LLOYD GEORGE ASKS RE|NF0RCEMENTS IN
 LEAST SPACE TIME
Republican A. p. Leased WIrel

NEW YORK, March 27.-A message from David Lloyd George, prime min ister of Great Britain, calling upon the United States ito send American rein forcements across the Atlantic in the shortest possible space of time," was read tonight by Lord Reading, British high commissioner to the United States at a dinner given here in his honor.
 We are at the crisis of the war, at tackled by an immense superiority of German troops" said the premier in his message. Our army has been forced to retire. The retirement has been carried out methodically before the pressure of steady succession of German reserves which are suffering enormous losses.
 Checked for the Moment
 "The situation is being faced with splendid courage and resolution. The dogged pluck of our troops has for the moment checked the ceaseless onrush of the enemy, and the French have now | joined in the struggle. But this battle the greatest and most momentous in the history of the world, is only just | beginning. Throughout it the French and British are buoyed with the knowl edge that the great republic of the west will neglect no effort which can ildSleu us llOOpS anu US SillpS lO Gu- rope.
 Tn war, time is vital. It is impos- sible to exaggerate the importance of 1 getting American endorsements across the Atlantic in the shortest pos sible space of time"
 The dinner, given by the Lotos club in honor of Lord Reading was the most largely attended of any in the history of that organization.
 Must Use All Resources
 After reading the message from Lloyd George, the British high com- missioner declared that every nation arrayed against Germany must muster all it's resources and the enthusiastic devotion of every citizen if the war is to be won. That is the lesson which must be learned. he declared, to achieve victory in the conflict in which the principles upon which humanity is based are at stake.
 Tt is incalculable,' said Lord Read

 "At one time yesterday after noon tho enemy crossed the Ancre near Mesnil, north of Albert, but was counter attacked and driven back across the rovsr. North of this point there is no change in our position.
 "This morning our troops coun- between the angle of the Ancre and the Somme, and re-captured Morlancourt and ChipiIIy. At the same time our troops immediately south of the river again advanced our line to Proyart.
 "The enemy has attacked in the neighborhood of Bocquoy. A fresh guard division has been brought up with this object, but up Ii the pres ent this attack has made no im- pression.
 "A number of other heavy att Jacks were made today on our front both north and south of the Som me. The latest information is that the enemy has heen ranuIead ,uifh heavy loss.

 Senator Jones asserted that if the president and congress co-operated as they should "a feeling of patriotic unity throughout the country that I fear is now lacking but which ought to exist would be created"
 In directing his attention to prifiteer- ing Senator Jones declared that it was everywhere and the nations needs is it's common prey"

 The fight for gain is so fierce that it seems universal" he continued. Tt is confined to no class or condition. What shall we do about it? It is not be- cause we are not patriotic.

Bhey will not cross their race for gain and profit till they do know the urgent need for sacrifice and self denial.'
 Instead of the American people be- ing told the fact the Washington sen ator charged, they are being given mis- leading statements.

EVASTATlON EVERY WnEhG
 All along the 50 mile front from the reigion of Arras to the south of the Disc near Noyon the effects of what was to have been the final stroke to end the war in a victory for the Teu- tons, are only too plainly evident in the re- devastation of the countryside and the wreck and ruin of the towns, villages and hamlets through which the armies have passed. Westward iron, where the old battle line reared itself the Germans everywhere have pushed forward for material gains, but with foes before them who fought with the greatest bravery and stubborness and ceded no ground unless recompensed at usurous rates in men killed, wound ed or made prisoner. It is estimated that in the great attacks delivered in mass formation more than 100000 of the nearly million men the Germans threw into the fray are dead, wounded or in the hands of their foes.
 GERMAN GAIN 25 MILES
 About 25 miles represents the great est point of penetration made at any place by the enemy in his advance. and on the northern and southern ends of the big salient he has left his Hanks dangerously open to counter attacks, which, if successful, possibly might re- suit in a retreat greater than the 1916 Petrograd movement of von Hinden- burg and nullify in its entirety the drive that has been accomplished It is not improbable that British and French reserves and possibly American troops, known to be behind the battle front soon will be thrown against the weakened enemy.
 Notwithstanding the strength of the German drive, nowhere has the British or French front, along the latter of which American troops have qiven good account of their ability as fight CTS, been even dented. Ground has been given, it is true, but so skiIIfuIIy and with such precision of movement that from north to south a surveyor scarcely could have worked out more even line. Still intact in the hands of the allied forces are positions of the old line from which Hindenburq fell back in his Strategic retirement in 1916v
 WHO COMMANDED HUNS?
 Just who is in command of the Ger man forces seems to be somewhat in doubt Late dispatches report that Field Marshal won Hindenburq has oceti dt OVfnSk, m the Russian thedter and German war correspondents as- sert that General von Ludendorff not only planned the offensive but was on the ground last Friday personally to control the attacks.
 On the other battle fronts the opera tons continue of minor character, but but daily the situation in Italy gives greater indications that an offensive against the Italians is in prospect.
 On he other battle fronts the opera tons continue of minor character, but daily the situation in Italy gives greater indications that an offensive against the Italians is in prospect.
 In Russia the situation again att tracts attention by reason of the fact that Ukrainians and the bolshevik have re-captured Odessive from the leu tonic allies and in addition now hold the important towns of NkoIayev, kherson and Zmananka. Reports also have it that the Cossack general Korn- iloff's troops have been surrounded by the Bolsheviki

 PARIS, March 27.-Premier Cle- meneeau told the army committee of the chamber of deputies today that the moment was near when the reserves of the allies would enter into action. The great bat tie now being waeed in France would then take on a new phase, and, he added, there was every reason to hope that the enemy would not retain the benefit of the gains made at such a bloody price.
 There was settling down along the British and French fronts, where the Germans were trying to break through and even within the last few hours there had been noted a slackening in the enemy's effort, he said.
 The premier was before the committee for more than an hour and a half and spoke with full confidence in the future.

l. W. W. Members Given Tar
 For Self and Note for Former Bisbee Attorney; Investigation is Ordered
[RepubIiean A. p. Leased Wlrel

BISBEE, March 27-Walter Johnson, @ member of the I. w. w, was tarred and feathered by unknown persons early this morning between Warren and Osborn. 10 miles southeast of here. He was then given permission to re- turn to this district for his clothing and personal effects, but was warned to leave the city by sun-up.
 Before he left the district Johnson told friends here of the affair. Later he departed in an automobile, boarding U tram probably at Osborn From Iucson he telegraphed details of his experience to Phoenix and Bisbee. ile IS now enroute to Phoenix, where ne IS carrying a written message from those who ordered him from this district, to W. E. Cleary, form eriy resident of this city and among those deported last July. The mes sage, it is said here, notifies Cleary that the supply of tar and feathers has not been exhausted.
 Above His Shirt Collar
 Johnson had been in the Warren district several months. For a time he worked in one of the mines. Re- ccntly however he has been selling l. W. W. bonds issued to counteract the sale of Liberty bonds. A badge bearing the photograph of Little, the ]. w. W. mobbed and hanged in Butte, and which he has been wear ins, was destroyed by the deporting party, it is said.
 Feathers were applied over his en- tire body reports here say, and pas
  him back for his baggage, reported that fringe of feathers could be seen above his shirt collar.
 Governor Gets News Here
 After having held two long distance telephone conversations yesterday with parties at Jerome, one in the morning and the other late in the afternoon, Governor Hunt, fin answer to an inquiry. admitted that he had given instructions that a searching investigation be made into the affair at Jerome which took place Tuesday night and in which William Waldrop, a leading official of the miners union of that town was mysteriously kid mapped and possibly tarred and feath- cred.
 Because of the fact that the gov crnOr leaves Phoenix tonight for Washington to be absent from the state for possibly three weeks. it will be impossible for him to take all active part in the forthcoming in- vestigation. The governor. therefore has asked Wiley E. Jones, attorney general of Arizona, to take charge of the investigation.
 Form of Inquiry Unknown
 What form this inquiry is to take and what it might possibly involve in it's course, would not be con- mented on last night by either Gov ernor Hunt or the attorney general in absence of further and more ex- plicit information in regard to the affair The governors investigation into the Jerome affair may possibly include that of the alleged tarring and feathering of one Walter N. Johnson, said to have taken place on the same night at osborn, near Bisbee.
