SUMMARY OF WAR

Germany's hordes are CtiII held in
check. Neither in Flanders nor in
Pioardy, nor along the important Ar
ras sector, has the enemy renewed
his attacks In force, and he has not
reacted against the gain made north
Of the Sonme by the Australians, in
which more than 200 prisoners were
captured.
On both battlefrents, however, the
artillery fire has been most intense
and the German attack cannot much
longer be delayed If the enemy hopes
to take advantage Of whatever dam
age Fas been done TO the allied posi-
tions by the heavy bombardments
carried out by his guns since the
repuIse north of Mont KENNEL, more
than week ago. The greatest Ger
man artillery activity has been on
the northern half of the Flanders
front and south of the Somme to be-
low the AVre in Picardy.
American troops in their positions
south, Of the somme have been sub
iected to intense artillery fire, the
enemy using more than 5000 shells,
mostly gas, in a short period. There
have been no sipns Of a German in
fantry attack against the Americans,
who confidently await the first signs
Of reawaksned activity.
A large part of the southern end Of
the important Arras sector has been
taken over by Canadian troops, who
also are being visited by q storm Of
German shells. French generals be-
Iieve the Germans may attack Sim
ultaneousIy on the Flanders, Arras
and Amiens fronts in an effort to
push the Allies back In one mighty
blow. The hill positions, however,
are held by the Allies and their guns
dominate the Germans all along the
line.
The Austro. Hungarian blow
against the Italian front has not de-
Veloped. Rome reports only noder-
ate artillery fire along most of the
front from Switzerland TO the Adri-
alto and no infantry activity. The
Austrians, however, may be waiting
for the most favorable moment,
probably the renewal of the German
drive in France.
Today, May 7, 10 the third annTVer-
sary Of the ginkina of the Lusitania
by German submarine with the loss
of 1r275 lives.

Message From Norway
Says Rumor Was Due
To Greater Moderation
ANARCHISTS NOW
WORRY BOLSHEVIKI
Steadily Growing Hatred
in Russia For German
.. . Oppressor
(By Associated Prasa.h

London, May T.-According to
news received from Russia through
Independent Swedish and Dtuch
channels, as forwarded from Chris
tiania in a dispatch to The Times,
rumors Of the overthrow Of the
Bolshevik government which have
been current recently are unfounded.
They probably are due to the fact
that the soviet administration is now
moving in the direction OF greater
moderation.
The council Of national commits
sioners Is now being compelled to
fight the anarchists, says the dis
patch, just as Kerenslky's government
had to fight the BolshevilSi. Leon
Trotzky, minister OF war and marine,
is advocating compulsory labor, re-
sulting in friction with the anarch-
lists.
Next to the establishment of the
new army" the dispatch continues,
''the most reassuring feature is that
officials OF the Kerenslky regime are
resuTning work. This has resulted in
restoration OF order to a remarkable
QGGISGJ cSp6CIdLIy III LLl0 Ol5LEEDuI4OIA
of Soodstuffs. Many things which no
amount of speech making could
formerly induce the people to do,
are now being done under the in
spiration Of steadily growing hatred
on the part of the Russian nation for
the German oppressor."
London, May THE Ukrainian
government has sent a note to Ber-
lin ilitfnating that it will resign If
several German officials are not re-
called by Germany, says a Reuter-
dispatch from Moscow dated Satur-
day. The note specifically mentions
General Won Eichhorn, the military
commander, and Baron Mumn. Won
schwarzenstein, the German ambas-
sador.
The note referred to above prob
ably was sent by the old government
and led up to the arrest Of members
of that government by the German
military authorities.
