contracts for work, and in the distribution Of labor.
Among the objects toward which the energies Of the
board will be directed are:
First, the performance of the war work the govern
ment must have done. That is the prime aim and OBJ
ject of the whole plan. The government needs supplies,
and it will be the business Of the board to see that it gets
them.
Second, to get this work done by the use of existing
facilities, as far as possible, SO that precious labor may
not be wasted in the needless construction of new plants
Third, to bring about such a distribution of LABOR
that there will be no idle men, and, if possible, no work
awaiting labor which cannot be obtained.
Fourth, to bring about the handling Of this work in
the manner which will interfere least with. the industrial
situation in the various communities. .

movements and finally to his expul-

His disclosures. which have created
sensations in entente capitals, have
been regarded in many quarters as
faithful interpretations of events
which contributed to the outbreak, Of

WAR SUMMARY

Allied defensive measures have
broken the force OF the German Of.

Ailette. and the enemy is now max
ing only strong local attacks. AL.
though recording successful en-
gagements, its latest reports to
Berlin for the first time since MAY
q does not claim any new ad-
vances.
Foiled by the French in their Ell
forts to overcome the barrier OF
the Retz forest, east of Villers- Cot
terets, by frontal attacks, the Ger
mans attempted to outilank the po-
sition by assaults north and south
of it. After slight gains the French
stopped them on both flanks.
American troops took part in the
lighting around Chateau-Thierry,
where the western wing OF the bat
tie front Joins the Marne.
Between Oise and Marne.
Between the Disc and The Marine
the fighting continues heavier than
elsewhere on the new salient.
North of Moluin-Sou T Touvk,
northwest of Scissors, the French
have improved their positions,
gaining some hotly contested ter
rain from the Germans.
Enemy attacks against the Retz
forest, although strong, are being
localized.
Near Long Pont the Germans
were able to penetrate the forest
but French counter attacks threw
them out again. If they follow the
tactics employed in the Picardy and
Flanders battle, the Germans will
probably make very strong efforts
to improve locally important posi-
sitlons before they finally give up
their efforts to advance. The en-
emy artillery fire is very heavy from
north OF the Aisne to the Ourcq,
on the western wing, and around
Rheims on the east, which still holds
)ut.
Americans in Four Sectors.
In addition to the present battle,
American troops are actively en-
gagged on four sectors and prepar-
ng to enter the front line on

SCHOONER LANDS
156 ASSE NGERS
FROM ''CAROL|NA"
TAKEN TO NEW YORK,
WHERE THEY ARE RE-
CEIVE DBY RED CROSS.
WERE FOUND YESTERDAY
Captain and ga of the Crew Also
Included in This Group of Sur
vivors-Submarine Which Sank
the Carolina Was Painted Sea
Green.

New York, June 5.--A schooner
carrying Captain Barbour and l5t
passengers and % of tn ecrew OF
the steamship Carolina of the New
York and Porto Rico line, which
was sunk by a German submarine
last Sunday night, arrived here
early today.
The schooner picked up the sur
vivors off Barnegat, N. j., at 5
o'clock yesterday afternoon. Among
those brought here are ten United
States army officers, graduates OF
the second officers training camp
at San Juan, Porto Rico.
The survivors were met at the
dock by detachment of Red Cross
workers and were driven in ambu-
lances and automobiles to hotels
and boarding houses.
Sub" Was Green.
It was learned today that the sub
marine which sank the Carolina
was painted sea green, almost the
color of the ocean. She was said
to have vanished "in no time" after
she made sure that the Carolina
would sink. This was the statement
both, of Samuel Johnson and J. r.
Connolly, two survivors.
She was the biggest submarine
| ever saw and I've seen a lot OF
them" Johnson declared. "She
must have been a supersubmarine.
because she was at least $50 feet
long.
She was a grayish green in col
or, Connolly said. You could
hardly tell her fromthe water. She
fired six shots at us. Her crew was
a large one, too. She must have
had between 40 and so men aboard.
They were dressed in olive drab in
stead Of blue"
Women in Evening Dress.
The women passengers were in
evening gowns and throughout the
storm suffered intensely from ex-
posure. A large bundle containing
A number OF heavy jumper floated
up to the boat Monday afternoon.
The women were dressed in these
when they arrived on the beach
Yesterday. The submarine bore no
marks Of Identification as far as the
survivors could see and the major
ty OF them say they had a good
view on both sides as she circled
around the Carolina.
Mrs. c. II. Westbrook of New
\ ork, another survivor, praised the
officers and crew of the Carolina.
Women Were Brave.
After abandoning the sinking ship
survivors reaching here said, some
N lifeboat began whistling THE
Star-Spanglei Banner" and it was
almost instantly taken up by those
n the other boats-the mep Join
ng in the whistling and many of
he women singing the words of
he national anthem.
Veteran mariners who superin-
ended the alloting OF lifeboats to
hose on the Carolina declared the
