UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER


Viewed from any angle the German
reply to President Wilson's response
to its overture for peace is eqiiva-
lent to an announcement that 1t Is
prepared for peace on the basis of
unconditional surrender
Shot through and into an atmos-
phere surchargcd with suspiciun-
as natural with anything emanat-
ing from that country of broken pro-
misses and per.idious conduct in all
its international relations for fifteen
Centuries-the suddenness of the
| Hun acceptance of the inevitable
finds its parallel in the prompt re-
sponse of the wise coon who. when
face to afce with destruction, called
from his perch above-'Don't shoot,
Mr.. Crockett. I'll come down"
Faced with the only alternative of
unconditional surrender later. and
perhaps revolution and general dis
aster and disintegration in the mean
short cut to peace with the hope Of
salvaging at least something from

only progress so far made toward
peace is that Germany has asked

back but the Germans returned and pushed IN towards vlners 5retonneu&
With three tanks, leading the Germans got a footing in the eastern fringe
of the town where the battle still is raging.
With the British Army in France, April 24.-The Germans
began a heavy bombardment Of the British positions in the
Somme and the latest reports state that an attack is in pro-
gress. A German bombardment of the British positions on
both sides of the River Lave, on the northern battle front, was
begun at 4 a. m. this morning. AZ large section of this battle
front is seething, although the definite dimensions of the in
fantry action are not yet known
Heavy bombardment by British troops on both sides of the
River Lave was opened early this morning and an infantry at
tack following would mean a drive in the direction Of Bethune,
past which the Lave runs in a northeasterly direction. The
Germans were badly defeated last week in an al-day attack on
this front.
In view of the reports from both the Somme and the Elan
ders fronts, the possibility suggests itself that the Germans
with the Americans in the one sector and Bethune or Haze
brouck in the other as the respective objectives.
Drive on Amiens Resumed
The drive O Amiens, for which the Germans plunged desperately but
failed tt reach in their great offensive last month"; al resumed today. The
line at which the German infantry is again being thrown, N a front of twen-
y miles, extends from the district north of Albert northeast of Amiens, to
the Avre river, southeast of the city Nearly all this front is held by the
British, whose line links up with the French at the River Luce, about three
miles north of the Avre.
1t has been regarded IS almost inevitable that the Germans would again
strike here, Is the advance of their right flank in the Amiens regions was
stopped short by British resistance at Alder, tagging far behind their. left
which was pushed at Castel to within a short distance of the Pais-Amiens
railway. A further driving in of the wedge south of Amiens was thus vr
tuany impossible unless the line to the north could also be advanced.
The attack here furthermore represents a continuation of the persistent
German effort to push in between the French and British. What was appar
launched by the Germans at dusk last evening northwest of Albert. The
British met the advance with a hail Of rifle and machine gun fire, driving back
Meanwhile the enemy has maintained sufficient pressure in the Flanders
area to keep the AngloFrench forces well occupied there.

"At dusk hostile infantry left their
trenches to attack northwest of Al

machine gun fire and were driven
back. Strong hostile attacks de-
veloped also late in the evening in
the neighborhood of Dranoutre and
were repulsed by French troops
after sharp fighting. French and
British artillery inflicted severe
losses on the enemy.
During the night the activity Of
the enemy's artillery continued and
at an early hour this morning a
