CONFIDENCE IN
WELLS VOICED
BY LABOR men

Representatives OF the Central La
bor Council. in supplementary re-
port on the trial and conviction Of
iIulct NJ. Wells for alleged scditious
conspiracy. today proclaimed utter
and unshaken confidence In Brother
Wells honesty. sincerity OF pur-
pose and belief that the thing fur
ihcst from his heart was interfer.
cnce with the governments prosecu-
ton OF the war. other than what
could be done thru Legislation"
Former u. s. Attorney Aliens at
u;ude was that OF a prosecutor. the
report says. and he In possessed OF
such n mentality rs TO render him n
dangerous man In public life"
Taking up legal phases. the com.
mittce declares Brother Wells at
torncy was probably worse than no
attorney at ALL
The jury. the report says. was
drawn from a list secured in an ar.
bitrary manner. susceptible Of great
abuse"
In conclusion the report. in part
says:
Acts charged against Wells as
crimes were the same kind OF acts
and the same kind OF work as he
and his co.workers have regularly
done for years: that while. at this
time. It might be construed as a
violation OF law, IL certainly could
not have been at that time. The
broadest interprrfation could go no
farther than to assume that the cir
cular was an attempt to influence
legislation. and the resolution Intro
duced by Wells in the Central Labor
council an attempt TO secure the
modification of "a law already passed
and satisfactory. except as 20 the
features a remedy OF which was be-
ing attempted.
Inability on the part of many rep
resentauYcs of government to realize
the great responsibility upon them
to administer justice In just such
ways as shall result In the most ef.
fcctive use OF the forces OF the gov.
eminent for the successful prosecu.
ton of n war, which is responsible
for the temporary autocratic power
they possess. Inability to distinguish
between self glorification and sue
cessful prosecution OF the war. In.
ability TO use. instead OF abuse, auto.
cratic power"

GERMAN PAPER
SAYS ALLIES
NOT STOPPED
Many Of the Newspapers
However, Try to Encour-
age People.

Amsterdam, Aug 14.-while Tues
lays Berlin newspapers regard the
Anglo French main thrust as parried
Ind at all events stopped by the ex
; haustion of the attacking troops, the
journals in the Rhine country discuss
"Foch and Haig probably will con-
hnue attacking on the Somme but
shey will never achieve more than
pyrrhic victories which will assist in
the attrition of their own forces" says
Baron Won der Osten. the military
critic of the Rhenische Westfalische
Eeitung, Of Essen.
Elsewhere the newspapers deem it
necessary editorially to brace up the
provinces which seem to be badly
shaken. The Cologne Volks Zeitung
appears to interpret popular appre-
tensions when it speaks of another
impending ruthless Anglo-French at
tempt to break through the German
northwestern 'front.'" and says that
Germany follows the terrible struggle
with bated breath. In the next column
it inveighs against defeatism, which is
.dorf and elsewhere, even in Essen
where people may be heard grumb-
ling: Another defeat for us-we shall
lose the war. We have nothing to eat,
no clothes, no shoes, we shall starve
and be utterly ruined.'"
AS a cure for this state Of mind the
Volks Zeitung administers an anti
dote in the shape of a raging article
about the enemy wanting to murder,
rob and enslave German men, women
and children"
The Weser Zeitung, Of Bremen, with
ill-concealed pessimism, regretfdlly
admits in Tuesdays issue that the
once derided American army is giving
much more trouble than was antici-
pated, while the Frankfort Gazette
pathetically pleads with the official
press bureau to tell the whole truth
''as far as possible"

days of the present offensive five
members of a well-known Canadian
battalion captured more than 100
Germans. In a dense fog the party
became lost and in cropping their way
about came suddenly upon fully

in the party gave the order to fire
This show of force brought more than

Tuesdays Fighting Puts
French More Than
Mile Ahead.

Paris. Aug. 14.-1n comparison
with the quick advance of the first
four days the battle in Picardy now
may seem to be stagnant, but never
theless the French have pushed near
er to the Chaulnes-Roye-Lass
clinging desperately. 1t took the
Allies. a fortnight to get the Ger
mans from the Marne to the Vesle.
The ground between the Avre and
the Disc is much more difficult than
north Of the Marne. being laby-
rinth of small wooded hills in and
out of which the troops have to
reducing each summit separately and
successfully. 1t is no easy task be-
/cause the enemy laid out his posi-
tions long ago SO he is able to defend
them with groups Of picked machine
gunners who have orders-which
they invariably obey to the letter
to resist until killed: Consequently
every inch of ground requires not
only great determination in over
coming, but experienced skill.

bronze. close to Attiche and Carnloy
farms which are two big machine
gun nests.
The French LEI, left advancing GO. on
ance north of st. Claude farm and
north Of Mareuil-Lamotte. However.
they succeeded in lighting their way
