Canadian Headquarters in France,
June 26.-In their general advance
on Lens the Canadians have occupied
the strongest outpost in the defense
Of that place and have pushed their
troops toward La Coulotta. The in
creasing pressure on the enemy in the
SoucheZ valley during the last few
weeks has brought signal success to
the British arms with relatively
slight losses. Patrols which were
sent out reached the summit of Res
ervoir Hill without opposition and
pushed on down the eastern slope
and the strong Lens outpost was eff
fectvely occupied. Meanwhile south
OF the Souchez river thu Canadians
drove forward on the heels of the
retiring Germans. Railway embank-
ments east of Lens electric station
were occupied. The advance was then
continued toward La Coulette. AS
night fell strong parties were sent
out to consolidate the positions oc-
cupied while patrols were sent for
ward to keep in touch with the enemy.
Several days ago the Germans
were known to be destroying houses
IN the western 0art of Lens with
the object of giving a wider area of
fire for their guns. They may indi-
cate the intention of clinging to the
eastern side of the city and prolong-
ing the struggle by house to house
fighting.

SHOULD ENGLAND RETALIATE?

The demand in Great Britain for re-
taliatory air raids over Berlin or
Frankfort is entirely Ineligible The
first impulse is to hope that the Engl-
ish government will countenance moth
Ing of the sort and will abstain in the
future as it has in the past from re-
sort to the methods employed by its
opponents. In the face of this hope,
however, there must be an acknowl-
edgment that England would be quite
justified under the international law if
it should send out fliers to drop bombs
indiscriminately on few German
cities.
The law of nations distinctly permits
reprisals in kind Also there is a prac-
teal argument in favor of those who
are clamoring for retaliation A taste
Ct penalty for the outrages inflicted on
the British might have a deterrent eff
feet in Germany, but only if the Ger
man people could be made to under
stand the reason of these visitations.
And here we get to another aspect of
the question, the ignorance of the
mass of the people of the central en-
pire concerning the real nature of the
raids over Great Britain. They are
not 4aught that these raids have for
their principal objective pure fright
fulness, the indiscriminate murder of
women, children and non-combatant
men, they are informed that the at
tacks are on fortified places and are
clearly legitimate. If Entente fiers
were to drop explosives on them they
would not understand why such ac-
tons were being performed they
would misinterpret. and the result
might be the reverse Of desirable.
If there is any lesson in this, it is
that the clean fighter is always at a
disadvantage when he opposes a
despicable enemy-Detroit Free Press.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1917-07-01

EN- in any county, il either highway or
bridge work, the project, with plans.
specifications and estimates, should
first be submitted to the state high
way engineer for his review and ap-
proyal or recommendations Where
county bonds are to be voted for high
way or bridge purposes, the PROPOSE
ton should be submitted to the state
highway engineer before the election
is called and the state highway engi
.neer should make such investigation
as he might deem advisable and sub :
nit a report thereon, so that the
people would have the benefit of his
view of the matter before casting their
ballot.
The above suggestions merely I'M
dertake in a general way to outline
some of the more essential features
that should be embodied in road legis
laton of today
might take occasion to make the
further suggestion that this seems to
present an opportune time to initiate
la movement for the amendment of
your state constitution, so as to per.
nit a greater degree of participation
il. highway work by the state. There
can be no really efficient state partic-
ipation in highway work unless the
state is given full and adequate con-
troll over the work which it under
takes.
1t cannot have this control unless it
is given to it by law, and it cannot be
given to it by law unless authority
therefor exists in the state constitu
ton.
Your state is considerably hamper
ed at this time in the matter of eff1c
lent state highway management by the
existing constitutional restrictions
and an amendment to the constitution
So as to eliminate these restrictions
would prove a great stimulus to high.
way improvement in the state.
