stragetic base of Fere En- Tarde-
nois from two sides. While the
allies artillery and airmen are sub
iecting the city to a terrific bom-

The capture of Epieds has enabl-

A strategic enemy mass estimat-

counter move.
With the strength OF desperation
the Germans succeeded in staying
the allied wave last night and this
morning but our troops methodical-
ly took up the forward movement
as soon as the fu1s of the enemy
assault was expended. The heavi-
est German effort was apparently
aimed at the new Franco-British
positions beyond Vrigny where a
counter attack was launched on a
huge scale.

PARIS, July 25.-German's des-
peration in ruthlessly sacrificing
her man-power and material by
throwing in division after division
on the Scissors front is due to four

at a time which is disrupting the
German summer time campaign.
Second. Foch is using up Ger

GERMANY TO Be
EXCLUDED FROM
PEACE LEAGUE
Curzon Declares Germans
Should be Barred From
League of Nations.
(By Associated Press

LONDON. June 27.-The House of
Lords today discussed the proposed
plans of league of nations after the
war. Viscount Bryce urged the gov
eminent to open an inquiry into the
subject and TO let the world know
that It was doing so.
Earl CurZon of Kedleston, govern.
ment leader in the House of Lords,
agreed with Viscount Bryce that there
was no reason why, without waiting
for the termination of the war, the
government should not discuss the
proposal for league of nations,
which. he said, ought to be called into
existence Immediately the war was
ended. To a large extent, leagues of
nations existed already, as an in
stance. the league of the British En-
pire and the league of over twenty
nations to resist German militarism.
There also was in existence in Paris
machinery representing Great Britain,
France, Italy and the United States
for utility in naval, military and eco
nomic matters.
Nucleus for New League
These leagues, Earl Curzon contin-
ued, represented two-ffths of the hui
cleus on which it was possible to pro-
coed.
In outlining the duties of such a
league as was proposed, Earl Curzon
said that in order to be effective it
ought to embrace all states, certainly
all great states, but it was difficult
to contemplate Germany being adj
mitted.
Describing the inherent difficulties
involved in the idea, Earl Curzon said
he desired the House of Lords to as
sent to two propositions: First. that
If it was desirable to prevent wars, or,
If that was too Utopian, to limit them
and diminish their horrors, to which
end general concurrence and the Ill
innate admission OF all the important
states of the world was necessary.
Great Caution Required.
Second, he said he believed opinions
in England were rather in advance
of the opinion among the allies. ex-
cept possibly the United States. 1t,
therefore, was advisable not to pro-
coed too quickly and thus avoid re-
buff.
The admission OF Germany to 4
league Of nations, Earl CurZon con-
tinued, was impossible until she was
compelled by force of arms to aban-
don her world dream. Therefore, in
the first place, he suggested that
there be two leagues, one friendly
league of allied nations and another
league Of enemy nations. In the
friendly league he suggested that re-
fusal to submit a quarrel to arbitra-
ton should, by the very fact itself,
place the refusing nation in a state
Of war with the others and they should
support eac hother without the need
of any international policy.
These were the lines the govern
ment considered desirable and was
earnestly investigating with the idea
before long of exchanging views with
the allies, Earl Curzon said.
