FRENCH DO
THEIR PART TO
EAST AND WEST
Allied Effort to Stabilize Lines
Along Entire Front-Fismes
Securely Held by Americuan
Forces

With the American Army on Che
Fesle. Aug. Shy the Associated
Press)-Under almost incessant shell
fire the Americans struggled forward
today to slightly better positions
north Of the Vesle. French divisions
10 the east and west did their part
IN the struggle on the firing line.
This day was not marked by organ
lied attacks anywhere along the
front but was punctuated by sharp
Amor engagements in which the AM
erlcan gunners successfully covered
the operations Of the infantry and
the engineers. Along the entire front
there was evidently a determination
to stabilize the lines Whether the
rattle that began July IS has virtu-
ally ended or whether the Germans
Will withdray beyond the Aisne are
unanswered questions. To the AM
orleans already north of the river
there was added considerable strength
during the night and early morning
The line tonight is well fixed along
the ROuen Rheims road from near
Bazoches, which still is in the hands
OF the Germans, to point well east
Ct Fismes. The Americans hold
FIsmes APPARENTLY securely. but the
Village of north Fismes proved diff
fcult and at mid day was subjected
to terrific Smelling by the American
artillery with the intention of max
ing it untenable. With that small
point once cleared the line would
run uninterrptedly toward the east
The Germans have had strong ma
CHINE gun positions in Fismes and to
the north and east It was the on
position offered by them that result
Ell in the American determination not
TO attempt occupation by the infant
ry but to destroy the enemy with ar
tillery. In the hills beyond the line
at almost every available point. the
German light artillery have been
placed while the heavy guns are To-
Gated beyong the Aisne and the guns
Of medium calibre are northwest of
Perles, commanding the region about
Bazoches.

ASK BAY STATE
TO GOWITHOUT
SUGAR FOR 2 MOS.

Boston. Aug. S.-A request that the
people of this state. except children and
invalids. forego the use of sugar en-
tirely for the next two months WAS
made by Henry Il. Endicott food ad-
ministrator today
We need all the sugar we can pos
sibly save to send across to our var
partners and our own boys he said
1t is fact that the present ruling
allows two pounds per month per per-
son, but it is also a fact that for the
next few months it is very doubtful
whether enough sugar can be obtained
to distribute two pounds per month per
person.
Therefore I urge every man and w.
man in Massachusetts,, first, TO go with
out sugar entirely for the next two or
three months, and, second, if for any
reason anyone feels that he cannot go
without it entirely, to see how little he
can get along with"
Mr.. Endicott pointed out that with
fruits and vegetables plainly it would be
no hardship for many to abstain entire
~ from the use of cane sugar.

1t is believed that reinforcement are
on the way to help them.
What tomorrow holds for the enemy
cannot be forecasted but the outlook
is not promising one under present
conditions. The weather helped the
advance. North of the attacked zone

Tanks then rolled forward and with
them the infantry swarmed toward
the enemy lines. These lines were

Where the tanks and the armored car

back that British tank, probably one
of the fast little whippets. had been
seen chasing a frightened German gem

U. s. Control of Meat Packing
Industry Asked in Order to
Destroy Existing Monopoly

Chicago, Aug. 8-Protests against
the recommendation of the federal
trade commission that the govern
ment assume partial control of the
packing industry were made today
by some of the heads of the concerns
in the Union Stock Yards.
J. Odgen Armour, president Of Ar
mour & Co, after pointing out that
the government had been in control
of the packing industry since No

ment made by him at the beginning
of the war, that The United States
Government can have Armour & Co..
and every employe and official there
of if need be- was reiterated "A
thousand times more emphatically.'
Edward Morris, president of Morris
& Co, said that the commission ev-
identity desire to place the entire
stockyards and packing industry in
the hands of the railway administra
ton. He added that with profits
limited to not over nine percent on
capital invested, We cannot see
where conditions would be i'm

Louis F. Swift, president Of Swift
& Co., while expressing Willingness
said that I'VE do not believe that the
taking over Of branch houses and
storage houses would be practical.
We hope that the general public will
read the report of the federal trade
commission. 1t contains many sem
sational charges, but careful reading
will reveal few facts TO justify them
