COUNCIL BLUFFS
FAREWELL TO MEMBERS OF
COMPANY L, OFF FOR FRANCE
Reck Island Station Crowded With Citizens Who Came
. to Witness Entrainment of First Troops
Bound for Des Moines and Then
to War Across the Ocean.
Ten thousand Council Bluffs residents gathered at the
Rock Island station at 6:30 this morning to bid goodby and
good luck to Company L of Council Bluffs, who left for Des
fyloines enroute for France.
The company, which was at fully
war strength, ISO men, was given one
of the greatest demonstrations ever
witnessed in this Iowa city. Cheer
ing frantics, with tears streaming
down their faces, mothers, wives,
sweethearts and even men with gray
streaked through their hair could not
suppress their emotions as these stal
wart sons of democracy bade a last
farewell.
Cheers for the United States, for
the entente allies, for the command
ing officers and for the khaki-clad men
hemselves rolled over thev station
time and again. The great crowa
overflowed for blocks around the
Council Bluffs station.
-The soldiers after entraining
quickly raised the windows to ob
tain a last look at their relatives not
all, however, for in many instances
the soldiers sat stolidly in their seats,
fearing to trust themselves with an
other glance at home and mother.
A short stop at Des Moines, then
on to the Atlantic coast, where they
will entrain for the battle torn fields
of France, is the program that con
fronts Company L. Their honor in
being chosen as one of the first group
of men to he sent abroad is in rec
ognition of their truly, remarkable
showing both in drilling and war
titctics.
People began gathering at the Kock
Island station as the first streaks of
dawn crept over the Iowa bluff east
of the city, preferring to be too early
rather than too late.
- Company L is in command of Cap
tain Clifford' Powell of Council Bluiis
and First Lieutenant J. Mead.
Whistles Toot Loud.
As the long train slowly gained
momentum with its cargo of heart-in-their
throat soldiers aboard the en
gineer tied down his whistle to clear
the track of reluctant parents. Whis
tles all over the Iowa city were also
tied down, while brass bands played
"So Long, Mary," "Goodbye, Little
Girl, ''Goodbye" .and "America,
Wake Up." , '
For several minutes after . the train
had rounded the bend carrying Coim-
Blults boys, some ot wnom may
make the supreme sacrifice ior tlieir
ountry, the vasFmultituae 01 peopie
silent. The silence, However,
spoke volumes.
Street cars were hurried to the de
pot to care for the throng, but the
heart-heavy people preferred to walk
in the brisk morning air in a vain
effort to let mother nature help lift
their weary feet, and still their throb
bing breasts.
"Vlv Cod." cried one mother. I
wonder if the Oerman Kaiser k
kaiser knows
HVW many uv mv n - -
in this world. Will peace ever come?
How we will appreciate and under
stand what a wonderful thing is peace
when it again settles over the world.
Company L is gone.

BIDS FOND
WAR TAX BILL
PUSHED THROUGH
BY U. HENATE
Will Raise Two and One-Half
Billion Dollars; Autos Will
Be Taxed According
to Values.
Washington, Aug. 17. Disposition
by the senate today of many uncon
tested provisions of the $2,006,000,000
war tax bill almost cleared the way
for the sharp fight, which probably
will begin Monday over income and
profits taxes.
Among important features disposed
of during the day were the wine and
motor xehicle -schedules. The re
visions of the finance committee levy
ing between $40,000,000 and $50,000,
000 on owners of motor vehicles, in
stead of $68,000,000" on manufacturers,
I as proposed by the house bill were
adopted as were tne increased rates
on wines, estimated to raise $21,000,
000, against $6,000,000 under the
house rates, . '- .
.House provisions leving av5per
cent tax upon gross sales of many
manufacturers and designed to raise
$118,730,000 also were formally elim
inated, the new automobile and other
reduced exise taxes being substituted.
The senate also accepted the fi
nance committee's aqtion in striking
out the house provision for additional
federal taxation of inheritances, de
signed to raise $6,000,000. New Eng
land senators protested that inheri
tances are a prime source of local
state taxation and should not be inter
fered with by the federal government.
Automobile Section Amended.
An amendment to the automobile
section, suggested yb Senator Knox
and adopted, imposes a surtax of $10
for each $500 value on cars costing
more than $3,000. As accepted the
section provides the following motor
vehicle taxes, payable by owners of
those not used exclusively for busi
ness purposes: '
Motorcycles, $2.50; automobile cost
ing under1 $500, $6, annually; costing
between $500 and $750, $7.50; costing
$750 and $1,000, $10, with $5 addi
tional ior each $dW up to J,uw ana
, $J f each $-00 aboye $j 00fJ
The tax based upon original list
price would be reduced by 10 per
cent for each year's use of the ma
chine up to a gross allowance of 50
per cent.
Navy League and U. S. Navy
... Sever All Connections
Washington, Aug. -17. All unoffi
cial connection between the navy and
the Navy league was severed today
by order of Secretary Daniels, as a
result of the recent action of the
league headquarters in charging that
investigation of the recent fatal ex
plosion at Mare Island navy yard was
being blocked by influence of labor
interests.
Thousands of women throughout
the country are knitting sweaters and
other articles for sailors under the
auspices of the Navy league. Today's
notice means that these will not be
accepted unless tendered through
some agency other than the present
officers of the league.
Alleged Opposition to
Draft Under Investigation
East St. Louis, 111., Aug. 17. Of
ficials of the Department of Justice

ary movement in southern Illinois

BULLETIN.
London, Aug. 17. French troops
in the Ypres area have progressed
in the neighborhood of the River
Steenbeke.
On the British portion of this
front, according to the official re
port from British headquarters in
France tonight, there has been no
change and the Germans have
ceased their counter attacks.
The French and British troops
have captured twenty-four German
guns.
The number ofprisoners taken
by the Canadians in the Loos-Lens
sector now has reached 1,120.
The Canadians have organized
and made secure the positions cap
tured yesterday and 'have made an
advance west of Lens.
(Ity Associated Prriut.)
The Germans made violent and
repeated efforts last night to regain
important positions recently wrested
from them by the! French and British.
They gained some small advantages
on the Verdun front; otherwise the
only result of their attaqks was to add
to the heavy losses which they have
sustained in their tierce local offen
sive Operations of late.
"The British .report three-counter-attackAagainst
their new lines rtear
Loos. At the second effort the Ger
mans gained slight successes at points
but were driven back again and the
third assault failed to shake the Brit
ish defense. Heavy artillery fighting
is reported in the Ypres sector, where
the British, after gaining high
ground in yesterday's attack on a
nine-mile front, were finally pressed
back.v
Attacks Scattered.
The attacks on the. French were
made at widely separated points. In
Belgium the Germans attempted to
recapture the ground taken by the
French along the Steenbeke river, but
met with no success. On the Aisne
front the Germans made vigorous as
saults near the Californie plateaus .nd
east of Cerny. Shattered by the ter
rific artillery fire of the French, the
German infantry formations were
swept back with heavy losses.
On the Verdun front heavy fight
ing was resumed with a German
stroke on a front of two kilometers
between Caurieres wood and Bezon
vaux. At points the attackers suc
ceeded in gaining a foothold in the
foremost French trenches, but subse
quently they were driven out of the
greater part of these position.
British Air Men Busy. ,
British aviators yesterday dropped
several tons of bombs on military
establishments in Belgium. The
French brought down two German
airmen in Belgium and forced two
others to- land back of the German
lines. ( -

'He Ain't No Good Nohow;'Nebraska
Man Asks Son Be Drafted
Following is an exact copy of a letter received by the district ex
emption board from a western Nebraska town.
The letter is from a patriot that thinks his son should go to war.
He declares he will take care of his son's family:
"Provo Marshall General Crowing Dear Sir: in regard to this Draft
bill there are so many that need to go to the army that is' talking so hard
against it and make lite of it.
"I have a son that ought to go. I have raised 7 boys to men grown
and my father was in the Civil war and I hate a coward and I have a
son-in-law that ought to go.
' "Now don't overlook this for I can take care of my Daughter's family
and my son's Wife's father can take care of her. They will probably
make a fus about it but Don't you pay no attention for my soninlaw is
so mean to her I think it will dew him good.
"They are already living in my house and have my chickens and
cows to make a living off of and I want to get read of him.
"Now you come to O'Neill and you will find out there is the most
slackers hear and I wouldn't doubt but these examiners can be bought
off for most people can in this town on anything else. I don't think it
is eny more than fair that some of the bunch goes. So that is the 2 they
can go and you see that they go."

RESTORATION
PLAN OF POPE, '
SAYS VATICAN
Corriers d'ltalia Declares Pro
posal Coincides With Views
of Lloyd George w and
President Wilson.
Rome, Aug. 17. "The pope's peace
proposals are true restoration' in. the
sense 'of LI yd Georges last speech
and consjjtute a peace as outlined by
President Wilson, while they also cor
respond to peace without annexation
or indemnities supported in other
quarters," says the Corrierc d'ltalia,
the semi-official organ of the Vatican.
The paper adds that the pope's note
does not propose to return to the
status quo and suggests the restora
tion of "the old kingdom of Poland"
as it was before being dismembered
by the three empires.
The note suggests autonomy for
Armenia, a rearrangement of the col
onies and the return of Alsace-Lorraine
and Trent and Triest to their
respective nationalities.
"It is possible that the central
powers will consent to make peace,
imposing upon them such sacrifices
and obliging them to pronounce, as
Lloyd George said, the word 'restora
tion'?" asks the Corriere d'ltalia.
Attitude Indicated.
" Washington, Aug. 17. Premier
Lloyd George's optimistic speech in
the British Parliament was in
terpreted here as a preliminary indi
cation of the attitude the allied na
tions may he expected to adopt to
ward any question of peace on a basis
which might permit Germany, as a
conquerer, to dictate terms. ,
News of the premier's speetfh came
while the State department was re
ceiving by cable from tlie British for
eign office the text of i'ope Benedict's
message to the leaders of all bellig
erent nations proposing a basis for
peace negotiations and earnestly ap
pealing for its consideration. -
In entente diplomatic quarters and
among government officials Mr.
Lloyd George's announcement of im
provement in food conditions remov
ing the danger of England being
starved into submission, his assurance
that losses through submarine at
tacks continued to decrease, and his
declaration that their would be suffi
cient tonnage for 1918 and for 1919
if necessary, were hailed joyfully as
a sign oi orcai criiain s saie ; osuioii
and firm attitude.
The pope's message was laid before
President Wilson by Secretary Lan
sing. Important conferences, which
must precede a reply, will begin
shortly, but necessarily some time
must elapse before the response goes
forward.
Strike Agitation Again
