London. March 27.--British late
this evening are holding the Germans
ON both sides Of the Somme. In the
Anere Somme Angle, they threw
the Germans back after first yield
ing to the monster war push. Albert
is now in German hands but North
and South Of the town the Germans
have been forced by the British count
cr thrusts TO give up ground previous
ly won. Thus the German right ap-
pears not only checked but endang-
cred on a large scale by British flank
ing movement AZ the same time
the German left is threatened by
the French army on the Disc, where
the Germans have been compelled &c
rush up reserves. Tonight there
is a possibility Of the allies turning
tables on the invaders and launching
a counter pincer drive that may rip
the sides Of his salient wide open and
trap the whole huge army he has
thrown forward into the desert Of
whata was once "Sunny Pickardy."
Checred to the core by this maxi
mum hope. London and Paris never
theless kept vigilant eyes upon the
stern reality that the Germans with
fresh brought up divisions are con-
an attack Of demoniaeal
fury against a limited line between
Royon and Roye. This twelve mile
front for the moment is the crucial
line Of the entire battle. for Il covers
the Anglo-French junction and road

so many persons could be found willing to take
a flyer with "get-rich-quick' concern. Every
investor must have known that he was taking
long chance. Few, probably, could afford their
losses, and those who could had no right to take
the risk with the government in need OF their
money and willing to pay fairly for its use
A plan has been worked out to curtail the
operations of fraudulent promoters by requiring
government approval of proposed security issues
but there is danger that means will be found by
the schemers to get round this. The only real
protection for investors is not to place their mon
ey in any project which is not approved by re-
putable bankers, level-headed real estate dealers
or other business men, and even in this case there
is no insurance against loss. For the great ma
jority of investors government bonds offer the
best opportunity. They assure safety, a good
rate of interest and-more than that-the sense
of duty done and service rendered.

Selling German Property

The extent of the Pan-German propaganda IN
America is daily growing more obvious. FER
sons who laughed at this form OF teutonlc me-
mace few months ago are now beginning TO see
that It permeated our national life to an extent
that is alarming.
The action of our government IN selilng the
holdings of the great German corporations IN TINS
country, which were intimately connected with
the German foreign office, will remove one form
of spreading Kutur and teutonic influence.
Germans sought not only to make money IN
America but also to control public OPINION
through the very corporations which operated
here. They were just as much part OF the Ger
man war machine as were the military and naval
attaches stationed at Washington.
Through these corporations, the German gov
eminent kept posted on financial affairs and was
able to influence many important undertakings.
The Kaiser and high German officials had thous-
ands of dollars invested here.
The sale of these properties to Americans
will place them under American control and Jurls-
diction. The big piers of the German trans-At-
lantic steamship companies are included IN the
property that will be sold.
Kaisersm has to be rooted out of this coun-
try, cost what it may. It's manifestations IN
school books and other sources OF information
that influence the mind of the child must be kept
