seriously long while before I made
the decision to become sister. You
can probably lead very useful life

post defending just a part Of Guile

from one of the hardest fought OF
countless scattered actions. marking a
day repIete with bitter fighting. by
killing off every man of the German
assailants.
1t was over a. field carpeted by Ger

British had battered forward to a front
1000 yards east of Hill 140 to the
north. Hardly had the Tommies start
ed to dig themselves in on this hard
ground when the Teutonic counter at
tack came. The enemys guns dug
holes for thousands of their men and
gave the advancing Germans a foot
hold All over the farm the battle
ragged. To the west the one British
post stood adamant. On it beat wave

mendous fire of machine guns halted

THE PRICES
Federal Trade Commission
Makes Report At Nations
Capitol Today.
tBy United Press.)

WASHINGTON. April 26.-Result OF
the first congressionally authorized and
financed price probe as result OF re-
cent soaring prices was reported today
The probe was conducted in the nations
capital. Some, sensational disclosures
were made in the report which says
similar conditions undoubtedly hold in
other cities. Conditions unearthed here
may be taken criterion of what the
federal trade commission may find The
proaers found:
That reports Of food shortage were
misleading.
That prices in many cities were un-
usually high
That "the poor have been compelled
TO resort to the strictest economy to
provide food"
That ''the sale of ordinary cuts of
meats appears to have been discontinue
ed
That CONSUMERS are exhibiting more
frugality than ever before--the falling
orr in garbage collection proving atfifs. /"
That 'tlie element of speculation has
been the biggest factor in the increase
of prices
That shipment of food to belIigerent
countries has not affected the price of
potatoes. eggs and onions but that prices
on these commodities have scared with
the prices of other foods"
That the food situation here is mere
y u part of the food situation of the
rest of the country"
The probers reported that increased
value Of farm land. agriculture inple-
rnents. changed living, etc. have affect
or price changes.

NEW YORK, April 26.-The forty
third day of the great British offens-
i've and the tenth day OF General Ne
villes drive is developing the fercest
fighting of the war everywhere along
the western front.
Germany's army chiefs were hurl-
ing great masses of men against the
French and British today. Both Paris
and London statements today told of
the repulse of terrific counter attacks.
British dispatches from the front re-
vealed standstill north of the Scarpe
river where the British and Germans
were locked in death grip Haig re-
ported repu1se of counter attacks on
Gavrelle. Neville's statement revealed
the greatest efforts by German troops
to force back the French wedge which
has crumbled the southern base of the
Hindenburg line. Most violent of
these was the drive south of Laon. 1t
was delivered on a front of a mile and
half in two powerful smashes, both
OF which were repulsed. The same ef-
fore to relieve Laon from French pres
sure was responsible for attacks on
Naucierc plateau. The French with
stood other counter attacks Of vary
ing force along practically their en-
tire front.
