BRITISH KILL
UNTIL THEY TIRE
SLAUGHTER GREAT MASSES
OF ONCOMING ENEMY
TROOPS

London, March 3.-Therc is rea-
son to believe fifty German divisions
are flowing into the struggle, Reu-
ter's correspondent wires, and prob
ably half as many more are in close
reserve. Under the tremendous on
slaught, the British troops are fall
ing black very slowly and in excel
lent order. At many places they are
Withdrawing voluntarily so as to
maintain an unbroken front.
The most intense fighting appears
to have been around RoiSel and
Trincourt. The slaughter in the en-
emy ranks was appalling.
Twelve times every available gun
in the area was concentrated on sol
id massed bodies OF enemy troops,
while the British airmen grew weary
with emptying their machine gun
drums an dropping their bombs into
the dense gray crowds Of troops and
returning for more ammunition.
The British, gallantly fighting, are
still presenting a solid front to the
Gercely attacking Germans, although
the defensive troops have withdrawn
their lines in certain places for STRAIT
tegic reasons.
Throughout the night the battle
front extended southwark and it was
reported this morning that the
French army was now engaged.

BRITISH ARE OPTIMISTIC.
Now Down Enemy as He Advances
in Masses.
(By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSS.)
British Army Headquarters in
France, Friday, March 22.-British
troops between the Scarpe and the
Oise have fallen back in places, but
the British generals had foreseen
this eventually and made prepara-
tions accordingly. In the face OF a
great attack it is not only impos-
sible, but quite unsound to attempt
to hold the front line trenches ev-
erywhere. Good defensive tactics
usually aim at organizing resistandc
so that the further the enemy adj
yances, the stronger will be the op-
position he meets.
Taking the situation as a whole,
the British are well satisfied with
the results OF the first stage of the

HAIL STORM WREAKS
HAVOC IN ARKANSAS

, Texarkana, Ark, March 23.-Hail
stones lay on the ground four inches
deep in some parts of Miller County,
Arkansas, four miles from here, fol-
lowing a severe storm yesterday and
last night. Reports here today say
that fruit trees were almost entirely
stripped of young fruit and truck
gardens were badly damaged. A
strong wind accompanied the hail
and a farm house in the southern
part of the county was blown over
and demolished.

CONGRESS WATCHES
BATTLE RESULTS

Washington, March 25-Although
the great battle was not mentioned
on the floors of congress in the
days debates, every member was
thinking of it, and its effect on the
fate of the civilization OF the world.
Senators without as much as a
record vote, during consideration OF
some army bills, rejected proposal
by Senator Hardwick to excuse
drafted men from liability to mill
tary duty if they have passed 81
without entering the national army.

GOVERNMENT LOOKS
TO OKLAHOMA FOR
MORE CRUDE OIL

Washington, March 25.-Pooling
of fuel oil supplies in the West as
we'll as the East is planned by the
oil division of the fuel administra-
tion to obtain equitable distribution
among essential consumers.
Drilling of new wells, particularly
on the Indian lands of Oklahoma,
for which new leases recently have
been issued, is expected to over
come in large measure the deple-
tion of oil reserve storcks.
Reserves still amount to 10000
00O barrels, and Mr.. Requa empha-
sized today that there is no danger
OF a shortage. Orders will be issued
providing for the use of oil as near
to the source as possible in order to
lessen the traffic problem.
Wichita Falls, Texas, March 23-
The posted price for crude oil in
Texas advanced on March 20 from
50 to $2.25 per barrel. This is the
biggest advance ever made by the
pipe line companies in this section.
