No Limitino of Production.

Roger Babson, who is one of the
most reliable advisers of labor In the
United States, gives good advice when
lie says: "Workingmen should have
their right in red to collective ac-
ton, including collective bargaining
In a very real sense they should be
made partners in the business with a
share in the profits and, at least along
certain lines, share in the control.
But there must be no limiting of pro-
duction, no reduction of the efficiency
of the skillful and Woodworking men
to the plane of the shiftless and inef-
ficient." 1t remains for the laboring
men of every craft to see to it that
individual initiative is not lost through
the limiting of individual production

last seen all were fighting well inside
the enemy lines.
Along the front as far as the eye
can see the big guns still were fash
ing and roaring last night, and the
battle gave no sign of diminishing.
Along one extended sector of the
Marine front the Americans were in
the open ground. The Germans were
on the hills on the opposite bank show
ering high explosives and gas shells
upon them. But the boys from the
United States wore gas masks crawl
ing at times on all tours.
Second Marine Battle Repeated.
In a measure they repeated today
the heOric deed of those who defend
tie Of the Marine. Southwest of Jaul
gonne the Germans crossed the river
with a rush and started to fight their
way south. The Americans and French
held up this advance so that two hours
after the time set by the enemy for
reaching his objective nine miles away
he was still far away.
While fighting in the open contin-
ued the American counter attack was
organized. Light artillery was hurried
into position. 1t concentrated a heavy
fire at short range and when the Are
had ceased the American infantry
dashed from cover and met the on
coming boche.
Huns Feared the Steel.
Machine gunners moved forward,
and lying on the ground poured a
stream of bullets into the enemy. The
fierceness of the fire brought the
Germans up short.
They would not face the steel and,
hesitatingly at first, finally broke
and fell back. Within three hours the
Americans had driven them two and
half miles to the Marine.

FINLAND TO REMAIN NEUTRAL

Big Force There.

London, July IA bill providing
for constitution in Finland has pass
ed its second reading in the Finnish
parliament by the narrow margin of
four votes says Helsingfors dispatch
by way of Copenhagen to the Ex-

Republicans have started an ener.
getic agitation against the bill and it
is not improbable, the dispatch adds,
that the Finnish government will have
to resign the majority in favor of the
bill is insufficient.
1t is stated that Finland intends to
remain neutral if serious conflict oc,

for the Americans.

With the American Army on the
Marine, July 16.-The German prison
ers captured in the counter attack by
the Americans at the bend on the
Marine yesterday, number between
1000 and 1900. They include a com
plete brigade staff.
Americans Command River
The fighting continues with fierce
intensity in this district, while the bat
tie RACES with equal ferocity on the
right, where the French are reported
to have delivered a smashing blow
against the enemy. From this sec.
ton of the battle front it appears that
the German offensive, at least for the
time being, has been badly shattered.
The Americans now command the
river front at the bend. At the left of
the bend the famous German Tenth
division has made repeated attempts
all day to cross, but all assaults have
been smashed by the splendidly di-
rected fire of the American gunners,
and not a single German had succeed
ed in getting over at this point up to
9 o'clock last night.
The American bullets piled up the
German dead on the opposite side OF
the river every time the enemy start
ed to cross.
No Match for Yanks.
Some American soldiers now in hos
pitfalls, who were in the thick of the
fighting yesterday agree that the Ger
man infantry was no match for the
american.
This is evidenced by the report from
all the American hospitals, there be-
ing only a few cases of wounds from
rifle and machine gun fire, while most
of the men are suffering from shrap-
mel wounds. Some OF these cases are
serious.
Hospitals Again Under Fire.

Americans are Praised
With the American Army on the
Marine, July 16.--The French general
commanding the group OF armies on
this sector sent congratulatory mes
sage this afternoon to the American
general commanding the forces which
beat back the enemy.
At o'clock this evening the Ger
mans were heavily Smelling the Ameri-
can forces, but were getting shell for
shell in return, and their fire seemed
TO be diminishing.
The VauX district is comparatively
calm now. On the American right
heavy fighting is in progress.
American machine gunners along
the river assisted materially in break
ing up the early boche plans, for they
stuck to their posts and poured deadly
streams of bullets into the enemy and
only withdrew when their guns were
so hot they could not be fired. One
group Of machine gunners happened
TO be in a place where the Germans
were anxious to erect a bridge, but
their efforts were fruitless.
Important Cities are Menaced.
Located back of the allies line east
of Rheims is the railroad which sup
plies the French forces at Verdun and
the Americans at ST. Michel with food
and supplies. In this sector, too, are
the important cities of Chalons, Eper-
nay and Bar lie Due, all three of which
are important supply centers for the
allied forces. The railroad was inter
rupeed to some extent by the German
advance to the Marine between Reims
and Chateau Thierry, but it is still 4
very important artery for the allied
forces.
The only other fighting of moment
reported from the front has occurred
on the Villers-Bretonneux sector in
front of Amiens, where the British
nave improved their positions.
