SHORTAGE OF II
STEEL CAUSES
APPREHENSION
Plans Made to Inventory

War Orders. Hif,

Washington. July 16.-Government
demand for steel has reached such
proportions, it was learned today, be-
cause Of the growth of the war pro-
gram, that officials Of the war indus
tries board fear present sources of
supply will SOC prove inadequate.
Action was taken at today's meeting
of the board to prevent steel from
finding its way to industries not hold
ing war contracts through re-selling.
Manufacturers were warned that
those who have obtained steel N pri-
GRITTY orders for var work and later
were found to be re-selling it to nom
war manufacturers would have their
supply cut off. This practice has been
in vogue, the board learned.
All private customers Of steel and
steel products may be required to sub
nit sworn inventories of their stocks
on hand. 1t was found that many.
manufacturers had obtained large
quantities of steel before the gov
eminent took control of the entire
output. By means of the inventories.
supply of the var industries board,
will be able to keep a close check on
all the steel in the country.
Shortage Already Felt.
Chairman Hurley of the shipping
board conferred today with officials
of the war industries board regard
ing the requirements for the ship
building program.
A shortage Of steel already Is being
felt in some shipyards. Others have
more steel than they need.
Other departments Of the govern
ment also are checking up their sup.
plies of material. A tendency to
hoard" has been observed on the
part Of some government agencies, as
well as the public, which It is hoped to
prevent in.the future by exact know
ledge Of requirements and strict al
lotment of output 81.
Additions to steel mills now being
made will add 100000 tons to the
annual output in a few months, but
sufficient to take care OF. the increas-
ed demand.

Washington, June 8.-Evidence that
the government regards the concrete
ship as having passed beyond the stage
or experiment to become a practical
and efficient aid in the country's 8
transportation system was given to-
day in statement by the shipping
board. showing that no less than five
different branches of the government
contemplate building concrete vessels.
Chairman Hurley soon will place
contracts for "a more concrete vessels,
in addition to the 1S already let, MAX
ing total tonnage of 298, 500 ordered
by the shipping board. Most of the
new ships will be $500 ton tankers
and will be built in the five govern
ment yards announced several days
ago.
Concrete barges can be built in
one-fourth Of the time and at one-half
the cost of steel barges, while con-
crete ships complete cost only half
as much as steel vessels
when concrete ship building ia

VANCED.
Germans Believed to Be Held at Ev-
cry Point OF Their Recent Advance.

With the French Armies in France,
June 7, Evening.-(By the Associated
Press): The sharpest fighting con-
tinues around the sector Of Veuilly La
Poterie, Bussiares and Bouresches,
where the Americans and French have
been attacking shoulder to shoulder
for some days, making almost unin-
terrupted progress, Notwithstanding
strong enemy resistance.
The Germans. it is generally be-
lieved, are held at every point of their
recent advance. They seem unable to
execute more than minor attacks,
which are invariably repulsed, where
as the Allied counter attacks are
proving notably successful.
Throughout yesterday. except in the
sector northwest of Chateau-Thierry,
where the French and Americans
made their brilliant incursion into the
enemy lines. and on the Champlat
Bligny line. where the French and
British cooperated in opposing a Ger
man attack, there was little activity
along the battle line by the infantry.
AS for the artillery, the enemy has
increased his volume, but he confined
his attentions chiefly to bombing the
rear Of the Allied positions. In re-
turn the allied cannon left the enemy
positions very little peace, constant
showers Of shells being thrown in.
Wherever the Americans were en-
gagged they gave fresh proof of their
rapid adaptation to modern war con-
ditions and they displayed the great
est initiative.
While the Americans were fighting
to the north of Lucy-Le -Bocage, their
front lines were greatly harried by
German machine gun. When the
position had been located an Ameri-
can patrol made a daring advance.
killed all the enemy machine gunners
and brought back the weapon.

Western Union Telegraph Company in
Chicago Seattle and Spokane wired
President Wilson today that they
would not be parties to any movement
looking to a disruption of the coun-

operators and pledged their loyalty
to the government.
s. j. Konenkamp. president OF tho

result of the refusal of the Western
Union Company to submit to the iuris
diction of the national war labor
board which sought to compose diff
fcrences between the COMPANY and
men growing out Of the discharge of
operators for joining the union.
Some 5000 telegraphers in Chi
cagO told the president they were not

had threatened to call n strike and
that they resented the inference that

British Hear That French Army Holds
Masnificcntly Against German Of

With the British Army in France,
June .. p. NJ. (By the Associated
PresD.-Thus far the attack launch
ed 10y the Germans this morning
against the French between Noyon
and Montdidier has developed nc con-
junctive operation on the British
front, although heavy bombardments
last night and early today against the
British right gave promise for a time
OF more extensive enemy offensive.
German high command is content with
a-southeriy drive with the idea of
capturing Compiegne. with its rail-
ways and Strengthening out the salient
which the enemy has driven into the
French front between scissors and
Rheims,
IL would be unsafe 10 predict az this
juncturc that fighting would not boil
up farther north. Certainly, Won Hin
dcnburg has for considerable time
had his electives ready for a drive
against part of the British front
Whether the enemy will withdraw
troops from the British front and
make the present operations opposite
Paris. his big gamble. only time will
tell II can only be said that today
the German battle line is still pre-
pared for action along the British
zone.
Added interest for the American
soldiers training here Is gwen by the
fact that Cantigny. which the Ameri-
can troops captured. Is just north OF
the light wing of the German storm
troops and likely to have 10 come In
for share OF the heavy lombard
ment with which the enerny preceded
his new move. Latest reports here
are cheerful and II appears from the
meagre news that the French are
holding magnihcently. Intense oom-
bardment developed at various points
along the British front during the
night The forward area on the Brit
ish right was heavily shelled from
n,idrisht to o'clock. From to 4
o'clock the sector east OF Lavievilie
to the southwest OF Albert was under
Q severe gas shell bombardment and
between . and 4 the front zone west
OF Albert was pounded hard. The Ar
ras sector also was put under a Sc
we're barrage.
The attack between Noyon and
Montididier had been expected and
there seemed a possibility that che
enemy would include at least the
British right In this drive.
The bombardment presaged some
thing OF this sort today and troops
were on the alert waiting for any en-.
smy advance.
The German artillery was active
last night between Givenchy and the
Robecq and In the Givenchy sector
the Germans attempted a raid which
was sharply repuised. During the
night the British conducted a raid OF
considerable size against the enemy
trenshes south OF Beaumont HameI
The operation was entirely successful
and 40 prisoners were brought back.
Local hghting has continued east
or Dickebusch Lake and at latest re-
ports the Germans by violent coun-
tersttack appear to have regained
