Shortly afterward our troops counter
attacked, expelling the Germans at all
points and occupied parts of the Ger

flicted on the enemy and some prison

light. In one case an American was
taken prisoner but was rescued by

GERMAN GAIN UP TO DATE
Is OF LITTLE REAL VALUE

in exchange for heavy German casual
ties. The allies can better afford to lose
the ground than Won Hindenburg can
afford to lose the men. 1t was in this
same region that General Neville lost
his post as commander in chief Of the
French armies in the spring of 1917 be.
cause OF the failure of his offensive.
Neville at that time made a greater
advance than Won Hindenburg has sue
ceeded in doing, but the French gov
ernment did not consider the heavy cas-
|ualties were worth the ground gained.
If, therefore, Won Hindenburg wishes
to pay the cost in slaughtered German
man power for recovery Of the terri
tory that fell to the French last year,
General .Foch undoubtedly will be con.
tent. Two other schools of strategy are
represented in the encounter. The
French removed their commander in
chief for doing what Won Hindenburg
expects to be worth iron crosses
The crossing of the Aisne near Berry.
au-Bac puts the Germans on the south

Immediately to the south of Berry
au-Bac are ranges of hills that form
splendid traps for the gathering OF tolls
of death by the Anglo-French forces.
At no place could it have suited General
Foch 5 plans better that the Germans
make headwayin exchange for the max
imum numbe. Of casualties.
The fact that Won Hindenburg Is at
tacking in great force does not yet sig
nifty certainty that lie has thrown the
full weight of great major offensive
into the Aisne drive. 1t may be his
crafty purpose to try to entice General
Foch into moving the flower of the al
lies reserves into the Atsne and then
suddenly shift the attack to the Aniiens
OF Hazebrouek-Ypres sectors
General Foch, however, proved by hi
cool judgment during Won Hindcnburg $
recent Lpres offensive that he is not
easily enticed into using up his reserves
1t probably will require far greater
pressure to be called into action. Won
Hindenburg is far more likely than Foch
to be out-generaled by the test.

Following Attacks Americans

(Uni.ed Press staff correspondent
With the Americans in Picardy,
May 27.- -(Night)- Three determined
attacks, in the nature of large scale
raids, were delivered against the Am
erican- lines this morning. The first,
before Fontaine Sous Montdidier. was
at 6:l5. The second and third were
launched simultaneously at 1870. ono
to the right of Cantigny and the other
again before Fontaine-Sous-M Moutdddier
An were repulsed with heavy German
losses.
Not only were the attacks repulsed,
but the Americans drove the boches
from their trenches in a counter at
tack, holding the captured positions
until they were ordered to withdraw
to their original line.
The first attack was preceded by a
barrage and followed the pounding Of
the American rear positions by enemy
artillery all through the night. The
boches advanced in two waves, in face
of heavy machine gun and ARTILLERY
fire. They succeeded in entering our
lines, but a counter attack was imme-
thately organized and they were driv-
en- out.
The retreating Germans wsre taking
an American prisoner with them, when
several Of his comrades eeaped from the
trenches, caught up with the boches,
killed the entire party guarding the
prisoner and brought him bash.
The second assault before Fontaine-
Sous Montdidier was as violent as the
first, but the enemy was unable to
penetrate the American lines. The
counter attack then carried the Ann
ericans into the bochcs' hne which
they held for more than an hour.
Near Cantigny, the Germans got such
a hot reception that they did not at
tempt to repeat the assault. Observers
reported heavy enemy losses, artillery,
machine gun and rifle fire cutting
down the advancing boches who left
a great number Of dead in No Man's
Land.
The three attacks netted the Ameri-

laid down.
Representative Kitchin, house demo

"There should be no attempt to fix
an exact ratio, said Kitehin. "But
a larger percentage than forty should
come from taxes. We must get these
huge profits while they are here to be

President Wilson has twice express

strongly favoring this exact proper

senate finance committee, and again
in response to. an inquiry -.om Senator
Simmons as to whether he would ac,
