of a housing program were thor
oughly converted to it by Mr..
Neiller."
Mr.. Jackson said that many of the
members had expressed to him their
approval of housing program after
having heard Mr.. WELLER. Many of
them were amazed at the declara-
ton of the expert to the effect that
so per CEN. more people are com
Portable housed on the ground used
for the Cameron Extension develop
ment than could have been placed on
the ground in houses built along the
usual overcrowded lines in Harris
burg.
Mr.. WELLER intends to work this
out on paper and send it to Harris
burg as demonstration of the fact
that land can be economically used
without building houses of the tun-
mel type, and by so setting them that
each may have its proper amount
of light and air.
Another subject in which the ex-
pert showed much interest is that
of coming. He believes, with all
other students of municipal growth
and development, that the city
should set aside zones for manufac-
turing plants. business places and
residences, and that each type should
be confined to its own district. New
York and many other large cities
have tried this with success and real
estate owners in particular have
found it worked out to their bene-
fit AT the same time it prevents
from the encroachment of undesir-
able industries upon residential dis
tricts and tends toward making the
city using the system more health
full, as we'll as most beautiful.

Take Hindenburg Positions
Thus far the Allied drive might
have been considered in the light of
defensive operations, but the work
has not paused with the mere re-
pulse of the enemy. His positions
along the Hindenburg line east OF
Arras have been wrested from him,
while farther south, near st. Quen-
tn, the British have in recent days
fought their way into the enemy's
lines where he had planned to stand
on the defensive.
Yankees Wipe Out st. Mihiel Salient
The first American field army has
obliterated the st. Mihiel salient and
straightened the line east of Verdun
and now stands before Metz into
which American shells are falling. .
Before the Allies there now stands
the great lines constructed by the
Germans during four years of war
fare. These are not simple trenches.
but vast field fortifications which
stretch from the North sea. with few
interruptions, to the Swiss frontier.
This general line of defensive po-
sitions has become known as the
Hindenburg line. but to different sec
tions of il have been given names
from the old German epic of the
Niebelungenlied. Thus the Wotan.
Siegfried, Brunnehild and Kriemhild
lines have been mentioned in reports
from the front. They are carefully
constructed with all the science at
the command of the German Cen
eral Staff, and present a formidable
barrier to further allied attacks.
New War Methods to Win
Six months of the warfare of mo-
ton, however. has taught the Allies
that a trench is no stronger than
the troops that man it. In this fact
lies the hope of the Entente nations.
New methods of attack, the employ
ment of tanks" and a higher morale
than ever before in the history of
the war will be relied upon in the
fighting to break the enemy's de-
fensive lines and force new re-
treats.
German Hope Shattered
Germany has lost her chance to
force peace upon. the Allies before
American armies enter the fight with
all their strength. This was her hope
