As the New Years Campaign
Opens on the Cambria
Fronts.
PEACE CROWD ROUTED
French-Ilalian Forces Score
a Brilliant Success jan
uary lst.

British troops on the Cambria
front passed the last day Of the old
year in a desperate and successful
fight to break down German attacks.
Preceded by liquid fire, the enemy
attempted to rush the British positions
on a front Of 1900 yards around the
Welsh ridges, a commanding position
south Of Marcoing.
The first rush brought the Ger
mans into trenches on the ridge, but
the British, in brilliant counter at
tack, threw the enemy out and re-
stored the position. On the center
and northern ends of the attacking
line British artillery and rifle repulsed
the Germans completely. Elsewhere
on the western front there has been
only artillery duels.
French troops on the Italian north
ern front scored a brilliant stroke in
the capture Of important positions in
the Monte Tomba sector. between the
Piave and the Brenta. Besides the
positions, the French took from the
enemy l,4O0 prisoners, sixty machine
guns and seven large guns.
German airmen continue their raids
on Padua. As in the two previous
raids, the third attack caused few
casualties. but the incendiary bombs
did much damage to costly and his
toric buildings and art objects.
Repulsed in their attempt to retake
Jerusalem, the Turks have been
pushed back TO the northwest until
four defensive lines now stand be:
tween them and the Holy City. Gen.
Allenby's forces inflicted heavy losses
on the Turks and captured more than
600 prisoners. In three days the
British advanced seven miles north
west of Jerusalem.
Troops of the Bolsheviki Govern
ment have been defeated in pitched
battle in Southwestern Russia by the
Ukrainians and CosSacks. Accord
ING to the unofficial report received
in Stockholm the Bolsheviki lost 400
/ prisoners, more than 300 machine
guns and eight big guns. The Cos
sacks are pursuing the retreating Boil
sheviki.

 Musterole is a clean, white ointment, made with oil of mustard. Better than 2 mustard plaster and does not blister.

NAONl0ueu from Fdkt OllCN
 at the beginning O. Russo-Japanese war the Japanese acted without her aiding. Before there was any such formality as a declaration of war a Russian fleet had been smashed and the war was half won. It has been stated in official quarters that this is no concern of the entente allies of America how Japan goes about the task once the question of policy is settled If the decision is reached to give Japan a free hand in eastern Siberia, it is now conceded that no other military or naval power Is in position to render her any substan- tial aid owing to the lack of available forces.
 In a diplomatic way, the situation has remained unchanged since the middle of last week. The state depart ment has not indicated to the Japan csc government what may be its view of the new situation created by the signing of peace articles by the Bol- sheviki. The statement made recent ly by Viscount MotOno that Japan had a working agreement with the entente allies and America in regard to this question, it isasaid has been, taken too literally. Officials say what the viscount probably meant was that there existed a sympathetic under standing on the subject
 Would Like Understanding.
 In seeking an understanding as to scope before going on record as sup porting the Japanese action the Amer ican government is understood to hold that while it has every confidence in the proper intentions of Japan 1t would be easier to convince neutral nations and moreover would enable America and the allies to defeat any German design to organize the ele- ments in Russia on the German side, were there some formal assurance that Russian integrity was not to suffer A high official today expres- sed the opinion that very careful treatment at the hands of the press is needed to avoid embarrassing mis- understandings.
 Information is wanted regarding the exact terms of the peace signed at Brest-Litovsk and it is pointed out that there is as yet no assurance that the terms forced upon Lenine and Trotzky would be accepted by tho Russian people Should there be d resumption of the Russian defense against Germany, that fact would have an effect upon the situation in Siberia, as it might easily make pos sible a friendly agreement between Russia and Japan. whereby the latter government would be authorized to take any military acticn needed to carry out her guarantee of peace in the far east.
