Germany has broken with the shaky
Government OF Russia, but having
stolen about everything that the
Prussian invaders could lay their
hands on. they are probably quite will
ling to relinquish any further respon-
sibility. One of the specifications Of
the peace terms with Germany should
be the sending of an enormous salvage
corps OF the Allied armies to scour
every part Of Germany for the plunder
which has been shipped back from the
invaded territory. Germany will never
get what's coming to her until there
is a thorough reclamation service es-
tablished which will return, so far as
possible, the stolen property Of the
neighboring countries.

SAVE THE LEAVES
[From the Atlanta CONSTITUTION

[From the Atlanta Cons titution1
The season when the raking and
burning of fallen leaves is the order
of the day is upon us, but the house
holder, and especially the war gar
dener, who is provident and thought
full, will rake the leaves that fall
upon and litter his premises, but he
win not burn them.
Instead, he will pile them in heap
or put them in a pit-which is bet
ter-there to let nature convert them
into plant food.
This applies not only to the leaves
that fall during the autumnal sea-
son, when the trees disrobe prepara-
tory to their winter sleep, but to all
manner Of vegetation, such as weeds,
dry grass, dead stalks, etc. that clut-
ter the garden after having served
their immediate purpose All are of
earth earthly. and all were intsndeo
to return into the earth again. That
is in keeping with nature scheme,
The agriculturist who is wise, re-
gardless OF the scale upon which he
operates. will conserve them and
make of them a valuable byproduct
of the years output.

ARE YOU READY?

n My those who are in intimate
touch with the great war work
program of seven wonderful
organizations have any real appre-
citation of the comprehensive char
acter of their big undertaking. OF
all the projects that have been
launched, however, none is more
far-reaching than the determination
of the United War Work campaign
ers to establish among the lighting
forces of the United States overseas
universities for the continuance dur
ing the period of demobilization of
the educational work which was in
terrupted with the breaking out of
the war.
Several thousand professors are
being modified under the direction
of the united campaign leaders for
educational work on the other side
OF the ocean. All the Y. M. C. A.
and knights of Columbus buildings
will be utilized as educational CEN
ters and here the university work
will be. carried on. Millions of dol
lars are necessary for this splendid
effort in behalf of the boys who have
been fighting the battles of freedom
and Justice. Many of the young
soldiers will come back as q result
of this program ready for their de-
grees or prepared to continue their
college careers without any serious
interruption of their studies,

Our belief in the necessity and value
of this work is so great and our

 Mrs. Wilson also played a part in the keel lying, guiding the last verti- cal plate into position and naming the ship as she did so.
 "I havi.t got my union card. but I guess it's all right, laughed the presi- dent. as he clapped a sturdy workman on the 4noulder after the white hot end of the rivet had been beaten to a round head, neatly wedged against the keel plate
 Pretty fair work" commented the ship builder with a grin.
 A great crowd saw the beginning of the first ship to be built in Alexandria since the days when the four masters flourished on the PatOmac and Chase peake Bay.

Enemy Finds French Wall of Resistance Behind City in Suburbs; Battle Continues With Great Violence.

 PARIS, May 30.-"We have prevent ed enemy progress in the western out skirts Of Soissons," says the official report from French headquarters to- night
 "To the south we solidly hold the left bank of the Yser river. The Ger mans are multiplying their efforts in the direction Of Ville-En-Tardenois.
 Tn the center the fighting has not diminished in intensity. The Germans have occupied e-En-TardenOis and Vezilley."
 The battle continued today with un- diminished violence along the whole extent of the front
 ~On our right and to the northwest of Rheims we are holding our posi- tions"
 "The enemy air forces which have been very aggressive and numerous during the battle, have been attacked with the greatest daring by French airmen, who destroyed nineteen Ger man machines brought down two bal looms and compelled twenty-five enemy airplanes to land in damaged condi tion"
 "On the night of May 27-2S, French aviators dropped twenty-three tons of explosives on bridges and crossings on the AileEe and Aisne and on various cantonments. The next night and day thirty-seYen tons of bombs were dropped on conveys, troops and rail- way stations"

NEWS MORE FAVORABLE

LONDON, May 30.-TOnight's news from tho battle field of the Aisne is more favorable. inasmuch as the allies are holding the enemy on the two Hanks at Soissons and Rheims and the Germans rate of progress has been slowed GOwn.

 According to the statement. the en- emy claims to have taken 35 900 pris- oners and a tremendous amount of booty T cannon and material.
 Would Widen Salient
 The indications from official and un- official reports are that. while con tinuing his efforts to widen his salient. the enemy appears to be turning the main directicon of his movement west ward. doubtless with the intention of capturing the railroad connecting with Paris. The push southward 70 the Marne is an attempt to cut the Paris ChalOns lire, in the opinion of the mill tary critics here
 There is some disagreement as vo whether the German high command is likely to make a bigger main attack elsewhere but the movement for Parr- seems 70 square with the idea of the German press that political moves call for blow at the French armies. and that this is of equal importance with a strategic effort to reach the sea either through Amiens or further north with the intention of dividing the al- lied forces.
 Criticisms are beginning to be heard here whether the allies air supremacy was employed to the best advantage. since the Germans have been able for a scond time to assemble huge forces for a surprise attack on a thinly held sectcion of the allied line.
