EASY ALLIED GAIN
STRIKES BLOW AT
MORALE OF HUNS

LONDON July S.-The ease with
which ths Australians and Ameri-
cans carried out their attacks in the
Villers- Bretonreaux region on
Thursday should be matter for re-
Election, according to Reuters cor
respondent at British headquarters.
Commenting upon the double vic
tory OF the Australians in this re-
gion, where their latest advance has
given them a good view of the val
ley Immediately in front of them,
the correspondent says that the new
line enables the British to command
for scme five thousand yards a Sc
ries OF long gentle slopes TO the
south OF the Somme. To achieve
such an extremely easy success in a
bit OF country for which the Ger
mans fought so fiercely, he adds,
must obviously arouse suspicion.

SENATORS WOULD STOP
MANUFACTURE OF BEER
AFTER NOVEMBER, 1918


WASHINGTON. July s-Legiia
ton 10 prohibit the sale OF distilled
liquor wine and beer after Jan. /. 1919.
and 10 prohibit the manufacture OF wine
and beer after November next, was
agreed upon today by the senate agrl-
cultural committee
The legislation is proposed as a sub
sttulc for the pending Norris amend
ment TO the emergency agricultural ap-
preparation bill, which would stop the
sale OF distilled liquor and wine on June
20. 1910, and prohibit the manufacture Of
beer three months after the bill becomes
law
Provision FOR the expectation Of
liquors already produced, was consid-
cred by the committee and probably will
be reported in some form before the
senate acts on the amendment
The changes had been discussed for
a number OF days, so that when the
committee met today action was prac-
tically by unanimous consent without
record vote.
BY fixing definite date after which
the sale would be prohibited OF all in
toxicating liquors, members OF the com
mittee believe that any charge OF dis
elimination would be avoided They
say wine growers would be enabled TO
dispose OF this years crop while mer-
chants could make use OF their entire
supply OF material.
