to another within any state must file a statement with the nearest em- ployment service office, of the num- Der of men transferred, the wages of fered and other terms and conditions of employment promised to the men.
 s. Employers who are permitted 10 use their own field agents for recruit ing labor must in no case use any fee-charging agency, or use any agents or labor scouts who are paid for their work on a commission basis.
 '. All advertising for unskilled la bor, whether by card, poster, news paper, handbilI, or any other medium is prohibited after August 1, 1918. This applies to all employers engaged wholly or partly in war work, whose maximum force, including skilled and unskilled laborers, exceeds 100.
 The government labor program will be extended to skilled labor as soon as the machinery of the Elm ployment Service is in adequate run- ming order. So far there have been restrictions on the recruiting of skilled labor except the unspoken law dSdlll5( Cduo1IlS IeSlleSSIl0So men already engaged in war work Or other essential industries to divert them to other undertakings. The federal employment bureaus will of fer every possible assistance to those who are seeking skilled labor.
 Employers of workers for non-war industries should not offer superior inducements or in any other way try to compete with government under takings to interrupt the flow of war essentials.
 Information concerning the viola ton of these regulations should be addressed to the local employment bureau where they are already es- tablished, or to Leo A. Korper, Fed eral Director for Connecticut, at his office at the State Capitol.

New Draft Will Strip Washington
 of Many Clerks

Washington, Aug. 9-The applica- tion of the work or fight rule in con- nection with the new draft ages sub- r mitted to Congress is expected to strip Washington of it's great army of men clerks between the ages of IS to 45. Only old men, cripples and women will be left at the desks of all departments and branches of the government.
 Manpower to be rebased under this rule which will apply to all industries as well as to government departments is expected to go into the essential industrials and thereby relieve for ac- tuaI military service in the line the men of the first draft age, .21 to 31, who have been given deferred classi- fication by virtue of being employed in essential work.
 The one and whole object of all laws and regulations relating to the draft from this time on will be to get men with guns in France, or ready to sail for the fighting front. The men for the army of 3,000,00O abroad and 100000 at home as reserves will be taken so far as possible from men of the first draft, and it is expected that thousands will be dismissed from uP@IiOIIo Io JoA4I IIi0 NOt ors, and their places taken by older men.
 All young officers, too are ticketed through to France, and will begin their Journeys within the next sixty days. It is expected that there win be clean sweep in every department of the government, and every able bodied young officer sent on active duty to France and the desk jobs that they have occupied will be filled by older officers by older or disabled civilians and by women.

NAVY HAS MORE
 RECRUITS THAN ARE NECESSARY
Sec. Daniels Explains Order to Stop Enlistments to the
 Correspondents.

Washington, Aug. 9.---Secretary Daniels discussed with correspondents the order stepping enlistments. With 10000 now at recruiting stations and training camps and another 25,OO0 at home awaiting call, he said the navy has an abundance of material Men enrolled up to yesterday will be ac- cepted, he explained, and these with the 25,0O waiting at home will be called to the colors when there is room for them in the training camps and stations.
 All recruiting stations may not be closed, MT. Daniels added, but their number probably would be greatly reduced and most of the men sent back to active duty.
 Since the man power bill was pro- posed to congress there has been a heavy rush to naval and marine corps recruiting stations of men who do not wish to be drafted. In many cases it is understood men of families and with large and important business in terests, have sought to enlist on the theory that eventually they would be dra fled into the army

London, Aug. 9.---The F'ranco-Brit- ish advance on the battle front has reached a front of Il miles according to news received here shortly after noon today. Advices from the battle front south of the Somme today report British cavalry. armored cars and tanks, in advance of the infantry, to have reached within a mile of the Chaulnes railway junction. The cavalry, tanks and armored cars 1t is indicated, have gone ahead to the line running from FTamerVille to Lhons.
 The total of prisoners captured is reported to have reached ten thou sand.
 From Idhons the line runs south ward to Meharioourt southeast of Ro- sieres. This represents a total max imum advance of Il miles.
 It will be impossible for the Ger mans to hold their Montdidier posi- tions, 1t is believed here. It also IS believed the advance on the Picardy front makes Amiens secure against a nenemy attack and has removed the threat against Paris.
 London, Aug. 9.---Fourteen thou sand prisoners and guns too numer- ous to mention have been taken in the British drive on the front south of the Somme says today's War Off, flee report. The cavalry still is puE- suing the enemy. The Allied progress Is continuing.
 The French have taken Fresnoy-en- Chaussee, while the British have reached a point east of Lequesnale and Caix.
 The Germans are evaculating their positions in the Lys valley on the Flanders front.
 Along the whole front the average advance of the infantry is from five to six miles.
 The British havoc aptured Morlan- court on the northern end of the Somme battle front, and the infantry line now runs from that point south ward to a point southeast of Moreuil This represents an infantry advance to the maximum depth of seven miles in the center along the Amiens-Chaul- ,nes-la-Fere railway
 On the Lys front the British now hold Locon, LeCornet-malo, Quentin Le Petit Pacaut and Lesart.
 Above Lys region, on the from north of Kemmel, the British carried out local operation last night 1T which their line was advanced some. what on a front of more than 1,O0( yards.
 The Germans put up a vigorous re- sistance north of the Somme, the statement shows, and there wa! heavy fighting between Chipilly anC Morlancourt
 Pressing the advantage dread gained in Picardy, the British an, French troops in smashing attack are forcing the Germans back towar the important Peronne- Rove road The advance Thursday was probabl the greatest in territorial extent b the Allies in one day since 1916.
 Amiens as a result of the fightin up to the present, has been almos entirely of the German menace an even the German artillery will hay trouble in reaching it. The i'm portant railway running north fror Paris through Amiens and parallel ing the Allied battle front can no7 be used again after being under tn kare of German guns for four months
 Ten thousand prisoners have bee &aken, according to unofficial report reaching Paris. The Allied losse FL thus far have been slight and tn oy IGermans have been slow and wea 1erlin counter attacking. The greates 90 enemy defensive asset-machine gu AAsnests-appears to have been var

The officers, he said are lending themselN es to the company in every way. The one question that Judge Burpee thought could be an- swered without embarrassment to the company and which Judge Foster had not agreed to answer, was as to the amount of insurance arried by the company. The form of order to be signed by Judge Burpee will be prepared by the lawyers in Bridgeport and then sent to Judge Burpee for signature, as Judge Foster said he wanted what was done as a result of the hearing of yesterday disclosed on the records in case the question comes up again.

well Squelched by the British tanks which swarmed through the German lines.
 Penetration of the enemy positions have been greatest south of the Somme to Plessiers. This is directly east of Amiens and F'ramerville, the farthest east reached by the British up to late Thursday, is seven miles from the Peronne-Roy road. North of the Somme the British have had to fight hard for their gains and the same has been true of the French advance across the Avre. Once across the Avre, however, the French moved forward rapidly. The Peron- ne-Roye road with its parallel line of railroad runs north and south, east of the advascing Allied line, which is bisected by the Amiens-Laron rail road. It is the main enemy com munication line. With this In al- lied hands, or even under short ar tillery range, the German positions north to Arras and south and east almost to Rheims would be in great danger.

 Four years of. effort. with our staunch allies; four years of trials stoically endured, begin to bear fruit.
