ALLIED VICTORIES | CUT BATTLE LINE | 50 MILES SHORTER
 Initiative Still Remains in Hands of Allies, Says !, Chief of Staff
32 U. S. DIVISIONS ARE NOW IN FRANCE
Increased Transportation of Troops Overseas Depends Upon Securing Adequate Shipping, and More
 Vessels Must Be Chartered

Washington, August 21.
 Allied successes on the Marne,
 in Picardy and in Flanders in
 recent operations have resulted
 in a contraction of the western
 battle front by more than 30
 miles, General March, chief of
 staff, today announced. The
 allies in engagements con
 ducted this week, he added,
 have maintained their posses
 sion of the initiative by making
 attacks on limited fronts and
 at widely separated points.
 At the beginning of the German of
 fensive in March the battle front in
 France measured 250 miles, today it is
 less than 200 miles in length and the latest British gains are reducing it fur ther. General March said he was with out official confirmation of the results of the British advance north of the Scarpe and therefore would refrain from com aSent. s.-s
 eTations he pointed out that the Flar- ders salient had been flattened out py the enemy retiring from one to two
 miles on 14-rnile front; on the plains of Rove the line has been pushed back of the 1916-1917 line and between the Aisne and the Disc the French have carried the line forward four miles to the plains surrounding the city of Noyon, which is foud miles beyond
 Capture of the town of FrapelIe, in the Vosges, the chief of staff said, had re- suited in the elimination of very sharp salient. This operation was carried out by the Fifth American division, which has been under Maj. Gen. John F. Ma hon.
 Thirty-two American divisions have ar rived in France, General March said They are the First to Six inclusive of regulars, the Twenty-slxth, Twenty seventh, Twenty-eighth, Twenty-ninth, Thirtieth, Thirty-second, Thirty-thro Thirty-fifth, Thirty-sixth, Thirty seventh Forty first and Forty-second nationa guard, and Seventy-sixth to Eighty third inclusive, and the Eighty-fifth, Eighty 1 ninth, Ninetieth. Ninety first, Ninety-sec
 ond and Ninety-third national army. 1 Transportation of troops under the en l larged military programme is dependen | in the main upon the ability of the gov ernment to secure adequate shipping | General March frankly said. While thu shipping boars deliveries were constant lily growing. more tonnage will have t be chartered and hired to carry out tn present schedule. General March men | tioned incidentally that Brazil had givei 1 the United States vessel for two trip without compensation.

Washington, Aust 21.-Eight days spent as . prisoner on German sub- marine which was 70 crowded with men that there was scarcely room to sleep, convinced Capt. David Evans, of the British steamer PenistOne, sunk by the U-Boat, that more explOints like the arning of the fishing schOOn- CT Triumph are contemplated by the German raiders. On his visit here, when he reported his experiences to naval officers, Captain Evans cx- plained that the submarine carried 77 men. more than twice the number of normal crew, and his impression was that its effieeFs intended to con vert some captured ship into raider CT use the vessel as . mother ship fer U-boats, though 1t has been re ported that double erews ale carried on submarines to train enough *men to keep ID the warfafe.
 "The U-boat which sunk the Penistone. and which was my prisoner for four days. vaa about -cl feet over all and carried two S-inch deck gilns,' Captain Evans efid. after fe,ltneYnN tfe circumstances which led to his capture. These guns were not protected from the water In any way when the C-boat submerged The breech apparently was water-tight and the muzzles were securely plugged when the guns were not in action. They were kept well greased.

SENATE AND HOUSE !. BEGIN DEBATE ON DRAFT BILL TODAY Senate Defers Three-Day
 Recess in Order to Take Up Measure
LITTLE PROSPECT OF
 AGE LIMIT CHANGE
Only Controversies Expected Are on Work or Fight Amendment and That Postponing Service of Is
 and 19-Year-OId Boys

Washington, August q. Congress is prepared to turn its attention exclusively tomor- row to the man power bill, ex- tending the army draft age limits to all Americans Is to 45 years of age, to provide the army counted upon to defeat Germany next year.
 Debate on the measure will begin sin- ultaneously tomorrow in the Senate ana House, with passage expected in the House before adjournment and by the Senate within few days.
 Exclusive right of way was given by the House today to the measure when 1t was reported by the military committee. with the amendment to defer calling youths Of IS and 1s years of age until all those 20 and over are summoned.
 The Senate has set aside it's three-day pose of taking up the bill. The first bust. ness session of the Senate will be held toniciSc,v and Chairman. Chamberlain oi the military committee tonight antici- pated no difficulty in securing the biIls immediate and exclusive considerations If not passed before Monday when tho national prohibition measure would be- come privileged, the bill probably will be held before the Senate until passed, pro hibition leaders having agreed to lay aside their measure temporarily.
 Passage of the bill by an overwhelming vote in both House and Senate with ths age limits Of IS and 45 unchanged, is deemed certain in all quarters. The only serious controversies expected are over the work or fight amendment of the Senatelmilitary committee, and the House committees amendment postponing serv- ice for boys of IS and 19. Opponents of the latter amendment, to which admin istration spckesmen have made strong objections, tonight predicted 1t would be stricken ard the President left with the authority, proposed in the administration draft, to fix the order of calling all classes.
 For the work or fight legislation op- posed by organized labor, Chairman. | Chamberlain and Senator Thomas of Col orado. it's author, are prepared to make | a vigorous fight, with it's disposition in doubt.
