GERMANS FORCED
4. TO YIELD GROUND.
Cotton To Be Seized
For War By the u. S.
THE ENTIRE OUTPUT OF THE
COUNTRY IS EXPECTED TO
BE SEIZED.

Washington, June 1.-An order
virtually Communicating the entire
cotton output of the country is mo.
emntarily expected by men in the
cotton industry, it was learned here
today.
Members of the War Industries
Board refused to deny that such a
step was contemplated, and it was
evident that the extensive cotton
needs of this Government and the
Allies had produced situation that
waS acute apd which could be re-
lieved only by a drastic move.
The formal announcement that
John Scott, of Chicago, had been ap-
pointed textile: administrator of cot
ton fabrics, was made this after
noon, and was the first step toward
communicating order will have
taken, it was believed. =
1t was said to be probable that the
same procedure that attended the
taxing over of the wool supply
would be followed and that after
the ,commandeering, when the Gov
ernmeht needs have been determine
ed, the less essential industries will
then be taken care Of.

Mighty Strokes of the
Allies Productive of
- Results.
SEVERAL VILLAGES
.... TAKEN BY FRENCH
No Effort Made by Army of Invad-
ers to Cross Marne-Only Fresh
Gains on Road to Rheims.

The strength of General Foch's
reserves has been felt by the armies
of the German crown prince in the
"battle for Paris" .,..
East of the line running from
SCISSORS to Chateau, Thierry, where
the Germans Saturday in a continu-
alton of their mighty strokes gained
several additional villages, and then
attempted to proceed farther west
ward, magnificent opposition was i'm
posed by the newly strengthened
lines and with terrific smashes, the
French forces recaptured Long Pont
Corey, Foverolles and Troesnes,
vantage points in the center of the
line leading to the forest of Villers
Cotterets, which seems to be the
present objective here Of the enemy.
Villages Held by Huns. Z.
The Germans, however, still have
in their possession the village of
Vaurezis, lying west of Scissors,
and farther south Saconni-et-Br
Cahundun, Licy and Bouresches, the
last named directly west of Chateau
Thierry. A little to the southwest of
Chateau Thierry the enemy, has
reached the Marne. ~ +,
Nowhere has there been any at
tempt by the invaders to cross the
river and tatj all points, east of Cha
teau Thierry, they are hugging the
north bank Of the stream. 1t is not
improbable, however,. that the tao
tics of the Germans have in view
the fording of the river when the
time is more prcpitious, for the CEN
ter of the line between Chateau
Thierry and Rheims they have push
ed back the allied front across the
Rheims-D -Dormans road between Oili-
zy-Viclaine and Ville-en-Tardenois
and are pressing onward toward the
Marne. This is the only point on
their left wing, however, where the
enemy has been able to make fresh
gains, Notwithstanding the fact that
he has brown new divisions into the
battle.
British Raid Trenches.
The British in the regions of Ar
ras, Lens and Bethune are keeping
up their trench raidng operations
against the Germans, Saturday night
contingents German trench south
west of Arras and took 27 prisoners
while east of Lens and north of
Bethune similar maneuvers were
successfully carried out.
There is considerable artillery ac-
tivity by both sides on the northern
sectors of the Western front.
AS yet the expected great battle
has not broken in the Italian thea
ter. There has been only moderate
artillery activity along the whole
front.
German airplanes again have de
livered an attack on Paris. Several
persons were injured.

T0day's War
Summary
(By the Associated Press.)

At no place along the battle line
extending from Scissors to Flanders
has the enemy been able to resist the
Allied armies in sufficient strength to
cause a halt in the offensive move
ment. The Germans, after repeated
defeats at various points,, have given
ground apparently content to
Where, if at all, the Germans plan to
counter attack for the possession of
the Drocourt-Queant line gives added
credence to unofficial reports that still
another line has been prepared

effort will be made to stem the tide
Of the battle. The, British already
have reached Rumaucourt, a short
distance from this new line and both
from the north and the south they are
approaching it.
While the greatest progress con-.
tinues to be made southeast and east
Of Arras momentous events apparent
" are Impending north Of scissors.
Here General Mangin has for. several
days been pushing forward in a slow
but steady advance until he now
holds the key position to the Vesle
front from which, IL their movements
are an indication Of their plan Of
manoeuvre. the Germans plan to re-
treat back Of the Aisne or to the
Chemin des DANES. The Germans
have been forced out of the sAilette
river sector and the main defenses of
the H%indenburg' line are endangered.
A thrust by the Franco-American
f~orces'>at this place would be aaeri-
GUS menace to the German lines
south. and east a Scissors.
