French and British Artil- lery Enfilade Attackers
 With Devastating Fire.
pRUSSlANS INCUR
 VERY HEAVY LOSSES
Canadians in Another Successful Al. tack south of ArraS- Germans systematically Destroying
 \mienS.

Associated Press; War Sammary)
 The allied defense on the Flanders front to the southwest of Ypres has again been tested by the Germans and has been found adequate. Two divisions of TeutOn troops were em- ployed on a relatively short front and were sent into the fight under cover of q terrific artillery fire.
 The front chosen for the attack extended from the village of La Clytte to Voormezeele, but the center of the assault seems to have been at Hierstraat, q hamlet northeast of Iienlmel nill The Hanks of the Germans attacking line were stopped short by fire from the French and British artillery posted on high ground and which was able to enfilade the German regiments as they tried to advance. In the cen ter, however, the Germans made quite d dent in the billed line. We'd nesday night, however. the allies drGVc forward in a counter attack and the latest reports from Field i Marshal iiaig are to the effect that the line has been reestabished. The Germans are reported to have lost very heavily during the fighting. Artillery DuelS Elsewhere. There is d constant rumble of heavy artillery fire along the Somme front, but here the British have again improved their positions by To- cal attacks.
 The Canadian forces from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia have en- gagged in successful attacks south of Arras
 On the southern sectors of the Somme salient, as we'll as in Lor- raine and other sectors farther south there have been no noteworthy com bats.
 The artillery of the contending armies continues very active in the Asiago basin region, on the Italian front. The official reports from Rome tell of enemy troops being hampered by the allied fire. The , Rrenta and Maserada sectors also have been centers of heavy Lombard ment.
 Germans Wrecking Amiens. The city of Amiens is being sys- tematically destroyed by German ar tlllery fire, in spite Of the 1act that there are no allied troops in that place, and it is of no military value, since the allies have constructed new lines of communication outside of the city
 The venerable cathedral, one of the finest in Europe, is reported to have been struck by shells and to be in peril of destruction.

ROISHEVEKI TELL OF NEW FREEDOM
(By Golay Pravda)

scarcely believe that had no,
dreamed it all Was there really
a free country in the world? Was
Russia really holding aloft the
torch OF progress to light the
way Of the other nations to free
dom? 1t all seemed strangely
like Il chapter from II fanciful
novel.
But the deep, soft voice of my
Russian visitor chased all doubts
from my mind as his morning
greeting reached my ears. Soon
we were hard at it again, each
intent on digging out the facts
about conditions in the others

1t was at this time that | show

of the 100000 |. w. w. plot and
the proposed search Of the Shilka
and received his answer to the alb
surd tale. 1t is worth repeating
again.
1--WE are still considered allies
Of the United States" he said,
"and even If we were not, we
could not be called enemies. Had
we brought so much gold with us
why might we not do as we wish
with that is ours? Surely in free
America no one should object TO
the giving of money for the de-
Tense of men TO be tried before
a jury selected from the people?
The story in that bourgeois paper
does rot fit together well and |
think there must be something
back of all this that has not been
told.
THE reason we had n success

read such papers. That" he said
emphatically as he pointed to the
P.-l. story, sis poisonl Under the
old regime the capitalists were
free to print such papers and as
the Bolsheviki believe in freedom,
they still can print them, but the
workers were even then too free
to read and believe such lies in
the papers.
America has been considered
the mother of other countries and
the teacher Of liberty. We came
as the child, hoping to learn from
the parent and we find that we
must teach the mother the real
meaning of liberty"
From speaking of newspapers
in the United States our CONVEX
sation swung to the other ex-
treme and soon we were discus
sing education and matters CON
Gected with the child and the
school. In reply to a question the
Shilka mate said:
Child labor still exists in Rus
STA To a small degree. 1t has been
necessary under the old regime
for the whole family to labor
from daylight until dark. The war
has withdrawn so many from pro-
ductive labor that the necessity
for child labor still remains in
some quarters, but it is fast dis
appearing. We are faced by
lack II teachers in the schools
which comes from the fact that
education was deliberately re-
stricted under the Car The Boil
sheviki have done away with all
private schools by transforming
them into public schools and
throwing them open to all, to
young and old alike. Private

told him that the men quoted
were not Socialists, anarchists, or
Bclsheviki sympathizers, and read
aloud their views:
make no mistake, the Bolshc-
vikists have got Russia and they
have gotten order-good order,
too. The treatment the Bolshe-
Wiki fighters accorded the cap
tured cadets during the last Pet
rograd battles was often more
considerable than such prisoners
would have received in any other
country, especially as some cadets
captured second time had obyi-
ously broken what amounted TO "a
! parole.
"The successful rebels in any
other European capital would have
shot them. This was in Petro-
grad, but the Moscow fighting
was much bitterer.
with such a regime as is now
] IN the saddle we shall be able
to deal. If we remain.
THE diplomatic problem now is
not o problem in frontiers, but
big human problem. Buchanan
(the British ambassador TO Rus
sia) knows his Russia for years
back, but he doesn't know revo-
lutionary Russia. He only knows
the czars' Russia. The old Rus
STA was one thing, the new Rus
STA is absolutely another"
"That is quite fair statement"
said my Russian visitor, who SEEM
ed rather amused at the word
"Bolshevikists.' for Bolshe means
majority or most and wiki means
the same in Russia as the suffix
"ist" does in English. 1t is as
tho one had said Socialists.
Naturally from the question of
crime we drifted into "A discussion
Of the great social problem of
prostitution. Here again Russia
has set an example for the entire

"No longer are prostitutes perse-

will take time to solve, but there
is no attempt to deal with effect
