Q. s. Steel WiH Pay
 $53,918, 900 As Taxes
 For the First Quarter

New York, July 31.-The enormous sums which the big industrial com panies of the country will pay Co the government in the form of excess prof. it's and income taxes was strikingly illustrated today when the United States Steel corporation issued it's financial statement for the second quarter of the year. Total earnings for that period were reduced to $9O,- 579,204, after deducting $5S,91S,S72. or about 37 per cent. as the amount which 1t is estimated will be turned over to the government.
 An additional allowance of $33,se5.- 900 was set aside from earnings of the first quarter of the year for war taxes and excess profitA that amount being based on the tax proposed early in July. but not yet finally adopted
 But for the huge tax to be imposed by the government. total earnings of the Steel corporation for the second quarter would have amounted to s144, 4,49s.076, exceeding the previous high record of the precedingg quarter by more than $S1.0o0.00O.
 Net income for the second quarter fell by reason of the heavy tax ap- propriations from $103,33o,194 of Marcn 31, last, to $74.425.053 and $40,965.76I surplus for the quarter compares with $69,S36.981 three months ago.

 Some officers strongly believe that a great part of the German success here tofore has been due to the fact that the allies have been forced to ac- cept the type of warfare which the German high command elected When the Germans early in the war fell back to the Aisne and dug themselves in the allies followed suit and the opp portunity for field operations was quickly lost. The game was mapped out as the German staff wished it to be played.
 There are officers who believe that with the allies greater forces anG more powerful artillery. they now could be cerain of fairly quick sue cess if trench fighting could be aban- doned for the shift and strategy of field operations. The Germans also know this, these officers say, and have no intention. if they can help if, of permitting any change in the battle scheme they have forced upon their enemies.
 If severe pressure is exerted on the right flank. therefore. the German commanders are expected here to seek relief by an assault or a series of assaults elsewhere along the line. The only answer to such tactics would be to ignore enemy successes of this na- ture and keep pressing home with ev- cry available man the drive at the right flank

FRENCH NIGHT REPORT

Paris, July 31-The French attack today in conjunction with the British was highly successful. according to the official statement issued by the war office tonight At small loss, the French troops carried important Ger man positions and inflicted heavy loses on the enemy.
 The text of the statement reads:
 Having crossed the Yser canal during the night our troops attacked at o'clock this morning in conjunc- ton with the British armies on their right. The formidable artillery prep aration had completely leveled the German organizations and inflicted heavy losses on the defenders
 At the end of the morning our troops had carried two enemy posi- tions and in their dash had spon- taneously gone beyond the objective which had been assigned to them. They advanced on the road between Lizerne and Dixmude and captured the vil- lage of Bixschoote and Kortekerrt.
 Our losses were exceedingly small. We captured important material and took prisoners not yet counted. The battlefield is covered with German dead, showing the magnitude of the enemy losses.
 fOn the Aisne front the artillery fighting was particularly violent. Re- ports up to the present concerning the operation carried out south of La Rover emphasized the splendid atti- tude of our troops. On the entire front of the attacks the objectives assigned having been exceeded. we have been able to clear out the advance trenches which we found filled with enemy dead. The number of prisoners taken exceed up to the present 210. Our losses were slight.
 About II o'clock in the morning the enemy made a counter attack against our trenches west cv LEpine De Chevregny, which was repulsed
 The Germans, after an intense bombardment of our lines at Cerny and Hurtebise, attacked our positions east of Cerny on front of about 1500 metres with three regiments. Our counter attacks immediately carried out drove them back and permitted us to advance along the whole front
 "The day was relatively calm on both banks of the Mouse.
