says: "a very heavy bo~mbardment
of the important area at Zeebrugge
vas successfully carried out Saturday
morning by our forces. The royal ma
val air service rendered valuable CO.
operation, and over fifteen aerial COM
bats occurred, in which four enemy
machines were destroyed and five
others were driven down out Of con
troll. Two of our machines failed to
return. One of these descended in
Dutch territory and was interned."
Most of the village Of BullecOurt, in
the Hindenburg line, is now in the
hands of the British, who also, accord
ing to the official report from head
quarters in France, occupied the west
ern section of Roeux.
On southern end of line held by

Washington. President Wilson.
speaking Saturday at the dedication
of a Red Cross memorial building to
the women of the Civil War, declared
America united had gone into the
present war solely because it believes
in the principles upon which the
American government vas founded.
"The hearts of the people Of this
country are in this war;" he said.
They think there is an opportunity
to express the character OF the Unit
ed States.
I'VE have no grievances of our
own. We went into this war because
we are the servants of mankind. We
will not accept any advantages out of
this war. We go into it because we
believe in the principles upon which
the American government vas
founded
The building was dedicated to the
women of the North and South, a
fact on which the President dwelt in
emphasizing that the country is unit
ed in the present war.
81 pray God" he said, that the
outcome of this struggle may be that
every element of difference in this ma
ton may be eliminated and that it
will make a single people of those
who call themselves Americans. l be-
lieve this is already beginning to hap
pen and that the spirit of this people
is already united. | hope that this will
be the beginning Of a process which
soon will request the erection of an
other beautiful memorial to a United
America"
The President added that he did not
believe the people yet realized the
sacrifice and suffering that they face.
I'VE thought the scale of u Civil
War was unprecedented" he said,
but it now seems insignificant in the
expenditure OF treasure and of blood
in this great war"
