 War time prohibition promises a spectacular struggle in the senate. An early vote is not in prospect. Because of absence of many senators the 'drys' plan to postpone roll call until full membership is present.

ANOTHER GERMAN OFFENSIVE NEAR

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, July 7.-(By the Associated ress)-Resumption of the German of- fensive against some parts of the al lied line is believed to be near.
 It may be said that there are three logical points for the enemy's attack the Chateau Thierry region, the line north of Chalons and in the neighbor- hood of Abbeville, in the Flanders sector. An assault north of Chalons or against Abbeville would be less costly for him, but in the former he would get less important territory than before Abbeville, where his loss would be heavier
 From the best information obtain able, it appears that the Germans dur ing the coming offensive will have be- tween thirty and forty divisions cap able of participating in the attack.
 While waiting for the coming storm, the Americans are discussing the ex- ploit of a handful of comrades from a French in operations at hill 204 yes terday. They were invited to watch the attack and, if they cared to, to join in it and many more volunteered than could be accommodated.
 The American aviators in the Cha teau Thierry sector engaged in several fights today and two enemy planes were shot down. It is impossible to discuss American casualties except as they are indicated in official state ments. Therefore, the details of the fighting cannot be written now.

BERKELEY, July 7.-Charles M Schwab, director general of the emer- gency fleet corporation, speaking to- day at an inspirational mass meeting held by delegates to the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, re- itsrated his belief that the recent rec oyd of delivery from American ship yards of the equivalent of one 10000 ton ship day would be doubled in the near future. Mir. Schwab dwelt on the important part taken by advertising men in the nations war activities. He said one of the contributing factors in 4e rapid and successful building of ships was the patriotic comment and criticism of the press.
 The convention of the Associated Advertising clubs will begin formally tomorrow at San Francisco.

CANADIANS PRAISED [ BY PREMIER BORDEN
rRepublican A. p. Leased Wlre1

LONDON. (via Ottawa), July r. Sir Robert l.. Borden. the Canadian premier. who has just returned from visit to the front. has very good things to say of the Canadian forces.
 "The army corps" he said, "is at it's maximum strength and in the finest condition. l saw about 10000 Canadi- ans gathered on Dominion day at their annual sports. The scene was one never to be forgotten"
 Taken as whole the German in- fantrv surrendered or bolted on the approach. The German machine gun ners. however. fought to the last in many instances.
 Numerous times the Australian and American infantrymen communicated with the tank crews and gave them the direction from which hostile machine gun fire was coming. In very case the tank was able to deal with the rapid firers and thus allow the infantry to advance. One tank which was 200 wards in front of the allied infantry, destroyed a nest of six machine guns by running over it after the gun crews refused to surrender.
 Another tank crushed three rapid firers but a fourth machine gun con- tinued firing at a distance of five or six yards. This gun, in turn, was run over and destroyed, together with it's crew.
 At one point a tank moved against a mound which seemed a likely place for a machine gun. No sign of the enemy was to be seen at first but after the tank had circled the mound once, about 40 Germans came out of a cam- ouflaged trench and ran toward the al- lied infantry to surrender.
 During the consolidation of the new lines. the tanks patrolled the front for nearly half an hour for protection. On one sector. when snipers in a cornfield were making things uncomfortable for the men at work in defenses, tank advanced across No Mans Land and fired several shells into the corn. With the explosions many of the en- emy jumped up in various parts of the field and all were killed by the fire from the tank. Several officers have said since the battle that the prospects for victory never seemed so bright as now. The last work of the tanks had really opened their eyes to the pos abilities of causing the Germans heavy defeats. with slight casualties to the attacking infantry.

HOUSEHOLDERS WILL HAVE COAL RAT|ONS
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wlro1

WASHINGTON, July 7.-Rationing of coal to householders, was an- nounced tonight by the fuel admin istration as among plans designed to prevent threatened shortage of coal next winter.
 Each domestic consumer will be allowed only as much coal as is necessary to heat his house to 6S de- grees, provided every conservation rule has been obeyed. The allowance the announcement said, will be suffi- cient for comfort, but "the thought less and wasteful consumer who finds his allowance gone before the end Of the winter will have only himself to thank if he has no fuel with which to heat his house."
 The plan involves a department of allotments in connection with each local fuel administrators office. The system will be put into operation at once. Each order for coal will be censored by comparison with the rat ing of the house where the coal is to be used.

 ROME, July 7.-The Italian of flciai statement today reads:
 "Between the SiIe and the Piave our troops, having reached with perfect maneuvering and irresti- be etan the right bank of the new Piave and driven the enemy to the other side of the river, now are fortifying themselves on the vast tract of ground recaptured, every yard of which shows traces of the epic struggle and furnishes proof that the enemy's losses were much higher thar he had forseen.
 "The 23rd army corps, having carried out the difficult operation victoriously has added new laurels to it's glory. The fourth infantry division particularly distinguished itself. The bearing of the troops was splendid. The infantry, among whom there was a marine regiment and parties of the royal customs guard, fought with ardor. The artillery of the army corps and the royal navy group con tributed notably to the success with its very effective fire.
 "Our own and the allied air planes and those of the Italian royal navy participated with un- usual daring. Special honor for the great vaIor shown is due the 33rd sapper battalion of engineers.
 "On the Asiago plateau French party carried out bril- liant raid into the enemy lines at Zocchi, overcoming the garrison in lively struggle and captur- ing two officers, 64 of other ranks and two machine guns.
 Between the Frenzela valley and the Brenta the enemy three times attempted to attack our position on the Corone. He was sanguinarily repulsed."

AMERICANS KILL GERMAN
 OFFICER FOR COWARDICE
Republican A. p. Leased WIrel

LONDON, July 7.-The ease with which the Australians and Americans carried out their attack in the Villers- Bretonneux region on Thursday should be a matter for reflection, according to Reuters correspondent at British headquarters.
 Commenting on the double victory the correspondent says:
 Even granting the perfect planning of our attack and it's admirable per formance more resistance should have been met and the defeat should not have been so complacently accepted. '
 In describing how a German officer was "obliterated" for having, after sur rendering. shot an American sergeant the correspondent remarks that Ger mans should beware of such acts of treachery.
 The American is not a soft fighter at any time" he says. Tt took good deal to get him into the war and it is going to take a good deal to get him out of it before the war is finished The finish he believes in is dead Ger mans.'
 But when averaging treachery he is hard fighter. Lest he should forget what he had to avenge, he went into the fight shouting Lusitania.'
