RUSSIA HURRIEs MUNITIONS.
Factories Are Running Day And Night To

production Of ammunition, running factories
day and night with three shifts of men and
engaging every available specialist and in
addition all students Of the technical col

A consulting board, presided over by II.
Soukhomlinoff, Minister of War, has been
appointed. 1t includes representatives, of

charge of army contracts.
The need OF explosives, the correspondent
adds, is shown in an account by The CORE

twenty-four hours the Germans fired 100000
shells.
''The wave of high explosives" the CORE

these points but does not report the result,
merely recording minor successes. The line
of offensive is now directed from the Plzas-
nysz region along the valley OF the Omulew

According to dispatches from Paris
there has been terrific fighting near
the recently captured German positions on
the french salient north Of Arras, in the
so-called Labyrinth, and the vicinity Of the
Quennevieres falm, between the Disc and
the Aisne. At Quennevieres both sides
used hand grenades, and the French report
that an attempt by the Germans to advance

AT Calonne the trench battle was even

bombardment of the French artillery, near

teries, and in the Argonne the Germans
claim the capture of a portion of a French
trench. They also made a surprise attack on
Arracourt, near the Lorraine border, but
according to a French report the attempt
failed. Twenty bombs were dropped by
French ~aviators on Dou@i and the neigh
bouring railway stations.
Dispatches from Rome announce that the
