GERMAN TALK OF s.KAISERS
BATTLE" NOT HEARD NOW

London, via. Ottawa, May sit is
noteworthy that with the lull in the
fighting since the German defeat at
Ypres all German talk of the "kaiser's
battle" has vanished. The German ex-
perts and newspapers have now been
instructed to warn the people that no
new Sedan is possible, that Ypres is
very strong, that the British have
fought most stubbornly and that, after
all, Ypres is not of importance for the
Germans. They declare that tine Ger
man command may decide not TO take
Ypres.
Sir William Robertson's warning that
the war is likely to last for a long
time yet is commented upon in London
as timely. 1t is pointed out that one
reason why American Intervention did
not soon become active in some fields
is because America made arrangements
for Intervention on an immense scale
and she realized that a successful Of
fensive against Germany might be nee
essary TO win the war.
The Times refers to a dispatch from
Washington stating that diplomats
anticipate a peace move and that nc
offer of mediation even from the Pope
will be considered Any proposal of
peace must come rom Germany. the
Times declares. and the allies will meet
any such move with the same unbroken
front as they met the latest offensive.

SPIRIT OF CONFIDENCE
FOUND AMONG ALLIES

Paris, via. Ottawa, May 3.-Henri
Bidou, the distinguished military critic
of the Journal des Debats, who has just
returned from the front, gave Reuters
correspondent here almost encouraging
account of the position there.
He says that the last time he visited
the front was just after the capture Of
KENNEL Hill. He found some gloom
over the possibilities involved in its
loss. but when he returned. he was
delighted to find a spirit OF the utmost
confidence among the allied officers
and men, resulting from the magnifi-
cent manner in which the Germans had
been held up.
Bidou says that Tuesday was splen-
did day for the allies, and graver for
the Germans than the loss of kemmel
Hill was to the allies. He concluded
that never before had he seen such
comradeship and mutual esteem among
the allies as since the beginning of this
great battle when the French and Brit
ish fought and died together.

Much of the success of the cam

(Associated Press Summary


Having met with reverse in opera
tions on the northern side OF the Flan-
ders salient, Germans have turned to
the southern side of an angle in the
Allied lines of northern France. Thurs
day night and Friday, German artillery
had seemingly centered on line be-
tween Gfvenchy and Nieppe forest and
il may be the enemy soon Will launch
an attack against this vital section OF
the British line. While waiting for the
Germans to make the next move, the
allies have been active all along the line
and at Hangard and Villers Bretonneux
before Amiens, have taken tactical po-
sitions. One or these was hill eighty
two, the height which afforded good
observations OF allied communication
lines.
Whffea new German stroke on either
the northern or southern battle front
is still delayed, the French have taken
the initiative I'm the latter field and
delivered a. telling blow southeast OF
Amiens.
Attacking on III front OF more than a
mile between Hailles and Castel, Gen.
eral Petain's troops yesterday evening
drove the Germans from hill SO, an en-
inence or some ESQ feet overlooking
the Avro river and captured the wood
to the east and southeast, Immediately
BORDERING ON the Avre-
The ground thus gained is probably
mora valuable than any other of equal
area which lies along the entire Somme
line. It was at Hailles that the Ger
mans effected their greatest westward
penetration In their Amiens drive and
at Hill SO they were within less than
three miles OF the important Paris
Amiens railway.
Adding this new terrain to the other
high ground taken by the French fur
ther south along the Avre not long
ago, an excellent line OF defenses ap-
pears TO have ben taken up by the
entente forces in this region.
The positions OF the French at Han
gard and those OF the British on the
Villers-Bretonneux ridge preserve the
continuity OF the line OF commanding
ground OF virtually all the vital spots
north OF the Somme.
In the Villers-Btetonneux region, as
well, there has been further i'm
provement Of the entente position, the
French gaining ground in local fight
ing there last night.
The Germans still are holding off on
the Flanders battle front, and Ger
man newspapers are telling the public
that the high command may decide not
to take Ypres after all, as its posses
sion Is not important.

asm has been at white heat throughout

one of the gratifying reports receiv-
ed last night was telephoned to The
Journal office by Chaplain Bogue of
Fort Barraneas giving a total of $4,000
contributed by the officers and men Of
Fort Barrancas.
The splendid showing made by the

also been matter Of much comment,

Praises Eseambia County.
One of the banner achievements of
the third Liberty Loan campaign in the
Sixth Federal Reserve District, and one
that has been the subject Of repeated
comment by the directors of the cam
paign at Liberty Loan headquarters is
the showing made by Escambia county,
Florida.
With a qucia of s47i 300 allotted to
the county, total subscription of
s6i6.o 900 was made at the very begin
ming Of the campaign, before work was
fully under way. The committee for
the county had such a superb organlza-
tion and the loan had been so thor
ouehly advertised that large proper
tion of the people of the community
We're ready to respond to the call the
moment the books We're opened.
The most favorable action by the
committee, according to w. C. Ward
law. chairman of the Sixth district Lib
erty Loan executive committee, has
been the way in which it has contin-
ued its, excellent work. Not content
with going over its quota by more than
% per cent on the first day, it has kept
steadily at its campaign raising its to-
tai subscriptions day by day.
1t is very probable that at the close
of the drive on May 4. this county viii
be one of the banner counties Of the
district. 1t has already been an inspi-
ration to all the workers who have had
the general direction of the third loan
in charge.
Frank T. Welles, chairman of the
Escambia County Liberty Loan com
mittee has been the director of the
campaign. and it has been due to his
unsual executive and organizing ability
that the fine results have been accom-
plished The city Of Pensacola has
every right to feel gratified over the
showing of this committee
