HALO ADVANCES INTO HILLS
ENEMY HAS ADVANTAGE
London, April 30.-British advance
along Scarpe was approaching eli
max of intensity in fighting today
With yesterdays captures Of German
positions around Oppy, British forces
have now reached broken, irregular
ground, where natural advantages Of
position are with enemy. Every dis
patch from front today likewise
mentioned extraordinary number of
fresh troops which Germans we're in
terposing and violence of their coun-
ter-attacks.
Slopes and ridges of ScaTpe valley
offer unusually excellent hiding
places. for German machine gun
crews, and German positions along
dominating heights are stragetically
situated for pouring fire down on ad-
vancing British. But despite these
disadvantages, Field Marshal Haig's
troops we're still thTusting forward, |
particularly out Of Oppy and ATleux. |

Why Not Go the Whole Hog?

What's the use Of trifing? We're in
this VIII. Things are getting darker
daily Little by little we're realizing that
we are fddhng about, trying this and
that when we should be bringing our last
resources into play.
Hence, the motion is made and sec
onded. that We go into this war business
TO the limit, that we 20 in to win, and
that we exert every ounce of our force.
To This end let the Government take
over every railway in the United States,
enroll the officials as Government SER
wants, put every brakeman and engineer
on the same basis as the boys in the
trenches, and after paying stock and
bond holders the same rate OF interest
that Government bonds bear, confscate
the remaining profits for national use.
In the same way take over all tele-
graph and telephone companies, main
tanning them as parts of Government
machinery. until the war is over.
Commander every pound Of wheat,
issue ii only i'm Government rations and
send what can be saved TO the Allies.
Likewise all packing houses and their
meat products.
IT what Hoover says about Food WIN
n.ng the war IS true, why monkey with
the matter? Take it ALL and do the busi-
ness right Don't dawdle about pleading
with the ladies to watch the garbage pail.

Why not strike right at the root of this

uniforms: why not the rest of us2 If

we're to put on clothe< of a certain price
and texture, it would show we mean busi-

impossible: What's the matter1
Haven't We spirit enough to get together,
all Of US, and save the last cent, and un-
dergo any restrictions, for the common
good?
If we'd 20 the whole hog at once we
would shorten the war by year or so.
Germany IS organized TO the last man
and school boy; the only nation that can
beat her will be the one that has CUTS
enough 20 do the same.
It is time TO stop big war profits for
private persons, strikes by discontented
laborers, extravaganza by women, and for
the Government 10 take it all, from the
stock Exchange to the Grocery Store.
If the people Of the United States think
they can run this war as side-show
they're mistaken
If they don't get busy in earnest, II

Incidentally, the Whitlock writings
throw a new light on the utter unhtness
of the Prussians to exercise that world
dominion which they crave.
In spite of the outrages which accom-
panied the invasion of Belgium, there
was, Mr.. Whitlock writes, good chance
that many of the people might have be-
come reconciled to German rule.
Most of the inhabitants in the north
ern half of the country spoke the Ger
man language.
They had little sympathy with France.
The atrocities committed by the in
vaders had not been so numerous as in
the French-speaking parts of the coun-
try.
A little kindness, a little diplomacy,
and the people might have become well
disposed toward their conquerors.
But the Germans, instead of cultivat-
ing this opportunity, inaugurated the
brutal policy Of deporting workmen.
This policy united the Belgian nation
against the Prussian system.
A wave Of rage and grief swept over
the land
A tide Of hatred was engendered which
will endure for countless generations.
The Roman empire owed its. success
as a colonizing power to its leniency and
wisdom in dealing with conquered peo-
piles.
Law, order and impartial justice have
been the rule in the growth Of the British
empire.
Contrast this policy with the methods
Of the Germans in Belgium and it is not
hard TO understand why Germany has
failed as a colonizing nation.
Such contrasts also go far TO explain
the fact that the recently conquered
Beers are fighting Loyalty for England.
while Alsace-Lorraine, under PrusSan
rule since 1871, is today as anti-German
Rs when first torn from France.

FRANCES NELSON IN "THE
REVOLT AT AMERICAN

A life of luxury, with swell gowns
and brilliant jewels-or modest lit
tie home and babe? Which would
you choose? That is the question put
up to Frances Nelson in ''The Revolt. "
Needless to say. she chooses the latter
and can you blame her when the The"
is Arthur Ashley? But that was only
the beginning of their troubles. Anna,
as she is called in the picture, had a
stepmother-one with a lax code OF
morals, and who would rather see her
stepdaughter magniflcently gowned
and the pet of some none too scrupu-
lous individual. than in the arms OF
home-loving and honest man. This
is not play of the usual triangle
variety, but one with an unusually
original denouement. 1t is a Brady
Made World Picture, and will be the
attraction at the American theatre
tonight.
