Take Uscieczko. London, 10, 4 p. m.—Sig- mificance is attached by Russian mili- tary commentators ‘g0 the, offensive movement of Russian troops in east- ern Calicia, just north of the Buko- wina boundary, which is reported of ficially from Petrograd to have re ed in the capture of Uscieczko and the crossing of the Dniester at that point. Reuter Petrograd corres- wondent says the opinion is expressed that if the Russians continue their movement they will threaten all the Austro-German positions in the dis- trict of Czernowitz, capital of Buko- wina According to atements made prisoners, the correspondent says, the Yesperate defense of Czernowitz by the Teutonic forces which has cost them large losses, was dictated by po- litical rather than strategical consid- grations, an order having been ued to the troops declaring that the fall of Czernowitz would cause the imme- diate adherence of Rumania to the quadruple entente. Owing to the flooding of the Oginski canal on account of a sudden thaw, the Germans have been compelled to evacuate all of their second line trenches in that district, losing large juantities of ammunition.

PETROLITE CASE NOW PUT UP TO AUSTRIA con- RoST, be held Lansing Asks Dual Monarchy to Probe and Explain Attack by U-Boat on American Steamer. ‘Washington, Feb. 10.—Secretary nsing announced today that he had it to the Austro-Hungarian govern- ador Penfield a s ment through Ambass despatch asking for an investigation and an explanation of the attack by an Austrian submarine on the Ameri- can tank steamer Petrolite. The secretary said published state- ments that demands had been made upon the Vienna government were range of pos ity that demands of some sort might be made in the fu- ture should the investigation and ex- planation asked warrant them. The secretary's despatch called at- tention to affidavits from members of the crew of the Petrolite und to in- formation from other sources to the effect that the ship was stopped in the Mediterranean near Alexandria by an ‘Austrian submarine, which fired upon her and wounded one man in her engine room. The submarine commander asked for food, which Capt. Thompson of the Petrolite refused. sent a boarding party on the Ameri- can ship and removed one American member of her as a hostage while the Austrians took the food they required from the Petro- lite’s store ovel questions are involved in the case. Warships under certain stress may take food from merchantmen if they give proper receipts or payment, but it is realized that if submarines are to be permitted to do so every neutral ship might be made a base for their operations.

If this were true no vocational advisor would be needed. As a matter of fact it is the variety of interests that many per- sons have that malkes them the most difficult subjects for vocaticnal guid- ance.
