4 GENERAL SURVEY Of
The WAR
MONDAY.

The official reports from the Gall
clan front are little if any more en-
couraging than those Of the last lew
days. While efforts are being MADE
to restore order the Austro-German
offensive between the Stripa and the
Zlota Lipa is being pushed and addl'
tional villages have been occupied.
Toward the northern end of the front
the situation is different. The Rus
slams have taken the offensive and
opened up a gap two miles deep IN
an important sector Of the German line
ne1r Krevo and wilma, incides tally
capturing more than 1000 Germans.
On the western front there is dill
ferent tale to tell The desperate on
sIaughts of the crown prirSe ere bang
met by General Petain's troops. Such
small bits of territory as have been
gained by the Germans have been
dearly paid for.

Tuesday is primary election day

Elsewhere in today's issue we
publish the list of Sc young men
from which it is expected to obtain
43 to make up Highlands
quota for the first army draft.
While there has been a good deal
of speculation as to the number
that will be entitled to exemption,
the Washington authorities seem to
have adopted the 80 per cent.
basis as sufficient, not only here,
but throughout the whole country.
The position of local exemption
board is not an enviable one. While
all accord to them sincerity and
honesty of purpose, it is going to
be hard to avoid dissatisfaction
Much will depend upon those max
ing the required affidavits, as the
local board will have to be guided
by these sworn statements.
From every angle the situation
will be trying, peculiarly so. No

but careful study and clear I'M
Outstanding Of the grounds tor
exemption, may leave him helpless
to offer honest and legal interven-
ton. Then, too, all having taken
equal chances in the lottery the boy
who was fortunate enough to miss
the first draft, perhaps bv a small
margin, will naturally want the full
benefit of his "luck," and will
watch with interest, since the elm
nation of a few numbers may mean
HIM.
Straightforward, strictly truthful
and honest claims are the only Just
and legal ones, and will greatly
lessen the burden of the local board
in giving a square deal.

until they reach the line occupied last
year before General Brusiloff began
his big offensive.
The path of the retreat is traced in
the German official statement report
ing the occupation of Tarnopol, while
down nearer the Dniester their forces
are nearing Buczacz and still further
south have occupied Stanislau and Ma

the edge of the Carpathians.
