Thismorning found the Ger

and British lines beyond Mont
KENNEL, KENNEL village, Dram
Outre and Farms and hamlets in
the immediate vicinity. A gal
liant regiment of .poilus had
been ordered to hold KENNEL Hill
against attacks at all costs. After the
Germans had broken through the de-
Tending lines and were encirrling the
elevation, the French chung to their
position and Obeyed their commands
to the letter. They battled to the bit
ter end and overwhelming forces OF
the enemy were able to gain the crest
only over the bodies of these gallant
defenders. No more drastic and in
spring stand has been made in re-
cent days than this.
- Battle Began at Dawn.
The allied center attack began an
early hour this morning. While the
French infantry drove forward against
KENNEL from the west, their British
comrades began operation on their
left In the first rush the sturdy Brit
ish tommies forced their way forward
in the face OF a heavy fire and got
into KENNEL village. 1t was q strik,
ing exhibition of bravery that took
the men in khaki across the open
ground that was being swept with
machine gun fire.
For two hours they held the village
while the Germans from the neighbor.
ing hill poured bullets into the place
from rapid fires. At five o'clock it
became apparent that it would be 4
useless sacrifice of life to remain
longer and the British were with.
drawn to safer ground from which
the assault continued.
The French were reported to have
made some progress, but they too
were coming under a grilling fire
from Mont KENNEL and other points.
1t was obvious that it would be ex-
tremely difficult to GUST the Germans
from this commanding position,
which they held with large numbers
of heavily armed men.

n of questions and answers prepared
by Lenine, which exhaustively set
Forth the philosophic, social and economic
platform upon which Bolshevikism is
reared and by means of which it operates.
Arthur Ransome, a special correspondent
in Russia, has supplied his paper, "The
London Daily News" with the following
contribution to the growing literature on
the same timely subject:
"IEa most important thing to be rcmem-
tered in estimating the present situation in
Russia Is that 'Bolshevikism' is a tendency
quite independent Of the personality and doc
times of the Bolshevik leaders. When during
the last few months in Petrogradlwe observed
to each other that more and more people
were turning Boshevik, we meant not that
they were embracing the principles of Social
ism as expounded by Lenine, but simply that
they were coming nearer to active and open
hostility to the government.

bles of the same character. Public opinion
accused the Allied governments of having
provoked these disorders with their money;
it was said that England and France paid the
Republican, Socialist and Liberal leaders of
all sorts to foment revolution and overthrow
the monarchy. This was the opinion of the
Germanophile majority.
"The Spanish government knows full we'll
who fomented these disorders; it is also
aware that the German submarines take on
supplies along the coast of Spain and in the
Bslearic and Canary Islands, that vessels
from Spanish ports help in every way pos

how is this to be avoided? The government
has not the means Of effectively policing its
coasts.
ain the meantime the situation of the
Spaniards becomes worse. The cost Of fac:-
stuffs rises; there is lack Of <0~l, Hearth

proletariat questions of frontiers have no
interest, and that wars, whether victorious
or unsuccessful, are of advantage only to the
capitalist classes and to those directly
parasitic upon them. In their view the work

the capitalist classes form another, and the
struggle between these two is of more i'm

whatever Thus, with regard to the Stock
holm conference, far from showing pro-
Germanism. they alone Of Russian Social
lists took precisely the same view as the
British government, which can hardly be
supposed to favor Germany. Lenine reso-
ll.tely refused to allow his followers to go
