This morning's session of the forty
fourth annual convention of the State
Dental association, held in the Harbor
Island auditorium, was devoted largely
to chart work, of little interest to the
layman, but of paramount importance
to delegates upon the convention. The
attendance on the session was unusual
ly good, although a few delegates were
unable to resist the can or tne out-on
doors and found it impossible to re
main throughout the session. - The as
sociation has headquarters at the
Oceanic hotel and their every want is
being attended to by Manager Charles
E. Hooper.

French Premier Pays, Tribute
to U. S. Military Effort'
FOR DEFENSE OF PARIS
Leon Abrami Gives Details of
Military Strength of
the "Allies
NUMBERS ON INCREASE
Italian and Austrian Soldiers
Watch An Italian Airplane
Bring Down Enemy
Machine Gun
Paris, June 20. Talking to the par
liamentary army commission today on
the military- situation, Premier Clem
enceau alluded to the American mill
tary effort, wjiich he said was being
constantly sustained and which was
resulting in the steady and safe ar
rival in France of large numbers of
American reinforcements. He spoke
also of new decisions made by the
British government regarding meas
ures to be taken during the next en
emy offensive and upon the situation
as regards the defense of Paris.
; Leon Abrami, under secretary for
effectives of ..the war department, gave
details of the military strength of the
entente, and his revelations, together
with the statements made by the pre
mier, had a most reassuring effect
upon: the commissioners.. The mem
bers of the commission, says L'Homme
Libre, were particularly impressed by
the -. figures . given of the numbers of
American troops, which it predicts
will shortly bring about . numerical
eqoality with the enemy.
Down Machine Gun Float
Italian Headquarters, Italian Front,
June 20. As thousands of Italian and
Austrian soldiers looked on today an
Italian airplane brought about the' sur
render of the crew of xan Austrian ma
chine gun float after the Italian in
fantry and artillery had failed to sub
jugate it
The Austrians brought the float up
on the swollen Plave river -to a point
on the south bank occupied by the
Italians. From this vantage point the
Austrians poured a harassing fire into
the Italians,' who tried in . vain to de
stroy the float. It was impossible to
use light artillery to any great extent
because of the proximity of the float
to the Italian lines. Finally an Ital
ian airplane swooped down upon the
river and forced theJoccupants of the
float to swih to the right bank and
surrender taUhe Itajiin soldiers, .
The arrival oi amea air ngncers to
assist the Italians has heartened the
Italian air force, which Is much
wearied after six days of heroic work,
Italian aviators have .spent days at
a time in the air, thereby virtually
securing control of the; air and 'also
preventing bombardment of cities be
hind the lines.
MERCHANTS FINISH
UP ALL BUSINESS
(Continued from Page One.)
ronize any firm in the country that is
pro-German and to promptly cancel
all existing orders with such firms.
The clause referring to discontinu
ance of patronage with German firms
was inserted after one delegate had
spoken of movie theatres that are
being operated by persons or uerman
birth - or extraction and wnose sym
pathies are with the imperial German
government.
State Food Administrator Page was
foundly scored by alvin Woodward
who declared that Mr. Page should
have attended the convention or sent
some one .as the merchants, particu
larly the retail grocerymen, Vere en
titled to know more about to& food
regulations, since they were called
upon to obey them. Mr. Page had
promised to attend and address the
convention and it was presumed that
he would bel there until a telegram
was received after the convention had
been called to order, expressing regret
because of his inability to come. Mr.
Woodard does not believe there is a
retailer, a lawyer or anyone else in
the state, even the food administra
tor, who is familiar with all food reg
ulations.
The convention also went on record
as favoring a fiscal year ending for all
local associations not later than May
in order that newly elected officers
could attend the state convention soon
after going into office and thus be en
abled to accomplish a great deal more
in their local organizations during the
year. The question of Increasing the
secretary's salary was left with the
nresident and board of directors and
in all probability Mr. Leonard will re
ceive a much more attractive salary
In the future than he has been paid
In the past.
The question of allowing the off!
rem and directors to determine the
datp and city for the next annual con
vention was discussed at length and
the question re-Opened by H. C. Rawls,
of Durham, after it had been voted on
Hn the affirmative. Mr. Rawls was bit
terly opposed to this method of pro-
ceedure and not at all Impressed witn
the proposed amalgamation meeting of
merchants that Is proposed. The mo
tion as carried set aside the by-laws
for ope year and privileges the di
rectors to name next years conven
titon city and the, date on which the
annual meeting wilLb neia.
The convention heard another in
teresting talk during the morning
' Italian Atony Headquarters, Wednes
day, June IS.-That Austria's drive
aeainsti Italv is bositlvalv "a nil T CAT
offensive,'' has been prove by new
orders and.addresses found upon pris
oners. ""These wre signed by officers
ranging from Field Marshal Conrad
von Hoetendorff down to regimental
commanders. One which was issued
by the commander of the famous regi
ment bearing the name of Archduke
Charles says:
"Soldiers, remember the spoils we
got last fall from the Italians; the
sheep, cows, steers, warehouses full of
good clothes and grocery, stores full
of wines, canned goods, flour and
sugar. Think of your family. Think
of the white bread you may win for
all."
The correspondent has visited
groups of hundreds of prisoners, all of
whom are thin and weak. -. They said
they had had little food for the past
month and spoke with horror of tfie
winter months they had . passed. A
sample of their black bread showed
that it was made of rye straw and
potatoes. Many of the prisoners have
strong, Well spiked shoes, but these,
they claim, they made themselves' of
bought. Their clothes, however, are
falling apart, having ,been patched
frequently. Most of them have mere
rags for shirts. The majority of the
prisoners have money but it is either
in paper bills or iron coin. The most
of them wear medals for valor, some
of them having two or three of them,
but these decorations are of base
metal and none are of gold or silver.
One is stamped with a likeness of
Empress Zita and encircled with lau
rel wreathes and is made Of a zinc
composition'. The . prisoners part
readily with theB medals, saying they
have no pride in them, for a few pen
nies of Italian money. Most of the
captured men are young and light-
haired and generally have bad teeth.
The Italian soldiers tell humorous
stories of captures effected by per
suading -the Austrians that they will
be, fed. The Italian . off icer who had
been wounded and picked up by a
group of Austrians, who Intended to
make him prisoner, explained how
foolish they were. He said:
"Come with me and you will get
meat, wine and real bread."
Thereupon the whole party went
over to the Italian lines.
' It is satd also that at the beginning
of the offensive the Austrians in the
front line each received three rations
of meat, one for each day of the at
tack until they reached . the Italian
stores. They were so hungry, how
ever, that they ate all the first day
LUNCHEON SERVED AT A
RIDICULOUSLY LOW PRICE

minton: C. W. Whitehead, Hugh Mac

The efficiency of the home demon
strators was proved in the serving of
a palatable and nourishing three
course luncheon to 26 people at a cost
of $5.79. The menu included meat
croquettes with tomato sauce, new po
tatoes with white dressing, cornmeal

struction and equipment.
In view of the interest, in North
Carolina in the short line railroad sit
uation, Senator Overman predicted to
day that the united States raikoad ad
ministration need not be expected, to
render a decision about' any of these
roads in the near future. It is lmpos
sible, he said, for the administration
to handle the short -line question be
fore July 1, as provided in the original
railroad, act, and congress is. prepar
ing to extend the time for six months
so that each small railroad may have
its claim considered individually.
"A resolution has already been in
troduced," said Senator Overman, "to
provide more time for settlement of
this important issue and the resolu
tion will receive preferential consid
eration. It postpones until January 1,
the date upon which the president,
through the director general, 'shall
designate what short line carriers are
to remain under governmental control.
It was found impossible to make this
decision by July 1 and we will, have to
legislate for more time. I am con
vinced the railroad administration in
tends to handle the matter on its mer
its and will give every road a show."
Senator Overman said he expected
soon the formal order, putting the
Winston-Salem . Southbound railway
under government operation following
the specified appeal of its president
that such action be taken.
from State Insurance Commissioner
Young and the advisability of, form
ing a mutual insurance company of
their own was . discussed at length.
Mr. Young favors the plan and tiered
to give any and all assistance within
his power. A committee will be named
to take the matter up. Much routine
matter was disposed of during the con
cluding session. ,
