PROGRESS OF THE WAR

Since the middle of last week the
German armies in Flanders daily
have been trying to wrest from the
British the territory taken from
them in the recent big offensive OF
Field Marshal Haig.
AS on previous days, Crown Prince
Rupprecht of Bavaria on Wednesday
unlea he'd large numbers OF his
troops in an attempt to recapture
terrain on the Ypres sector, Were
the British are seriously threatening
his communication line with Ostend
and the submarine base at Zee
brugye. Ever watchful, the gunners
of Hais again wrought havoc
among the attacking waves, and dis
nersed the Germans with heavy cas-
ualties and retained all their posi-
tions intact.
While British and French airmen
continue their bombing operations
against Gcrmany's submarine tase
at Zeebrugge and points Of military
inheritance behind the lines, the
French aviatorS are keeping up
their attack on German towns and
cite, in reprisal for the Smelling ny
German aircraft of the open towns
Of Barbecue. More than l3'oOJ
pounds of explosives are reported TO
have been dropped on numerous
German settlements, among them the
famous town of Baden, famed as a
health resort.
Likewise. the Italians are giving
The Austrians little respite from

scuirm out OF the hands Of the law
upon the ground that the organiza-
ton was not seeking to Illustrate the
United States in the war and is not
melted by Germas interests and
money. The war has been seiZe1
upon by the organization as the fer
tile ground for the spread Of its dec
trines and for the propagation Of
acts of industrial outlawry, the
United States being regarded as a
fit subject for predatory action at
this time.

It was shown that the death rate
