NEW KIND OF WAR
CENSOR; NEWS NOT

Instead George Creel Is Do
ing His Best to Furnish
the Correspondents With
All Information.

Washington, April 1s.-The United
States has already established one war
precedent. Its war censor. has made
up with newspaper men.
Three days after taking hold of the
Job, George Creel, in the position of
censor, the most unenjoyable job in
the gift Of the president, has Wash
ington's 400 newspaper men-skeptics
all on last Monday-rooting for him
to a man. He has turned the trick
by making 1t apparent that he in
tends to add to Noah Websters defi-
milton Of censor.
Instead Of figuring on means of
suppressing news, Creel is putting in
Is hours a day devising means of
promoting II.
REPORTERS FOR HIM.
The first presumption was that his
new Job would align Inn in a fight
with the reporters. Before he had
been on the Job 4s hours, he was lined
up with the reporters In their siege
Of the citadel OF silence, the state
department, commanded by Cor
porar Lansing. He was also working
in cooperation with Secretary Dan
iels, who believes In publicity, but has
been hampered by navy department
red tape, and with Secretary Baker,
who has been at least unfortunate in
his reputation for his relations with
the reporters.
The new censor. who made a rep
utation for himself in the middle west
as fighting reporter. before he came
east to become a star magazine writer
has a very definite idea on the errors
of the censorship.
ALL FOR DEMOCRACY.
Creel has told the reporters that
while the army and navy is fighting
for the democracy Of the world, he
intends to fight for little of the same
in the state, war and navy depart
ments at Washington.
AS Secretary Lansing has already
committed himself to policy of the
public be- damned in the matter of
publicity. there is a feeling that the
first. real war reporting" may fall
to the lot of the reporters covering the
state department.

GERMAN WAR LOAN
CALLED AN ANSWER
TO UNITED STATES

Tho Hague, April 19.-Hailng the
success Of the new German war loan
as "a crushing blow to America"
German newspapers received here to-
day called special attention to the
fact that the loan was noated during
the war preparations Of the United
States against Germany.
The fact that the huge $1,000. 600, 900
loan met practically no opposition in
congress, they point out, had the nee
essary psychological effect in making
the German loan such a success.

Washington, April 49,
The administration is deter
mined that politics shall not
defeat the conscription army
bill, which army men say is
absolutely vital to the safety
of the nation.
The president will stand
for no compromise. He
favors the Chamberlain bill
which provides selective
draft without modification
and will fight for the passage
of that measure.
sQUARELY BEFORE HOUSE.
1t is his purpose to get the bill
through the senate, then put the is
sue squarely before the house. 1t
appears inevitable now that the bill
will be thrown into conference before
final action is taken on it. The house
will vote OH it's bill. which includes
a volunteer feature, next Monday. By

dent would be authorized to call for

viewpoints of those who oppose selec-

"Everywhere success" was the cpl
tome Of today's official statement, de-
failing the continued sweep forward Of
General Nivelle's armies.
The great German defensive posi-
tions dominating Nauroy and Moron
villiers were captured in this sweep
east Of Reims. Smashing blows north
of Vailly and Ostel gained more
ground northeast of scissors. Desper-
ate German attempts to create diver
sions elsewhere along the front failed.
All Goldman counter attacks on ground
newly wrested from their hands in the
st. Quentin to Reims front signally
failed.
Today there is fighting all along the
French front Around st. Quentin,
General Nivelle reported great\ activ-
ity Of artillery. It may possibly be the
precursor of another tremendous in
fantry assault there which will sweep
the town-long menaced--into French
hands.
In the Coucy forest, further south Of
the bend Of the fighting front, the
statement reported patrol fighting.
GERMAN ATTACK CHECKED.
Still farther along. to the north Of
the Aisne. the French commander in
chief reported further progress" north
of Vailly and Ostel. In approximately
the same sector, in the region of Cour-
tecon, due south of Laon, a German
machine gun attack was checked and
stopped.
Further southeast, on tho vauclero
plateau, Ntvelle described O. German
attack Of the most violent character,
launched on Wednesday night at
o'clock. 1t was checked in bitter fight
ing. The assaulting waves were
forced to stop before they reached the
French lines.
In the Champagne. Niverle reported
his troops as pursuing their success
in the Moronvilliers region"
Identification of IL new German di-
visions in one sector between SCISSORS
and Auberives means the Germans
have been forced to mass 2440,00 new
forces there. not only to take the place
of troops cut to pieces by tho French
advance, but in an effort to dam the
flood tide Of the French assaulting
waves.
BLOODY EXECUTION.
Every battle front dispatch received
here emphasizes the bloody execution
of the French artillery. Against the
favorite German defense method OF
massing men. the hail Of Trench pro-
jectiles has been appallingly bloody.
Great gaps are torn in all the enemy

In infantry attacks these decimated

the slaughter has been as great as in

But the German losses do not deter

more men and throwing them into the
range of the French guns, or in reach
