AMERICAN RELIEF
WORKERS RECALLED

Washington.-Two score American
relief workers in Belgium and Amer
lean Minister Brand Whitlock have
been formally withdrawn from Bel
GUM. Official announcement to this
effect was made at the state depart
ment.
The American relief commissioners
will be replaced as far as possible by
members Of a joint neutral commits.
sion largely under the supervision of
Dutch military officials.
Brand Whitlock will go to Havre.
France, resuming his duties as min.
lister at the temporary Belgian CAPT
tai.
The withdrawal has been inevitable
since the severance Of diplomatic re-
lations with Germany. Soon after
that the German military authorities
ordered all Americans to withdraw,
with the exception of Brand Whitlock
and three others who were restricted
to Brussels.
The action Of the president in or
dering the Americans out was based
on the belief that nothing was to be
gained by keeping Americans longer
in territory occupied by German
troops in Belgium and Northern
France.

Germans Yield Before British

AVOID BEING OUTFLANkED
Berlin Admits Loss Of Roisel and
Falling Back In Forest Region
South Of Lafere.

London. The British and French
troops in France have made additional
important gains against the Germans
on the line running from Arras to
Scissors.
On the British center, at several
points, Haig's men have pushed for
ward nearer the st. Quentin Cambria
road, occupying the villages Of Long.
avesnes, Lieramont and B%uuancourt,
and in addition have reoapSured from
the Germans a position north of
Beaumetz-Lez- Cambria, which the
Germans took in an attack Monday
night.
The gains of the French made
in the region to the south of Lafere,
where they drove the Germans out of
the lower forest of Coucy and also
captured the villages of Petit Barisis
Verueuil and Coucy-La-Ville, bringing
the French line in this region to the
western outskirts of the forest Of st.
Gobain and the upper forest of Coucy.
In the scissors sector further prog
ress was made north Of Neuville-Sur-
Margival and northeast of Leuilly.
To Avoid Being outflanked.
Berlin admits the capture by the
British of the town Of Roisel, about
eleven miles northwest of st. Quen.
tin, and the falling back Of the Ger
mans before the French at several
points in the forest region south Of
Lafere, to avoid being outfanked.
On the Russian front the Russians
have been forced to fall back before
the Germans south of Barnovichl, &C.
cording to Petrograd.
Apparently a renewal of fighting in
Roumania is indicated by the German
official communication, which says the
Russians have been prevented from
carrying out an attack south of the
Trotus valley.
In the Austro-Italian theater along
the Julian front the Austrians made
an attack in force between Dosso
Faiti and Frigido and captured a sec
tion Of Italian trenches on Hill 1875.
About 400 yards of Teutonic allied
trenches have been taken by the
French near the Servraigna crest in
