ON THE LAST TWOJDAYS. TTtah must reach its fourth Liberty loan quota by tomorrow evening. Ogdon must subscribe its lull allot ment. To do otherwise would be a lasting I disgrace. On Thursday, when the Ogden lj Clearing House Association published I half a dozen names of men supposed I to have failed to subscribe in propor tion to their ability to subscribe, there was a feeling that men's lives were being blasted. Why? Because when any man fails to meet his just obligation in this liberty loan and his name thus becomes public property, he is marked almost as dreadfully as was Cain. SA story is told of a man In a small Kentucky town who sought to Escape m .service in the onion army m jooi, U ' by feigning deafness. He was found .'to be fit for service and was forced" t Linto the war. Forty years after, this ; man's children were subjected to jibes I ' and sneers as a result of their father's I ' failure to measure up 100 per cent an ' . American. i "r What is true of an individual, ap- plies to a state. No commonwealth in 1 J-.lhis great crisis can afford to shirk a ! F. duty. I -,- Neither Utah nor Ogden can bear i ,T"he odium of failing to go over tho r top in the liberty loan. I ,v Now, a word as to the men who '-' "were published as bond slackers. As to at least two of the names, the local committee seems to have been some what misinformed, for the men have I subscribed to a large amount of bonds and thrift stamps. In order to do no .injustice, a full explanation was made .'and an exoneration issued, f ' But tho individual who goes down in the records of Ogden as having' evaded his obligations to the nation, "would do well to move out, as his name "will be anathema ever after. But , . Utah will subscribe its quota. Ogden will go over the top. I - BRINGING LABOR TO , UNITED STATES. Mexicans have come into Ogden to .work and they have gone out to the beet fields and along the railroads. .J'hey represent an influx of labor which the drawing away of Americans to tho Industries of war has made nec essary. Today this country is receiv ing man powor from many different sources. Of late a call has been mado on the workers of Porto Rico and men as old aa GO years are arriving from tho island to help in the industries of tho United States. ' A government official says thatono of the most interesting and at tho same time pathetic sights connected with the moving of great numbers of men to the United States is the eager ness of the old men to reach what they consider a land of promise. They I have worked in the island for tho j whole term of their existence without a thought that they would over be able to leave it, until now the war's de mands have provided them with oppor tunities in a new country. When the first chance came the office of the de partment of labor in San Juan was almost swamped with eager applicants for jobs in America. The men will be used largely in agricultural work in the south, where tho climate will not be greatly unlike that to which they have been accustomed and where tho agricultural conditions are similar to those in Porto Rico. In the earlier stages of the war, a proposal was made to import coolies from the southern provinces of China and to induce the Chinese gardeners to emigrate to our shores and remain during the period of the "war, but the labor unions opposed the move. fin " VICTORY HAS BEEN WON. When Zeebrugge was captured, the whole Belgian coast from Bray Dunes to Knocke was cleared of Germans, j This Is an achievement the Stand lard, up to a month ago, deemed almost impossible, short of an offensive In tho spring. How rapidly the phases of the Avar are changing. March 21 the Germans started their big drive. ' Not until April 29 was there a glimmer of light for the allies. At that time the artillery west of Kem mel hill killed more German storm troops than Avere slaughtered on any one day in the Avar. But the Germans at other points Avent on until it was the opinion of Avell informed military ciritics that they were dangerously close to breaking, doAvn the last bar riers to the security of Paris and the safety of democracy. Not until July 18 did a rift in the clouds appear. Then commenced the first bloAvs of an allied counter offen sive that has brought us to the pres ent glorious stage in an awful strug gle. The end of the Avar Is in sight. Vic tory has been Avon a A'ictory "which requlres'nothing more than the knock out punch. Tho enemy is staggering, and, though still capable of making a wild swing which might do damage, Is unmistakably beaten. The best feature of the defeat Is -t II r I 1 VfiKiWmk Wjmi equally interesting. S Lw Pi On Hudson Avenue By the Alhambra Theatre OWEN BENNETT that the Germans themselves are talk ing in the language of defeat and all their neighbors, even those avIio have been pro-German, are helping to Avrite the obituary of tho imperial German government AN UNCALLED FOR SLUR. From tho Hartford Courant, the Standard is today reproducing an ac count of a meeting held In Hartford, Connecticut, Avhlch Avas addressed by Mrs. Lulu L. Shepard. Two thousand miles from Utah, Mrs. Shepard may mako untruthful state ments which she Avould not have the effrontery to utter before any audi oncc, Mormon or non-Mormon, in Utah. A3 quoted, Mrs. Shepard's remarks require no refutation in Utah. They are outrageously defamatory and evi dently Inspired, by a vindictive spirit. The Standard objects to these libels on Utah because they are a reflection on non-church as well as church peo ple in this state and cannot do us good and may do much harm. Any citizen of Hartford, who has ac cess to the records of the war activit ies of the stales of the union, can quickly become sufficiently informed to be ablo to contradict many of the accusations of disloyalty Avhich arc di rectly, or by insinuation, placed against the people of this state. The Hartford Courant should hasten to inform its readers as to the truth. This it should do as a Avork of patriot ism, because it is embarrassing to oven assume that any great percentage of the people in any state of our great nation, in this mighty struggle, has failed to respond heart and soul to the call to arms. Utah proudly boasts of being very close to the head of tho roll of honor in men and money and every other re quirement of preparedness. oo Tumuli at Diet Session (Continued from Page 1) day had a narrow escape from a Avould-be assassin, attacked Count Karolyi, yelling, "You are Entente agents." Martin Novasy, one of the members of the diet. ansAvered "Wo are friends of the Entente." Great Disorder Ensues. Great disorder ensued. When the sitting was resumed, after a. brief postponement, a draft of the address to the king Avas read. It said the result of the Avar had been such as to place the throne in danger. It stated that1 Hungary must ha-e full autonomy. "Hungary feels herself to be in full accord Avlth the ideas spreading throughout the Avorld on the lines of the noble President Wilson's address," the address continued. "Hungary must be completely independent, must have general electoral suffrage and the rela tions betAveen nationalities in the country must be governed by the prin ciples enunciated by President Wil son." Dr. Wekerle said: "Tho protection of our integrity as a state and the maintenance of our unuy are uisks Ave must accomplish at all costs. We desire to grant Individual rights to the different nationalities avIio have lived among us for a thous and years. We are not contradicting our traditional point of view in accept ing President Wilson's principles. As fai as absolute equality of rights to In dividuals and the defense of our in tegrity and the unity of the state avIH permit Ave will willingly satisfy the claims of different nationalities." Foreign Policy Criticized. BASEL, Thursday, Oct. 17. (Hav as.) At a sitting of the foreign com mittee of the Hungarian lower house Count Michael Karolyi, opposition loader, sharply criticized the foreign policy of the monarchy, according to Budapest dispatches. . He said that when the Austrian government re jected the British proposal to 'submit the Balkanic prob!en to arbitration, the monarchy proved that it wished to begin the war. "When Ave kneAv that Germany Avould not give In and that the Avhole Avorld hnd arisen against the policy of Germany? Avhich had become hateful to all nations," he continued, "we might have made peace. Our lldelity to the alliance has limits." Main MlstaC. A ri r!-- Count Karolyi Avas ruthless in his criticism o submarine Avarfare and said that the main mistake of the Central powers Avas in underestimat ing America. Ho closed by expressing a desire for the creation of an autono mous Hungary and requesting the ab olition of the common institution of tho monarchy. Mass Meeting of-Jews. PARIS, Thursday, Oct 17. (Hav as.) A mass meeting of Jews Avas held at Vienna, October 14, and a res olution Avas passed asking that the Jewish people be admitted into the leaguo of nations, according to ad vices received here. Tho Joays asked that they be represented at the peace conference. It was pointed out at the meeting that the large number .of Jews in Aus tria entitle members of that race to consideration in tho formation of Austrian federal states, Avhich has been suggested in official circles, oo SHOT IN BATTLE WITH THE POLICE SALT LAKE, Oct fS. With a re volver shot in his mouth, Ben BiBhop, 19 years old, of 262 Bishop's court, lies in a critical condition, at the emer gency hospital as a result of a light early yesterday at 2118 South State street in which two young would-be bandits exchanged shots A-ith the po lice.

FALLING BACK Germans Pushed Through Second Defense System and Nearing the Last. WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN FLANDERS. Oct IS. (Havas.) In their plans for a retirement from Bel gium the Germans' had prepared three successive lines upon each one of which they Intended to halt and re form. According to captured German officers, the Iavo first lines already havo been broken by the allied ad A'ance and tho third one will be reach ed in a few days. At the beginning of the allied attack, October 14, there were eight divisions in the Germans' first lines. These Avere reinforced by seven new divisions but the new divisions already Avere ex hausted and Avere of little help. Dur ing the night of October 15-16 two di visions from the Russian front Avere thrown into the battle, but their strength had been greatly reduced and their morale aais very Aveak. The sev enteen divisions have lost heavily in prisoners, killed and Avoundcd. The retreating Germans continue acts of barbarity.

Then Ave told them that President Wil son had refused to grant an armistice and demanded Emperor William's i khead. The crowd, in a frenzy, tossed everything it could lay hands on into the air. "The prefecture, the acting prefect, M. Regnier. embraced us and there Avas a fresh outburst of cheering from tho crowd. U Avas for Mayor Delsalle and for his son, a French officer of the Legion of Honor and Avearing the Avar cross. This officer, an aviator, heard at 11 o'clock that the city had been freed.

The Germans had carried off all the male population more than 14 years of age. The city is not greatly damaged and the public buildings are intact." oo IS CUES MB TO WOMEN WORKERS "Unusual and radical changes are taking place daily, as a result of Avar demands " This is the comment made recently by A, H. Krom. director of engineering, avIio is registering the technical men of the nation and plac ing them according to governmental needs. "Up to the present," said Mr. Krom, "engineers, as a class, have oeuu yuverneu largely oy iraaiiion. Once a mechanical draftsman always a mechanical draftsman. A change to a neAV line of Avork Avas rarely heard of. This, however, is no longer the case. Technical men are changing from ono line of Avork to another; go ing both to school, studying related branches of their profession and striv ing to establish now standards." "Oddly enough they are changing their attitude tOAvard technical avo men. We are daily getting calls for Avomen to do drafting for service iu neAV and unaccustomed lines of Avork. In my opinion, the entire engineering profession is undergoing an important change Avhich will result In groat gains for the nation. The activities of the Division of Engineering, 29 South La Salle street, Chicago, aro register ing those changes daily and indicate that they are practical and far-reaching." MRS. FRED HIGUERA DIES.
