March had no official word OF to-
days British drive, and hence de
clined to comment thereon.
Discussing the ship situation, the
chief of staff showed that the sue
cess Of present plans depends upon
ships.
America had none when the accel-
Grated troop movement program
started. Hence 1t was necessary to
use the German informed vessels, to
reouisition Dutch ships and to char

tanned from other nations. That has
taken large portion OF money, for,

vessels have proven expensive.
March said that in order to carry
out the work as now contemplated,
additional hiring and chartering must
be done until such time as the Amer

the German front between Albert and
Arras pass through Bapaume. It's
capture by the British would tend TO
push the Germans back to the Hin
denburg line at a point where they
would have to be supplied from Cam
brai
The association Of General Byngs
name with the British success at
Cambria Immediately suggests that
his present strategy has as its ultl-
mate objective the development OF
situation that may again bring Cam
brai into the area of actual COMBAT.
The situation contains highly dra-
matte possibilities, while it is certain
to disarrange still further Won Hin
denburg's essential plans for building
UP a new reserve army.
The double allied drive Is under way
In Plcardy. The British opened a new
attack on a wide front north OF the
Ancre river today. The French are
still smashing forward between the
Disc and the Aisne, Increasing the
menace to the German armies from
the Noyon and Scissors regio..s.
At the same time other French
forces are attacking from the Disc
northward to Roye, pressing upon thu. !
city and Lassi9ny.
7 The British troops continue to pro-
gress In Flanders, perforating the en-
envy lines seemingly at will and ad
Ivancina at other p-irlts as the 5oches
retire Voluntarily.
Haigs men also are showing uni
,.uaI activity In the Arras sector, on
both sides OF the Searpe river.
The extent of the new British drive
was not announced in Raig's commun
| ique today. 1t ls possible, however
that it may extend from the reishbor
hood of Albert northward to the active
sector south of the Scarpe, thus form
! ing a fighting front Of ABOUT twenty
miles. Such an attack evidently would
have as a geographical objective the
| city of Bapaume, eleven miles north
east of Albert and thirteen miles south
and east Of Arras.
To reach this city would require ar
advance OF between five and six miles

month, the war department will bs
forced to curtail troop shipments te
France or take the chance OF an In
dustrial upheayal by invading de
ferred classes, according to Score
tary of War Baker, General March
and Provost Marshal General Crow
der. Opponents of the amendments
today, however. still held out hope
that it can be defeated on the floor.
Every committeeman who voted
against the measure reserved tne
right to fight it. They VIII point
out that the country already has tne
promise OF Secretary of War BAKE.
that boys of Is Will be the last called
and that the calling OF these men
cannot be deferred in any event
later than next June.
General Crowders statement that
such a plan would force amendne1
of regulations and reprinttng Of ques-
ttonnaires, resulting In long delay
and confusion, will also be USED 20
battle the amendment.
Administration pressure may De
called into the fight, il 1t becom es
necessary.
Another amendment opposed by
Baker, which will likely go into the
bill. provides for the drafting OF the
so-caled marriage slackers.
Baker has asked that this be lert
to regulations, because they are NOT
so rigid as written statutes.
The Thomas work or fight amend
ment is almost sure to be left out OF
the bill when 1t goes to the house.
Although the manpower bill will be
reported today, Chairman Dent. OF
the military committee, does not ex-
pect to call 1t u9 until Thursday. He
believes it viii go through in one
day.
The house military committee to
day ordered Chairman Dent to report
the new manpower bill, carrying an
to put men OF Is and IS
IN separate classification, not to be
called until all older men are taken
The bill win be reported fayorably
as soon as It can be printed either
late today or tomorrow.
Committee members who voted
against the amendment and with the
war department are:
Tilson, Connecticut; Crago, Penn
sylvania; Green. Vermont; Olney,
New York; Lunn, New York; Harri-
son, Virginia and Kahn, California
Another amendment, offered by
Lunn, New York,
authorizes the secretary Of war to
assign drafted men to technical and
,ther educational institutions for in
ensive education. Funds appropriated
or quarters and subsistence can be
lsed for this work
Lunn declared that his amendment
ooking to the education Of youths Of
g and 10 might be wholly invalidated
~ the Mckenzie amendment, which
would prevent drafting Of men of
hese ages until they were absolutely
,eeded.
Representative Kahn also de-
the amendment declaring
hat If the chief of staff cannot be
,et1ed upon to state what the army
needed the whole war program is
doomed to failure
"Why try TO pit civilian against
military operation?" Kahn asked.
A third amendment to the bill pro-
rides for the commissioning of men
lnder 81 on the same footing with
,lder men, An amendment to draft
marriage slackers" was lost.
The house today give unanimous
consent for taking up the manpower
bill tomorrow.
