I CAMP LEWIS NOTES I
CAMP LEWIS," Tacoma. Wash..
June""!;. Camp Lewis officers haTe
received instructions from Washing
ton to prepare approximately 12.000
new men to come in the June draft,
it was announced today. The men
ar scheduled to leave their local
boards during the five-day period
starting Jne 24.
What states will send troops to
camp this month could not be learn
ed today. Whether the Dakotas and
Minnesota would be included this
month as they were last was not
known to officers of the depot bri
gade where the new men are quar
tered. California and Oregon did
not send men here In the May contin
gent of the draft and officers here
have not been notified whether these
states wfll be represented this month

camp last month, the largest move
ment to camp of draft men la many
months.
The last of the new draft were
sent through the mustering office
thi morning and definitely accepted
or rejected from army services. The
percentage of rejections were slight
ly higher than In the preceding
month, this being due to the -closing
of the limited service detachment
to men found unfit for general ser
vice. The rejects s averaged sev
en and a fraction per cent, which i
considerably lower than the average
last fall when the firrt draft men
came to camn.

taries, announced today at Y. M. C.
A. headquarters, gives the association
Its biggest camp personnel since the
onening of the work here last fall.
Eighty-l)or secretaries are now on
duty in camp.
The big number Is due largely to
the demand for secretaries for for
eign service, a large number of the
men now in camp expecting to go
overseas among the ten a month to
be sent from here. They will be
given preliminary training in huts
here.
The personnel boards of Tacoma
and Seattle .are to meet in their re
spective cities tomorrow afld exam

as it was begun.
A Hie Improve Pvmitions.
The allies even 'have been able
to improve their positions at -some
points.
This was the case between Corey
and Longpont today. Here the op
posing lines run along the edge of the
forest of Villers-Cotterets. Into which
the Germans are trying to obtain an
entry. In the meanwhile the Ger
mans have assaulted several times
unsuccessfully. From this vicinity
they have been bombarding I .a Ferte
Milon, but have been unable to break
1own tbe barrier of allied resistance
and have been subjected to very
heavy losses. Their objective seems
to be the envelopmnt of the allied
troops occupying the bulge, or forc
'ng them to fall back.
The allies, however,, are holding
firmly at both ends for the present,
despite their inferior numbers, and
the German push appears to hav
reached an obstacle which the enemy
Mnds difficult to ovrcome. '
EFFORTS OF IH XS REPELLED
PARIS. June 5. All the efforts-of
the Germans to advance in the
French sectors have been repelled,
according to the war office announce
ment tonight. Gronnd has been re

The text of the statement reads:
"During the day the enemy at dif
ferent points renewed his efforts to
ldvance, but was everywhere repuls
ed, with serious losses. An attempt
to cross the Oiae near Montagarhe
completely failed.
"North of the AUne oiir counter
attacks regained ground rear Vin
gre. We raptured more than liO
prisoners and some machine guns.
"In the region or Longpont the
Germans who had succeeded in mak
ing some progress around Chavignv
farm were driven out. leaving in our
hands about fifty prisoners. Every
where el.se our positions were main
tained. "Our viators were very active in
the while fighting zone. On Jnne 4
in the valley of the Savieres our
bombing) esradrille dropped more
than seventeen tons of projectiles
on enemy concentrations, which were
completely dispersed. On the night
of the fourth about fourteen ton of
explosives were dropped o the rail
way stations at Fisraes, Fere-en-Tar-
denols. Rove and Dohaln. .
- "Four enemy machines were
brought down and two captive bal
loons burned. An enemy machine on
a grand model, having four motors,
was brought down on the night of
June 1 in the region of Nanteull le
Haudouin. Its crew of eight men
was made prisoner."

an enemy raid this morning in the
neighborhood of Moorlancourt, we

fery activity there is nothing to re
port from the British front."
ItlSiTIOXS ARE STABLE.
LONDON. June 5. (British Ad
miralty, per wireless press.) The
military correspondent of the British
wireless service writes as follows
concerning the operations on the
western front:
"The situation in the Alsne sec
tor may almost be said to have reach
ed that position or stability to dis
turb which would require the intro
duction of some new factor. All
operations of the last 24 hours have
had only local or tactical signifi
cance, and, in the balance, have been
as much in favor of the allies as of
the enemy. Tow points are especial
ly noteworthy. The appearance and
successfully operation of an Ameri
can unit on the Cha.Xiu Thierry
front, and the considered expression
of confidence published by tbe allied
supreme war council."

Another Group of Americans
Put Up Fight Behind
Hun Lines
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. June- 5. American ma
rines wrote another glorious page in
their history Tuesday night and
Wednesday morning in beating off
two determined German attacks on
the Marne battle. Last night they
wiped out a large enemy patrol, this
morning charged and captured en
emy machine gnna and this after
noon killed many of the enemy and
took prisoners.
The Germans concentrated large
forces before Veuilly wood and be
gan a mass attack. They were mown
down by the American machine gun
ners and the attack was broken up
before reaching the American line,
the Germans fleeing In confusion.
The marines are fighting like Tro
jans, and have no desire for sleep.
Arter inflicting heavy losses on the
enemy last night they almost anni
hilated an enemy patrol this morn
ing. Tbe outfought the German ma
chine gun position this afternoon,
killed seven Germans and captured
a Wounded German.
The story of how the Americans
aided the French in stopping the
German advance at Chateau Thierry
Is a most remarkable one. The reg
iment which bore the brunt or the
fighting bas had a glorious career
dating back to revolutionary days.
Although it is now composed mostly
of newly enlisted men, many of whom
had never been under fire, it arrived
In France and marched direct to the
battle line from Its training camp.
The regiment's fire was so deadly
that (they broke up an entire German
formation and drove orr the enemy In
conluslon. Their French comrades
say Ihey showed the greatest skill
and accuracy while under fire.

with hand grenades into the enemy
ranks. The German were disorgan

American artillery deluged the Ger-

Make I Hiring Rewrne.
Two American lieutenants, both
from Tittsburg. played conspicuous
parts in stemming the German ad
vance along the Marne. Lieutenant
Walter R. Flann?ry was the first
American decorated with the French
war cross for participation In the
present great battle. Lieutenant John
T. Bissel. a West Tolnt graduate,
commanding two machine gun units,
was the first American to cross to

Spaulding Car Shortage
IT. G. Holt of the Spanlding com

that has ben holding up tbe produc

is now putting out about 0.000 feet

The company is supplied with la
bor for the time being, the scale f
wages established by the joint ac

high enough to satisfy tbe laborers.
The lowest price now paid In tbe
larger camps Is 40 cents an bonr,
this being the rate of wage for. Ja
panese roustabouts and whistle-boys.
From this-the schedule runs all the
way up to 90 cents an hour for men
who are performing hazardous or
