Local Boards lnstrueted


 The COchise county local board has received from Adjutant General Harris instructions to make preparations for the registration of all men b5tW cen the ages of IS and 45 years ch Sep tember ,. In connection with this or der the following article from the Ari- zona Republican (PhOeniX) will pro- vide enlightenment
 It says:
 No time is to be lost by the provost marshal general in putting into opera ton the selective draft law as it will be amended by the extension of the age limit in both directions. By the time the amendment has been effected the machinery will be set up to begin at once carrying it into effect The following telegraphic instructions were received by Adjutant General Harris and sent out by him to all local boards in the state.
 It is confidently anticipated that legislation extending the present draft ages will early be enacted by con gress. At this time it cannot be stated with exactness what ages will be sub ject to draft but it is sate to assume that a very large number of men will be required to register and that the date of registration will be early in September.
 The registration of such large num- bers requires detailed and extensive preparation and there will not be sui ficient time for such preparation after the passage of the legislation by con gress Instructions outlining procedure will be at once forwarded by mail pending receipt thereof you are m structed to make preliminary arrange ments at once in order that registra- ton may take place soon after the passage of the necessary legislation The machinery for registration must be perfected and ready to be put into immediate operation when the Presi- dents proclamation can be published
 The adjutant general in each state, acting under the direction of the gov ernOr, will be the central administra- | tive authority of the registration sys- tenn within the state.
 Under Local Boards The local boards will have immedl- ate direction and supervision of the registration within their respective 1 jurisdictions. The actual registration  will be made in the customary voting precincts in the jurisdiction of each ] local board
 Each local board should be request ed aI once to appoint a registrar or i registrars for each precinct within it's | jurisdiction. Where there is more 1 than one registrar in a precinct, one will be appointed as chief registrar. | Registrars should be appointed for each probable eighty registrants in q precinct This win require one and one-third times as many registrars as were required in June. 1917. Regis | trars should be competent to do the clerical work. citizens of the United States. and reside within the jurisdic- tion of the local board by which they are appointed. and should be persons who have lived in the jurisdiction long enough to be well acquainted with the

 The English are that sort, too. They have their sporting expressions and tradi- tions and have lived up to them for hun dreds of years, and that's one of the req sons for England's greatness on sea and land. Cool, sarcastic, apparently reckless, but under the light words and the gay scornful lips lie the craft and resource and resolution of superior race.

YANKs ADVANCE SLIGHTLY

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON THE NESLE, Aug. s tBy the AssOci- ated Press) Under almost incessant shel fire the Americans struggled fo-- ward today to slightly better posi- tions north of the Vesle. French di- visions east and west did their part.
 The day was not marked by Orsa- nized attacks but was punctuated by sharp minor engagements. Along the entire front there was evident a de- termination to stabilize the lines. Whether the battle that began July IS has virtually ended or whether the Ger mans will withdraw beyond the Aisne are unanswered questions.
 To the Americans already north of the river there was added consider able strength. The line tonight is well liked along the ROuen Rheims road from near Basoches, which still Is in the hands of the Germans. to a point weh cast of Fismes. The Americans hold Fismes apparently securely, but the village of North Fishes proved difficult and at midday was subjected to a terrific smelling by the Amcri- can artillery with the intention of making it untenable. With that small point once cleared. the lme would run uninterrupteily toward the east
 The Germans have had strong ma chine gun positions ;n Fismes and to the north and east. It was the Opposi- tiOn offered by them that resulted m the American deterE .Iation net to attempt occupation 5y the infantry. but to destroy the enemy with artil- lery.
 On the hills beyond the line the Ger man light artillery have been placed. whie the heavy guns are located be- yOnd the Aisne. and guns Of medium calibre are northwest of Perles, com manding the region about BasOches. Since the fight began on the Vesle these guns have steadily pounded the American line but the American artil- lery has been equally energetic. Com paratively little damage has been done by the German guns. while the silenc- ing of enemy gun fire from his lighter arti lery positions is an evidence of the accuracy of the American artillery.
 lt is still generally believed that the Germans are making nothing more than pretense of holding their lines here. Testimony of prisoners today continues to indicate that positions be- yond the Aisne have been prepared ty the Germans and that the present action is tO gain time and inflict as much loss as possible.

 meat supplies of the United States and allies, the commission said:
 "The Armour, Swift. Morris and Vii son interests have entered into a combination with certain foreign cor pOratiOns by which export shipments of beef, mutton and other meats from the principal South American meat producing countries are appOrtiOned among the several companies on the basis of agreed percentages. In con junction with this conspiracy meetings are held for the purpose of securing the maintenance of the agreement anl making such readjustments as from time to time may be desirable. inc agreements restrict South American shipments to European countries and the United States.
 Since the meat supplies of North and South America constitute practi- cally the only sources from which the United States and her allies can sat isfy their needs for their armies, navies and civil populations. these two agreements constitute a conspiracy on the part Of the Big Five. in cOnjunc- ton with certain foreign. corporations. to monopolize an essential of the food of the United States. England, France and Italy"

For the first time since the at first bril- liantly successful and latterly i'll fated Cam brai offensive last fall, the British have struck in force at the German lines. On twenty mile front directly east of Amiens at the extreme tip of the German salient and extending southward towards the Soissons sector, the British pushed forward They have gained from four to seven miles along the front, good gain, but nothing spectacular. The Germans will fight hard for every foot of ground here. But if Haigs men persist and make any real progress to- day they will have the Germans in a bad way, for they must defend their Vesle line And they will not know for certain at which point Foch intends to strike with full strength That's the advantage of an OFFENSIVE! The British blow is most significant Even moderate gain, if it is held, means fine victory, for it emphasizes the full return of the offensive to. the allies.

It is now declared that the allies took 10000 prisoners in the last drive, 1000 cannon and over 100000 shells, besides countless tons of other war booty and stores. It is also alleged upon reliable auth ority that the German losses since the crown prince lunged forward on the Marne July 5 are from 300,000 to 350,000 men, counting prisoners, wounded and missing The allied losses in this struggle have not been estimated or announced but are cer- tainly much less.

The announcement of the Phelps Dodge corporation in this issue of The Review to help all employees in this district build or own their own homes upon payments equal to rent Is an offer probably unpar- alleled in its generosity in American indus trial affairs, at least upon such a scale as this may well turn out to be, for several thousand men and women gre on the com pany rolls in this district.

loaned towards the construction of more than 300 homes in Warren. The association has the record that in the ten years of its existence it has never fOreclosed on man, but has given ev- eryOne the opportunity of making up deficiencies in payments. This has in- variably been done, as the reports of the association show back money due to be less than S200.
 The new homes which are to be
 built in Warren will be supervised
 by the companies in order to as-
 sure the wOrkmen that they will
 get dollar for dollar in value. Un-
 der the new plan there have all
 ready been made eighty applica-
 tiOns from among the employees
 of the Copper Queen alone, and 1t

 tions will start at once. Practi-
 cally all of the homes will be built
 and occupied by those who. now
 rent, thus giving considerable re-
 lief to the renting situation. A remarkable feature of the town of
 Warren is that more than 90 per
 cent of the residents own their
 own homes. This would be hard
 to equal any place in the United
 States.
 Liberality is the watchwOrd under the rev plan. as it has been with the Cochise Building & Loan association. The usual plan for housing in mining camps is to provide homes Tor rent ing, a plan that is in most cases fin ancially profitable to the company It is the desire of the companies in the Warren district. however, 10 have the means of attracting to the district the best class of labor and to retain them by good homes and the best pos sible living conditions.

There will also be a national honor
