The success of the Germans along the
Aisne must be regarded as the price
the allies are paying for the security
of the channel coast.
1t is also an acknowledgement by
Won Hindenburg that he cannot disre-
gard the. clamorous cries Of the Germans
to be fed with more tales of victory,
although sound military policy is
against the sacrifices such futile sue
cesses require. The strategic situation,
in fact, seems to be getting out of Won
Hindenburg's reach and is becoming
political in its purposes. This is always
a bad sign and not infrequently is the
forerunner of disintegration.
The Germans have succeeded by the
present operations in cutting the rail
way between scissors and Rheims. This
is an important line of communication
serving the southern front Of the allies
in France. 1t has been cut, however,
at only one point, Fismes. The sectors
III the safety zone. The capture of the
environs of Fismes is far from repre-
sentlng major success. 1t may set the
Berlin crowds cheering, but the reaction
will be all the more dangerous when
Berlin has had time to realize in sober
silence how meaningless has been the
new sacrifice of German manhood.

Visit American Prisoners

Washington, May pa reply was
received yesterday by the state de-
partmcnt from the Spanish embassy
at Berlin to- a request for information
in regard to the methods of ascertain
ing the information as to treatment
of American prisoners of war. The
reply said that Spanish delegates are
free to visit the camps, but that the
German minister of war has stipulated
that when no notice is given of the
visit in advance witnesses must be
present at the interviews with prison
ers. When notice is given, however,
there will be no interference by the
military authorities.

The big Jewel production comes to
this city among the first sent to the
cities west of the Rocky Mountains,
thanks to the promptness and enter
prise of Manager Bligh in booking it
to his Liberty thcater almost as soon
as possible after it reached the Port
land exchange.
In this seven reel super-production,
with Rupert Julian playing in the role
Of the kaiser, audiences will see the
private life and character of the auto
crat, with all his mad vanities and am
billions and cruel selfishness laid mer'
cilessly bare.
They will see in a terrific review,
the massacre and sack of Louvain and
they will see German ruthlessness at
work in Belgium, even as it hopes
same day to be at work in America.
They win see the decoration of the
kaiser placed on Captain Won Nieglc
commander of the U-boat that sunk
the Lusitania, and will see how the
captain went mad with remorse over
the crime he was ordered to commit
by Europe s "mad man with wither-
ed soul.' 8a
They will see the kaiser smashed in
the jaw by the captain of his guard
whom he insulted. 7
They will see. him swagger in gor-
geous uniforms, and hear his boasts
and threats in the historic scene with
Ambassador Gerard.
They will see him fall, and will see
the prediction of the end of the war
and the end of the kaiser are histor-
ically accurate, and the words of the
kaiser in the play are correct QUOTA
tions of his actual utterances.

gagged a minimum of twenty five di-
visions, before which the French and
British in the front lines are putting
up dOgged resistance, in order to
permit reserves to intervene and turn
the tide.
The German attack has extended
the offensive front from Rheims to the
Flanders mountains, until now it con-
statutes battle area 300 kilometers
(lS6.3 miles) across.
There is every indication that the
present attack is an integral part of
the original German offensive plan. 1t
is positively known that during the
winter Ludendorff prepared two great
attacks, one against Amiens and the
other against Rheims. He concentrat-
ed the necessary reserves hundred
kilometers (62.l miles) behind the
lines at central point from where
they could be sent at moment s no
tice 70 either point.
Ludendorff left the choice of which
sector he would attack first until the
last moment for the purpose of con
L
on Amiens. This being checked, he still
had the Rheims attack TO fall back ON.
This is now being carried out in pre-
eisely the same manner as the drive
against Amiens. The enemy troops are
said to have been trained for either
attack.
The reserves concentrated 100 kilo-
- r1tcb bnd
, to the front Sunday night in forced
marches. Following brief but unusu-
ally intense bombardment Monday
morning. including gas, picked and
specialized assaulting troops, including
the Fourth and Fifth divisions of
Prussians, which led the Amiens at
tack, leaped to the assault.
The British and French retired in
perfect order without permitting a
single break in their lines, and intlict-
ing the heaviest losses on the enemy.
If the present attack is merely Sec
ondary, its principal objective Is the
tieing up of the French reserves to
prevent their intervention in the final
great offensive to the northward.
The German press recently charged
that the German high command made
mistake in not tieing up the French
reserves before the Amiens attack.
The Germans efforts ito conceal
preparations for the Aisne attack
were greater than ever before. Ger
man prisoners declare they were
brought up under the impression that
they were to relieve troops in the first
line and were informed that the Of
fensiye was to be renewed there just
few hours before the attack actually
began. Prisoners taken several days
before the attack knew nothing about
the preparations On the contrary, the
French feared an attack in this very
region.

ed to win snowy success that might
be dished up in manner to quiet, for
the moment, the threatening murmurs
of the people of the central empires.
Thert is no doubt that the allied
front along the Aisne has been weakly
held, General Foch was perfectly sound
in his judgment in weakening it. He
has had to do this in order to insure
the safety of the channel ports, which
is the paramount consideration. The
Germans choose the Aisne for their
camouflage victory undoubtedly because
it was the least strongly Held part of
the front within range of the Teutonic
reserves in western France.
