Germans Driven Back
In All Assaults.

London. May 2s.-British troops
again carried out several raids in va
rious sectors in the last twenty-four
hours, which netted them numerous
prisoners and some machine guns.
The Germans tried several times to
penetrate the French and British
lines but were invariably driven back
with losses. Artillery activity con-
tinues intense in all the vital seq

Oise. The German firing has been
speeding northward from Ypres TO
Nieuport, where the lines rest on the
sea.
This German cannonading between
Npres and the sea has not been In
tense enough to indicate serious az
gressive intentions on that front. but
the possibility that the main blow
may after all fall on this extreme
northern sector where the Belgians
would have to bear the brunt, is not
lost sight Of.
Activity Unprecedented.
The Havas correspondent at the
British front telegraphs that the ar
tillery and aerial activity has reached
unprecedented intensity. In a certain
sector $4,000 shells have been fred
within twenty-four hours. The cor

FOOD EXPERTS
BANDY BITTER
ACCUSATIONS

Bitter accusations are exchanged by
Food Commissioner Hoover and E. c.

story he quoted finally got to be "a

Mr.. Lasater charges Mr.. Hoover with
being mixed up with the Chicago
packers.
The Hoover statement says In part:
Mr. Lasater was connected with
the Food Administration for a few
months, cesigning on November 9, 1917.
During his connection he proved to
have a narrow view of one trade In
terest, with no concern for national
issues, and to have little patience and
little appreciation of the national and
international difficulties to be sur
mounted in any action, no matter how
desirable. His demands for. action on
his own views, without regard to ell
phases Of a problem, made him an i'm
