THE "OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: APRIL 28, 1918. IRISH FIRM III PURPOSE TO FIGHT DRAFT FOR ARMY Passive Resistance, Is Policy Advocated by Leaders of Anti-Conscription Campaign. Dublin, April 27. The success of the "workless" day last Tuesday has led to a widespread impression among all classes that the government, con vinced of the attitude of the people, would refrain from bringing conscrip tion into operation. This view is not shared by the heads of the anti-conscription movement. ; . A warning was issued today by the ' Sinn Fein council that the govern ment is committed to the effective application of conscription and confi dence to the contrary would be short sighted. The constitutional national ist leaders say that there is no sign whatever of a change in the war cab inet's plans and that preparations for wirrying them out are being made on a most formidable scale. ; , It is pointed out that, contrary to the prevailing idea, an order in coun cil may be made effective at' once, without wf iting for parliament, al though parliament has reserved the power, within 14 days, to annul it Large Fund Expected. ,- The anti-conscription fund, of which Archbishop Walsh is trustee, is be ing actively promoted and is expected to reach unprecedented dimensions. The Church of Ireland Gazette, the organ of the Protestant Episcopal : church, declares that the most lament able aspect of the present crisis is the tendency to make conscription a re- 1 l . Tl t 1 iigious issue oeiwccn rroicsiams ana Catholics. No expectations are en tertained anywhere here that the home rule bill, whatever its character. will modify opposition to conscription. The unionist journals have suggested that conscription might be withdrawn if the bishops and the Irish party would make a firm offer to secure the needed men voluntarily. But there is no prospecf that s"uch an offer will be made. : The absence of the Irish party from parliament has provoked no objec tion from the people.; J Passive resistance continues to be the policy advocated, taking the form of refusal to facilitate inquiries or ac knowledge tribunals, which hints at possible effective action regarding the food supply. "War fn Desperate V aits," Says Gen. Leonard Wood Denver, VVpril 27. "The war is in desperate straits." said Major General Leonard Wood here tonight in a Lib erty loan address to a large crowd to the municipal auditorium.

While no reports of a new revolt in Petrograd have been received at the State department from Ambas sador Francis at Vologda, news of an uprising would not come as a sur prise, It long has been believed here that Germany's real purpose was to restore the monarchy supported , by German influence, money and in trigue. ,, y, - The removal of the Bolsheviki government from' the capital to Mos cow was. believed to have paved the way for the carrying out of the Ger man plan. Reports have been re ceived here that German soldiers, for merly prisoners in Russia, have been overrunning the capital, and have made of it a German center. Siberian Situation Chaotic.

YOU cannot get away from it, neither can you console yourself with the ar gument that it is a fad or a new wrinkle just being tried out, nor can you afford to accept the uncertain, haphazard methods of diagnosing as in the past in relation to your teeth. - : When you want to know tha truth ! and the real condition of your teeth the X-Ray tells you, be it good or bad. It has been proven the world over that the X-Ray is the most positive and accurate method of dental diagnosing that Science has given us. Science also proves to us that the amount of disease and poor health resulting from bad teeth is appalling. Then why neg lect or consider lightly a thing of such magnitude as your Health and Happiness. Health is what we are striving for in this office and not merely a perfect piece of mechani6al workj that's why the X-Ray is used in this office as the first step in carrying out your dental work. It eliminates the pos sibility of an error in putting dental work onv a worth less tooth or extracting a tooth that could be saved. ; If you do not take advantage of the X-Ray examin ation you are the loser.

No charg for X-Ray examination. Dentist recognition by the entente allies made by the rival Russian factions, each to the exclusion of the others. The de parture from Peking of Lieutenant General Hervath, military commander here, has caused alarm in Siberian government representative and social ist groups, who fear that he intends to ask for allied assistance in sup port of a dictatorship.. The apparent reluctance of the allied governments to intervene against the Bolsheviki has caused sev eral factions to feel that the only hope of securing allied support lies in their coalition into a single political or ganization without party lines and de voted to restoring order in Siberia under a republican form of govern ment and re-establishing Russia in the war. or at least overthrowing Ger man influence in Siberia. Bolsheviki atrocities at Blagoviest chensk have aroused indignation. They are alleged to exceed those in Belgium. A remarkable feature of the exodus from Blagoviestchensk was that the refugees brought treasure valued at 30,000,000 rubles with them. It reached Harbin yesterday and was deposited in the Russo-Asiatic bank. Soaking Rain Helps Wheat. Beatrice, Neb., April 27. (Special Telegram.)

GREAT CONFLICT NOW PROBLEM OF - 'STAYING POWER Enemy Is Taxing British Strength as Heavily as He Taxes His Own More Heav ily, Says Observer. (Br Amochitcd Frnu.) London, April 27. The Reuter cor respondent at British headquarters in France sends the following on the battle now under way: - "When Nogi reduced Port Arthur, we were told by military critics that it had been in terms of life which no western general would have dared face. The German high command obviously ridicules the idea; it strews the slopes of Kemmel with German corpses as thick as autmn leaves in Vallombrosa and points triumphantly to the comparative handful of sur vivors who have reached the top. "It is a single problem of staying power. The enemy is taxing the Brit ish as heavily as he can, but in so do ing he is taxing his own relatively even more heavily. He is fiddling for positions which would give him greater advantage in the use of his numerical superiority. The question is whether, if he eventually gained these positions, he would have . any : i : . i.e. iir. .... numerical ouycuuiiiy jcu. c nun are fighting a war of exhaustion, in which the first principle is to weigh a mile lost against the thousands of enemy casualties paid for it Foch's Plans Secret. "The general (Foch) is dealing with the situation with characteristic en ergy, although as to what counter moves he may contemplate there is no knowledge. The retaking of Locre by the French troops was a very dashing exploit It had cost the en emy three heavy attacks to force his way' into the little village, which stands in the fork of the Bailleul and Neuve Eglise roads, and what an un xiirrrssful hearv attack imnlifcs in losses is known. Situated between Mount Kemmel and Mount Rouge the place is an essential point to any further advance along the hill sys tem. For this reason, doubtless, it was determined not to let the Ger mans keep it, notwithstanding the satisfactory casualties figures he had paid for it. "So last night the lads in horizon blue, who are the quickest troops in attack ever seen, levelled the bayonets and followed the lift of the barrage. Only a few of them came back. These were escorting prisoners, what remained of the German garri son who had been rolled back toward Dranoutre."
