WASHINGTON. March IS.-Plans for taking over Dutch shipping in American waters at noon today were changed in the last moment In the absence of a reply from Holland to the Bri.ish-American demand for transfer of the ships. according 10 the agreement. which Germany blocked, it was decided to wait at least anoth- sr day to avoid seeming discourtesy to the little kingdom, which has had one of the most difficult roles among the neutrals in the world war.
 Tonight the United States still awaited final word from London, where negotiations were conducted. An urgent message was sent 10 Lon con late in the day asking for re- ply.
 It is believed some trouble with in .on.ing cables is responsible for the delay in transmitting the Dutch re- ply.
 Unequivocal acceptance of the ori- sinal agreement for the transfer or ships is wanted by the United States, which will accept no less and is pre- pared to go ahead with the requisi- .ioningl of the tonnage unless a favor able reply is received. Press dis paches indicating that Holland had asked that the ships be prohibited from carrying troops or munitions were taken to indicate that she was making last effort 10 placate Ger many. in the face of submarine threats and economic pressure.

Spectacu!ar 0ffensives By General Petain's Troops Net Gains Against Huns On Wide Sector.
rBy Review Leased wIrel

ON THE FRENCH FRONT IN FRANCE, Monday, March IS (By the I Assd. ss)-The center of military interest during the last few days has passed from the Champagne to the vicinity of Verdun, where both the French and the Germans have broken | into marked activity.
 In the Verdun region the correspOn dent watched the execution of two trench raids on a large scale carried out by the French on Saturday even ing and at dawn on Sunday, the re- suits in which exceeded all expecta- 7 tions. Within twelve hours the French had penetrated the remarkably strong | system of German trenches in both | Cheppy Wood and MalancOurt Wooa to depth at some points of more than , quarter of a mile They destroyeu all the enemy works, his blockhouse and shelters, which had taken the Ger mans three years to construct and brought back two groups of prisoners, each comprising eighty men, while the French themselves suffered only the slightest losses.
 Germans Nervous
 General Von Gallwitzs army, acting under the direct orders of the German crown prince, displayed evident ner- vOusness under this pressure as was shown by the hurried arrival of largo reserves in motor lories. They were too late, however, to hinder the French The ground was very unfavorable to the trench attack, owing to the clay soil m which immense shell holes from former battles had become filled with water to a depth of some six feet. Among these the raiders were forced to pick their way under the constant peril of slipping in and drowning! The artillery preparation, however, was so overwhelming that the French met with only slight opposition to their progress.
 The Cheppy Wood operation was the easier of the two, owing to the fact 1t was daylight and within five min. utes after the assault groups had lief. the parapets, parties of prisoners could be seen running toward the French lines. Everything was carried out on time schedule, and when the French returned to their own lines they had secured about 80 prisoners.

fRr Review Leased wlre,

COPENHAGEN, Monday, March IS. Chancellor Won Hertling, on the first reading in the Reichstag of the peace treaty with Russia today. declared he did not wish to discuss the opinions of Germany's enemies regarding the treaty.
 "Hypocracy," the chancellor added, ''has become second nature to the enc my whose untruthfulness is made worse by his brutality.
 Among the entente there is not the slightest inclination to abandon the war, hut rather the intention is mani fested to continue this terrible combat till we are destroyed. We shall not lose courage on that account for we are prepared for everything. We are prepared to make further sacrifices and stand firm as a rock in our confi- dence in our splendid army leaders and our heroic soldiers.
 Criticises Using Force
 Deputy Fehrenbach of the Centrist party expressed regret that help had not been given Finland by Sweden as German action apparently had failed to meet with complete approval in Sweden. Germany. he said, only aims at clearing Finland of Bolsheviki bands and when the German forces un- dOubtedly will be withdrawn from Fin land. Deputy Fehrenbach argued that the Poles should unequivocally recog- nize the integrity of the German em- pire, while the Germans, for their part woul1 renounce all plans of annexa- tiOn. He added:
 We regard the right of peoples to self determination as a point of honor and as a criterion for the honest policy of Germany before the world" pr. Edouard H. David, majority so- cialist denounced the Brest-Litovsk peace as not a peace by understanding but an unvarnished peace by force, adding:

TIDAL WAVE OF NEW SLEEVES
One Would Think World Had Gone
Mad Over Arm Coverings, Fashion
Correspondent Writes.

One feels. In running full tilt against
the tidal wave Of new sleeves, the utter
futility Of trying to describe ever the
best Of them, says a fashion writer.
Continuing, she asserts: One would
think that the world had gone quite
mad over arm coverings.
Possibly 1t Is true that the French
and American designers, realizing that
they could not introduce anything spe-
cially brilliant or novel In the new
costumery because of the lack of ma
~terials, put their genius to work in de-
vising a vast variety of complex and
stimulating minor details.
However, this does not contribute to
the pleasure a woman thinks she will
find in wearing her old clothes. We
ure wise enough to know that 1t is in
the adoption of changing details that
the majority of women show their
knowledge of fashions.
A Om may continue to wear {
blue serge gown cut In the form OF q
coat and skirt II she realizes that she
must instantly adapt that gown to the
tight or loose cuff, the high or the low
waistline, the gather or the plain hip.
A somersault In costumery is not al
ways followed, even by well-dressed
women, but there are none SO poor in
interest but they will do honor TO q
quick change in the minor detail Of
q costume.

In the elimination Of nOn-essentials,

writer. N3s tt3t sa
This Is an admirable aid to re-
forming clothes. A bad neckTine may
be cut away and stitched or Its edges
or merely touched with a white or
candle piping; and sleeves that are
worn out at the elbows or, ungrace-
fully adjusted at the wrists may be
clipped on above the elbow and given
q severe finish.
The insistence upon the cuirass
blouse, which IL the best name that
most Of its followers a find, relieves
q woman's mind as to what to do with
her separate skirts; and the fashion
for the modified minaret tunic, which
swings from the shoulders and fares
at Its hem,i in the Arabian fashion,
gives her q chance to use o aartng
skirt as an upper garment.
Little has been said concerning this
minaret tunic by those who speak
often Of fashions. Memory is short.
and probably there are hundreds who
have forgotten the brief. brilliant reign
Of this bit of orientalism that came
into being through q popular play.
The fact that 1t is In fashion should
be received with joy by the econo-
mists. I'll tell you why. There are
In every wardrobe skirts In more or
less good condition that flare at the
hem. They are l~eft-overs from last
season, and some Of them have been
worn defiantly by those who did not
intend to go round the whirfigig OF
fashion. These are the garments that
can be easily turned into minaret tu-
MICS. AS fashion permits one to wear
a skirt of q different material from the
tunic or bodice, there is no difficulty
in matching up the tunic with some
fabric that will do duty beneath It.
This trick of economy car be ap-
piled to evening gowns as well as to
those for the street. Velvet and satin

a narrow, short skirt dropped beneath
It. The building Of the bodice de-
ponds upon the material In hand.
Often there is enough left from a
skirt of average length that is cut
into a minaret tunic to build a bib
bodice without sleeves. Fashion, you
know. still bent on economy and Q n
servation. permits separate sleeves
from the bodice.
