Dr. A. c. Jordan Relates Opinions Expressed at
 Recent Meeting.
FIX MAYOR HONORED
Dr. Jordan Was Made Fellow in Amer ican College of SurgeOns-Out. IGCk for Improved Business, 2
 Better, Says Members.

"That within ten years the place now held .oy Germany as the leading country in the advancement of sur gerry and the practice of medicine will have been given up to the United States was the consensus of opinion at the American College of Surgeons convention just closed at Washington D. C." declared Dr. A. c. Jordan, former mayor, who returned yester- day from Washington where he at tended a meeting of the congress.
 "It was the opinion expressed i2 convention" said Dr.. Jordan, "that when Europe again is tranquil the center of progress in surgery and medicine will be found in the United States" Dr. Jordan expects the American College of Surgery to con- tribute greatly to bringing about this change.
 pr. Jordan with thirteen other Ar kansas surgeons received the degree of Fellow in the American College O. Surgeons at the meeting just closed. The conferring of this degree on Dr. Jordan is signal honor to him and to Pine Bluff as no other physician or surgeon from this city holds the degree and it is not one that can be easily secured as candidates for membership must be recommendd by members. Previous to this year Ar kansas had but two members of the body Dr.. Murphy, the noted Chica- go surgeon; Dr. Mayo, of Rochester, Minn., and others recommended the local physician. =4,.
 Admittance to the American Col lege of Surgeons requires that th2 candidate recommended must have performed fifty major operations and must have assisted at as many other major operations. Only men ef known reputation, years of practice and unquestioaed standing are ellgl- ble to memh': ship. t.
 Business Outlook Better. %
 "One of the main things accomp- lished at this years session of the congress was the establishment of 3 permanent home for the congress a Washington" said Dr. Jordan. "Fol this purpose and for the further ad van cement Of surgery through re search and education the congress appropriated $250,000 which sun will go toward $1,0O0,000 endown- ment fund to be raised by the mem bers of the congress.
 Il found to my surprise and pleas ure that the opinion of men gather ed from all sections is that unsettle financial affairs in this country arc assuming rapidly their normal state" declared the former mayor. Me: from the far east, west and north q:

forces in great strength today and at tempted one of the most desperate anc determined assaults of the campaign about Verdun and St. Mihiel, when , they charged the French trenches five times in solid ranks within period of two hours. Les Epergnes, in the Woevre region, was the scene of the conflict.
 The attempt was in the nature o1 a surprise attack, the German corps commander apparently depending np- on a heavy fall of snow to screen his approach to the French works. But the contingency had been provided for by throwing out more advance posts from the outguard of the French posi- tions, and the approach of the Ger mans on their first advance was re- ported in ample time for the derend- CTS to brace themselves for the at tack. The fighting was terrific. Ter rife artillery fire was poured into the closed ranks and this served to arrest the advance. Where detachments o1 the attackers were able to break through and pour over the outer works they were set upon anad either anni- Inflated, beaten back or captured.
 The main facts of this action was all the news contained in the midnight official statement issued from Bor- deaux. T>'
 The day was reported along the en- tire front to have been one Of the calmest yet experienced.
 Temperature Below Zero.
 Freezing weather prevailed through out the war area, the mercury falling as low as 20 degrees above zero. deavy snows are reported along the front The French artillery is plainly wear ing down the rival gun attachments
 In the afternoon official statement the French war office claims the ad- vantage at every point of contact. 1n- termittent artillery actions are re- ported from DiXmude to point south of Ypres, and atsNieuport the gunnery .cf the French and Belgians has put many of the German pieces out of ac- tion. .ss t's ts'9s a',a 4sss'FS 4saFs
 The only infantry movement of any importance in Flanders were two at ltacks of foot troops directed against the French position at Hollebeke both of which were quickly repulsed.
 ! Superior positions have been gain ed by the French artillery along the Aisne and tile fire of the French gun ners has been so accurate that the Germans have been prevented from completing their trenching operations begun several days ago. The Germans were forced to withdraw to positions in the rear in order to save them selves from being cut to pieces.
 French Blew Up German Trenches.
 Mining of the enemy's trenches in the Argonne has been successfully ac- romplished, and several of their works have been cbliterated with great losses to them.
 The most bitter fighting of the whole battle front is proceeding in the region of Verdun and in the Vos- ges. Here the French troops have been able to record several advances As Illustrating the desperate nature of the fighting in this district. the official statement declares the Fernch have established themselves at certain pcints within about 100 feet from the German positions.
