YES. ITS \ GOOD START.

When Field Marshal von Hin1en- burg received the first reports of the great German offensive he said to Emperor William, well, your maj esty, I think we may be we'll pleased with this initial success"
 His majesty likewise had reason to be well pleased with he initial sue cess in the great Verdun attack which ended in a tragedy for Germany.
 And despite the enormous concen- tration of men and guns, and despite the fact that the German forces are fighting under the eyes of the em- peror, the crown prince, Hindenburg and Ludendorff, we are told that the Germans have achieved no greater success than was achieved by the French in the first days of their Somme offensive of 1916.
 If the kaiser did not say it to Hin denburg he may have said to himself Yes, We have made a fine start, but are We going to get anywhere?' If the German forces don't get some where in this last mighty effort to end the war what hope will remain to that military autocracy of which the kaiser is the head ?.-Arkansa Gazette.

TRANSPORT LOADED
 10 ITS FULLEST CAPACITY
Will Rush Troops Across to Aid of Shipyard Work tO Re Much More
 Vigorous.

Washington. Marcl 30.-America is sending troops to France to the full cstacity of every transport ct her disposal.
 This was lolrcei officially tonight from army and navy sources, who ad- del that it is up to the ship building ccrpo ration to turn out more craft ii the urgent allied appeal for further speeding American troops is now to be met
 Practically all the economies in space possibl have been accomplish ed. The turn around has been speeded; dockage facilities in France nave been increased, every cubic inch Of ship space is utilized and wasteful use of tonnage has been curtailed
 The transport fleet is being aug mented by the conversion of a few very few-cargo ships into transport vessels. while the Dutch ships into transport vessels, while the Dutch ships will provide another very small number of extra troop transports.
 The army and navy men said, how ever, that it is now virtually impossible 10 convert further cargo carriers into troop ships, and that evidently the space economies have been accomplished
 The conversion of a few cargo ves sells into transports was under taken be ore Lloyd Georges recent ap- peal for more Americans and the Dutch shipping will relieve virtually only the merchant marine situation
 Conditions Unsatis actOry.
 Food shipments, is was said, cannot be further curtailed with safety all though perhaps some additional cut in meat could be made.
 The United Press informants, men who know the troop transport ques- tion thoroughly, declared that the question as whole get back to the American British shipping output and  that neither of these is now satisfac- tory.
 The shipping board announced dur ing the day that thirty-seven vessels had been launched in March, with total deadweight tonnage of 240,000 This was twelve more launchings than in February. but il was pointed out that launching does not mean the vessel is ready for service. Deliveries were eighteen ships of 162 900 tons against sixteen the previous month of 12.000 deGiweight tonnage
 This does not begin to keep up with German submarine sinkings.
 In other words. the fundamental of the whole problem before America now is one of getting more 1aips, ac- cording to the experts md that was what Lloyd George was appealing tor, when he asked for more American IrooIs

Ireland is finally united. National
lists, Ulstermen and Sim Feiners are
to-day all of one mind. But their
unity is based upon the opposition to
the policy of conscription to which the
british government is committed. Not
only the leaders of these erstwhile war
ring political parties have reached a
common agreement, but twenty-seven
Dishops, representing fourteen hum
ored Catholic priests throughout the
country. have signed a manifesto un-
