Marshal Haig Is taking advantage o.
the comparative lull TO strengthen hi
lines in various spots.
Both north and south OF the Somm,
and on the Lys battle front, the British
defensive positions were improved In
loesl operations last night Similarly,
the Germans made an attempt 10 push
forward their lines in the Mesnl region,
north OF Albert, in which sector they
aSpartenly are preparing for some more
important movement. The British Of.
iered sharp defense, however, and
toiled the enemy effort,
ARTILLERY Fire Heavy.
Heavy artillery fire is in progress
on so many parts OF the front that
little indication Is afforded by this AZ
to the point selected by the Germans
for their renewed thrust.
There has been no new developed
region north Of Ypres, where the Bel
gIans stopped a turning movement last
week. preventing the British from be-
ing flanked out of the Ypres positions.
The nature Of the ground and the dis
position Of the opposing forces make
It seem probable that a repetition OF
the attempt is to be looked for.
Front Of Somme Watched.
The situation in the Somme region
Is being for the moment even more
closely watched than that along the
Franco Belgian border to the north.
Field Marshal Haig reports heavy
shelling of the British lines on both
sides Of the Sommc and the Ancre, and
the correspondents are sending word Of
German preparations for a movement
Of some nature between Arras and
Amiens, within which the region under
bombardment Is located The enemy
is known to have brought up some Of
the heaviest guns to the Somme battle
field, where Amiens is his objective, but
the entente artillery is matching these
and hamperng the Germans severely in
their preparations for attack

one of the sops thrown to the Ukraine
was to permit newspapers to be pub

Ukrainians went to the front still

not likely to receive from their peace

That the Ukraine will sell all her
products 10 the Central Powers rs one
of the peace conditions. Just how
Germany will get theee supplies
through war torn Russia rs a problem
and where she Will get her transpor-
