no serious effect.
1t developed from the character Of
the fire and from an examination OF
gas shells which failed to explode
that the Germans are using new
type OF gas protector. The she'll. or
canister, is about twenty-four inches
long by six inches in diameter. The
range of the protector is some 400
yards greater than those previously
in use.
Two hundred Of the new shells
which fell between the advanced post

Americans Raid Twice.
WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
IN LORRAINE, September 22.-Amer-
lean troops made two successful raids
on the German lines northeast of St
Mihiel early this morning. taking
of Haumont and five prisoners south
east Of Charey. Both raids were pre-
coded by barrages.
Patrols from the region of Haun1ont
reported that at least forty Germans
from the Charey region estimated
that the barrage killed at least a
score of Germans.
The prisoners taken southeast of
Charey were machine gunners. the
Americans capturing two heavy ma
chine guns. At Haumont the Ger
mans were captured in dugouts where
they had taken refuge from the stiff
American barrage.
The Germans answered with their
artillery along the American line.
The first American barrage began
soon after midnight. The other start
ed at o'clock. Both continued for

tered Haumont, where the Germans

that the Germans were continuing to
dig in. Another patrol reported enc
my trenches and numerous machine
gun emplacements south of Donmar-
tin.
When the American barrages had
started the Germans apparently be-
lieved that another offensive had
opened. and filled the sky with rock
cts and signal shells. The heavy she'll
ing apparently caused confusion in
the enemy front, because after the
first barrage 1t was more than twenty
minutes before the Germans replied.
WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
IN LORRAINE, Saturday. September
S1.-Gernan airplanes were active
last night in the region between the
Moselle river and st. Benoit. northeast
Of st. Nihiel. The forward areas were
bombed practically all night.

REPUBLICAN,
DENIED BY ferris
Chairman Says Democrats in
Congress Have Best Record
on Supporting War.

Reply to republican criticisms on
the floor Of the House last week is
made in a statement by Representa-
tive Scott Ferris, chairman of the
democratic congressional campaign
committee. ::
He says the claim that the election
of q republican Congress In November
is necessary to insure a vigorous
prosecution Of the war falls before
the facts" The record, he said, re-
veals that republicans in Congress,
viewed as a whole, 'have been OBJ
structionists," and that the democrats
have been "the reliance of the adj
ministration on war measures" -
Points to Republican Attacks.
ut is not necessary" said Mr.. Ferris.
ITO refer to the recent attacks of
Senator Sherman, Representatives
Rodenberg and Mason and others on
the President and his followers to
convince the country that the repub-
lican party, as at present organized
is a party of opposition rather than
party of support.
'1n the face Of recorded votes and
actions it is idle for the republican
leaders to assert that the republican
minority in Congress has been con-
structive. The contrary is the case. 1t
lican Spokesman to maintain that they
have shown more foresight than the
party in power. The record cannot
be disputed.
Claims Democratic Legislation.

ton, the shipping board bill, three

Says G. o. P. Delayed Ship Board.
'The shipping board, whose value

try and by all the allies OF America,

only twenty-one days-by republican

Dozens of war measures could be
cited to show how democratic sup

has kept the Administrations war
program moving"
| After reciting the vote on various
measures Mr.. Ferris said that unity
OF action in Washington is as es-
sential now as unity of military COM
| mand is in France. The democratic
party, he declared. will ask the return
Of a democratic Congress on its rec
! ord in support of the President and
