HAIG'S ARMIES
 POUNDING HUN
 LINES TO PIECES
Enemy Staggers Under Continued Blows-In
 Confusion at Places.

With the British Army in France, Aug. "A. (By The Associated Press.)- Field Marshal Haig's fighting armies achieved further victories today. They delivered blow after blow to the staggering enemy. who in some places, such as the Thiepval salient, was reported to be in state of great confusion.
 Thepval itself, mighty position atop comparatively high hills from which the surrounding country for miles is under observation has been occupied by the British forces, and the British line has been strengthened between Grandcourt., north of Thie- pval, and La Boissele, to the south.
 There has ,been extraordinarily hard fighting in this locality. D
 Miramon1, the bOche position has held but for days in the center of the battle front is gradually being surrounded on all sides.
 The town is choked with German dead, and many living Germans may be captured there shortly.
 In the advance on Bapaume, the village of Avesnes-Lez-Bapau just at the edge of the lorger town, has been reached.
 It seems certain that Bapaume will fall at an early date, but more heavy fighting is expected here.

Captured Officers Say Ger many Willing to Give

With the British Army in France, Aug. "A (By The Associated Press.)- Stil fighting a losing battle, the Ger mans are unquestionabaly becoming disorganized and ratled.
 Officers who have been taken pri- soner have mentioned recent reverses and especially defeat which is now being suffered and said that Ger many was willing to give anything for peace.
 These statements are of Value only as showing how the German army is coming to look upon the war now going against them.
 New German divisions continue to arrive ill the zone, onl yto be stood up before the advancing British and moved down.
 While they have been able to check in measure the allies, they have been unable to stay there continuous forward movement
 There are stories of less than doz- en men being left in some of the Ger man companies which haave partici- pated in the recent fighting. Soldier prisoners captured today expressed themselves generally as having lost faith in the high comand, while some of the captured officers attributed the defeat to the inefficiency of the Ger man air service, and more especially to the presence of many untrained re- cruits in the old divisions.
 Some are said to have deserted while on the way to the front to par ticipate in this battle

Washington, Aug. 24.-America's $ aircraft program for the great army that is counted upon to win the war next yeor calls for $50 complete squadrons of planes, and the main part of the program alreaday is ahead of schedule three thousand pilots trained.
 This information, given by Major Kenly, chief of the division of mili- tary aeronautics and many other facts hitherto held secret, were dis closed today when the senate mili- tary committee made public testi- mony taken behind closed doors dur ing the thre months of Investigating
 William c. Potter, assistant director of airplane production said General Pershing had called for 25,OOO planes by July l, 1919, and had been told 1t was proposed to deliver 18,00O to 10000.
 This would meet replacement de- mands of squadrons in the field.
 10000 Almost a Miracle.'
 c. w. Nash, former president of the Nash Motor company, and now assistant to MT. Ryan in engineering and production gave it as his opinion that nothing but De Haviland ma- chimes could be delivered before next January and if 10000 airplanes were delivered.by next July it would be Gal most a miracle"
 General Kenly and other officials in fact all of the witnesses apparently gave their statements with hat sena- tor Reed characterized at one stage as brutal frankness," all being exam ined secretly and apparently without considering the possibility of the pub licity now given.

 In response to questions General Kenly spoke of what he would do if here iii charge at home and aboard, and added: s
 "If you lcok over the cables-you could find cable from overseas asks for one thing one day, and on the next day countermands the order, and then the next day asks for it gain, and week later countermands it."
 There is no real friction between the army and navy, General Kenly told the committee except a Every strong feeling that the navy some times is getting more than it's share"
 General Kenly and ether officers confirmed reports that General Per shing stopped manufacture of Spad machines last year and recently had criticized several of the De Haviland models forarded.
 In outlining next years program sent in by General Pershing, wit nesses told the committee that Gen. eral Pershing was advised that in trying to get 18,00o or 10000 ma chimes delivered by next July, the authorities "are aiming rather high"

LIMITATIONS REMOVED
ON HOME GROUND WHEA!

Effective today, Georgia farmers
may take me-grown wheat to the
mill and have it ground into -four with
out limitation as to amount, provided
they do so with the intention and un-
Outstanding that the -four will be used
by them under the conservation regu-
lations of the food administration.
The original nationwide order of
the United States food administration
provided that farmer who raised his
own wheat would, in taking it to mill
for grinding be limited to a 80 days
supply of -four at one time, based on
six pounds per person in his family
When that order was issued there
arose considerable complaint in Geor-
gia from the fact that, though this
state has never been a wheat producer
for profit, the people of the country
had been requested to grow enough
to feed their oyn families. DR..
Soule, federal food administrator for
Georgia, appealed to Washington for
relief, explaining the peculiar situa-
ton in Georgia
