two and three
quarter miles \west of Cambrai, marks
the present limit of the advance.*
“The British forces, while press
ing forward, are meeting with in
creased resistance. {
“Severe fighting continues, and we
may expect desperate attempts on the.
part of the enemy not merely to pre- |
vent any further British advarce, but
to regain, ¥ possible, some of the
lost ground. |
“Cambrai, the tenter of very im
portant rail, road and canal lines of
communication, now comes under the
Immediate fire of the British fleld

in the capture of seme elements of |

“Lively artillery duels took place
north of the Chemin des Dames and
in the Verdun sector, where, as for
several weeks past, the enemy contin
ued to bombard the French poultiops
in Chaume wood.

“The eénemy is continuing his ef

commune heavy fighting is going on.
‘The enemy has heen successfully re

“In the mountain reglons between
the headwaters of the l'grenta and the
Piave defensive operations have been
well conducted, and the enemy has
been unable to make any further
progress.
“Strategic reserves, strengthened by
Allied contingents, have been consti
tuted,
‘“The morale of the Itallan forces
is Improving daily, and while the situ
ation is not wholly free from critical
aspects, the defensive measures ap
pear adequate to meet the situation.
“In Palestine the British forces un
der General Allenby are advancing
rapidly on Jerusalem. They have
now reached a point on the Ramaleh
road approximately seven miles west
of the city, while another force is
bearing down from the north.”

Without Annexation
(By International News Service.)
ZURICH, Nov. 27.—Hungary 1s ready
to make peace without any annexations.
Thid declaration came today from Count
Kuro\yi. famous Hungarian statesman,
who is now in Switzerland on a peace
mission. The Hungarian peace agent
has been trying to get in touch with
representatives of the entente powers
for the purpose of furthering the peace
movement,rm sald. |
Many a home will serve a less pretentious repast this
year than on any previous Thanksgiving—ecertainly there
will be less extravagance and waste. But the lessons of
economy and common sense that are being learned every
day will prove of countless value in she future.
And yet the Thanksgiving dinner need be no less
attractive than heretofore-—and the sacred charm of the
oceasion may still be preserved. In fact, there will be ad
ditional reasons for thanks, in the knowledge we have
gained of how to substitute economy for extravagance—of
the value of many inexpensive articles of food that can be
used in place of the costly ones.
The Rogers Stores have felt it a part of their mission to
disseminate all obtainable'information that would tend to
correct our national fault of extravagance and wasteful
ness. All of which we have backed up by supplying our
patrons at the lowest possible prices.
All of our stores will remain closed all day Thanks
giving. In order to be able to do this, they will be open
on Wednesday night until 9 o’clock, so that all of our
patrons may be served.
SOMETHING ABOUT BREAD—You should%member to buy
a two-days’ supply on account of Thursday's closing. Our Quality
Loaf is thoroughly wrapped and will retain its freshness. This
alegant milk bread is a full 20-ounce loaf. and sells for the same
price as other 16-ounce loaves, 10c. Our Double Loaf contains 16
ounces, price 7c.
. ARE ¥OU A CRANK ABOUT FLOUR?—Many of the best
cooks are hard to please when it comes to flour. We unhesitat
ingly state that no matter how much you pay, you simply can not
get a higher grade of Flour than RICHLAND LILY. 'lixere are
other flours as good, but we know there i{s none better. Try it
on our recommendation, and you will be delighted with it in every
particular, besides you will save a neat amount. 24 Lbs, $1.58,
THE TRUTH ABOUT EGGS—Three-fourths of the eggs con
sumed at this seagon.of the year are storage eggs. They have to
be. Supply and demand governs it. Yet because there is a
prejudice against storage eggs, some dealers are forced by their
patrons to call them fresh eggs. They are better than your
prejudice permits you to believe them. Our price on No. 1 storage
eggs, dozen, 39¢c.
THE FRESHEST CREAMERY BUTTER sold in Atlanta to
day is Velvet, which is handled exclusively by us. Made in Sel
ma, Ala., it reaches your table one day after churning. It has
pleased our customers better than any other butter we ever
handled. Per pound, 49¢.
