WASHINGTON May 1.-THE Es-

back to the house and senate before the
administration has had the opportunity
of making one more effort to secure the
enactment of the press censorship
clause.
This clause has already been passed
in the house, but was beaten when the
bill came before the senate. The dis
agreement over the censorship is one of
the main points for reconciliation by
the cOnfeTees. ~
The administration is insistent that
the censorship be established, claiming
that IT is essential to proper carrying on
of the war that the press be subjected
TO such rules as the military and naval
authorities may lay down for the trents

attacks by the British Mesopo-

launching ola victorious offensive
BY the Italian troops are the sal
lent features Of the official com.
muniques issued by the beIIiger-
ent nations yesterday.
The announcement by the Bri-
fish admiralty Of the arrival Of a
tlotiIIa Of American destroyers,
brought out by the news Of a
brush with German submarines
was the item Of most Importance
to Americans, as II appeared to
be to the people Of Great Britain
and France when the announce
Inent was made from London.
The struggle Of the Germans
to force back the advancing Bri-
fish and French continued yester-
day, the Allies allowing them to
waste themselves in futile efforts
against the Entente positions.
The attacks launched by the Ger
mans were among the most tre-
mendous yet seen on that bloody
front and their losses When re-
pulsed by the gun fire Of the men
under Haig among the largest
they have yet suffered. The Bri-
tish have gained ground at BuIle-
court. II
On the Aisne river line the
French were bent back for a time
by the fury Of the German counter
attacks, but succeeded before
the day ended in retaking all of
the ground they had lost and in
fiCting heavy losses upon the
foes. "3aN'.' 10 " s1 III
From Romo came the report that the
new Italian drive on the Austrian
front after months of inactivity is
achieving important results, capturing
the wooded heights on the east bank
of the Isonzo River, and forcing pas

The Italians yesterday carried out
series Of sharp assaults which guar
anteed success for the movement that
began -four days ago. The drive on the
Isonzo front ia continuing steadily.
The intense artillery IRE which pre-
eeded the infantry assaults began on
the morning of May IL, and continued
almost without cessation until the
morning of May IA.
The heavy artillery Of the Italians
smashed the Austrian positions and
prepared the way for the soldiers. The
dnimfire was especially severe. The
Austrians attempted TO reply with err
tain fire. Towards noon the Italian III
fantry attacked Valuable Austrian
positions were taken. Up to date the
capture Of 1915 prisoners and thirty ma.
