boring in to make the gains the great
est any army has achieved In two
whole years Of fighting on the west

The speed OF the British push
Is best illustrated by the fact that at
several points British cavalry have
had their long sought for opportun-
ity OF going into action.
The German retirement beyond
the battlefields OF the Somme began
slowly. Today 1t has developed into
pursuit at full cry. over trail mark
ed by ruthless use OF the torch by
the retreating Germans and at least
ne instance of poisoning OF wells.
This one instance was at Bar lie Aux.
There British army surgeons dis
covered quantities OF poison In q
well.
The fine drying weather OF the
i'ast three days has proved boon
&c the pursuers. Every moment Of

that II the Adamson law was held "a
be constitutional. that this construc-

TO Il, The railways agreed to thin
at a Joint session between the broth.
erhood chiefs and the managers. And
with much dlfiiculty the chiefs stayed
the strike. an act that was vital to
the success OF our efforts.
I'VE next sought some adjustment
that would be effective should the
law be held TO be unconstitutional
In this regard many propositions
were made to both sides. but none
was accepted until the railroads ex.
pressed willingness to place the
whole matter In the hands Of this
committee.
This action proceeded. as the
letter from the railway managers
states. from n desire TO demonstrate
10 the country that the railroads
would not allow their own conception
OF policy TO stand In the way OF the
fullest use OF the roads at a time Of
severe national strain.
THE committee considered the
