RULING MADE ON THE SOLDIERS BALLOTS
 IN PHOENIX
NO PROVISION IS MADE FOR MEN LEAVING FOR TRAINING CAMPS BETWEEN NOW AND PRI- MARY so THAT VOTES WILL BE LOST

PHOENIX, July 30.-Every now and then something develops in cOnnec- tion with the soldiers voting flaw that disclOses imperfections, haituses and unprovided for contingencies in it. It provides among other things that forty days before a primary or general election ballots shall be sent from offices of boards of supervisors to soldiers from the respective cOun- ties of the various cantonments where they shall be marked by the soldiers and with an affidavit signed by a commanding officer, the blank form accompanying the ballot shaa be returned to the county whence sent.
 It did not accur to the lawmakers that soldiers would be going forward regardless of the dates mentioned in the law when certain things shouIi be done; it did not occur to them that there should be anything more import ant than the election in Arizona; they appeared to believe that all move ments in the war, even German of fensives would be so timed as to con form to the Arizona soldiers voting law.
 But it has since been ascertained that some of the boys who are not al ready in their cantonments will no. be there at the time the ballots are sent though they will be there; that is, at some eantOnment, in time to mark ballot and send it back to the board of supervisors before the pri- mary. The question then arose whether it would not be proper to let these departing soldiers take the bal lots and other paraphernalia with them and mark the ballots after their arrival
 County Attorney Laney was asked whether that could be done. He has prepared an opinion for the board of supervisors in which he believes that may be done. Though the law says that the ballot and other papers mus. be sent by mail the county attorney had in mind that though service in lawsuit may be sent by mail it is equally effective if it is made in per son. There is also a clause in the soldiers voting law which suggests the waving of informalities less than irregularities, the main idea being to give every soldier a vote who is en- titled to a vote.
 There will still be another class of voters going out; or at any rate there is likely to be, those who will leave here before the primary but not long enough to have arrived at a canton ment and mail back their ballots so that they will reach the board of su- peIvisOrs not later than the night of the election, after which no ballots from soldiers can be counted.
 It has been suggested that in such cases the votes of the soldiers might be taken before their departure. But there is nothing in the law permitting that and that question is not touched upon in the opinion of the county at- tOrney.

TERRIBLY SWOLLEN
Suffering Described As Torture

Rossville, Ga.-Mrs. Kate Lee Able, of this place, writes: "My husband is an engineer, and once while lifting, he in- iured himself with piece of heavy ma chinery, across the abdomen. lie was 50 sore he could not bear to press on himself at all, on chest or abdomen. He weighed l65 lbs., and ieD off until he weighed no lbs, in two weeks.
 He became constipated and it looked like he would die. We had three different doctors, yet with all their mG dicine, his bowels failed to act. He would turn up a ten-cent bottle of castor oil, and drink it two or three days in succession. He did this yet without result. We became desperate, he suffered so. He was swol- len terribly. He told me his suffering could only be described as torture.

Sergy-Seringes section. He says the Prussian guards suffered heavily in repeated attacks against the AmeA- jeans, who piled up enemy corpses on their front
 The correspondent says for some time Monday the Germans dominated positions on the heights beyond Sergy, the Americans being in the val ley. It was said here that the fight ing Monday afternoon was most in tense The Americans had no cove, and were obliged to lie in street gut ters for shelter but with the bayonet and machine guns they stormed the heights.
 "Sergy changed hands nine times.' the correspondent continues, but to- night is in American hands. The bit terness of the fighting is shown by the fact that the Americans have only taken a few prisoners. The men are eXultant over having defeated so se- verely the fresh guard divisions.
 The Americans found their wound ed in Sergy had been bayonetted. The Germans placed machine guns in the church and also in the Red Cross building.
 The most probable reason for the counter attack is that the enemy found the allied advance too rapid and that it necessitated bringing in the guards into the action to gain the time neces- sary for an orderly retreat"

GERMAN OFFICIAL

BERLIN. via London, July 3O.-The German official communication of to- day dealing with the fighting north of the Ourcq and southwest of Rheims Monday says the allied forces, includ- ing French. British and Americans at tackled in strength but were thrown hack with the heaviest of losses over the entire battle front. The comInuni- cation says the heaviest of attacks were launched against the Hartenness- Fere- -En- -TardenOis front, but that the assaulting waves broke down at or be- fore the German lines and some times under counter attacks. From Fere En Tardenois eastward the allied thrusts likewise were unsuccessful, while re- peated attacks southwest of Rheims were everywhere repulsed with heavy losses.
 The text of the communication fol- lows:
 There has been lively reconnoiter- ing activity during the night. Partial attacks by the British in the region of Morris and on both sides of the Ayette were repulsed.
 ''The enemy launched attacks with strong forces against our new lines north of the Ourcq and on our posi- tions on the wooded heights southwest of Rheims The French, British and Americans were thrown back on the whole of their attacking front with the heaviest of losses.
 ''The main weight of the enemy's at tack was directed against the Harten- nes-Fere En Tordenois front, where during the morning and afternoon the enemy stOrmed again and again in dense waves. His assaults broke down before and at our lines, some times under our counter attacks.
 Tn the afternoon the enemy ex- tended his attack beyond Fere En Tar denois eastward. They were just as un- successful as partial attacks he launched in the morning at the Bois Meuniere. Southwest of Rheims the enemy renewed his attacks as many as five times at isolated points between Chambrechy and Vrigny, keeping up violent partial attacks until late in the evening. He was repulsed everywhere with sanguinary losses

It was estimated that a gross sales tax on all articles and on transactions affecting all articles would produce upwards of $2,0OO,0OO.- = 900 if only a ? per cent rate was adopted
 Under the present law, the tax on automobiles. trucks. piano players, 'graphaphones, photographs. talking machines and records, sporting goods and cameras, sold by the manufac- turers or producer or importer, is 3 per cent of sale price; on perfumes, cos metics, proprietary medicines, toilet soaps and waters. hair dyes and tooth pastes, and chewing gum, 2 per cent; f; club dues, 10 per cent and admissions to amusements 1 cent per 10 cents or less paid, and increases of permanent or leased use of opera houses or other amusement seats and boxes, 10 per cent of sale price.

had ever been employed. The Ameri- can guns replied heavily.
 The order for the advance came, and the line moved forward across the grain filds directly through the bar rage. On a nearby hillside the chief staff watched the operation. They saw shells fall, in some cases leaving long gaps in the line, but the troops never halted.
 On through the barrage the Ameri- cans went into the German positions, attacking fiercely the machine guns and infantry attachments. The bar rage died away, the Germans leaving the work of resistance to the men they had failed to protect with their heavy guns.
 The Germans were ''mopped up" and the Americans held their new line just east of the forest. Not many prisoners were taken but here and there a few were rounded up and brought in. Sergeant Louis Loetz of Sioux City, Iowa, contributed four teen. He attacked eighteen Germans who had become separated from their command, killing four of them and capturing the others.
 Awful execution was done by the Americans. Eight captured guards said they were all that remained of a company of eighty-six. Yesterday their number had been reduced to thirty and a lieutenant. Today the lieutenant and all but they were killed.

 The statement says:
 During the latter part of the night patrols of the first Australian division who had entered German positions about Morris successfully established themselves east of the village which they surrounded and captured. One hundred and sixty-nine prisoners and number of trench mOrtars and ma chine guns were taken by us in the course of this enterprise. Our casual ties were light A few additional prisoners were captured by our patrols during the day in Nieppe Forest.

SECOND PHAsE OPENS

WASHINGTON, July 30.-The sec ond battle of the Marne has entered a new phase. Both French and Ger man official statements tonight re- flected the increased fury of the fight ing. indicating to officials a new crisis is approaching.
 Ii was not clear whether the enemy had reached a line on which he pro posed to halt. The general trend oi his present front along the irregular line that now forms the bottom Of the Aisne-Marne salient, was regarded by most observers, as not representlhg positions of such nature as would lend themselves to a determined effort 10 bring the allied forces to a halt. The intensity of the struggle and the vigor with which picked German troops have been hurled forward in local counter attacks showed conclusively the i'm portauce the German high command attaches to holding fast, for the mo ment at least. The reaction appeared to center in the American spearhead' striking at the center of the enemy nosition. It was quite evident that the Germans regarded his thirst as men acing
 Officers based their views on press reports coming from London, Paris or the fighting fronts. These told of re- heated attacks and counter attacks, hut a summary of all reports seemed to show that the Germans had failed to relieve their situation, although the raniditv of the advance was reduced. Tast accounts indicated the American nositions southeast of Fere En Tarde- nois had been retained. The hercest fighting of the battle appears to have taken place here with the village or Sergy as the storm center.
 If the American spearhead IS tur- ther advanced, this, coupled with the French and British flank operations 10 the east and west, would create sit nation that might well force further German withdrawal to escape envelop- ment one one side or the other of the American thrust, it was thought
 There was some fear that the i'm petuousity of the American troops might lead them too far forward Tn case of renewed successes placing them in danger in their turn of squeeze operations by the enemy.
 Whether the enemy resistance IS along a definite line or is merely a screen behind which he is struggling either to prepare strong defense posi- ticns along the heights of the Vesle or to organize reserves could not be told. The report that seventy-One German divisions had been concentrated in this section led to speculation as to the answer the Germans are planning to the striking victory General Foch has thus far achieved.
 Secretary Baker said today that he favored announcement of the specific units engaged in such operations as the battle of Sergy or the crossing of the Ourcq.
