ropAYs wAR BULLETIN

British Headquarters in France,
May 2-The German field depots are
being heavily drawn upon to replace
recent casualties. which run into the
hundred of thousands The thirteen
German divisions have just receiv-
ed a company OF $50 mere boys of
the 1890 class who had only eight
weeks of training and who were not
to be put into fighting unless abso-
lutely necessary. But the fact they
are in actual battle lines suggests
the German need of more men.
The allies are standing like a
stone wall against the waves of the
enemy forces. moving them down by
the tens of thousanGs every day.
The French made still further
gains in a local attacks. Baker says
for unlimited army TO continue war.
Secretary says he will submit such
measure as an amendment to the
draft law and that the department
requires blanket authority.
