DESCRIBES AIR RAID.

associated Press Dispatch.
 London, March 23.-The Manches- ter Guardian prints the following de- scription of the recent afraid over London as seen from a height, by a correspondent:
 "It was some time after the burst ing of the maroons that the first sound the attack was heard. It came from the northeast, series of quiet, separate noises-plop-plop plop-plop, like porridge boiling. The firing died down and started again from the north in the same gentle way. Then it became quicker, and then died away in soft, flannelly noises.
 Suddenly the firing burst again to the northwest and also to the south, and some near guns began to bay. Then there was activity in the west, and we heard four or five harsh noises that we took to be bombs, ac- companied by faster firing. The last movement was to the south and southeast, and the noise of the guns was near and loud, till thes whole earth seemed full of barking and the skies of explosions.
 At the same time the unseen en- emy, that had been buzEing around our defense like mosquitoes round a net, tried again on the north. It was the last wrestle, and could not contin- ue long. The enemy fell back, and the firing died down until only a few distant guns were firing softly, plor -plop-plop--like a sigh of relief The raid was over."

Representative of Arkansas Press Association Here In Interest of
 Advertising.

James B. Miles, of Little Rock, rep- resenting the Arkansas Press Asso- citation, spent today in Newport, and called on number of the leading citizens of the town in the interest of a publication which the association will issue in honor of the visit to Little Rock in May of the National Editorial Association.
 MT. Miles met with splendid en- couragement here, and it is believed Newport citizens will subscribe to one or more pages in the paper, which will be circulated throughout the United States and be of valuable aid to this section.
 An effort will be made to have the editors stop here for a short time in May wheR they pass Newport on their way to Batesville.

TO ORGANIZE NEGROES.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 25.-The Coun- cils of Defense of the country are con- sidering plans for the organization of the negroes, who can render valuable assistance in the present crisis. It has been demonstrated that commun- ity councils among the negroes are more important in accomplishing war work than organizations of state units. It is also suggested that ne groes, who are accustomed to work together in fraternal and religious organizations, can best be organized for war work in councils composed of both men and women. The local or county councils will be expected to give them every aid and assistance.

CREATE EMERGENCY SECTION

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 25.--To make sure that there will be ample labor to cultivate and harvest the largest crops which American farmers can plant, the U. s. public service reserve will create an emergency farm labor section. w. G. Sprague, of the state labor bureau, who directed a cam paign for U. s. shipyard volunteers that yielded much more than the quo- ta, is the director for Arkansas. It lis announced that campaign will soon be started to enroll at least five hundred thousand workers for this purpose.
 This force is to be essentially re- serve, composed of men who are working on farms in their neighbor- hoods.
 Men who are able to start at once and give all their time during the greater part of the farming season should not go into the reserve, but should find work on the farms imme- diately. Those men who have had farming experience are to be en- outraged to return to agricultural pursuits to aid in the increased food production so needful to help win the war.

PROTECTION FOR OUR
 SOLDIERS AND SAILORS

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 25.-The Sol
 diers' and Sailors Relief Act is now in force and the civil authorities throughout Arkansas are being noti- fled of it's provisions.
 Its aim is to protect persons in military service from excessive hard 1 ship due to the forfeiture of sundry claims and rights and the maturing of legal obligations during their ab- sence in military service, and due to their inability to look after their bus mess and property interests left be- ! hind.
 This act was drafted in the office of the judge advocate general of the
 army, and received thorough over
 hauling in the light of hearings before senate and house committees, at which were present representatives I of the various interests affected. It therefore represents the result of
 several months careful scrutiny by a
 large number of competent persons, in addition to the authority given by it's consideration and enactment by
 the two houses of congress. In view of the serious hardships likely to be suffered in their affairs by thousands of men who have made
 the great act of sacrifice by entering
 military service, and in view of the
 wisdom of forestalling that natural dissatisfaction which might arise if such a measure of relief had not been
 extended, it is hoped that all news Epapers, judges and lawyers will take
 an active interest in giving wide pub licity to this law.

Associated Press Dispatch.
 New York, March 25.- Persistent attacks by strong forces of infantry and lavish use of artillery have not enabled the Germans to breaq through the British defense. Heavy fighting is in progress around Bapaume, near Peronne and where the British and French fronts join. Haig's withdraw all previously planned in case of hea- wy enemy attack, was executed in manner described as masterly. Great credit for success is given to small units which, sometimes outnum- bered nine to one, clung to their posts during the immediate German ad- vance.
 The British made few counter-at- tacks, but all were attempted success ful.
 British efforts were centered on withdrawing as the occasion required, permitting the enemy to wear himself out.
 Sunday the fighting forces in the north reached to the old battlefield on the Somme. Bapaume, the center of the bitter fighting, is the key posi- tion between Arras and Albert. Ber- lin reports gigantic struggle" for it's possession. The capture of Peronne claimed by Berlin, between Bapaume and Peronne. The Germans reached Trinsloy- -Combles -Maurepas line where they were held up by the British.
 At the southern end Of the line the sanguinary struggle has not halted for many hours. The Germans reach ed Chauncy, an important point on the Disc river southwest of La Fere.
 British aviators Saturday brought down fifty-four enemy machines and the British lost none. There is little except artillery activity on the re- mainder of the western front.

any of the cantonments.
The student soldiers will also need
to come prepared to buy their own
food until the feeding arrangements
are permanently organized.
These exceptions in the way of
sleeping quarters and in feeding are
expected to last only until the organ
ization is firmly established and the
government has supplied all details.
1t is not expected that these conditions
will exist for more than a week, or
possibly two weeks at the most.
The suggestions contained in this
order issued by President Womer are
in concurrence with advices received
from the government. There is a pos
sibility that they may be changed in
some slight way, but 1t will be best
for all students to bear in mind the
suggestions and come fully equipped
to Withstand the preliminary condi-
tions without any discomfort.
Up to date. over 275 students have
enrolled for the S. A. T. C. 1t is ex-
pected that later enrollments will
bring this figure up to over 800. The
