PreRldent Wilson brought the
Shipping board row to an abrupt ter
mination Tuesday by eliminating the
two principals, William Penman,
chairman of the board, and Muj. Gen.

board’s Emergency Fleet corpora

The resignation of Gen. Goethals,
tendered some days ago, was accept

the president to follow suit that the
government's building program
might go forward without embar
rassment.

merly chairman of the federal trade

American Observers — Western
Front Sees Advantage With the
Germans After Much Fighting.
No attempt is made in Washing*
ton to minimize the seriousness of
the situation in the war theaters in
Europe. The United States is In the
war and will go through with it; but
any hope of a short struggle has
gone glimmering with the apparent
almost complete collapse of the Rus
sian war machine.
The development was not unex
pected by many army officers. When
th« 4>ffen«ive of July 1 was started
by the Russian forces, the most fre
quent comment heard in Washington
was that it was probably the dying
kick of the old Russian machine.

collapse may have an immediate and

was one sent to the United States
accompanied by the explanation that
it^would be a small conference to
consider specific objects, { and stating
that as the United Statqp. had no
troops in the Balkans, it would, per
haps, not care to participate, al
though its repreaeutatjves would be
welcomed. AYashington replied that,
it did not wish to take part.
A conference of naval authorities,
also, will be held. Vice Adihtral

the front on both sides, so that in
effect a fortified belt stretches from
the sea to the Swiss border that is
perhaps more than 100 miles wide.
