NORTHERN FRANCE
AMID BIG BATTLE
CROWN PRINCE ENGAGES IN Sc
RlES OF ATTACKS TO CHECK
MENACE TO FORTRESS.
GERMANS UNABLE HOLD ON
Success of Recent Assaults by Ital-
ians Shown in Losses of Heavy
Artillery by Austrians-Rus-
sian Morale Better.

In the Aisne region of northern
France the German crown prince is
engaged in series of attacks on the
French lines, along and near the
western end of the Chemin-des-
Danes, where the curving front
protects the German fortress of Laon,
which further French advance
would menace.
These attacks at one or two places
met with some success, notably near
Froidmont farm, where on Friday a
considerable salient in the French
line fell into German hands. Friday
night serious attempts were made by
the Germans to debouch from this
salient. The French fire was too
much for them, however, and no
further progress was made. The
artillery fighting continued all day
Saturday with some violence in this
and other sectors of the French
front
In the eastern war theater there
are indications that important fight.
ing may soon be under way.
While conditions in inner Russia
continue uncertain and mixed. the
nations armed forces seem to be
regaining their morale and to be
nearly ready to attack once more.
While the Italians have let up in
their attacks in the Trentino, the
success of their recent assault, which
resulted in the capture of the i'm
portant height of Monte Origara, is
emphasized Sunday in the announce
ment that the Austrians lost some
of their heavy artillery, as we'll as
suffering other losses of magnitude
in the operation. Four guns were
taken by General Cadorna's troops
Allies Continue Attacks.
The French, continuing their smash
ing tactics against the Germans, now
have retaken the greater part of the
territory lying northeast of the NOISY
farm in the region of Vauxaillon
which the army of the German crown
prince captured last week.
To the east in the region of Hurte
bise and Craonne the violent artillery
duel continues and the French guns
have put down an attempted infantry
attack by the Germans.
In several sectors in the region be
tween scissors and Rheims and il
Champagne near Mont Carnillet fight
ing is taking place.

CONTROL Of FOOD:
HOUSE PASSES BILL
STOPS USE OF FooDsTUFFs FOR
THE MAKING OF BOOZE
DURING THE WAR.
BALLOT STOOD 365 TO 5
Prohibition Element Gets Upper Hand
After Hours Of Debate-Appropri-
ates $152, 500 900 for Enforce
ment of the Measure.

Washington - The administration
food control bill, giving the president
broad authority to control the distri-
button of food, feed and fuel for war
purposes, and appropriating $152,500,-
900 for it's enforcement and admins
tration, was passed by the house Sat
urday, after far-reaching prohibition
provisions had been written into it.
Prohibition Gets Control. -
The vote was 365 to 5, Representa-
tives McLemore, Slayden and Young
of Texas, democrats, and Meeker, Mis-
souri,, and Ward, New York, Republi-
cans, voting in the negative.
After several hours of parliamentary
sparring, the prohibition element got
the upper hand and forced adoption
Of amendments forbidding use Of any
foodstuffs during the war for making
intoxicants and giving the president
authority to take over in his discre-
ton all stocks of distilled liquors.
The amendment designed to cut off
manufacture of liquors was adopted,
1872 to ia. 1t was submitted by Rep
resentative Barkely of Kentucky, DEM
ocrat. and would provide that no food,
food material or feed could be used
during the war for the manufacture
of alchohol or alcoholic beverages ex,
cept for governmental, industrial, -scien'
tific, medicinal or sacramento pur.
poses.
Debate is Fiery.
On the amendment authorizing gov
eminent use of distilled spirits, there
was no roll call and only few scat
tered nays were heard on the viva
voce vote.
There was hot debate over the
prohibition features. Vets and dries
accused each other of unfairness and
Representative Meeker of Missouri
republican and Representative Kel.
ly of Pennsylvania, democrat, got in.
to such a row that their friends sur.
rounded them to prevent physical
encounter and then had words they
exchanged stricken from the record
When the house returned to con
sideration of other sections of the
bill an amendment by Representative
Heating of Colorado, providing that
nothing in the bill shall be constru
ed as repeating or affecting the la
Dor exemption provisions of the Sher
man antitrust law, quickly was re
jected, As to 1862. Mr.. Heating read
a letter written by Herbert c. Hoo
yer to Chairman Lever, indorsine
the amendment, but Mr.. Lever in
sisted that a combination of men in
time of national distress might at
tempt to limit the manufacture Of
food necessaries if such an exemp
ton were made.
An amendment was adopted pro
viding that all persons employed In
the administration of the food law
except those serving without compen
sation, shall be appointed under the
civil service law.

Washington-More than half a mil
lion men have volunteered in the Am
erican army and navy in less than
three months, between 100000 and
100000 are enrolled, and most of them
are armed, equipped and under train
ing. They will be Joined at the end of
the summer by nearly 100000 men
from the millions who registered on
June g.
The regular army is nearing the
100000 mark, and the war department
officials, backed by the press, are try
ing to bring it up to 100000 this week.
The national guard numbers nearly
100000, nearly $4,000 actually under
arms, guarding against German plot
tiers in thorough way, as shown by
the trivial damage the plotters have
been able to inflict.
The regular bluejacket force of the
navy, who already are trying their
metal against the enemy in the wa
tiers off the Irish coast under Vice
Admiral Sims, or upon armed Amer
lean freighters, has been raised from
less than 10000 to 100000
An entirely new force of railroad
engineers for duty in France to han
die railroad problems behind the
French fighting lines also has been
created. Probably $4,000 men have
already Joined these regiments.
Forty thousand picked men are un

menace and insuring a clear road for
cargo carriers which are taking thou

The immediate need, administration
officials believe, is to bring the reg
ular army up to it's full strength with
out delay. These are the first line
troops, the men who will be the first
Americans to face the German hosts
They will be the bone and sinew Of
General Pershing's army, and there
must be no delay in getting them
ready to go.
Aim at 10000 This Week.
President Wilson has designated
the present week as recruiting week
for the regulars. Secretary Baker has
sought the aid of all newspapers tt
the end that 10000 men shall be en-
rolled before June 80. No explanation
of the need for getting men by that
time has been given, but it has beer
assumed that it has to do with get
ting forces to Europe.
