An even half dozen first-term mem

view Of showing them their, proper

and acquitted himself with high honors.
In regular turn each candidate was
called before the bar Of injustice and

Of the responses were as clever as
the scheme that actuated the move

Austro-German forces checked but tho
support rendered enabled the Italian
commanders to reorganize their armies
and again take the offensive.
Takes Immediate Charge.
Gen. Foch, it was thought, will as
sumo command of the allied armies
without delay. Changes in individual
commands are said to be unlikely. Of
fcers already in the fight are val
liable because of their experiences of
the last nine days.
@Fne' one. certainty in the minds of
administration officials as well as with
the General Staff is that a terrific
counter offensive will start imme-
diately, IL 1t has not already begun.
Last hour reports which reached the
War Department, through diplomatic
channels, told OF a movement on the
part OF French troops to retake Mont
didier which was captured by the Ger
mans on Wednesday. .
The apex OF the German line ex-
tended some three miles beyond Mont
didier in the direction of Amiens, ac-
cording to the last official reports.
Latest information was that the
French were fighting at the very edge
of the town again. This was taken
to indicate that the Germans had
been thrown back a considerable dis
tance in this vicinity. -.
The desire to regain Montdidier was
plain to the army strategists as it is
an important railway point and gives
access to one Of the main lines of
communication to Paris and Southern
France. 1t is next in Importance to
Amiens which was apparently the OBJ
jective Of the last thrust made by
the army Of the crown prince.
Army officials In Washington were
inclined to Joke at the expense Of the
Navy Department over the report
that Germany is now sending her
naval reserves to the front. An Off
cial said:
ut is not quite clear to me why our
navy and the British and the French
cannot find some way to keep the
German naval reserves occupied.
The information that Germany Is
running short Of army reserves was
regarded with much satisfaction.

OUSTED FROM
ALLEYS, MAY
FIND HARDSHIP
Mitigation Of Law Closing
J Up Dwellings Sought by
Senator Jones.

To reduce the likelihood Of hard
ship for the ten thousand alley dwell
ers who, by the operation OF a law Of
Congress. will be made homeless July
/. Senator Jones. of Washington, yes
terday., presented joint resolution
calling upon the District Commission
5ers. TO tell Congress what plans, II
any, they are making to care for
these people. Senator Kirby, Of Ar
kansas, objected to presentation Of
the resolution yesterday and 1t was
laid on the table, but Senator Jones
said last night he would again bring
his resolution up Monday.
Senator Jones last Thursday present
ed two bills which would provide for
the housing Of these alley dwellers,
and he Is pushing this resolution to
speed up action on one Of these bills.
Owing to the congested housing con-
ditions In Washington there Is a dis
position In some quarters to postpone
the enactment. Of the alley bill, which
would become effective July /, until,
after the war and 1t Is believed that
steps In this direction are contemplat-
ed.
On the other hand. as this Is a bill
which the late Mrs. Woodrow Wilson
had urged. many members OF Con-
gross would be loath to interfere with
its early enactment.
Senator Jones' resolution directs the
District Commissioners Ito advise the
Senate what proceedings have been
instituted for the opening, extension,
widening or Strengthening Of alleys
and minor streets in the city since the
approval Of the act, March Q, last
year" ...f
1t further asks, IL no steps have
been taken thus far to care for the
alley dwellers by the Commissioners,
that they transmit to the Senate their
contemplated plans.

Advised PershInE.
Col House reached Washington
Thursday night almost as soon as IT
mad become apparent that opposition
TO the plan of single control had been
abandoned. He was in conference
with the President several times yes
terday and after the appointment Of
len. Foch became known made this
statement;, 49,,
q Know Gen. Foch very well I
Ike him very much. l regard him as
a splendid general"
Emphasis was given to the sinple
statement from Col. House by a
smile which indicated profound sat
istaction with the choice which had
been made in leadership for the allied
armies.
1t was said officially at the White
Rouse that Gen. Pershing's visit to
Gen. Foeh in Paris at which the
Wnofe resources Of the American
arnyshed been placed at the disposal
OF the French commander, was In ac-
cordance with specific Instruction
from President Wilson.
It Is understood that assurances al

French official.
The consent Of Great Britain WAS
the subject OF extended conferences
IN London between Secretary of War
newton d. Baker and the British
government officials on Wednesday. 1t
Is not believed Mr.. Baker encountered
and serious, opposition as Field Mar
shal Sir Douglas Haig had previously
announced his willingness to fight OF,
under such leadership as the War
council or the heads OF the several
governments involved might choose.
Gen: t'oeh, It is said, is particularly
acceptable to the British because of
the success with which he manipu-
lated the French-English expedition
sent to italy short while ago. Foch's
generalship is said to have stopped
the onrushing Austrians far short of
their obtectives, even after the Italian
army had been thrown back in great
confusion.
The movement was accomplished in
record breaking time and is listed as
one OF the most conspicuous achieve
