 TAKE ALLY LINE

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN Press)-An attempt to capture some British positions on the high ground east of Strazelle this morning met with a complete reverse for the enemy. The attack was local one and was pre- ceded by a heavy bombardment that began about o'clock and was main- tained with great intensity for a con- siderable time.
 At the conclusion of the artillery preparation the German infantry along narrow sector surged forward for the assault, but as they pushed up the incline which led from their own trenches to the more elevated British defenses they encountered such a tor nado of machine gun and rifle fire that, after struggling ahead a little they were forced to retire. During the night the British con- ducted a raid near Bucquoy with tanks which never before had been used for raiding.
 The big engines went over the top shortly before midnight followed by in ! fantry
 The riflemen were met with heavy resistance but the tanks proceeded on their business and for two hours 1 trundled about the enemy territory leaving the mark of their guns where ever they went. What casualties were inflicted on the enemy are not certain but the tanks did good execution. and prisoners were brought back 1 Two successful raids also were made | into German positions near Morlan- court during the night although this is not uncommon for the Australians. who are in this sector, are always bait l ing the Roche,
 On the Belgian front. King Albert's troops carried out a raid northwest of St. Julian that resulted in a hot fight at a concrete blockhouse. The Belgians stormed this position and cleared it out. capturing eight Germans, who ap- peared to be all the men left alive in the fort.

You see that wear the coat of the kaiser. i only wish that you could know the feeling that lies beneath it, for we are not going to stand this for ever," a German major told Miss Olga Wursberg of Grand Rapids, according Co her story on coming ashore. The conversation, she said. took place in a hospital at Godesberg, Germany. The officer talked freely not suspecting that she was an American. She quoted a private soldier as saying to her:
 Some day we are all going to put down our arms. Why should we fight? Our officers now. instead of leading us, go behind us with their guns at our back"
 Miss Wursberg is the daughter of Frederick Wursberg, Grand Rapids merchant. who was born in Germany and is a naturalized American. She has lived six years in Germany with her family She said soldiers in the hospitals convalesce very slowly be, cause of the poor food they receive.

He declared that nne- tcnths of the people desire intervention by Japan, with allied approval, to put an end to the chaotic conditions re- sulting from soviet control
 "The red guard is nothing but a band of thieves" said MT. Bernstein. "lt is not uncommon to see officers on the street relieving people of their Valuables. To protest means arrest and in Russia today a person who is arrested is usually shot before he reaches court of justice"

 REACH J. $. HOSPITAL
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

BALTIMORE, MT, June 23.-The first detachment of General Pershing's gassed and wounded men arrived at Fort McHenry hospital today. Among the patients is an infantryman who is suffering from mustard gas poison. He has not yet regained the full power of speech and can only talk in whispers He is Sergeant Hubert Hill, from Luf- kin, Texas.
 Private William c. Rowland, of Los Angeles, Calif., also was gassed. He is a member of the Seventh cavalry and was on detached Service with the ammunition train horse section at Foul.
 Private Charles G. Hopkins, of Madison, Texas. who was wounded last November at Foul, claims to be the first American wounded in action. Hopkins is an infantryanm.
 One night the Germans raided the American trenches and during the fighting Hopkins was wounded in the left arm. He kept on firing until the Germans had been beaten back.
 Sergeant Harry D. Marrell, of San Francisco, Calif., a member of the aviation corps, is suffering from a compound fracture of the left arm. Marrell was up five thousand feet test ing out a plane when the engine got out of order and the plane fell. The machine strengthened out when at an altitude of 100 feet The fact that it fell into a haystack saved Marrell from death.
