Berlin, via London. May 7.-Austra-
liam contingents in night attack be-
tween the Ancre and the Somme sue
Ceeded in reaching the foremost Ger
man lines south Of the Corbie-Bray
road, the war office admitted in its
official statement today. Otherwise.
the report asserts, 1.-The attack broke
down before our posts with heavy
losses" On the north bank of the
Lys English advances failed. 1t Is
stated. A German raid across the
Aisne Canal also is reported.
The text follows:
"On the battlefronts in the morning
hours the artillery activity was lively,
while during the day it remained gen.
orally slight.
"On the northern bank Of the Lys
advances by the English failed.
Between the AnCre and the Somme
the enemy employed Australians IN a
night attack. On both sides Of the
Corbie-Bray road they succeeded in
reaching our foremost lines. For the
rest their twice-repeated attack broke
down with heavy losses before our
postes.
Here the artillery battle continued
until daybreak with the greatest in
tensity.
ITO the south OF Brimont storming
detachments pushed forward across
the Aisne Canal into the enemy's
positions near Coury. They brought
back some prisoners.
"On the remainder of the front there
were local forefield engagements"

was only recently announced through
Minister Caldwell at Teheran that the
Shah Of Persia had subscribed $4,000
from his personal funds to the Third
Liberty Loan.
Shortage of shipping due to the war
has cut off much of the commerce of
Persia and prevented the accomplish
ments of important irrigation pro-
jects in the country under English
auspices. As a result, little food is
raised in Persia and her ability to
buy food in the markets Of the world
has been completely crippled.
International Movement Likely.
The headquarters OF the Armenian
relief society in New York City was
yesterday notified of the State De-
partment's dispatch. which came from
the society's representative in Te-
heran. and it is probable that an in
ternational movement will be set on
foot shortly to get food to the starv-
ing people.
1t is also possible that medical units
will be sent to Persia by the United
States and other countries to aid in
combating the typhus and other dis
ehses of famine with which the popu-
lation Is stricken.

Senator Calder Wants
Park Tract Cultivated,
Not Used as Golf Links

Golf links. while they may be
conducive to good health and en-
large your vocabulary of swear
words. do not and cannot, feed
you. This is the view Senator CAL
der takes of the proposition to turn
the land in or about Potomac Park
into golf links instead Of turning
several hundred Boy Scouts with
hoes and other implements into the
premises to raise a crop of corn or
something else that we can eat.
The Secretary of War will bs call
ed upon. according to the resolu-
ton offered and passed IN the Sem
ate by Senator Calder. to explain
to Congress IL any of this land used
last year by the Boy Scouts to raise
corn has been withdrawn from cul-
tivation and laid out in golf links,
and also why the land cast of the
railroad tracks. which has already
been laid out for that purpose,
should not be allotted for farming
purposes.

WILL ASK BIG
sum FOR SHIP
CONSTRUCTION
Hurley and Schwab to APP
pear Before Appropria-
tons Committee Today.

Members Of the Shipping Board
and Emergency Fleet Corporation
will go before the House Appro-
priatlons Committee today. 1t was
announced last night, to ask an ap-
propriation for the new fiscal year
that will include. besides an ex-
pansion OF the shipbuilding pro-
gram, a vast project for the i'm
provement of ports and port ter
minals.
Edward N. Hurley, chairman of
the Shipping Board; Charles Piez
and Charles NJ. Schwab. vice presi-
dent and director general. respec-
lively. of the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration, were in final conference
this afternoon with the Shipping
Board Commissioners and Trus-
tees. deciding the last details of the
1919 estimates.
Plan Large Expansion.
These estimates contemplate the
building of at least 200 more
wooden ships in addition to the
contracts already let. a large ex-
pansion of the steel ship program
of heavier tonnage to the ship. and
a great project of ship terminal
improvements that include the con-
struction Of $50 drydocks at the
main shipping ports, with ware
houses and repair shops.
A few ports on the Pacific coast,
San Francisco, Oakland, Portland,
and Seattle, may participate in the
intended development. but not to
the extent OF Atlantic ports.
In advance of the conference to-
day with the House Committee,
Shipping Board officials last night,
conforming with the usual depart
mental courtesy. would not make
public the amount they would ask
for, but that the estimates are
large. perhaps larger than the orig
inal appropriation of $1,000, 900. 900.
was indicated by the comment of
one high official that this time it
would be "a real sum-
VIII Provide Steel.
Mr.. SChwab expects to operate
the steel yards so that, instead of
complaining, as some still are OBJ
liged to. that they actually are
without certain plates or frames,
there will be in every yard a sup
ply of material for three to five
months in advance.
Although the present production
is not adequate to supplying such
a reserve. the board is encouraged
by the last weeks production Of
steel plates. amounting to 10000
tons.

"Thrift Stamp Girls"
At Navy Yard Cover
Ground Every Payday

"Just try and beat it II you can"
that's the way the Navy Yard en-
ployes feel about their war saw
ings record. With vim these men
and women went "over the top" in
the liberty loan. not forgetting the
war savings, for the total, as sub
mitted by Paymaster c. =. Bennett,
now stands at nearly 100000.
Buy q Stamp and Give the Kaiser
a Cramp," has proved an effective
slogan with the Navy Yard. and
there's hardly a Navy Yard worker
who has not responded to this op-
portunity either to double or treble
his weekly or daily pledge.
No little credit for the splendid
showing made at the Navy Yard is
due the Thrift Stamp Girls" ten
of them who cover the entire yard
each pay day with two young men
who make the necessary change.
Headquarters know just what the
pledge of every man is and his
stamps are ready for him on the
days he wishes them.

actually had been hindered by spies
and prCpa gandists.

is said to have replied.

Later in the day William c. Pot
ter testified that German spies. both
in an out of aeroplane factories,
had greatly retarded the program.
He said that street cars and trains
to factories had been interfered
with. that machinery in the fac
tories was ruined by sabotagcrs:
and told of planes. the parts OF
which had been weakened.
Baker also said that it never had
been claimed that the Liberty Mo-
tor had been created" by a group
of experts locked in a room. He
said 1t was an adoption of the best
Packard, Rolls Royce, and German
engines. Here again. the Secretary
warned against giving information
valuable to the enemy"
Dent and Anthony reminded him
that they could see no harm in de-
scrlbing motor. or in disclosing
whether money spent for 1t had re-

ment.
Baker repeated that he thought
the whole matter should be kept
under cover for military reasons.
