GERMANS TAKE STAND
ON HINDENBERC line
Admit Retreat Before British
Drive Northeast of
Peronne
FRENCH REPORT
A QUIET DAY
BY PERRY ARNOLD
United Press Foreign Editor


NEW YORK. March 3O.-Omcial
statements today gave fresh proof
that the German retreat has now
probably brought Hindenburgs forces
to their permanent defense line.
The French report. contrary to
those Of previous days, detailing scat
tered fighting over a considerable
front. merely said there was nothing
particular happening
General Haig made no report from
the British front, but press dispatches
indicated decreasing usefulness of
open fighting forces
Berlin admitted a retirement Of
protecting troopsf' I'm the face Of
superior British forces advancing
northeast Of PerOnne. 1t indicated
preparations for mass attacks OF
French troops in the Champagne sec
tor, but declared these preparations
were defeated by concerted German
artillery fire On the Aisnc and the
Marine Canal the Berlin report also
told Of preparations by the allied
troops for attacks and the repuse OF
strong British assaults north OF Arras
at a spot far removed from the cen
ter Of the evacuated territory was also
recounted. These attacks ard
points are presumably designed By the
allies as feints 70 keep German troops
busy and to cloak the real forward
movements and attacks on the Ger
mans on their limo Of retreat from
Arras 20 near Laon
The Petrograd statement detailed
continued aud violent fighting on the
northeastern front featured by gas
waves and heavy artillery firing.

CLAIMS HIS WIFE
GAINED 10 POUNDS
And Says She Does Family
Washing for First Time
in Ten Years.
LOCAL MAN GLAD
TO PRAISE TANLAC

when / explain that Tanlac has
put ten pounds OF weight on my wife
and has given her so much strength
that she is again able TO do the fam
lily washing for the first time in ten
years, you'll know how the name Tan
las is appreciated by u.s." said Abra-
ham solloway, OF Tenth and Madison
streets, to the Tanlac Man at the Mil
Ter Drug Store.
MY wife's experience with Tanlac
Is nothing short OF wonderful" he con-
tinued. "since about 1907 Mrs Solo
way has suffered from indigestion and
catarrh. Being unable to retain solid
foods. she had to live on eggs, milk
and the like She was awfully ner-
vous and could not sleep properly
Too, she was rundown, weak and
tired out all the time. Why, she could
not even help about the house.
1T is hard to believe that, after she
had tried all kinds OF medicines with
out being helped. just three bottles OF
Tanlac could make such a change in
her. But that's the story Now my
wife cannot only eat most any food
she likes, but she can relish what she
eats. for her digestion is fine. And
sleep, why she sleeps the whole night
through just as if nothing had ever
been wrong with her. The catarrh
is greatly relieved and she is feeling
Gne and looking fine in every way.
Knowing this and believing that
Tanlac will do the same for others
We are glad TO offer this Endorsement
for publication"
Commenting on the above story, Ed
ward Halcs Drum. the famous TanlaC
Man. said; Mrs Sideways story is not
the first OF its kind to reach me From
right herb in this city have receiv ed
many equally strong reports on Tan
lacs work. Numberless men anC
women have explained in detail how
Tanlac has gone right TO the seat OF

KENT ISLANDERS
VISIT CAPITOL TO
OPPOSE PROJECT

Headed by Congressman Jesse d.
Price. a delegation OF residents Of
Kent Island. in Chesapeake bay. ap-
peared before the House Appropria-
lions Committee today to protest
against thc plan OF the War Depart
ment to convert q part of the island
into an ordnance proving ground.
More than a hundred residents OF
the island came to Washington to
make indignant objection to what
they regard as an unjust attempt OF
the War Department TO disposseSs
them of their property in one Of the
richest and most attractive regloas
OF Maryland.
1t was pointed out that the island
has been the home for generations
OF many OF the people who will be dis
possessed IL the proposed ordnance
proving ground is located where army
officers are urging 1t.
The island has been settled for 800
years. 1t has been converted into a
veritable paradise. And many of the
families, as the committee was told.
cannot bear to sever the ties that
bind them to the places where they
have been reared and where their
fathers and grandfathers lived
+ 1t is alleged the real demand for
Kent Island as q proving ground
comes not for strategic reasons, but
because army officers who have look
ed II over perceive II would afford
fine place for them to live, with excel
lent hunting, fishing, and boating.
