With the British Armies Afield, April
1O'-There is every reason to believe
that by tonight the Great britain smash
win have welded Field Marshal Haig
$4,000 prisoners and between so and 100
guns. The driving force Of the great Of
fensive was undiminished today, even
with bitter opposition from the enemy.
While these figures are unofficial
they are based ON careful estimates and
calculations.
The British have advanced to a point
four miles to the east OF Arras and have
stormed four systems Of trenches along
the north bank of the cearpc to Briond,
which were famous for their boasted
strength.
To the south of the Scarpe today the
British were facing the last system of
the German line, which is nearly op-
posite the famous Hindenburg line. -
From this point the fighting front runs
by Feuchy Chapelle to the cast to Neu-
vile Vitasse and southward. All along
in this section the troops arc now fac
ing the Hindenbrug defenses.
| The fighting had not slaekencd in the
slightest degree today The troops are
immensely pleased to be moving again
after the inaction of trench warfare.

SAILORS SAY U-BOAT
REFUSED INJURED AID
Fire on Men in Boats, Then
Deny Dressings.

COPENHAGEN, July 4.-The survivors
of two Danish vessels sunk by German
submarines gave evidence to-day before
the Maritime Court
The bark Consul Nielsen, proceed Ing
for Stornoway, Scotland. with a British
prize crew ABOARD, was sunk on May 26.
Firing continued from the submarine

The mate was seriously injured and
several other men were slightly in
jured The commander of the sub
marine, which was the U-66, according
to the testimony, declined to give medi-
cal assistance or dressings.
The schooner Freden had an even
worse experience. This vessel was also

prize crew. She was sunk on May lG
without warning, eighty miles from the
Butt of Lewis.
The lifeboat was damaged and several
of the crew were wounded when trying
to repair 1t. One Frenchman was killed
and another was severely wounded.
The firing lasted fifteen minutes al

JOHN BULLFAST
GROWS THINNER
American Visitor Finds Eng
land Enforcing Drastic
Food Regulations.

WASHINGTON, July John Bull iE
wearing his belt tighter than before the
war in the effort to conserve food, ac-
cording to an American economist
whose observations during a recent stay
in England have been digested and made
public by the Office OF Food Administra-
ton here. He says he was hungry con-
enough to eat.
Regulations OF the Ministry OF Food
controlling the serving OF meals in pub
lie eating places are exact and detailed
and are enforced One may have not
more than five ounces OF meat at any
meal. and this means meat in the
kitchen as 1t comes from the butcher
When it comes to the table as edible
meat it is half that weight.
Nor may one have more than two
ounces OF bread, which must be at least
twelve hours old, or more than two
sevenths of an ounce of sugar at any
meal. The London bakers are making
rolls of one ounce and two ounces each.
The rolls are simply miniatures.
The regulation against waste Is dras-
tic. No bread may be thrown away. A
piece OF bread was found in an ash can
by the police. The householder was fined
s.. One hundred and fifty pounds OF
stale cake was found thrown out behind
restaurant. The proprietor was fined
500.
No light pastries. ,muffins, crumpets
or fancy tea cakes may be made. No
currant or milk bread may be made nor
any sugar be used in making any bread.
Many similar restrictions exist and are
enforced.
In addition to the governmental regu-
lations the food controller carries on
continuously a strong propaganda for
voluntary rationing and food saving in
tho home. All households are asked to
limit their consumption of bread to four
pounds a week a person, of meat TO two
and half pounds and sugar three-quar-
ters of a pound.
!, Those families agreeing TO do this put
up in a window, facing the street so that
all may see. a conspicuous card bearing
the legend: I'm honor bound. we adopt
the national scale of voluntary rations."
This pledge of voluntary restriction
has been widely accepted In the little
town of Church Stretton. containing 253
houses. the card is displayed In 225.
There are other records nearly as good.
In some towns the average ration a per-
son has been reduced to an amount be-
/ low that asked for by the Government.

LONDON, July 4.-Twelve to fourteen
German airplanes made q dash across
the Channel early this morning and
dropped bombs on Harwich, on the Es-
sex coast. Eleven persons were killed
and thirty-six injured. On their way
back British alrmen from Dunkirk met
the Germans and brought down two Of
them in flames and damaged a third
airplane.
The raid occupied little more than
five minutes. The Germans had chosen
misty morning. and the clouds hung
low and made the work of the anti-air-
craft guns difficult. The German squad
ron, flying at great speed and in close
formation, headed first one way and
than another, the airmen dropping
bombs in rapid succession.
Within a couple of minutes anti
aircraft fire and British airmen who
rose from Harwich had broken up the
German formation, and the raiders
hastily turned tail and trailed on to sea.
They were pursued by British aviators,
one OF whom was seen attacking two
Germans.
Caught Between Two Fires.
Word of the raid had been flashed
across the Channel to Dunkirk. and as
the Germans neared the Belgian coast
they found themselves caught between
two fires, for more British Girmen
swarmed up to head them of. There
followed a battle in the air over the sea.

brought down on fire and a third was

1t fell to the lot OF his Honor Mayor

BERLIN, via London, July t,-The
movement for an equal electoral fran

unexpected quarters yesterday. when
leading Conservatives Joined in a public
declaration calling on the Government
rent of legislation in favor of election
reform. Their call. which is an unequiv-
ocal Endorsement of the agitation carried
on by the Social Democrats for many
years past, bears the date of June 80,
but Its publication was delayed. 1t
reads:
The mighty struggle in which the
German people are now engaged is not
yet ended The undersigned until now
have been largely of the opinion that
the promise contained in the imperial
Eastertide message for the elimination
Of acrimonious internal struggles might
be fulfilled in collaboration with the
Conservative forces OF our public life.
However. the opposition emanating from
these sources is so powerful as to call
forth doubts whether this Easter mes
sage. in it's true spirit. can at all be-
come reality after the conclusion OF
peace.
Election Reform Demanded.
To-day such doubt is intolerable. To
keep that faith with the German people
to which 1t is entitled II is needful to
take this work in hand without further
delay. We, therefore, do not hesitate
publicly to emphasize the need of the
hour which demands of the Government
that 1t forthwith lay before the Diet
draft of an election reform which not
only calls for a general. direct, secret
ballot, but for an equal voting fran
chise for all, and. further, that the
Government, in addition, give effective,
visible expression OF the confidence TO
which the German people are entitled"
The call is signed by Prof. Hans

LONDON, July 4.-Dr. Won Bethmann-
Hollweg. the German Imperial Chancel-
lor' Will deliver an important speech in
the Reichstag Tomorrow, according TO
report received at Copenhagen from
Berlin by the correspondent of the Ex-
change Telegraph Company.
DR.. Bernhard Dernberg, who for a
time directed German propaganda in
the United States and who left New
York in May, 1915. gave his ideas on
the necessary conditions of peace dur
ing an address at a convention of the
Radical party of Schleswig- Holstein. DR..
Dernberg rejected the idea OF the annex
alton of Belgium, though he is not op-
posed to the partition OF Belgium be-
tween Flemings and Walloons and to
the exaction of guarantees to prevent
another Power obtaining greater in
fiuence there than Germany.
DR.. Dernberg said the annexation OF
parts of France like the Longwy and
Briey ore fields was not desired, al
though corrections of the frontier found
necessary by the military authorities for
military reasons did not exclude the
question of concessions In Alsace-I.or-
raine in DR.. Dernberg's mind, while the
conditions to be demanded in the East
depended upon the developments in Rus
sia.
The former Colonial Secretary ad.
vanced as a concluding demand the
restoration of all German colonies, with
such additions as contemplated in the
Anglo-German negotiations OF 1914. and
the abandonment by the Entente of the
programme Of the Paris economic con.
ference.
