Washington, June 28. The expected
offensive ou the west front i nearly
ready to burst forth again, according,
to Information reaching the war de
partment today.
Apparently it is being hastened by
the-Austrian failure in Italy and like
wise by Von Kuehlmann's recent re
mar,Y casting doubt on the Jnilitary
leading. , r ,
London, June 28 Heavy gun firing
was heard along the English coast
throughout lst night. The cannonading
which presumably came rrom the west
. front, was also audible In London. '
London, June 28. The Germans soon
will launch their final, Bupreme effort
it was learned from an authoritative
source today.
It is certain that a partial offensive
will be strted against the northern
portion of the British front. Where
trh main blow will follow is not known
but it probably wlU te between Eheims
aiid the Ardennes region, with, subsi
diary attacks simultaneously along the
whole front
If the new drive should fall In this
area, it would be straight southward on
a front of more than 75 miles, embrac
ing both Eheims and Verdun. The Brit
ish in th) Eheims region, the Ameri-Ci'-is
in the Verdun and Toul sectors
?fld the French between, would bear
the brunt of the b.'ow.
Austria's offensive power has been
broken and sho will be unable to re
new her Italian drive for a consider
able time, miles aid is furnished by
Germany. There are no indications
that such a!d is likely.
An Italian cauntsr offensive in ths
mountain area, on .a major scale is
due, it was declared.
In addition to the large forces of
Amer!c?aifl between VeiUun and St.
Mihiel and eastward of St. Mihiel
which would be involved in case the
-American ).el't wing were Included in
such a drive, it is probable .that a small
force of our men would be. in the exact
flentsr of the fighting.
Several weeks ago, American artil
lery was reported in action at Butte
Xu Meanil, northwest of St. Menehould
It is possible that this force has been
withdrawn, as wp-re the American units

WHEAT PRICE AT
PACIEICCOASTPORTS
REMAINMT $2.20
Telegram Received at Port
land From National Food
Administration ,
Portland, Or., June 28 The nation
al food administration intends to main
tain the present price of $2.20 on wheat
at Pacific ports, but may increase the
price of wheat at Now York "some
ten to twelve cents a bushel," it was
announced here today at the office' of
the Oregon food administration.
This information came to the Ore
gon administration in a telegram from
tho food administration at Washing
ton. The telegram stated:
"it U understood that tho shipping
board finds ithat the rate of $3.50 per
ton upon wheat from Pacific coast
Krts to the Atlantic has proved to
work out ait a lo, and that the board
ill find it necessary to advance the
raite. The matter is still under consid
eration. furthermore, the lmurance rates
on both fhipg and cargo have been trc
hnertilously advanced, and the insur
ance ra e on wncmt proiiufits have in
creased by virtue of submarine activi
ties on the Atlantic seaboard, further
increasing i;he -o.t of the sea haul
from Pacific northwest ports to Atlan
tic ports.
"The net result is that it may cost
as much as 13 cents a bushel more to
transport wheat from Paific norths
west ports to Atlantif ports than has
been contemplated. In the meantime,
the advance in railway rates may in
crease the pri"e cf wheat in Xew York
from ten to 12 cents a bushel.
"The fooi administration Sntends
to maintain the $2.20 price at Pacific
lertg despite the increased cost of sea
haulage.
"The in rencd price of wheat at
New York, owing to increased railway
rates, will more or less effect the in
creased ?a haulage cost."
