There has been another clash between

that one American soldier was killed.
American patrols have been es-
pecially active the last two nights.
One encountered a German patrol
close to the German lines. The firing
at this point was hot, but brief. There
is believed to have been German cas-
ualties but they can not be de-

EERLIN REPORTS MOST
DESPERATE FIGHTING

Berlin, Nov. 19.-The German Off
cial report from the Italian front says:
In prepared and naturally strong
positions the Italians sought to dis
rute every foot of ground They
threw freshly brought up forces
against our advancing troops but
we're not equal to the unconquerable
offensive strength of our infantry.
Step by step, fighting stubbornly,
the enemy yilded. In particular
desperate encounters Cuero and
Monte Cornelle extending to the
northwest, were taken by storm and
the enemy was driven from his strong
ly prepared positions on Monte Tom
ba, The German storming troops and
the second Bosnia Herzegovina infan-
try regiment especially distinguished
themselves in this action. Eleven
hundred Italians fell into our hands.

London. Nov. l9-Intense interest
in the debate on the creation of an
inter-allied war council and Premier
Lloyd Georges Paris speech on this
subject was shown when the house OF
commons met this afternoon. The
public, peers and distinguished
strangers galleries were crowded,
while every member who could be
accommodated had a seat or standing
space on the floor of the chamber.
The usual hour devoted to questions
having passed. the chief whip. Lord
Edmund Talbot, moved the adjourn
ment of the house, thus giving an OPP
portunity for debate and the former
pl lemier, Mr., Asquith, Immediately
rose.
Mr.. Asquith said that in war re-
sponsiblity for what was done and
what was left undone rested on the
shoulders of the government of the
day, 1t was the business of the ad-
I visers of the government to give coun-
sci as to the best means whereby the
policy of the government could be
brought to a successful issue. 1t was
of vital importance in war that there
Should be frequent and intimate CON
situations among the statesmen of the
allies and as complete coordination
as circumstances permitted Ger
many had the advantage that the pol
icy of all the governments of that
alliance was deCiGed by a central au-
thority; Austria and Turkey had no
voice either in the policy or strategy.
Lloyd Georges Reply.
Premier Lloyd George, in replying
said that far more important than
anything he had said in Paris was to
oecide whether greater unity of con-
troll was needed and whether they
were taking the right course to secure
it. He reaffirmed that the allies had
suffered by lack of coordination and
that any criticism he had directed
against the past was not directed
against any staff or any commander
in this or any other country. He had
merely used certain illustrations
where lack of coordination among the
allies had brough; disaster, without
any blame being attached to COM
mander or staff.
1t had been said that this was an
attempt on the part of the civilians to
interfere with the soldiers, but an in
ter-allied council had been suggested
by Field Marshal Lord Kitchener and
in June, 1917, a scheme for a central
authority was brought forward at
sitting of the chiefs of staff, at which
Great Britain France and Italy were
