MINING REVIVAL
ON FOREST CREEK
Forest Creek, May 27. (Spl)
Quartz mining is enjoying a
revival in this district with two
mills being installed and at
least one other planned for the
near future. Mark Winningham
and his son Bill, assisted by
Mr. Nelson have a small stamp
mill operating on their "Mys
tery Light" claim on property
recently purchased from the
B-H Dredge company. On the
Duggan property managed by
Joe Broad, William and Everett
Swartz are installing a small
Gibson mill which they expect
to have in operation as soon as
a water supply pipe line is com
pleted.
J. R. Conrad has been grad
ing and repairing the Oregon
Belle mine road preparatory to
opening operations there.

World war battlefield of Yprer,
The new onslaughts were
aimed at separating French,
British and Belgian armies
estimated at between SOO.000
and 1.000.000 strong already
encircled by the Nazi plncer
movement.
To the south, along the
Aisne-Meuse river sector, the
French reported that their 75's
(3-inch guns) were taking a tre
mendous toll as German infan

the allied lines.

confirmed reports that complete
companies of Nazi Infantry
were wiped out, the French
said.
Bodies of Germans were re
ported "piled high" between
the lines.
"The first rush of the enemy
has come almost to an end,"
said French General Duval.
The British air ministry said
Royal Air force bombers bat

Belgium and Holland.
A German drive centered on
Menin, on the Belgian-French
border 35 miles northwest
The German high command,
meanwhile, declared that Nazi
troops had captured Calais,
likely SDhnsboard for the at
tack which the Nazi regime has'
worn to make on Britain. The
allies maintained Calais still
was in their hands.
At Berlin, the death of Prince
Wilhelm of Prussia, oldest son
of former Crown Prince Fried
rich Wilhelm, from a wound re

The French acknowledged
the loss of Boulogne but de
clared the German advance had
made no considerable progress
for 48 hours. There was a new
note of optimism in the attitude
of the French high command.
