Every Woman Should Register
 This Week

The registration of women is not compulsory but every woman in the United States should voluntarily re- port at her local registration booth this week and file her name on Uncle Sam S register, in order that an organized and systematic effort may be made by the woman power of our country to help in winning the war, and winning it speedily. No service is required of any woman other than the service she is willing to give. and the government merely wishes information as to what that service is so that it can be utilized intelligently.
 The woman who fails to respond to this call of her country is as truly q stacker as the man who refuses to register. The registration booth in Dermott is in the Chicot Hotel lobby.
 There is a separate booth for the coored women at the Peoples Drug Store. Dukes Bldg.

ITALIANS WITHSTAND
SHOCK OF AUSTRIANS
international News Service J

Rome. June 21.-The Italians and
their allies have not only withstood tie
shock of Austro- Hungarian offensive,
but are bettering their positions hourly.
A heavy rain 'ell yesterday, increas-
ing the flooded condition of the Piave
river. This is a further advantage to
the Italians.
The Italian war office stated last
night that the battle from the Montello
sector to the Adriatic sea has contin-
ued with great bitterness. The report,
in part, follows:
"On Wednesday evening we drove
the enemy back north of the Montebel-
luno railway. This compelled him to
withdraw his whole line somewhat
towards the northeastern salient in the
sector of Montello. We captured 1,226
prisoners and many machine guns.
Along the Piave river the struggle
is fiuctuating fiercely on the front lines.
The enemy launched an attack in
front of Zenzon with numerous fresh
troops and succeeded in gaining some
ground but was Immediately checked
and forced to retire"
The Italians have been delivering
violent counter attacks in the sector of
Sandona di Piave, which resulted in re-
ducing the fighting zone to a shorter
line.

fensive show 1t was planned In exact
imitation of Won Hutier's efforts In
France and, before that, at Riga. where
the new German tactics were first tried
out. The vital defect Of the Austrian
onslaught was the absence of reserves
deeply echeloned behind the front to be
brought into action In a species OF end
less chain, which insured the Germans
their success. .s
The Austrians, who employed seventy
two divisions (936, 900 mem in their at
tack along the whole front. had not re-

tactics In this essential point. Whether
they can get German help Is problemat-
ical, for thirty-fve German divisions stili

as a state, has ceased to exist already.
In view OF Austrias position, both po-
litical and military. II is believed here
that Germany's renewed offensive on the
west may begin almost any hour. and
observers evidently think 1t will be di-
rected against Calais which all along
has been as great a lure to the enemy as
Paris itself. There is no Disgusting the
fact that this attack will be Of the most
formidable character and take all the
resources of the allies to overcome IL.
but that 1t will be overcome is the con-
fdent belief in France. where faith in
Foch's generalship is now universal and
the working of the unified command per-
fected more every day.

Piave, where the Italians have re-
taken Capo Sile.
(Capo Sile, which is on the Piave, is
seventeen miles from Mestre, which
must be taken before the Austrians
could force their way into Vence.)
The whole Austrian line in the
Montello zone was shaken by the
Italian advance north of the Monte
belluno railway and the hold on the
Austrans on the slopes of Montello Is
being weakened.
Conditions are becoming more and
more advantageous for the allies
along the entire field of combat es-
pecially so on the Piave which has be-
come further swollen by torrential
rains which fell on Thursday.
Whether or not the Germans will
send reinforcements into the Italian
theater to bolster up their hard
pressed neighbor is an unanswered
question as yet, but it Is proba BILE
that this will be done If reserves can
be spared.
Internal conditions in Austria
Hungary are so disastrous at present
that the German high command would
doubtless give aid rather than see the
Austrians sustain a worse defeat than
they have already suffered.
The lnll in the infantry fighting on
the battlefields in France continues.
There have been minor operations.
one of which was brilliantly carried
out by Americans on the Marne front,
but the main forces are still resting
on their arms.

AUSTRIANS UNABLE
TO BRING UP GUNS
Held Firmly at Places Where
They Crossed in Early
Stages of Fighting.

With the italian Armit I'm their at
tack on Montello the AustfSans put off at
9 o'clock in the morning from Falze di
Piave, opposite the northeast corner OF
the plateau, and made the landing on
the slopes of the hill. Masked by smoke
more and more men trickled over and
the enemy began to press inland. Soon
he had strung over a floating bridge so
that reinforcements could be brought
over.
The Austrians fought their way up the
hillside and down the southern slope.
Here they made a junction with another
landing party. They have not been able
yet to bring guns on their new posi-
tion, and Italian counter attacks are be-
ing delivered.
The next sector of the Piave where the
enemy tried to win bridgehead is in
the neighborhood of the double railway
bridge near Ponte Di Piave.
This was a. direct push for Treviso, the
objective which had been held out to the
Austrians as a sure reward of their first
days efforts. About IL o'clock Italian
counter attacks began. From that time
all went well, the Austrians being pushed
back to the river bank and held there
The third place on the Piave, where

Fosialta to a little south of San Dona,

counter attack.
The sum total of the Piave situation is
that the enemy has nowhere done more
than get footing on our side, while his

den floods at his back and with his
bridges being bombed. is not at all COM

BERLIN RESIDENTS
SEEK TO LEAVE CITY
In Airplanes-One Reaches
Denmark but other Brought
Down by Guards.
(Assoclated Press.)

Copenhagen, June 21-Four residents
of Berlin attempted to escape from
Germany Thursday in two airplanes.
One succeeded in landing in Denmark,
but the other was brought down in the
Baltic sea by German guardships. The
machine which landed in Denmark had
two occupants, one of whom a reserve
officer, is a professor in the university
of Berlin. They say they fled from
Berlin because of the conditions there.
The two machines left Berlin early
Thursday morning. Their flight was
noticed and guardships along the coast
were warned. When the machines
reached the Baltic, the guardships
opened fire and brought down the
second of the two airships. The
machine which landed in Denmark is
q large one of the Albatross type.

NINETEEN WOMEN
FOR EVERY MAN

London, June Elf the war ends
this year it will leave the German pop
ulation with nineteen women for every
man. says a Rome dispatch to the Ex-
press today. quoting an italian profess
sor of sociology, who has writer.
book on war and population. He esti-
mates that there are 121 women re-
tween the ages ue 90 and A in Eng
land to every $50 men, while France
has 124 women to every 100 men,
whereas the sexes were evenly hal
anced before he war. The Italian
holds that the race will improve after
the war because men will have larger
selection of women to pick their wives
from and will choose the healthiost
and strongest women.
