Gen. Haig's Reports show that Enemy Offensive is Steadily Weakening
 -Germany's Statement

LONDON, March 29. - General Haig's report received this morning shows that the enemy assaults are gradually weakening in ferocity and that the much-vaunted German offen- sive is a thing of the past. Broken and shattered divisions have been amalgamated with other divisions and hurled against the British lines, only to be rolled back with additional slaughter. Gen. Haig says that the enemy's many attacks which were started with great determination throughout Thursday only gained our outpost lines after severe hand to hand fighting. His reserves sent for ward against our battle positions were thrown back everywhere with great losses Our machine guns, artillery and rifles did great execution in his ranks.

YOUR COUNTRIES CALL

You would give your life for your country. You would scorn an Ameri- can. whose patriotism ended with way ing flags, cheering the troops and standing up when the band plays. You want to serve your country. Are you willing to do what your government asks. Are you willing to follow direc- tions? Are you so comfortably fixed that you can afford to eat what you please? An. but you can't afford to eat what your country needs. Follow directions. Have you servants who cant be made to understand? It is your chore to see that they do.
 Follow directions. If Germany wins you will be obeying orders given by someone you will not care to obey. Your judgment asks you to prove that free people can follow directions.
