GERMAN ADVANCE ON
AM|ENS MENACES THE
SAFETY OF THEIR Line

on THE FRENCH FRONT IN
FRANCE. Thursday. April 25.-By the
Associated Press.--The more they ad'
vance along the road toward Anlens
! the more Rrilous becomes the salient
/ the Germans are forming in the
Somme region. especially in view OF
! The fact that the allied reserves arc
/ virtually. intact and the allied armies
are now commanded by single chief.
The present moment is less favor
able to the German plans than when
; they started their advance on March
~. Then a weak point existed be-
tween the French and British armies.
Now there is no sensitive part Of the
line since the unified command has
given the opportunity to make the
most practical use of all the allied
troops.
! An all night battle in which tho
; Germans, after gaining powerful col
! umns, hurled Them up on Hangard-En-
| Santerre, resulted in the village
changing hands several times.
! Individual combat with bayonets,
from house 10 house, were of frequent
occurrence Fire burst out in all di-
rcctions until the village is now a
mere heap OF smoking ruins which the
Germans held this morning with diff
fculty, for the French gave Soem no
liberty of movement and their repeated
efforts 10 advance further were
stopped as soon a. they began.
Meanwhile the artillery extending
he radius Of its fire, bombarded
heavily Rallies. Castel and Senecat
wood. all situated on the same plateau
10 the southwest Of Hangard, which
elevation bars the route to Amies. The
enemy launched several assaults upon
Hallles, and even succeeded in reach
ing the other slopes Of Hill 80. just
to the south of this village, but the
French artillery and machine guns put
an end 10 his progress here.
At the same time the Germans were
devoting great attention further north
10 the British sector around .Cachy.
where the fighting was very severe.
The army Of General Won der Mar
WITT, which contains division OF the
famous Prussian guards, met the most
determined resistance from the French
whenever they came into contact.
The Germans gave more marked
signs of becoming I disastrous attempt
in trying 10 force a way to hntcns
whatever the cost This cost. hitherto
has been very high. for neither the
French nor the British are ceding an
inch OF ground without taking the
heaviest Toll from the German attack
ing forces. Several additional German
divisions have heen terribly tried since
The offensive was again resumed this
week. and the enemy possesses only
a limited number more with which to
continue his overwhelming rushes.
From March 81 until today the Ger
mans have employed approximately
100 divisions, Of which 30 have been
Withdrawn 10 refill the ranks and have
been sent into The battle for the sec
ond time. making the total Of divisions
in action l60.
About 20 other divisions have not
yet been engaged in the battle. but
OF these. a considerable proportion are
untitled TO do more than hold quiet
sectors. The forward movement must.
therefore, be carried through very
quickly. as Otherwise the German
staff will find itself without further

U. S. TO RUSH DRAFT PROGRAM
100000 Men to Be Called Sooner Than
Expected to Meet the Emergency
in France.

Washington, April 4.-Measures to
speed up the draft program are in
contemplation and an official an
nouncement is expected soon.
The intention is to meet the emer-
gency in France. For that reason the
100000 to be called this year will be
called more rapidly than was previous
ly planned.
Officials do not regard it as posi-
BILE that more men will be sent abroad
this year than the department already
has arranged to summon, even with
additional British shipping made avail
able as troop transports. There are
now under arms here and in Europe
more than 100000 American soldiers.
The number will have been raised to
about 100000 by the end of the
year.

turbance the new regime entered at
midnight Tuesday and Wednesday
found most of the states $500 saloons
and 35 breweries dismantling their es-
adjustments and preparing for other
businesses. Many will continue to oc-
cupy their quarters at least until de-
cision is handed down in the supreme
court in two cases argued Tuesday to
test the conStitutionality of the prohi-
bition law. 1t is believed by leaders
of both vets and drys that it will be
several days before the status of the
law will be known. One of the cases
argued comes from Vanderburg coun-
ty and the other is an appeal of Lake
county liquor intrests.
