1t is intimated that Germany will
offer to suspend attacks without
warning on merchant ships. if the
United States would renew its in
formal proposals for unrestricted
passage of foodstuffs to German
civilians. Well informed European
diplomats assert that Germany most
certainly would offer to settle the
questions at issue by arbitration or
diplomacy with an agreement to
abandon submarine warfare while
the discussion was in progress. What
is regarded as one of the hopeful
signs in the general situation is the
confidence reflected in official and
diplomatic quarters that Germany
will meet the United States at least
halfway and will suspend, for the
time being, her submarine attacks
without warning during the diplo-
matte correspondence.

Series Of Attacks on Western
Front Precede Important
Movement.
FRENCH CLAIM SUCCESSES.
Another Big Battle Is Expected
In the Vicinity of the
San River.

London, May 1.-THE king Of
Italy has refused to accept the resig-
nation of Signor Salandra and the
premier's whole war cabinet retain
office. This, it is confidently believed
here, foreshadows the almost immed-
lately entrance of Italy into the
circle of belligerents on the side Of
the allies.
Action, however, may be delayed
until the meeting of the chamber of
deputies on Thursday, when the
premier will announce his policy and
will receive the support of MAORI
ty of the deputies.
Should the expected action of Italy
Qaterialize, the allies will be in a
better position than ever to launch
their big offensive movement, against
Austria and Germany, which is being
preceded on the western front by a
series of attacks. furnishing a fore
taste of what is to come.
Scarcely had the German attacks
on the British lines around Ypres ex.
hausted themselves and the French
offensive north of Arras shown signs
of coming to an end than the British
became the aggressors north Of La
Base, and the French and Belgian
troops began their attempt to throw
the Germans back from User canal.
These attacks, according to the
, French official account. which, how
, ever, does not agree with that from
Berlin, were successful and again
! compelled the Germans to counter
, attack-the most costly of all opera
tions in siege warfare. Fighting at
both points continue and in Arlos,
where the French added further
slight gain to those made during the
week, and which, combined, consti-
tute the biggest forward movement
of either army in the west since the
battle of the Marine.
Fighting also is in progress in the
Woevre, particularly west of the
l forest of Pepretre, which the French
also won during the past week.
There does not appear to be much
change in the general situation in
Galicia, although the Austro. German
armies have been able to make an
additional slight advance by the with
drawal of the Russian rearguards.
which have been holding off the VIC
torious troops until their own armies
could get into new positions behind
the San river. This territory prom
ises to be the scene of another big
battle, for the Russians, strongly re-
inforced, will make a desperate effort
to stem the tide which has been rum
ming so strongly against them.
In the Russian border provinces
along the East Prussian frontier iso-
lated engagements are occurring in
which both sides claim to have the
advantage.

Paint or Not

Is a horse worth more or less at
ter feed?
Hay and oats are high today; shall
I wait today and feed him tomor-
row?
That's how men do about painting
their houses and barns and fences.
Paint has been high for several
years; and so they have waited.
Some are still waiting.
Their property drops a trife a
year and the next job of paint
creeps-up creeps-up creeps-up; it'll
take more paint by a gallon a year;
they don't save a cent, and the pro-
perty goes-on suffering. /

The Antreville road is in good fix.
You can ride over it in a Tin-Pan-
Nancy at the legal rate of speed per
mile and never get a jolt. The
Due West road is also in good shape,
and has been greatly improved by
the recent working. The roads to
Mccormick and MI. Carmel are very
rough, and need scraping. We hope
the Supervisor will soon get to it.
We understand that the Greenwood
road has been put in fine shape. 1t
takes a little time to get around, but
in another week or so, we expect to
see all the roads greatly improved.
