there must he no intervention without

any intervention Is the consent OF the

tor. The request comes as result OF

ber OF men taken away in the June

Or. Carried will exert his full author
ity to prevent further inroads among

ask that some plan Of preferred labor
distribution be devised TO replace the
men taken away.
Statistics from the principal coal
producing States have been compiled by
the operators In connection with ng-
ures supplied by the Office OF Provost

LONDON, June 20. - The operations
yesterday on the battle front in France
and Flanders were significant in .
double sense. They indicate that tho
spirit Of aggression is strong in tho
Allies. that advantage is being taken
Of opportunities to venture on often
sive movements that must be disturb
ing to the enemy. and also they reveal
that the Allies commanders have dis
covered the weak points of the Ger
man line.
The best efforts that the Germans
were able to make last night and to-
to win back the positions they lost
yesterday. In the scissors district the
new French lines remain intact, while
on the British sector near Nieppe For.
est the only change is that the number
Of prisoners taken is now given at
more than 400. and two field guns have
been added to the guns captured.
Southwest of Rheims, at Bligny. the
Germans essayed an attack against the
sector held by the Italians, but were
driven of.
Importance Of French Gain.
The larger and more important of the
two attacks made by the Allies yester-
day was that OF the French south OF
the Aisne. In ravine between the viii
lagos of Ambleny and Montgobert. Hid.
den In this depression. the Germans were
able to assemble their forces free from
observation, thus affording a jumping of
place for a new offensive. The French
success in clearing the ravine will make
, 1t difficult for the Germans in any fu.
ture attempt to get around the forest Of
Nillers-Cotterets.
The British operation in the Lys re-
gion where they cleared the border OF
Nieppe forest, thus preventing the Ger.
mans from getting strong position
among the trees. resulted in the capture
of three villages. as did the French
| movement. The British losses were par
ticularly light. due probably to the fact
that the German divisions on the front
line have been filled with second rate
troops This seems to indicate that the
