ton Of Occupying American
Positions Permanently.

With the American Army in France.
Twelve hundred German storm
troops, the largest number ever con-
centrats3 against the American troops
for an offensive operation, were hurled
against the American positions on a
one-mile front west of Renneres for
est, northwest of Toul, after terrific
bombardment of gas and high explo-
sive shells.
The enemy succeeded in penetrating
the front line trenches and taking the
village of Seicheprey, but after furi'
GUS hand-to-hand fighting the Ameri'
can troops recaptured the village.
German airplanes, flying at low al
titude, attempted to disorganize the
American fighting men, but two enc
my aviators were brought down and
the others driven off.
The attacking troops carried rations
and entrenching tools, indicating that
they intended to occupy the American
positions for long period. A heavy
haze overhung the section when the
attack began, but later there was
brilliant sunshine. The American ar
tillerymen did valiant work, the mel
on many of the batteries wearing gas
masks.
The enemy's casualties are believed
to have been the heaviest sustained
by them thus far in any operation
| against American troops. Numbers Of
| German dead are lying in No Mans
Land in front of the American
trenches.
The German airmen poured machine
gun fire into the American troops, bu
the anti-aircraft batteries came int
play and American airmen took the
air, bringing down two of the enemy
planes and dispensing the others. AL
the American airmen returned safely
The ambulances tore over the shell
torn roads and approached to within
q short distance of the front line
Numbers of men in the rear positions
begged their commanders to be sen
up to assist the infantrymen bearin,
the brunt of the attack. The men o
all services were eager for an oppor
tunity to fight the enemy in the open
The resistance offered by thu
American troops was surprise to th'
enemy, who expected to break through
with little difficulty.

During the Spanish-American war
a group of physicians Of this country
signed this statement:
att is not only In the state of drunk
enness that men step into danger Of in
curing venereal diseases, but in the
state of exhilaration and weakened
self-control which follows the use of
comparatively small amount Of alco-
holic liquors. This impairment of self
control not only follows the use of
the stronger liquors, but may also fol-
low the use of beer"

NATIONWIDE PROHIBITION LOCI.

rSHLs
War efficiency and the liquor traffic
have been treated In all belligerent
countries as irreconcilable enemies.
Every military administrator recog-
nizes this. Congress recognized 1t
when 1t inserted In the selective con-
scription law provision forbidding the
sale of alcoholic liquors to soldiers
and sailors. And when congress went
that far 1t admitted the logic Of at
tempting to check or abolish the use
Of intoxicating liquors in every other
field of war effort--in the industrial
sphere as well as in the fighting zones
and the training camps.-New York

concerning the presence of ground
glass In foodstuffs has led the COM

Into the authenticity of these reports.
1t has been advised by the food adj
ministration that thorough investiga-
tons, Of more than 200 of the cases
has disclosed only one instance in
which ground glass was found in the
foodstuffs inspected.

occurred at Fort Smith, Ark. A baker
In that town had had trouble with his
employees. one Of whom, desiring to
destroy his employers business, had
filed with glass a loaf of bread which
was to be delivered to an orphanage.
When the bread was served to the in
