= ONDON, June 4. - German gains
<mude in the yaux section of Yer

held despite fierce counter attacks made
by the French, according to the German
reports, which are not contradicted by
Paris.
On the Zillebecke section of the
Flemish front, southeast of Ypres there
has been some hard fighting, with the
Germans left last night in possession. of
some of the British positions.
The French reports of the Verdun
fighting state that the Germans were
repulsed in a number of attacks on all
points except at Vaux, where the Teu-
tons wrested some Of the outer lines.
The French are holding the inner, com
handing positions, however.
On the Austro- Italian front the Aus
trians continue to advance, according
to Vienna. In the Southern TyrOl, the
Austrian dispatches announce, they
have captured positions at Arsiero.
British Subs Active
British submarines are active in the
Baltic, according to a despatch to Ber-

presses an opinion that the British are
failing to respect the neutrality of
Sweden and are operating in Swedish
waters.
Three German steamers were sunk by
these submarines yesterday, while a
British torpedo, which had run ashore,
was discovered ON the shore at Skelber-
vixen, evidence, says Berlin, that it
was discharged within the three mile

BRITISH PRESS IS
CRITICAL Of POLICY
WHICH Forced BATTLE
ASSOCIATED Pres. by Federal wirolo.,)

ASSOCIATED Press by Federal wirelesS)
LONDON, June 4.-The press critics
Of the government find fault with the
policy that sent the British battle crui.
ser feet into action against the super
dreadnought and, dreadnoughts of the
German High Sea Fleet, instead of
holding IT to its legitimate work of
guarding the British coast against at
tempted raids.
The London Chronicle leads in this
criticism, saying; "We fear that the
change in the British naval policy which
sent the feet under Vice admiral Beat
ty into German waters, seeking for the
enemy, is due to influence brought upon
the admiralty from the outside and that
the alarm felt amongst the civilians Of
the east coast of England is responsible
for the battle which has Just been
fought, in which the battleeruisers, in
stead of waiting for the enemy to bonn
bard our coast and then trying. to in
tercePt an inferior force, went almost
within sight of the enemy's coast to
engage him.
"Admiral JpllicOe and his staff
should be left absolutely untrammelled

taeular or from any subtle political in
fuence'

MEN
i USING INFLUENCE

The business mems views expressed
in these columns, that improvement in
shipping conditions at the Coast is
bound to follow the influence Hawaii
is bringing to bear towards an early
settlement of the strike, were reiter.
ated yesterday by many individuals,
among them men who are allpowerful
in plantation affairs. The Planter y AS
sociation, as an organization, has taken
no action, nor was 1t so stated.
A. w. T. Bottomley, president of the
association, is quoted as explicitly
denying that the trustees have ever
expressed any sympathies whatever in
the controversy that has led to the wa
terfrOnt strike on the mainland. II
has been stated that we are in sympa'
thy with the strikers in the matter
said Mr. Bottomley. 1--WE have never
taken any action on the subject nor
given any expression, nor have ]
heard that any Of the plantations
have so expressed themselves.
"No matter where our sympathies
nav lie, il would be oficiOus for us OF
any of us to take sides or express
views. 1t a matter for the shipping
people to settle with their labor. Our
only interest in the matter can be the
hope, the strongest desire, that the
strike may be ended, settlement
brought about at the earliest possible
moment
Nevertheless it is acknowledged by
some of the plantation men, speaking
for themselves and the interests
which they represent, that every pos
sible wire is being pulled that will
bring about a compromise between
the shipping companies and their EN-
plOyes.
