AS the Men.

WILSON OPPOSED
TO CHAMBERLAIN
MILITARY BILL
President Says Need of General
Court Martial Does Not Exist IT,
At Present.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April %
President Wilson has come out
strongly in opposition to the Cham
berlan bill, which provides for the
trial of sedition cases by court mar
tial. In a statement made to Sen
ator Overman today, the president
said that he believed the measure
unconventional and that should such
law be placed on the statutes,
it would put Americans on a level
with the Teutons. He declared fur
there that the measure is opposed
to the spirit and purpose of the es-
poinage law.
The senate committee, to which
the Chamberlain bill was referred,
has been urged by military intelli-
gence officials to give their support
to the measure. Judge John F. Nc
Gee, a member of the Minnesota
public safety commission, also ap-
peared before the committee and
declared, among other things: GIVE
US military court, or when the
casualty lists come back and crepe
hangs on the doors of American
homes, we will have a state of an
archy in this country"

AMERICANS ARE ATTACKED

With the American Army. April
22.-Twelve hundred German shock
troops, the largest force thus far
ever sent against the Americans,
hurled themselves against the Ameri-
can positions yesterday, along a
mile front, northwest of Toul. The
attacking forces, which greatly out
numbered the Americans, succeeded
in penetrating the first line trench
es and taking the village of Seiche-
prey. The raid was preceded by a
heavy bombardment, in which gas
and high explosive shells were used,
and was accompanied by furious
hand to hand fighting.
The Americans fell back a kilo-
meter and then, without reinforce
ments, launched an attack which took
the Germans completely by surprise
and drove them to their own trenches
the village of Seicheprey being re-
captured by the Americans during
the second engagement. Three of
the Germans were captured and
many of them were killed.
During the German attack, enemy
airmen lowered over the American
positions, pouring shot into the
trenches, but anti-aircraft batteries
were brought into play and Ameri-
can flyers took to the air, downing
two of the enemy planes, and dis
persing the others. All of the
American machines returned unin-
jured.
Many of the Americans, in the
rear positions, begged to be per-
mitted to go to the assistance of
their comrades and those who were
sent forward, toward the end of the
battle, moved to the front in the
highest spirits.
