MESS|NES RIDGE LAST IMPORTANT
 GERMAN POSITION
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE. June 10.-tNia London. June 10.)-While still further German coun- ter attacks may he expected from time to time, the battle of Messines ridge may be said to be ended. It stood out as a definite operation designed for certain purposes, and it remains to be seen whether other offensive battles have been planned in this particular sector of the western front.
 The taking of Messines ridge has robbed the Germans of the last com manding natural position they occu- pied for so long opposite the British lines. Bapaume and Nimy and Mes sfnes ridges. as well as Monchy pla- teau. five miles east of Arras. have all been captured by the British during the last three months, and this has ma terially changed the military situation on the front.
 When the Germans chose what they were pleased to term permanent lines of defense in 1914 they occupied these vantage points with a foreknowledge of ther strategic, tactical and observa- tion values as keen as that possessed by any French military student. The Germans had a thorough familiarity with, and detailed maps of every square rod of French territory over which they proposed to fight, and when flung back from the Marne had already selected the lines upon which their trench for tifications were to be built.
 It is natural that the German con- muniques and wireless press reports should attempt to belittle the loss o1 these positions, but the British, who have had to endure the handicap oi lying directly under their observation and fire for so long a time, make nc attempt to disguise the satisfaction with which they now look to the flu i ture and what it holds in store fol the Germans, who at last are virtually the under dog
 Of course, there remains the much talked of Siegfried and Wotan lines with their various support systems ot trench defenSes. The Siegfried line represents that portion of the linden burg line between Queant and St Quentin. The Hindenburs line betweel Queant and Arras has virtually beel all taken by the British; so the Ger : (COntinupd on Page TWO1

WASHINGTON, June 10.-Resigned to another hot weather session. con- gross plans this week to dispose finally of important war measures long pend- ing and to begin consideration of new legislation promising at least month or six weeks more work.
 Before this week ends it is hoped to send the delayed war budget and espionage bill to President Wilson. In the meantime the senate finance com mittee will continue revising the war tax bill, expecting to have it ready for debate in the senate the first of next week On the house side, discussion of the rivers and harbors bill will be resumed tomorrow and the agriculture committee will complete it's draft of the food control bill
 After disposing of the conference re- port of the espionage bill, stripped of newspaper censorship provisions, the senate tomorrow will resume debate on the Newlands railroad regulation measure The espionage report has been approved by the house and is eX- pected to occupy little time of the senate. The railroad bill, giving the president authority to order preferen- tial handling of food and other neces- saries is meeting opposition from a few senators but it's passage without delay is generally expected.
 Publishers excess profits and income taxes are the stumbling blocks facing the senate war tax revisionists.
 An early opportunity will be taken this week for an executive session of the senate to consider the many inn portant army promotions for the new army. It is expected all of the nom- nations will go through without ser ious opposition.
