On Automobiles Begin
To Drop Back to Normal

President o. c. Toungblood. OF the
Oakland Auto Sales company. IS in
receipt OF a communication from the
North Texas Oakland company, an
nouncing a reduction OF 500 on all
Oakland models. In all probability re-
auctions will follow on other cars. and
while the prices which prevailed be-
fore the war will not be reached for
some time. substantial reductions will
doubtless be made as in this case. This
lets the price OF all Oakland cars drop
back to prices existing before Oct. l.
7 look for many to take advantage
OF this reduction" states Mr.. Young
blood, "as 800 these times-or any
other IS a very material saving.
With the known quality OF the Oak
lands and the reduction which goes
into effect Immediately, IL Is very
likely that the cars we have on hand
will soon be disposed Of"

Bapaume-Cambrai road the enemy
also attacked and then towards

was pushed in in the direction of

Aims to Shorten Salient
The British front in the area of
attack forms "A rather sharp salient.
If the enemy could pinch oft this
salient and run his line straight in
a northwesterly slant instead of hav-
ing it run at an angle first north
and then west, he would he able to
hold it with fewer troops. Also in
pinching it off he would hope to sur
round and capture q good number of

are his aims in the first stage of the
offensive.
The enemy is trying to repeat on
q larger scale the operation by which
he won back some of the ground we
gained in the battle of Cambrai.
Then he pushed in on an angle of
our front both from the north and

be checkmated as was the previous
one"
The eagerly awaited British Off
cial statement OF to-day. which was
expected to give further details of
the tremendous fighting indicated in
last nights reports, was read with
great satisfaction, in so far as it re-
Vealed that the enemy had been held

London, March p. 1t is not
yet possible to give more than
very general and vague idea
of the fighting Thursday on the
front between the Oise and the
Sensee which continues with
swaying fortunes, according to
the accounts of correspondents
at the British front in the morn
ing newspapers.
The German attack made on the
British front west and southwest of
Cambria evidently aims at recap
turing all the Hindenburg line says
a dispatch to the Morning Post from
British headquarters in France
which adds:
THE German Army attacking
south of the Scarpe seems to have
delivered its first blow principally in
the triangle of the Arras Cambria
and Bapaume-Cambr roads, while
the German Army south of Cambrai
is striking against our trench sys-
TENS in the region west of the
Scheldt canal. No doubt the enemy
hopes that the attacking forces of
these two armies may succeed in
forming junction and thus cutting
off n considerable slice of the British
front and taking back all the Hin
denburg trenches lost exactly four
months age"
Struggles for villages and ruined
farm houses continued throughout
Thursday, according to the CORE
spondent OF the Daily Mail.

For Western Front to ,
Observe German Attack
BY Associafed Prcst

London, March 22.-Emperor Will
liam, Field Marshal Won Hinden-
burg and General Won Ludendorff
have gone to the western front to
witness the German attack, says an
Exchange Telegraph dispatch from
Copenhagen. Bulgarian and Austrian
troops now are on the western front,
the dispatch reports.
The Bulgarian troops which have
arrived on the western front will be
used as strategic reserve, the dis
patch says. The number of Austrians
on this front is not large, but many
Austrian cannon have been concen-
trated there.
The Austrian war minister, Cen
eral Won Steiner, who now is in Ber-
lin, is said to have promised Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg that the
Austrians would take over the work
of guarding the eastern front when
the offensive in the west began.
