LINE MUST BE IRONED OUT
American Strategists Hold Kaiser Is
Seeking to Gain Position for Big
Smash at French Capital or
English Channel Ports.
WASHINGTON, June 10. The new
- German thrust between Montdidier and
Koyon was regarded by officials here
as a local operation on a large scale,
with limited objectives designed to
consolidate the Picardy and Aisne bat
tle theaters and straighten the line for
later mass attacks either toward Paris
or the Channel.
The same object was sought in the
pressure toward Compiegne and Sols
sons and from Chateau Thierry. The
Villers Cotterets wood blocked the suc
cess of the recent movement and the
Germans are now trying to take the
defenders of the wood in the rear. If
they succeed it is regarded that the
' line thejr seek V establish would give
them a straight front from the region
of Montdidier to some point in the vi
cinity of Chateau Thierry.
Compiegne Important Center.
Compiegne is the distribution center
probably for the allied and American
forces holding the bulge in the battle
line that still separates the Picardy and
Aisne theaters of action. The new
thrust apparently is aimed at Com
piegne and if it Is brought under heavy
gun fire the security of the defending
lines north and east of that place
might be menaced. .j
WASHINGTON, June 10. General
Pershing's communique today reports

chine gun fire, broke down with severe
losses to the assailants. In this region
and in Picardy there was lively artil
lery lighting.
On the Marne sector the day was
marked by decreased artillery activity.
rAKis, Sunday, June 9. "We cer

ing compound of flour and water as
food.

"It is about time for the people

Such is the declaration contained in
a letter received by Julius L. Meier,

"Hope you are meeting with good

to our attention that the merchant

but It is hoped that the retail mer
chants will not fail to give the sup
port which their country needs and ex
pects from them.
The happenings of the last few
days have brought home to some
our people that this is no time for u
to fold our hands and sit back with

something for every one of us to do,

Permanent Economic and Military
Union of Germany and Austria
Hungary Suggested by
Von Payer.
LONDON, June 10. A dispatch to the
Times from The Hague quotes a neutral
who has arrived there from Germany
as stating that an epidemic of black
smallpox is raging among the- work
men of the Krupp plant at Essen. The
outbreak, which is causing four or five
deaths daily, is attributed to under
feeding and unsanitary conditions.
AMSTERDAM, Jine 10. Permanent
economic and military union between
Germany and Austria-Hungary, "with
the gradual' disappearance of customs
duties and frontiers," is proposed by
Frledrich von Payer, Imperial Vice-
Chancellor of Germany, in a statement
published in the Neue Freie Presse, of
Vienna, and quoted in the Vossische
Zeitung, of Berlin.
Russia Included In Scheme.
Included in this scheme of Mittel
Europa under domination of the cen
tral powers are Russia, Poland, Bul
garia and Turkey.
The Vice-Chancellor points out that.
with this union once effected, the peace
of Europe would be in the hands of the
Teutonic allies.
'Such co-operation, however," he add
ed, "is only to be thought of in con
junction with the maintenance of the
political independence of empires con
cerned, while mutual consideration and
united action in connection with ques
tions of foreign policy are necessary.-
"Political co-operation must be sup
ported by an understanding on mili
tary questions. If the states are bound
together by a treaty of protection they
must bear proportionately the burdens
of this protection and all would then
have an identical interest in the sim
plification and appropriate extension
of military institutions.
Lcmoi of War Cited. 4
"The experiences of the present war
have shown what similar training in
arming, equipment and supply system
mean in facilitating the conduct of the
war and what difficulties their absence
has entailed. The military authorities
would easily come to an understanding
of what is necessary In this direction.1

ITALIAN ARMY HEADQUARTERS,
Sunday, June 9. The calm before the
storm. This is the sensation felt by
those visiting the Italian front. The
question as to where the Austrian of
fensive will strike has not yet been
answered. Notwithstanding the fre
quent massing of troops, it Is suspected
that the Austrian commander Is count
ing upon springing a surprise, by rea
son of his present inactivity.
Aside from minor engagements men
tioned in the daily official communica
tions, and apart from the customary
thundering of cannon, this front, from
the high Alps to, the Adriatic, presents
a mose peaceful aspect, ranging from
the very trenches back miles upon
miles to fertile green fields and flow
ers and trees.
It ia a scene of apparent peace, with
war's tragedy marked only here and
there by ruined buildings, from long
range guns and air raids. The country
people go about their daily tasks, mar
keting their garden produce and taking
In the early harvest as If the danger

Railroads behind- the Austrian
lines In Northern Italy are be
ing rushed to their capacity night
and day in bringing troops and muni
tions to the front. A special system
of drills to prepare the Austrian sol
diers for assaulting positions has also
been put Into effect.
The Auslrians In the mountain dis
trict are under the direct command of
Field Marshal Conrad von Hoetzen
dorf. Field Marshal Boroevlc, commander-in-chief
of the Austrian forces
on the Italian front, is located In the
Piave River district. It Is he who last
year promised to deliver Venice to his
Emperor and Inflated air raids upon
churches and monuments In that city
until the Italian aerial pilots destroyed
the effectiveness of the Austrian
raids.
It is known that the enemy is mak-
ng strenuous efforts to prevent de
serters from reaching the Italian lines
carrying information of troop disposi-
lons. Heavy rewards have been of
fered for the shooting of deserters.
Behind the Italian lines the aspect
of the country is peaceful. 1 Children
are seen fishing in the canals and
streams or playing upon the great
highways leading up to the front.

Senators admitted that some of the
questions might have been construed,
in strict court parlance, as leading.
Senators Suspect Politics,
At the conclusion of the Inquiry some
of the Senators adhered to their orig
inal belief that General Wood has been
kept from lending his valuable military
experience and his executive force In
handling troops to the American expe
dition In the great world war because
of a "mixture of Army and National
politics."
With regard to the Army bill. Sec
retary Baker Is said to have asked for
several appropriation increases.

General March, chief of staff, is to

ment be added to the bill authorizing
the President to appoint two Major-
Generals "at large" to provide that
rank for Generals Crozler and Sharps
nd to clear up the present situation
by which General Crozier -retains the
title and rank as head of the ordnance
bureau. although serving on the war
council, with a subordinate as acting
chief of ordnance, and by which Quar
termaster-General Sharpe has been sent
to a Southern post- with an "acting"
Quartermaster handling the bureau.
The committee, it was said, was fa-
vorbly disposed to the plan presented.
The bill s provision giving the Presi

ROOSEVELT PRAISES WOOD
General's Preparedness Advice Re
ferred To In Address. '
ST. LOUIS. Mo.. June 10. Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt, in delivering an
address before a large audience here
tonight, added to his set speech, a
tribute to Major-General Leonard
Wood and demanded the death penalty
for proved traitors.
"If the United States had followed
the advice of Major-General Leonard
Wood two or three years ago," Colonel
Roosevelt said, "there would have been
2,000,000 men prepared when war was
declared and i under arms. Russia
would never have been broken and
peace would have been declared within
90 days after the United States entered
the war."
Regarding traitors, the Colonel said:
"Every traitor In the United States
should be 'Interred.' not 'Interned.'
Mercy to the traitor Is cruelty to loyal
men. Weakness In dealing with trai
tors is disloyalty to our men. at the
front."
In urging a united Americanism, put
ting every ounce of strength back of
the Army at the- front. Mr. Roosevelt
declared that any man who did not
think enough of America to fight for It
was not an American.
He urged that Congress provide in
the future that immigrants be provided
with the opportunity- through night
schools to study English and if In five
years they did not avail themselves of
this opportunity to send them back to
the country they came from.
Mr. Roosevelt had passed the day in
his hotel, all social affairs having been
abandoned because of advice of the
Colopel's physician that he conserve his
energy. It was stated that he would
complete his speaking tour.
