The British, French and German

Paris announced that the Germans at
tackled heavily. after an intense bonn
bardment in the vicinity Of Hurtcbix
and Chemin-de-Da but were re-
pulsed. There was also lively ar
tillery activity in Belgium. s.f..
1t is evidently the intention of Gen.
Haig to make Lens and the mining
region around it untenable for the
Germans. and the thrust last night
was part of his plans in this direc-
ton. Air fighting takes up the days
news.
The casualties in yesterdays raid
over England were twelve dead and
twenty-six hurt but the British re-
port that four of the aeroplanes that
participated in the raid were de-
stroyed. f.t
London reports that photographs Uf

coast towns show great damage to

Bureau Of Medicine and Surgery, left
last night for Norfolk under orders
to make an immediate survey and re.
port. so that work in preparing the
properties for occupancy by the navy
can begin as soon as the bill is signed
by the president.
This naval base and training sta
ton Is greatly needed" Secretary
Daniels said, "and we are taking steps
to put it into use as soon as possible.
AS the conferees of both senate and
house have agreed on the appropria-
ton, I feel certain that the provision
for the purchase Of the jamestown
Exposition and Sewalls Point proper
ties will be approved by both houses.
In anticipation Of the final action by

OF the navy has been practically

oners' without the loss of a single
Frenchman.
The French and German lines are
so close that a raid rarely takes moro
than ten minutes-just the time to
race across the open, make the haul
of prisoners and race back with
them again. Night or day makes no
diiference-the main idea is to go
over the top and get back to the
French lines with the prisoners after
causing as much damage as possible
before the Germans have time to
throw in rcinforcemCnts to their
front trench.
