WASHINGTON. Sept tf.~Comp4e*e returns from the registration la^t Thursday in lfi state? and the restrict of Columbia of m»oi between the ages of 18 and 45 yca_rs were received today by Provost Marshal General Crowder. They showed a total of 3,238.629 men, 8a against the estimate of 3.232,267, and it was announced only that they do not justify the assumption that the returns from the entire country will shor an enrollment very greatly to a*oess of the estimate of 13,000,000.

In six of the states, the total registration fell below the estimate, but in 10 of them it exceeded it. The District of Columbia registered 12 per cent more than the number estimated for it, due, officials believe, to the influx of war workers. Of the states, Vermont's percentage of ercesa enrollment was the highest, beta 12V4-

WOHEN AT WORK HELP RETAIL STORE TRADE

Thousands Heeding Appeal of Em players Row Spend New Earnings Far Clotiiing.

WASHTNOTO*?, Stept. V!.-Women by the thousands are responding to the appeal of employers to take the place of men entering the army and to fill new positions created by industrial e,x-» panarfort, according to the monthly business review of the federal reserve. From a 11 parts of the country come reports that women are helping—in factories, stores, warehouses, street cars and on farms, where harvesting created an immense demand for workers.

The rate of increase of women's emJfloyment now is much greater than two months ago and some indications are that to a few more months the number of women entering industry w ill be greater than the number of men withdrawing for military service.

More Money To Spend.

The rerftear as made public today bIiows that mmieai are speeding more of their new earnings for clothing. Retail dealers in all cities where many women recently have left their homes to work elsewhere report booming business. This is contrary to the policies of economy and self denial urged by all government agencies as a war measure.

Owing to a recent government supervision erf employment agents, industries now report much more staple labor conditions but a continued excess ot demand for more workers than can be supplied. Many anticipate a shortage this month with the return to school of thousands of teachers and children who have been working during the summer.

Await 0«mb Inpuwuta,

Haattern federal reserve banks report that a tendency Is apiwrent among manufacturers and distributors to await full assurance of government price regulations before determining trade policies. Industries generally are active and the less-essential enterprises are rapidly being curtailed or converted into essential enterprises or production.

Wholesale houses are to make materials for sale next spring at higher prices and retailers show some uncertainity as to how hijrhor prices will be taken by the puhhc for clothing and other articles. This causes some heaitau^ey In certain Tmos.

Active in Vosges KegioH* In the Vosges region there 1b great activity by the enemy, who evidently expects the American legions there to attack the German lines to the west of the Rhine. In this sector of the battle front, the Americans are standing on German soil, and an assault there would, if successful, carry the war nearer to'the heart of Germany (ban elsewhere along the line. The country to be traversed by an attacking army, however, is verv rough and lends itself admirably to defensive opera! ions.

Marshal Frvh, however may elect to strike to the west. o*f "V erd where the German positions have been seriously shakm by the American victory at St^ Mihiel. An attack from Rheims to Verdnn was expected throe, weeks ago, after the British and French advance to Pi card y and San terre had slo-cf-l down.

It would hav* far-reaching effects, If It should succeed, and probably would compel a German retreat from the region north of Kheims as well as a re-location of the enemy's lines around Verdun, which is a sector that seems to be vital to the enemy's position to eastern Prance.

British Near Old Line.

Tn the Flanders area the "RHtteh h«ve nearly reached the lines they held when the Germans launched their attack hi April on each sido of Armentieres. This, too, is a sector where an allied offensive may be expected.

Allied successes along the front in Macedonia may Indicate that the period of quiesence in the near east is at an end- Strategists have pointed out that a great offensive an this front would have immediate results in determining the position of Bulgaria and Turkey as allies of Germany.

The gains made by the antes along the center of the Macedonian line would seem to indicate that there was plenty of power behind the blow, and that it may be followed up by other attacks which will shift the scene of action for the time being to a front VbiGh appears perilous for the enemy.

Gaining in Siberra.

Entente allied forces operating to Siberia have been active north of Vladivostok, and have won victories which may be reflected in a breaking down of the Bolshevtki regime in eastern Siberia. The Ozecho-Slovak forces operating to the west of Lake Baikal have made gains recently, and although outnumbered are fighting with great vigor to eastern European Russia.
