TANKS PLAY HAVOC WITH HUN TROOPS
CRv Review Leased wIrel

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE. April 26 (By The Associated Press) ).-The slaughter caused by the small British tanks among a concen- trstion of the enemy near Cachy in Wednesdays fighting appears to have
 been even greater than was orig inly reported. A few of these little en; zines. which are much faster than the ordinary big tanks. made the as sault so quicfily on two or three bat talions of the. enemy's infantry whicn were forming for an attack that the Germans were unable to scatter before they were being fiercely deluged with machine gun bullets.
 Not only that. but a large number of men were caught beneath the tanks and ground into the earth.
 Prisoners estimate that at least two and probably three German companies were wiped out in few minutes.
 Tanks Resemble shambIess
 The machines returned fin such hor- rible condition from the shambles that they had to be washed down.
 One German prisoner had a rough MlAH lnt anu lived to tell the story. although he was much shaken as a result of his experience. He got separated from his unit and was hiding in a shell hole near Cachy when a tank charged directly over the hole. It was deep enough to protect the German. but he was so terrified that he lost con sciousness and was just regaining his senses when the performance was re peated by a second tank. Again he escaped and saved himself further trials by being captured.
 Only four German tanks appear to have been in action Wednesday about Villers. .Bretonneux, although numbers of others are rumOred to have been assigned to participate in the attack
 The fourth guards division. which advanced against the town from the south expected seven tanks to ac- company them but three of them did not appear.
 Used Four Tanks
 The German division attacking Cachy was told that four tanks were to support the assault. but these were missing at the appointed hour. Thus. eleven tanks had been figured upon but only four were actually engaged. The German prisoners state they never had seen the tanks before, al- though they had often heard of them. The greatest secrecy appears to have been maintained by.the German high CT command regarding these engines. so much that the infantry had not been trained to work with them :n their initial appearance.
 The German tanks sent into the fight at Villers-Bretonneux acted quite

April 26.-It is re- ported here that Leon Trotzky. the Bolsheviki minister of war and marine. has gone to Mur- mansk. northern Finland, to ar range for an effort by the Russian forces theer to resist the German attempt to push northward. Good feeling between the entente allies and the Russians is reported to be increasing in Petrograd and Mos COW.

 CELEBRATES
 LIBERTY DAY
Record Audiences After n d Two Programs Commemor- ating Raising of Liberty Flag; Business Holiday.

"The Germans can out-hell hell. ." declared Dr. B. B. Won KleinSmid. president of the University of Arizona. in the final address of the Warren Districts Liberty Day program. which concluded last evening at 7:3O o'clock following an afternoon of the most intense patriotic fervor ever displayad in this community. As the university president uttered his epigramatic de scripticn Of the Prussian friehtful- ness in this war, as he painted in words O. vivid realism the horrors of the Hun, the evening rounds of shots on Sacramento hill broke onto the air. The realism of battle in the dis tance, of the booming of guns along the close drawn lines of Flanders and Picardy, came before the minds of the massive audience which filled the City park. An emphasis on which the speaker had not relied for effect had been added to his word paintings, he'd added strength to his denuncia- tiOns of Prussianism and made clear CT his message thst Americans must give their all to. the protection of q birthright of higher ideals and greater civilization and democracy.
 Liberty Day in the Warren District was recognized with the greatest dem onstration in the history of the com munity. From l o'clock in the after noon until almost dark, business stood at standstill while men. women and children celebrated the coming to this district and this county of Honor Flags in the third Liberty loan. Near ly every business house of the entire district closed its doors. Several thousands Of people took part in two parades. Thousands of others lined the sidewalks to witness the demon stration. And on the presentation of two patrictic programs in the City park, benches in the park would not hold the audience. the park itself would not hold the crowd, and the overflow was forced to hang over the iron fence above the park to hear and see.
 And the Liberty flag foated over Bisbee and the Warren District

He declared the fame of the district has gone out over the state. and he ex- pressed his confidence that the dis trict and county will reach the goal they have set in their drive to double the quota of bonds assigned to this division
 The speaker called attention to the unity in purpose which has been weld ed in this great nation in the year since war was declared. In the next breath he warmed against the com plainer, against the man and woman who is continually trying to hamper the government in its work.
 Democracy was born to Europe, said the speaker, in 1S4S. when there swept over France. Italy, Switzerland, and Austria. a new ideal of government.

 Any fresh attempt on the part of the Germans to develop an at- tack from Hangard would be hazardous operation with the allies occupying Villers-Breton- neux and would mean heavy sac rifices of men which they are un- able to afford unless certain of the result.
 In view of their non-success in the first rush despite the fierce nature of their attack. the German commanders may decide for the present to abandon the enterprise of reaching Amiens and try some place else.
