German Military Authorizes Are
Rushing Preparations For
Another Great Blow. J
MASSING BIG FORCES
Chief Factor In Compelling Teutons
to Seek Rapid Decision is Ever
Increasing Strength of the
American Forces.

On the French Front in France,
May S.-That the further great blow
the German staff must inevitably de.
liver, If it intends to try to carry out
promises made to the German nation
when the last offensive started, must
come soon, is the unanimous opinion
here.
A chief factor in compelling them
to seek a rapid decision is the trans
parent fear of the ever increasing
strength of the American forces, dis
played in the present deluge of Ger.
man propaganda, decrying the Ameri-
can effort. These forces, they fore
see, may become a powerful instru-
ment in bringing about their defeat
before long, and they are certain to
seek success before the transatlantic
army becomes formidable.
Awake to Danger From America.
The Germans are fully aware that
1t is Americas intention to throw her
whole energy into the common cause
of winning the war, and despite their
attempts to belittle American help to
the Allies they are wide awake to
the danger to themselves.
The great activity of the enemy
along the Ypres sector is possibly A
pr olude to the opening of new Ger
man rush there, or is intended to dis
tract attention from a formidable at
tack elsewhere. There is indeed q
widespread view that the next move
must come from the German armies
for attacks to the north, and the
south, but these have since been re-
placed by others and the force gath
cred there is very powerful
Hammerins at Amiens.
From Arras, in the unlikely event
of a German success, 1t could turn
either toward the coast or toward
Amiens, but 1t appears most likely
that the more northerly operation
would be chosen in an attempt to
seDarate the main French and Brit
ish forces. The continued lombard
ment of Amiens is possibly merely a
blind to cover the preparation of this
scheme.
Since the breakdown, however, OF
| the first German rush by the heroic
stand of the French and British troops
the Allies have had time to strength
en- their positions in order to meet
any fresh onslaughts.
The unity of command which fused
all the Allied armies into one and
! the terrific losses suffered by the
enemy without the achievement Of
any success which counts, seem to
have caused the Germans to hesitate
but II is impossible for them to con,
tent themselves with the present po
sitions. which are of the most un
favorable character and defensive tao
| tics

SeIeCtive Service Act Will Apply
to Youths of Il Years Since
June 5, 1917.
STUDENTS ARE EXEMPT
Efforts Will Be Made to Have the
Senate and House Ratify Agree
ment Promptly So That New
Law Can Take Effect.

Washington, May S.-Senate and
agreement on the bill extending the
selective draft to youths who have
become 81 years of age since June 3,
1917.
The amendment of Representative
Hull, of Iowa, providing that the ad-
ditional registrants shall be placed
at the bottom of present eligible
classes was retained.
The House conferees accepted the
Senate provision for exemption from
the draft law of theological and med
ical students.
Immediate ratification by the Sen
ate and House of the conferees agree
ment on the measure will be sought,
that there may be no further delay
in it's use in connection with the new
draft.
Provost Marshal General Crowder
opposed the amendment placing the
new registrants at the bottom of eligi-
BILE lists.
The cOnferees also adopted an
amendment which General Crowder
also opposed, that requiring registra-
ton of men already in the military
service who have attained their ma.
jority since June last General
Crowder thinks this work would be
unnecessarily costly and would be re-
sented by some OF the men in the
service.

AUSTRIANS MAY REVOLT
Manifesto To BE Issued Calling The
l. People To FIGHT For Their
Rights.

Copenhagen, May ;. All work in
Austria-Hungary ceased on May day,
according to information received
here. The workers passed a resolu-
tion demanding an eight hour day.
This is the first information re-
ceived in this country that the demon
stration planned for May day (May u,
the European labor uay, was carried
out successfully. The one day walk
out, organized by trades unions and
socialists, was intended as a demon
stration in favor OF promised electoral
reforms and better food conditions.
To Issue Manifesto.
Berne, Switzerland, May S.-Labor
and socialist organizations in Austria
threaten revolt against the govern
ment action in suspending parliament
Swiss newspapers print a telegram
from Vienna to the effect that COM
mittee of the German socialist dep
uties club have decided to issue a
manifesto to the working class in re-
gard to the government action in
which the following declaration will
be made:
IF absolutism is re-established out
OF regard for pan-Germanism which is
prolonging the war, the working class
es will be forced to fight for their
rights"
The manifesto concludes by exhort-
ing the workers to hold themselves
ready to fight If necessary.

ers-Both Sides of River Avre

Troops Arriving on Front.

Amsterdam, May S.-The German
Press declares the resumption of the
west front offensive will be aided by
a huge offensive on the Italian front,
1t is learned here today.
The combined effort will thus
bring the longed for German success
the German newspapers say.
American Troops Arriving.
Paris, May S.-Active artillery fight
ing occurred on both sides of the
Avre on the front southeast of Amiens,
the war office announces.
West OF Hangard En- Santerre
(where American troops are in the
line) German surprise attack failed" "
said the statement. Our local opera
tions there resulted in the taking Of
some enemy prisoners"
American troops are continuing to
arrive on the front in France, Pre-
mier Clemenceau told MerceI Hutin,
editor Of the Echo De Paris, in return
ing today from a two day visit to the
front area. The premier brought back,
he said, a feeling of confidence in the
invincibility of the Allied forces.
Foe Held In Check.
Lonebray, May S.-Germany's
hordes are still held in check. Neither
in Flanders nor in Picardy nor along
the important Arras sector has the
enemy renewed his attacks in force
and he has not reacted against the
gain made north of the Somme by the
Australians in which more than 200
prisoners were captured.
On both battle fronts, however, the
artillery fire has been most intense
and the German attack cannot much
longer be delayed IL the enemy hopes
to take advantage of whatever damage
has been done to the Allied positions
by the heavy bombardmeNts carried
out by his guns since the repulse
north of Mont KENNEL more than a
week ago. The greatest German ar
tillery activity has been on the north
ern half of the Flanders front and
south of the Somme to below the Avre
In Picardy.
The Austro-H Hungarian blow against
the Italian front has not developed.
Rome reports only moderate artillery
Ere along most of the front from Swift
zerland to the Adriatic and no infan-
try activity. The Austrians, however,
may be waiting for the most favorable
moment, probably the renewal of the
German drive in France.

SHOWER GAS SHELLS
Teutons Throw Thousands OF
Missiles at American Lines.
General Pershins's Men Are In Coco

Emergency.

With American Forces on the
French Front, May S.-A heavy gas
attack against the American troops
on the Picardy front was launched by
the Germans during the night
Early I'm the evening they sent over
$1,000 shells composed chiefly of mus
tard gas within brief period. These
shells were followed by an intense
artillery fire at midnight, when sew
eral hundred shells were dropped in
to the American lines.
Enemy airplanes appeared over the
American lines about the same time.
Anti-aircraft guns brought down one
German machine and damaged an.
other.
The extreme activity of the artil.
lery and aviators, the rifle fires AND
night flares and the reported move
ments behind the enemy lines in
this sector may forecast a new at
tack, but General Pershing's men
are ready for any emergency. They
