 The Germans on three important sectors of the western battle front have been compelled to give up posi- tons of great strategetic value under the onslaughts of the British and French troops.
 In the Lys sector west of Armen- teres the enemy has retreated on a front of six miles leaving Meryille in the British hands. Between the Metz and Oise rivers the French have fought their way to the western out skirts of the dominating position of Lassigny and farther south in this hill and wooded region have debouch- ed from the Thiescourt wood and all so captured Primpez on the Noyt Compeigne road.
 Around the curve in the battle line northwest of Soissons, the French from near Carlepont to Fontenoy on the Aisne, Q distance of approximate ly nine miles, have driven back the ehemy-an average depth of more than mile and captured several villages and 2,200 prisoners.
 Unofficial reports record the cap ture by the British of the railway station on the western outskirts of the important town of Rove, one of the pivotal points on the battlefront between the Somme and the Disc, but there is no officials confirmation of this.
 Viewed on the war maps the gains in the new operations most import ant ones for the allies, for aside from wide areas over which the en- emy has been compelled to acknowl- edge defeat, the weakening in Ger man defense is becoming daily more noticeable and apparently within 6 short time they probably will be forced to commence retrograde movement on scale that will mean the entire blotting out of old lines and the taking up of new ones to the east and southeast, possibly from the region of Rheims to Ypres.
 The Lys section is fast falling away under the attacks of the British and the voluntary retirement of the Ger mans to new defense positions east ward aud seemingly the big western bulge into the allied line between Ypres and Labassee soon must dis appear.
 Under the new gains of the Brit those made by the French from Las sieny to the Disc valley and north west of Blossoms, the Germans now are in bad predictment. Here their positions arc dominated by the allied guns from the west, southwest, and for many miles, and apparently re- treat from the western Aisne will be necessitated.
 The latest German official com munication asserts that French at tacks between the Disc and Aisne, delivered over wide front, failed, but the French war office statement is specific in announcing the pene- tration of the environs of I4assigny, the cutting of passageway through the Thiesconrt wood and the capture of Pimprez. That there has been hard fighting, however, is indicated by the British official statement which says that northwest of Chaul- res the Germans succeeded in pene- trating the British lines at several points, but later were driven out.
 On the battle fronts there is little activity, except in the nature of ar tillery dueIs and patrol encounters
 Additional American troops arrived last week in Vladivostok to aid the other international troops in their operations against the Bolshevih and German forces in Siberia.

Washington, Aug. 19.-Congress prepared today to enact quickly tho new man-power legislation, extend ing the draft age limits to IS and 45 years, for the American military pro- gram which General March, chief of staff, told the house military commit tee should win the war in 1919.
 While the hose committee began work on the bill by hearing General March, Secretary Baker and Provost Marshal General Growder. the senate set it's summer vacation again in or der to take up the measure Thursday. It appeared probable that the bill would be debated simultaneously in the senate and house the last of tnrs week and passed soon thereafter
 Senate prohiition advocates agreed Ito temporarily lay aside the national prohibition bill and give the man power program the right of way
 Before the house committee, Secre- tary Baker and his aides again urged action on the bill. discussing various phases of the enlarged program which calls for an army of nearly four mii- lion Americans in France by Juno 90, 1919, with another million in training in this country.
 Predicting that the war will be won or lost on the western front, regard less of what happens elsewhere, Gen. eral March told the committee that with 80 trained American divisions of about 45,000 men each, in France. un- der an American commander, victory ought to rest on American arms next year.
 Rciterating his belief that such a force could go through the German lines at will, General March went fur ther and electrified the committeeman by declaring such a force should bring the war to successful con- clusion in 1919."
 To exert this American man-power in attaining victory General March said. every single man between IS and 45 years in class one, would Dc needed by next spring Shipping fa- cilities are assured, he added, and maintenance prolems have been con sldered i'll the program.
 Suggestions that the five million army prOgrem would exhaust Amer icas man power were laughingly de nied by General March, but he joined Secretary Baker in explaining tha. 1t represents Americas maximum et- fort for the present,
 Plan for calling new registrants un- der the proposal, explained by Seere- tary Baker, provide for three classes, probably to be called in order ;hoGe between 19 and 37 years of age, those between 37 and 45 and those between is ani fJ. Mir. Baker did not object to separate classification of IS year old youths, but he and General March said all eligibles probaly would be called out not later than next spring The secretary told the committee that his previous statement of the depart ment's intention to liberalize the draft regulations in dealing with the older men to be made subject to call had been misconstrGed. He said there was no intention to exempt married men as a class and that married men who do not support their wives or are not engaged in useful occupations will nc called as they now are.
 Discussing the work or fight amendment of Senator Thomas of Col orado, to the senate bill, Secretary Baker said it seems entirely con- sistent with the present regulations and is unobjectionable. He said 1t does not provide for conscription ol

PUT OLD ENEMY
TO UTTER ROUT
Tells how to lift off that touchy
corn without hurting
one particle

Hospital records show that every
time you cut corn you invite lockjaw
of blood poison, which is needless
says a Cincinnati authority, who tells
you that quarter ounce Of drug
called freezone can be obtained at lit
tie cost from the drug store but is
sufficient to rid ones feet of every
hard or soft corn or callus.
You simply apply few drops OF
this freezone on tender, aching corn
and the soreness is instantly relieved
Shortly the entire corn can be lifted
out, root and all, without pain.
This drug is sticky but dries at once
and is claimed to just shrivel up any
corn without infiaming or even irri
tating the surrounding tissue or skin.
If your wife wears high heels she
will be glad to know of this.-Adv.

City, Ind, who was arrested here
Tuesday as an enemy alien, still was
in Jail today awaiting further consid-
Grafton OF his case by federal authori-

Miller, who visited Washington to

officials about his citizenship papers,
made a statement to the district attor-
ney yesterday. He said that he came
to this country with his parents when
five years old and that his father be-
came a citizen long before the mayor
reached the age Of 81 years. Politi-
cal enemies, he asserted, started the
report that the Charles Miller who OBJ
tanned citizenship papers was not his
father and he took out his first papers
with a view to removing any doubt as
to his citizenship. He is serving his
third term as mayor.
