WAR NEWS SUMMARY
(Continued from Page One)

ton of sending Austrian reinforce ments to the western side or convey ing food and military supplies to the men already on the border of the LIains has become a critical one.
 Hoping to alleviate the situation. the Austrians again have delivered attacks on the Montello plateau, the keystone to the plains, but like pre- vious thrusts, they met with repulse. Between the Treviso railroad and the Benson loop the Italians have pressed back the enemy toward the Piave. while at Iosson, near the Fossetta canal, enemy attacks were repulsed Farther down the stream, short dis tance from where it empties into the Adriatic sea, the Italians in daring assault north of Cortellazzo pierced the enemy front, took 200 men pris- oner and firmly held their groun against a counter attack.
 AIR FIGHTING
 In the violent air fighting in progress all along the front American aviators have joined the allied ,airmen and are performing daring feats. Among the en- terprises carried out by them has been the bombing of pontoon bridges thrown by the enemy across the Pave
 Empty stomachs continue to play an
 
 Hungarian armies and the people inside the dual monarchy. Prisoners taken by the Italians are noticeably ill fed. and troublous times prevail in cities and towns in the empire and kingdom be- cause of lack of food. The people. even officials, are declared to be at their wits ends in endeavors to alleviate the situa- tion. The Hungarian premier is said to have told Parliament that the Kingdom has only one-fourth the food necessary to maintain the people in health, and that it would be hard to hold out until the new harvest.
 FRENCH FRONT
 Except for the Italian theatre, little fighting is in progress Southwest of Soissons and a little farther south near Hautvasnes the French in more of their daily attack have bettered their posi- tions and taken prisoners from the Ger mans In the regions of Arras and AL bert the British likewise have made gains and also repulsed German attacks near Merris. on the Flanders front
 The German official communication records the repulse of an American at tack northwest of Chateau Thierry, in the Marne region, and asserts that the Americans suffered heavy losses This probably refers to the fighting of Thurs day in tho Belleau wood, where the Americans advanced their lines more than half mile after the enemy had re- fused to accept the gage of battle.

With the American Army in France, June 21.-Just why the formidable German 2Sth division was placed in front of the American troops north west of Chateau Thierry and also why q prize regiment of that division now is in the front line, is shown by a letter taken from a prisoner. The let ter was written June 10 by Grenadfer Landauer of the 10th grenadiers regi- ment, to his relatives in Germany. 1t is Landauer, himself, who is the pris- oner and his letter is eloquent testi- mony as to the impression that the Americans have made on the German Emperor's best troops. The letter reads;
 As far as my health is concerned, l am faring ,welI-and that is the most important thing. We are again in the front line because the American division opposite us has achieved some success and we, as a model division, are to make good this loss
 Al the present moment we are ly- we have made dugouts and furnished them with all sorts of stuff from ] nearby inn. Of course, we are getting all sorts of knocks from the enemy ar tillery which, especially at night, shoots at us accurately.
 Up to now everything has gone pretty well, but we hope to be re- lieved soon and get some lest If one has been for more than IA days in this mix-up, one has more than suf- ficient
 For the present I am still in good spirits and even if one does lose ones head at times one must pull ones self together again. Better times will come and then all the thousand sorrows that now oppress us will be forgotten. I have heard with joy that no harm came to you through the acts of enemy av- iators"
 Letters taken from other prisoners, which had been written to them " German civilians, said the writers were safe, notwithstanding the air raids made by allied aviators One letter mentioned the recent raid on Karls- ruhe and after describing the result in killed and wounded and the property damage, said:
 These rascals waited until Corpus Christi day had passed

INCREASE OF 45
 CENTS GROSS TON FOR IRON ORES
This Is Agreed on By War Industries Board and Com mittee of Steel
 Men

Washington, June 21.-An increase of 4j cents gross ton for iron ore to meet wage and freight rate advances was agreed upon late today by the war industries board, iron ore producers and representatives of the American iron and steel institute The new price is effec- tive July l, subject to approval py Pres iGent Wilson.
 There will be no increase in the price of steel, Chairman Brookings, of the price fixing committee of the war industries board, said at the conclusion of the con ference. MT Brookings also said the steel men had asked for no insurance over the present prices, which expires June B. and which will be continued
 The government, it was said after the meeting, while recognizing the justice of the ore producers claim that they would have to get more for their product to stimulate production and because of in- creased freight tariffs and labor prob lens, did not wish to raise the price of ore to a point where increases on all forms of steel would be made necessary.
