and reserves are joining up. AS far a.
penetration goes, the Germans may be
expected to call halt at the Marine.
I'VE must now be prepared either
to see the offensive resumed in the
North at no distant date or else
to see German divisions from the
North sent down to exploit the new
success. Until the movements OF
reserves have been established, il
is idle to forecast The battle is
likely to continue for weeks and will
become a long drawn out struggle
of man power. The allies first duty
will be to economize their reserves
and husband their resources to give
ground for men where possible, for
the final decision will go with the
last reserves.
1t is doubtful IL more than half OF
the so divisions which we estimate
the enemy had in general reserve
have yet been absorbed in the present
battle. This means that half the ef-
fort is spent. II is to be hoped that
divisions engaged have been duly
punished as they certainly have
been around Rheims and scissors.

OF Iowa both Indicated their opinion
that an investigation was likely to
grow out OF the photoEraphinE Of
whiskey bottles in the office building.
Speaker Champ Clark refused to
believe members OF the House were
implicated. When shown a photo
graph OF the liquor bottles. he said:
Il never heard OF 1t. 1 know moth

little drinking among the members.

Il take the view that the record

House, when the Times informed Ssm

When told OF the photogFs phic evil

legislation will urge II all the more
strongly.

that he will prose- his hill for a

Congressman Randall said.
Il cannot express myself too strongly
on this matter. II we are going to have

MI. Randall was emphatic in say
ing there should be an official inves-
tisation. He does not doubt that
when it is disclosed to the people OF
the country that whisky bottles have
been revealed in large numbers in the
House Office Building there will be a
strong demand from them for an in
quiry.
Congressman Fcss Of Ohio. a strOI. g

should be Investigated by the House;
and II the facts are such as to bear
out the suspicious that naturally
arise, the persons responsible will BE
made known. More than that, dras-

Mr.. Fess said he believed the dry"
laws should be impartially enforced,

Magnificent Fight.

I'VE hear from London that the
three British divisions. the .Stn. 18Th.
and 50th. which held the line north
west of Rheims. put up a magnificent
hght and even Counte--a tackled
against vastly superior force. main
tanning all their positions on ihe first
day until darkness fell. when they
were obliged to throw back their lett
to conform with the witaCra val ii
the center. These divisions had been
sent TO this part OF the line Ter q
rest. and it is understood tEat they
sic now being replaced by freEh
troops.
THE allied stsffs have recognized
for long time, and II Is now obvious
10 all, that the American troops have
become a vital factor in this battle,
and may hold the balance between de-
feat and victory. and that It is only
by brigading them for training with
the French and British that they will
be ready in time to take their part
in any numbers this year. The cry
Is and will be for men. for more men
and for bayonets, and yet more bayo-
nets.
we arc told that the morale OF
the people both in Paris and in Lon
don is Unshaken by this somewhat
spectacular thrust OF the Germans
and its possibly fHr-reaching conse-
uUsnces. II is at such times that the
spirit Of the people at home means 4
great deal to the armies in the feld.
There are no criticisms and no recrim-
nations, but a united front and a de-
termination TO come out on top what
ever happens"
