By Associated Press

The Germans in the center of their new attack on the front between Montdidicr and Noyon have gained additional ground against the French, but on both the right and left wings they are being held. In violent successive attacks Monday they captured the villages of Mery, Relloy and St. Mature and also pressed forward and gained a footing in the village of Marqueglise, the last named place representing the deepest point of penetration since the offensive began between five and six miles.
 The French are still exacting a heavy toll in lives from the Germans as they deliver their attacks in waves, and are giving ground only when forced to do so under superiority of numbers. No where has the enemy been able to pierce the front, which has been bent back in perfect order whenever the necessity arose.
 The battle is described by correspond ents as one of the most furious that has been fought since the war began, with the enemy unusually reckless in wasting life to gain his objectives.
 CLAIM 5000 PRISONERS
 The latest official communication from the German war office says additional ground has been gained by the Germans southwest of Noyon against newly brought up French endorsements and that the Germans have taken about 5000 prisoners and some guns.

 The center about Ressons-Sur- Matz, where the Germans made their most ob- stinate effort and formed pocket tend Ing southeastward, is the only part of the line against which the Germans have been able to report a real gain. Their intention is to try to reach the banks of the Disc and threaten the allied salient which extends to the vicinity of Noyon.
 The Germans knew when they opened the attack that their task would be diffi- cult. Therefore they sent into the fray only chosen divisions, which had been specially trained for the assault 1t is estimated that they engaged approxi- mately twenty divisions on the front line for the first shock, while behind these, ready to take the place of the ex- hausted divisions, there probably were a similar number, perhaps even greater.

CANNOT SEND MONEY
OUT OF ITALY FREELY
Those Who Wish to Do So Must Prove
Absolutely the Necessity for
Such Action.

Rome, May NO money can now be
sent out of Italy by means of bank
drafts unless the sender can prove the
absolute necessity for so doing as by
the presenting of bills to be paid This
is particularly true Of large sums Of
money. This is one of the measures tax
en- by the government TO stabilize ex-
change and prevent speculation in Italian
money. Exchange rates are also fixed by
law weekly, to prevent artificial fiuctua
tions.
According to Oscar T. Crosby. who was
recently here representing the United
States treasury department in connec-
ton with efforts to assist Italy's finances,
the real difficulty of not only Italy but
also England and France is that they
are in need of American money to sta
bilize their exchange. what they need
is dollars" he said
BY the plan of Minister of the Treas
ury Nitti, so far as concerns the Ameri-
cans here who desire to send money
home for any reason, or to any foreign
country, they must fill out in duplicate
blank form provided by the bank selling
them drafts and on this blank they must
give the name of the person to whom
money is sent, with the exact reason.
Persons travelling may buy the money
of the country to which they are des-
tined on presentation, of passports or
other papers.
