THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 2, 1916. VIGOROUS GERMAN ATTACMPDLSED Trench Official Report Says Many Tnrions Counter As sault! Beaten Back. ALLOCS OT JUTE FETTLE ' Paris, Ang. 1. (Via tondon.) North of the Avre river, in the Somme region, the Germans last night attempted two attacks in strong force against the French positions in the Eipons sector, says the official statement, issued this afternoon by the French war department. Both at tempts failed nnder the French fire, it is added. The Germans, reacting with more than usual vigor north of the Somme, have made counter attack after coun ter attack during the last twenty four houri without changing the po sitions of the French. According j French official reports, all attempts of the Germans to regain lost ground have been beaten off by the French rifle, machine gun and artillery fire, while the work of strengthening and adapting the newly won trenches is being carried on speedily and meth odically by the engineer corps. The French commanders regard the situation on the whole as excellent and say that the arrangements in the rear of the attacking forces have reached a pitch of perfection never before seen. Material of all kinds is is abundance, far exceeding, accord ing to reports, the actual require ments, and everything is in readiness for an attempt to push the advance further when the time is ripe. German Assaults Furious. The fury of the German asaaulta and the strength of the effectivea en gaged shows the determination of the emperor's generals to spare no effort to prevent the French from working way along the north bank of the river by way of Cler? to attack Perrone from two sides. Aviators report that the Germans are making feverish ef forts to reinforce the already strong ly fortified positions about Clery and are gathering reserves from several directions. Heavy fighting is looked for in the near future. Attack on British' Position Fails. London, Aug. 1.

GOOD HARVEST IS NEAR Washington, August L Germany has informed the United States it has refused on "account of the imprac ticable conditions imposed by Great Britain upon the shipments of food stuff from America into Poland" to enter into further negotiations for co operation in Polish relief work, which are devoid of purpose. Owing to favorable harvest pros pects, however, the Imperial govern ment saya relief apparently will be unnecessary after October 1 next. The German position is stated in a note handed to Mr. Gerard July 29 and made public today at the State department It apparently is a final rejection of Great Britain's offer made in a recent communication ac quiesced in by France to permit the passage of American food supplies in to rpiana on conditions that the oc cupying Teutonic armies would not seize or remove native products. No mention is made of President Wilton's personal letter to Emperor William similar to those sent to other buropean rulers appealing for joint action in arranging to feed the starv ing Poles. The note is in reply to identical communication! sent hv tha State department to all of the bellig erents concerned. HYMENEAL Glaser-Hatcher. Leu natcner, ot Missouri Valley, la, and Mr. Winfred E.

Wharton calls at postoffice to join hundreds of others in congratulating Charles E. Fanning, who took over the office Monday night m3 tifi TextofHughes' Address to Women's Roosevelt League (Cantlnnad From Pace One.) tion which have characterized it; and we cannot expect improvement from that source. We can judge by what has been done and by what has not been done; and we are here together under circumstances very unexpected to me to see if we cannot have a genuine revival of American senti ment so that we may face the world erect and prepared. "I explained ,last night my position with regard to a very important ques tion, in which many of you if not all of you are deeply interested. I refer to woman suffrage, and as I then, I have come to the conclusion that the granting of a vote to women is in evitable. I base that conclusion upon a consideration of our economic con ditions. "There may be those who disagree with that view; but I confess I do not see how any candid mind can ex amine the tendencies of our life and reach a conclusion that permanently votes will be denied to women. I think it is impossible. Dealing With Issues. "That being my conviction, I depre cate most deeply sex organizations based upon sex and not upon the gen eral obligations of citizenship borne by all. I view with a great deal of misgiving a continuation of the agita tion which I am sure will grow more and more intense as this movement meets determined opposition. "I speak with reference to the America of the future and (he great importance that in our preparedness we should deal with real political is sues and not have our political life sidetracked by a grcat and deter mined opposition with regard to the composition of our electorate. That ia a matter that is fundamental. Wc start with our electorate and then discuss the matters with respect to which they are to act according to their convictions. And so i want to say women if they are to have the vote, as I believe they ought to, come in as citizens with men. "I desire to see them not organized on a sex basis, developing sex antag onism, but with the responsibilities of citizens, and coming in as men do, and in connection with the great questions of the day to exert their power and influence according to their convic tions on those questions. In Favor of Suffrage. "I stated that I favored woman suf frage. Now I did not state last night my attitude with regard to the federal amendment. That matter was not stated specifically in the republican platform. I do not deal with it in making my formal response to the notification of my nomination. "Today in answer to a telegram from Senator Sutherland of Utah I stated that, consistently with the prin ciple and view I announced last night, I was in favor of the federal amend ment. "I take that position because, re iterating what I already have said, I have and believe this question should be promptly settled. I see nothing but danger to our security, to our un ity, to our proper attitude toward po litical questions oin continued agita tion of this subject; and I would take the shortest cut to ts solution. Effects Whole Country. "I further believe that it is a mat ter affecting the whole country. It is one of those matters where we must have a uniform policy. The country must decide on what that policy should be. I have indicated my belief as to what it should be; but it is a question which effects the whole country the composition of our elec torates; and therefore I believe that the federal amendment should be sub mitted and should be ratified. "Now, there are many things which engage our attention in connection with this campaign. I have recently referred to so many of them that 1 jhall not detain you with a special consideration of one of these issues at this time. I desire to say that I am here to give myself unrservedly to the service of the United States and I want the support of the women of the country." As Mr. Hughes was leaving the meeting he was spoken to by Mrs. August Clearance Sale at the Central Home Furnishings We have hundreds of excellent values in odd pieces and discontinued patterns of Furniture, Stoves and Draperies that must be disposed of to make room for big shipments arriving daily.

"I am sorry Mr. Hughes very sorry, that a man of your sincerity should support the federal amendment for women's suffrage," said Mrs. Scott. "You, sir, will have four gen erations of women against you." "I am sorry madam, that we dis agree," replied the nominee, and he passed on. Extra Service for the Fremont Tractor Show The railroads are expecting to handle considerable extra traffic next week on account of the tractor show at Fremont.

The Burlington will run a special train from Sioux City on that day and the Northwestern expects to put in more or Icbs extra service on local lines where the present service is not adequate.
