WARM THE AIR

A Dutch woman returned from
visit 20 Germany, reports:
.sThe impression l gathered from
what saw and heard in Germany was
one OF real despair. The German re-
treat makes the worst possible inn
preston. especially on the Rhine. The
idea that German soil would be invio-
late 10 the last has completely disap-
peared, and on the Rhine everybody
expects sooner or later a foreign in
vasion.
"The ravages made by the Allies
aircraft are simply terrific. Nobody is
allowed TO print a word about them.
But you may be sure that when you
read that there has been some mate
rial damage done, ii means that whole
streets have been torn up, with ter
rible casualty list TO complete the pic
ture.
Germany, as / just saw it, is the
saddest country in creation. One
never sees anybody laugh"
To supplement this picture, we have
an announcement from England that
in the past month the allied airmen
have dropped more bombs and done
more damage in German cities than
German airmen have done in England
in four years.
The Allies have taken up Germany
challenge. and carried the war into
the air We are winning there al
ready, as signally as we are on land.
Conviction grows that ultimately the
real decision will come in this new
field OF warfare.
For that, all the Allies are now pre-
most of all. Though lamentably slow
I'm starting. there can be no doubt that
by next summer our contribution of
planes and fiiers will give our side
overwhelming air superiority. Our
present plans, slowly coming to fruit
ion. call for hundreds of squadrons
operating continuously.
IL is terrible. the work of those air
squadrons. 1t will become more and
more terrible until the supreme mo-
ment when Germany, who sought to
win and rule the world by terror, is
herself terrified into absolute submits
sion.
II is a dreadful but necessary task.
We must stifle. for time, the dictates
of human mercy, as the Germans
themselves have stifed it in their
wanton attacks. We shall not laugh
and shout at their suffering, as they
have laughed and shouted when their
Zeppelins and plans blew to pieces the
helpless women and children of Eng
land and France. But we shall not
pity them. There can be no pity I'M
til the German nation has learned its
lesson by paying the logical penalty
for its crimes against humanity, and
is purified by the same fierce fires it
lighted.

SUMMARY OF WAR

Striking with almost unsxamplsd
fury against the allied front near &he
point where the French and British
lines connect tlrs Germans yesterday
and last night drove u . deep wedge

Of MontdidfaHs7 ten miles west Of
Royes which the Germans took Tues
day.
The threat against Amisns in the
north seems to be we'll held by the
British along their front north Of the
somms where they have maintainsd
their line firmly at all points and
even have advanced il in places.
In the Noyon and Lassipny regions
and along the Oige 20 the east the
French are likewise preventing the
Germans from getting an opening.
The force Of their drive was thus
diverted 10 the west Of the Rove
region and the forward push there
developed probably the fiercest fight
ing Of the present battle.
Paris characterizea the engagement
as of "unheard Of fsrocity." The
French regiments, however. made the
Germans pay dearly for every bit Of
ground they covered In their despar-
ate push for an outlet, the French
finally retiring in good order 10
heights west of Montdidier. News
dispatches from the front this morn
ING reported the line in this sector to
be holding we'll.
The Germans apparently wishing
20 protect their right wing from

threat on the extreme north Of the
present front in the region east Of
Arras. London reports the bsuinninu
this morning Of q heavy bombard-
ment Of the British lines In this sec
tor. followed by the development Of
an attack.

is developing in this sector.
Repeated attacks were made by the enemy along

repulsed.
The statement follows:
'Severe fighting took place again yesterday even
ing and during the night asride the Somme and north

made by the enemy along the valley of the Some and

an attack east of Arras evidently that the Ger

a new stroke on the north.
The attacks which are developing today may mark

ARIZONA BAND IS
 GREETED WITH
 MUCH APPLAUSE

Enthusiastic applause parked the greeting given the Arizona band, that of the 15Sth Infantry when 1t appear ed in two public concerts here yes terday. The afternoon concert, given from the porch of the Phelps Dodge store was heard by a large crowd. which filled the plaza in front of the store, the sidewalks and part of the street. It had been intended to hold the night concert at the same place. but on account of the heavy rainfall, adjournment was taken to the Orph- cum theater, which was donated by John Diamos. Several hundred people who intended to attend were turned away at the door. while every seat as we'll as all available standing room was filled.
 A descriptive composition of mill tary flavor and a trombone solo by Richard Harris, formerly of South Bis bee, were features.
 Immediately following the concert, Sgt. c. F. Rayner. a Scotch Canadian who went to France with the first British contingent. spoke along patri- otic lines, painting a dark picture or the battle front and urging everyone not to be too sanguine of success, which will come only after long, hard struggle.
 The bandmen took breakfast and supper at the English Kitchen. while at noon they were entertained at the Country club by the businessmen of the Warren district.
 At the Orpheum a collection to de- fray the expenses of the band was taken up netting S219.S0. which has been exceeded at only one other place in Arizona, at Clarksdale If the night had been one on which the band could have appeared in the open air. as plan ned. there is no doubt but that the to- tai would have been much larger.

WILL MEET TODAY.

The Cochise county highway com mission meets at its close in Bisbee or Saturday for the purpose of re- ceixing bids for the grading and drainage work of the Bisbee to Doug las county highway. It is thought that there will be several bids, ac- cording to present indications, and this important worH will be started at the earliest possible moment. It is necessary that the road bed or grade stand for some time after it is constructed before any attempt car be made to pave it, which may mean that the paving will not be done for a number of months since it is best to have it go through a rainy season and it is probable that it cannot be completed in time to get the benefit of this summers rains. It that event it will be necessary to wait for fall or winter rains before the pave ment can be laid, which will allow the road bed to settle enough to make the paving a first class job in order that it will not suffer settlement and cracking. The board will also open the bids for furnishing the iron cul- Verts to be used, etc.
