troops made heavy attack last night
on the Verdun front near Hill 304 and
Avocourt Wood after specially severe

footing at only a few points in the
first line
The statement follows:
THE enemy showed very great ac-
tivity on the Aisne front during the
night. Violent bombardments were
followed by severe attacks in the
regions of Carny. southeast of Cor
beny and northwest of Rheims. All
his efforts were broken up by our fire
or nullifed by counterattacks and our
positions were maintained.
The fighting was particularly heavy
in the region of Cerny. where the
enemy made several attacks at two
points on our front. Northeast OF the
village of Cerny, many detachments
succeeded in gaining a footing in our
first line. They were driven out by
an energetic counterattack by our
troops. leaving numerous bodies on
the grounds We took prisoners.

Big-Q Society Calls Off
Its Annual Encampment

The Big-Q Society, which. was to
have held its annual summer camp
on the Isle of Que, opposite Selins-
grove, beginning July 15, has post
poned its outing indefinitely on ac-
count of the war.
The camp has been held annually
for years, the campers being the
guests of Colonel Charles e. Covert,
OF this city, president of the society.
Speaking of the DECISION to postpone,
Col. Covert to-day said: 1T is very
disappointing to call off the camp.
We all enjoy these outings more than
L can tell. But the members of the
society feel that Under the circum-
stances they cannot spare the time
from duties that are pressing. The
war has brought about unforeseen
conditions and the Big-Q Society
feels that it must forego it's pleasure
at this time in order to give attention
to more serious things"

has been renewed to stop the practice
of members of the House extending

Record containing extraneous matter,
such as poetry of the homemade vari-
ETY., speeches by outsiders, kilograms

said to-day that since the opening of
Congress, tomorrow night poems,
seventy articles, fifty-four editorials,
twenty-siX speeches of outsiders, 100

GREECE JOINS ENTENTE
BY ENTERING WAR
tContinued From First Page1

OF youngsters follow them about the
streets, Shopkeepers marvel at the
manner in which the Americans spend
money.
The sexpeditionary forces in France
viii serve under Major General John
j. Pershing and not under any British
or French commander.
General Pershing will cooperate in
every way with both Field Marshal
Haig, in command of the British
forces, and with General Petain, the
French commander. But he will be
in supreme command of the men who
fight under the Stars and Stripes and
will take no orders, excepting from
Washington.
This statement was made by high
American officer to clear up some mis-
understanding that apparently has
arisen in England. 1t answers the
question asked a few days ago in the
English House of Commons, when the
matter of leadership of the American
trops was discussed
Unquestionably this decision will
meet with great favor among the men
who fought under Pershing in Mexico,
and who, while having. the highest
respect for the allied commanders,
much prefer to be under supreme COM
mand of General Pershing.

Wants Peoples Support

administration leaders were SAID
also to feel that such legislation
would be>a disturbing factor in the
economic life of the country and
might lead to serious discomfort
among the workers, whose whole
hearted support is necessary to win
the war.
The President realizes that since
prohibition has been made an issue
in Congress ii is almost impossible
to hope for the elimination of some
sort of prohibitory provision from
the food bill.
No Radical Legislation
Although officials do not pretend
to speak for him, it was understood
that the President would be willing
to accept a measure under which the
use of foodstuffs and fruit in the
manufacture of beverage alcohol
was forbidden out with the author
ity given him to permit their use
in making beer and light wines.
- The Importance of this issue has
overshadowed many others in the
dications to-day that every effort
would be used to have Congress
realize what the administration con-
siders the danger of radical and
sweeping legislation at this time.
Emergency Measure
President Wilson, according to
whom he also conferred regarding
prohibition Legislation, desires that
he have authority to stop the manu-
f9cture of malt and Yinous liquors
in case of emergency but does not
believe immediate prohibition of their
manufacture is necessary or desir-
able.
Postmaster General Burleson,
who often represents the President
in comforting with Congressman. went
to the Capitol to-day and urged sew
eTal Senate leaders to modify the
bill to. permit manufacture of beer
and wines. The postmaster general
was said to have told Senators the
President does not desire to disturb
or divide public sentiment during the
war by cutting off consumption of
light alcoholic beverages in general
uses and that such action is unneces-
sary as it would conserve compara-
tvely small supplies of foodstuffs.
whisky Has No Friends
The provision to stop manufac-
ture of distilled spirits, Mr.. Burleson
told Senators, was not Objectionable
to the President.
Some of the Senate leaders express
ed Increased confidence that the
prohibition sections would be modi-
ned so as to permit beer and wine
manufacture to continue and that
be adopted.
from the White House, Senator
Gerry, who favors brewing and wine
making aind stopping distilling, said
he believed the President would "ex-
ercise sound judgment" on the whole
prohibition issue
Propose Amendment
An amendment to meet the Presi-
dents wishes, Senator Phelan said.
would be offered. probably next week.
The President feels that such ac-
tion ought to satisfy the prohibition
lists as well as all others If he is Civ
en- authority and full responsibility.
IL he deems it necessary in any ener-
gency to prohibit further manufacture
