EANAN MAN POWER BEING
SAPPED. 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 paid high tribute to
& both the British and Italian arms.
X Germany, he declares, took the of
© fensive in Italy to extricate herself
IV from the increasingly difficult position
" in which the German arms find them
&= melves on the west front. This has
** failed, the Secretary says. Summing
“* up the result and the outlook, Mr. Ba-
Ker says
: “It is the wastage of the enemy
& forces—the slow, vet relentless sap
%" ping of the man power by continued
and sudden offensive thrusgts—which
~ must eventually result in the soften
ing of his line in the west. This is
™ the ultimate objective of the series of
& intensive offensives so successfully
& pursued by the Allies in the past six
- months, and is even more important
# than the gain In territory.”
= ' The complete review as made pub
. Me 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
+ give in the region of Cambrai and
¥ the steady reslstance of the Italians
5‘5 in the face of repeated attacks of the
" Austro-German forces are two factors
¥ whizhi may be considered as corela
z #ive elements of one and the same
@ movement.
i Reason for Offensive.
¢ “It is evident the enemy took the
# offensive In Italy hoping thereby to
% extricate himself from the increasing
¥ Jy difficult position in which his forces
. found themselves in the west.
. “The German higher command was
apparently confident that, in order to
L save Italy from linvasion, such im
£ portant contingents of French and
British troops would be detached from
% the western front as to render any
" further Allied offensives in this the
' ater impossible. ;
" “Though the French and Pritish
% have both dispatched large contin-.
“.gents to Italy, this has in no way
__hampered the continuance of their of
. fensive operationa. |
@. "It is the wastage of the enemy
a¢ forces, the slow yet relentless, sapping
of his man power by continued and
“ gudden offensive thrusts. which must
eventually result in the softening of
* "his line in the west.
'*fi “This is the ultimate objective of
fithe series of intensive offensives so
_ succesafully pursued by the Allies in
Eme 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 e strategy daringly con
" ceived and brilllantly executed, the
& British forces have been able to record
' greater success, when measured by
¥ captured terrain, than any hitherto
"¥ achieved by either belligerent in the
: ume space of time along the western
~. front. 1
A Haig's Success.
~ “While seemingly continuing Mis
. offensive engagements in Flanders by
. ' intensive artillery bombardment in
" the sector stretching from Ypres to
~ the North Sea, Field Marshal Halg
* was able to mask successfully his
- plang for an offensive thrust between
® the Scarpe River and St. Quentin.
¥ “The usual preliminary artillery
preparation was dispensed with. The
* elements of surprise so essential to
. vietory placed a large part in the
. “successes gained. ,
‘% “The British, by a preponderant
. numerical superiority in men and ma
-4 'terial, by improvising the skillful
Ean cal maneuvering of an unusual
number of tanks, and by co-ordinat-
Ing with precision the deployment of
= cavalry, made use of these two arms
© to bear the brunt of the encounter.
i Infantry then wag called upon to hold
-y and consolidate the terrain galned.
4 Thus the British were able to record
4'a declded success with vary great
& eoonomy of ammunitions, and slight
4 easualties. |
f m"l‘huo successive lines of German
‘ on a frontage of six miles
astride the Cambral-Bapaume road
~ were captured and the Scheldt canal
o In front of Cambral was crossed.
i‘ *“The first day of the battle dry
y ther greatly facilitated operations,
which began at dawn November 20.
&.r. bad weather set in and torren
rains, accompanied by flurries of
. snow, held up the attack.
‘ Capture of Villages.
“The capture of the village of Fon
talne Notre Dame, two and three
gfler miles west of Cambrai, marks
present limit of the advance.
. ' “The British forces, while press
ing forward, are meetyng with in
~ Creased resistance,
“Severe fighting continues, and we
may expect desperate attemnts on the
part of the enemy not merely to-pre
~ yent any further British advance, but
. %o regain, if possible, some of the
~ lost ground.
*“Cambrai, the &enter of very im
~ portant rail, road and canal lines of
. communication, now comes under the
fmmediate fire of the British fleld
rm- wkile the large caliber high ve
. loelty and naval guns can readily
~ search cut the country side for miles
~ In the rear, harassing hostile terri
. tory and rendering the continued ten
. ure of the city by the enemy difficult
! “To the right and left of the scene
of the major operations on a front
. extending approximately to 32 miles
. the attacking forces have penetrated
~ various strong points,
“The number of prisoners enumer
~ ated heretofore is over 10,000, which
" ex :esd the total British casualties.
i “While the battle for Cambral has
;}; resulted in so rapid and sweeping an
. hdvantage for the British forces, ap
~ parently without extensive prelimi
- hary preparation, it must not be.for
' gotten that it was only made possi
. ble by the contirned pounding of the
;}}s\_ German lines ‘u Flanders.
. “In the meantime the British have
- Dot ceased to keep the enemy busy
. In the Ypres salient and gains of
~ terrain are noted to the southeast.
. _ “Along the front held by the
~ French forces the latter have achieved
8 successful coup de main south of
~ Juvin court, in Champagne, resulting
~ in the capture of some elements of
- enemy trenches and the taking of nu
~ merous prisoners.
. “"Lively artiller duels took place

W'tghog;; Annexation
(By International News Service.)
ZURICH, Nov. 27.—Hungary is ready
to make peace without any annexations.
This declaration came today from Count
Karolyl, famous Hungarian statesman,
who is now in SBwitzerland on a peace
mission. The Hungarian peace agent
has been trying to get In touch with
representatives of the entente powers
for th.’purgloue of furthering the peace
movement, he sald.
Many a home will serve & less pretentious repast this
vear than on any previous Thanksgiving—certainly there
will be less extravagance and waste. But the lessons of
economy and ecommon sense that are being learned every
day will prove of countless value in the future.
And yet the Thanksgiving dinner need be no less
attractive than heretofore—and the sacred charm of the
occasion 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 remember to buy
a two-days’ supply on account of Thursday’s closing. Our Quality
Loaf is thoroughly wrapped and will retain its freshness. This
elegant 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 7ec.
ARE YOU A CRANK ABOUT FLOUR?—Many of the best
cooks are hard to please when it comes to flour. We unhesitat
ingly state that no martter how much you pay, you simply can not
get a higher grade of Flour than RICHLAND LILY. There 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-fourthe of the eggs con
sumed at this season 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 thelir
patrons to call them fresh eggs. They are better than your
prejudice permits you to believe them. Oyr price on No. 1 storage
eggs, dozen, 39c.
THE FRESHEST CREAMERY BUTTER sold in Atlanta to
day is Velvet, which i{s 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, 49c.
