New Anti-LOafer Ordinance in
Effect Saturday.
Labor Sentences Will Be I'm
posed by Heinz.
POLICE READY FOR "WORD'
They Will Comb the City Look
ing for oilers.
The Parole System Will Be
Used Very Little.

Topeka's drive against unemployed
men and men engaging in illegal occu-
pations, as authorized under the city
administrations new work or fight"
ordinance, will begin promptly on the
midnight beginning June 1, it was as
serted today at police headquarters.
The ordinance will be in effect fol-
lowing it's publication in the State
Journal Tuesday. Since it's passage no
arrests have been made under it's pro-
visions Police officials explained this
condition today by saying that men
unemployed or engaged in illegal oc-
equations were being given a few days
to obtain useful occupations. Satur-
day, however, will mark the begin
ming of the rigid enforcement of the
law. Any alibi offered by any person
convicted will be given but little con-
sideration, and the day following con-
viction will probably see the convicted
applying his physical usefulness to the
streets or parks.
Penalty Is Heavy.
The new ordinance provides a fine
of from $50 to $500 or 1 5 to 120 days
in Jail or both, or the corresponding
time of the Jail sentence at labor on
the city's streets or parks. 1t is re-
garded as n matter of fact that Judge
Heinz will in most cases pronounce
the labor sentence. Besides putting
loafers and Migrants to work. such
sentences would cut down the cost of
labor on public repair work about the
streets and parks.
The police, it is asserted. will use
their famous strong arm" methods
on those coming under the ordinance
Bootleggers, gamblers, confidence
men, hoboes, petty thieves and COM
mon Migrants will be arrested under
the ordinance and without delay or
ado indicted into the service of the
mJnicina litV for a dpfinifo of
time without pay. 1t is also expected
that little use will be made of the
parole system in connection with
such cases.

LONDON is GRAVE
Fall of scissors and Threat on Rheims
Look Serious.

London, May 29.-The news from
the front tonight is regarded here with
the utmost gravity. With scissors in
the hands of the enemy and Rheims
closely threatened, the question
whether the enemy's original intention
was to make the thrust on the Aisne
front his main operations hardly
arises.
Yesterday the situation seemed to
be more hopeful. from the fact that
the two wings of the allied line were
holding firmly. but the enemy has
developed attacks of such strength on
both right and left that this is no
longer the case.
Dispatches from the front speak of
the fine cooperation between the
French and British in the retirement.
Considerable comment has been
caused by the fact that Field Marshal
Haig. who, in the opening phase of
the Aisne operations. reported their
progress. has ceased since yesterday
evenings announcement to make any
reference to them.

CALL FOR NAMES
Boys Reserve Roster To Be
Given County Agents.
Porter Also Urges Vaccination
for Juvenile Farm Hands.

A letter has been written by Com
missioner w. L. Porter, federal state
director for Kansas of I the United
States Boys Working reserve. to the
Kansas directors, asking them to turn
over the names of all boys they have
enrolled on the reserve and who want
jobs on farms, to the agricultural
agents of the county in which they
live. This step was taken, according
to Mr.. Porter, because it was decided
few days ago at a meeting of sew
eral labor directors of the state, in
Guiding Edward c. Johnson, a repre-
sentative of E. E. Frizeli, state farrn
labor administrator, and Mr.. Porter
himself, that the agricultural agent,
or the emergency home demonstration
person to get the boy and the farmer
together for work on the farm this
summer, because, as a rule, the agri-
cultural agent is always close in
touch with the farmer and knows
their needs.
1t was also stated that, altho, bows
under 16 years old cannot join the re-
serve, there are few cases where
boys who will be 6 this fall want to
do farm work this summer and that
no objection would be made to this
The boys will be allowed to join the
reserve and the bronze service badge
awarded them this fall.
1t was also urged that the boys be
vaccinated against typhoid. Mr..
Porter points out that vaccination has
| absolutely prevented typhoid in the
army, and that it Is just as important
| that the army of boys going to the
| harvest fields take the same precau.

TWO AIMS in VIEW
German Drive for Marne Val
ley and Paris.
Are Being Checked and Held
Everywhere Now.

Paris, May .30.-The allies are
holding the Germans at all points on
the Aisne front, the French war
office announced today.
The battle continued all night and
fierce fighting was still under way.
AS the battle proceeds the enemy's
purpose becomes plain.
First to gain a footing in the Marine
valley. or even to approach within
artillery range of it.
The second objective which the
German staff considers even more
important, judging by the efforts
made at scissors, is to broaden the
salient to the westward. By enlarg-
ing the action there the German crown
prince intends to approach nearer to
Paris on the direct route. The French
command is fully aware of the i'm
portance of this movement.
Altho scissors was evacuated to
prevent needless sacrifice of men. tn"
French hold all the roads leading out
of the town.
Heavy fighting still lies ahead for
the allies but those most competent
to express an opinion are now salts
fled that the German drive will be
stopped in the near future

New American Positions Too
Strong to Yield.
Yanks Turn Ex.German Ma
chine Guns on Fritz.
BY FRED S. FERGUSON.

With the Americans in Picardy,
May 30.-The fifth successive coun-
ter attack against Cantigny was re-
pulsed by the Americans last night.
Yankee artillery responded to the
German barrage with heavy and effec-
tive fire. Machine guns raked enemy
positions.
The new American positions are
rapidly being strengthened. infantry
and engineers digging in regardless of
constant boche Smelling.
Altho they advanced in thick waves
in each attack, only one wave sue
ceeded in reaching the American line.
This happened about z o'clock at
night. The infantry and machine
gunners took heavy toll as the boches
advanced. When the survivors
reached the line they were bayoneted
or shot down. Those who remained
fled in disorder.
Artillery smashed all the other at
tacks. AS the boche waves advanced.
light and heavy guns laid down a
fierce counter-barrage, virtually wip-
ing out the first and second waves.
All the reserve and support positions
the enemy from re-organiZing.
The Americans now have number
of German machine guns and are
pouring bullets from them into the
enemy. The infantry are also using
boche rifles which they captured. Ma
chine guns. rifles and large quantities
of ammunition taken in the capture
of Cantigny were promptly turned
against the Germans.

State Asked To Furnish Several
Thousand Draft Men.
Those Not Physically Fit for
Overseas Can Stay Here.
FIRST DEMAND NEXT MONTH
Nav Be Indicted Under the Sc
Iective Draft Act.
Limited Service Men Have Oh.
pOrtunity To Enroll Now.

Men of draft age and not physical
ly fit for active service overseas may
be indicted under the selective draft
for several thousand such men from
Kansas may be made early next
month, according to information re-
ceived today in the office of Charles
s. Huffman, adjutant general. Vol
unteers have asked for airplane pro-
duction service in this country. If the
necessary 100000 men are not enroll
ed by June s, draft regulations will be
exercised.
Receipt of the drastic order from
the war department today was occa-
sion for much speculation among
army men. The new order is inter-
preted to mean that the government
now plans to call into service mechan-
les and men capable of performing
certain work who are physically unfit
to bear arms. While credits will be
given the state for volunteer enlist
ments for the airplane production ser
vice, there is no question concerning
the governments program in event
the volunteer enrolment is not Suffi-
cient to meet demands.
Men who volunteer for the new
service will be accepted from the So
called limited service class. Men ca
pable of service overseas and at pres
ent in class / will not be taken into
the new work. kilograms received to-
day clearly indicated that the govern
ment plans to meet present demands
for men in the air service production
with men from limited service classes.
Lists of volunteers will be telegraphed
to the war department June 7. The
government will then determine the
quotas required from individual states.
Mechanics Are Needed.
Mechanics will be required by the
government for the new service. 1t is
probable that not less than 5000 men
will be used in the spruce gathering
work. Thousands of other men will
be indicted into service and sent to
the large industrial plants which are
now producing the flying machines
and their sundry equipment
By calling for volunteers the gov
eminent gave to the limited service
men an opportunity to enroll for gov
eminent work. Unless the demand
for 100000 men is met promptly, tho
the government will call upon each
state to furnish men under a special
draft call. The quotas indicted I'M
der such a call would affect only
limited service men and credits to the
various states would be given In
some subsequent call and would ap-
ply both to volunteers and draft in
auctions.
White men only will be accepted
under this call

KSCAUCHT'EM
Germans Tried Three Raids on
Americans in TOul.
Two First Repulsed, Third
Walked Into Ambush.
BY FRANK ]. TAYLOR.


With the American Army in Lor-
raine, May 30.-The Germans sent
over three raiding parties during an
other gas protector attack in a Lor-
raine sector shortly after midnight
yesterday. two of them were virtual
ly wiped out and the third driven off.
The enemy patrols object was to
seek information regarding the result
of the casing nd to take prisoners if
possible.
One of the raiding parties, number
ing about fifty. was beaten off before
it reached the American lines.
The second managed to get fourteen
men into the American trenches. Ten
of these were killed and the other
four were captured.
The third party of fifty men was al
lowed to walk into an ambush. When
the Yankees blaZed away, the few
boches remaining unscathed rushed
pell nell for their own lines. They
left the ground strewn with dead.
