The British front east of Amiens on each side-of the
Avre and along the Nomine river, seems to be the storm
center of the battle front in France. Here the Aus
tralians, assisted by American detachments, surged for
ward on July 4 and drove the Germans out of the vil
lage of Hamel and the Vaire and Hamel woods, to the
south, at the same time launching a secondary attack
on the German positions north of the Nomine. Since that
time the lines before Amiens have been very active.
Germans Repulsed.

night received -word from President 1 J- 1 i mm vvui-.i iMli"lis w

port says mat the enemy was stopped easily but the Ger
mans claim to have checked the British forces east of
Hamel and to have thrown them back to their original
lines at Yillers-Bretonneux.
With the exception of aerial combats the American
front lias been calm.
The German official statement tells of British at
tacks in the Ypres region adding that these assaults were
repulsed. Heavy artillery fire in this neighborhood is
reported irom London.
French Hold On.
In the meantime the French have been content to holt
and consolidate their new positions near Moulin-Sous
Toutent and Autreches, northwest of Soissons, where in
two recent attacks the Germans suffered severe casual
ties and lost many prisoners. The .French war office says
that during the day there has been heavy artillery firing
in uie neignnornooa 01 uutrv and JUont Gobert. which
is on the front southwest of Soissons, where the French
won ground by a dashing attack last week.
Italian forces operating near the mouth of the Piave
have continued to make progress in recent fighting and
have taken more than 400 prisoners as well as, a battery
of cannon and many machine guns. In the niounfain re
gioa thJtalians have extended their lines northwest of
Monte Grappa and have repulsed desperate counter
attacks by the Austrians against positions taken from the
enemy in the Italian drives a week ago.

Plan IloceH.
Leaders In both houses tonight went
ahead with plans for u recess late to
morrow night until August 12, and It
was said that they would lie put
through unless the president tomor
row Insists upon Immediate passage of
the telegraph resolution by the senate.
After conferences with senute leaders,
Majority Leader Kitchen gave notice
In the house tonight that tomorrow
after disposition of the conference re
ports on the army and agriculture ap
propriation bills, he would offer a con
current resolution for a recess until
August 12.
The telegraph resolution was adopt
ed by the hpuse tonight by a vote of
-221 to four after a spirited debate In
Which democratic leaders said the
president had expressed a desire for
..Its passage at once and some republi
cans had charged that the authority
proposed for the president would be
used to further the interests of the
democratic party. To expedite pas
sage of the resolution the house pre
viously had adopted by a viva voce
vote a ruling limiting general debate
to two hours.
Goes to Senate.
The resolution will be sent to the
sanata ionimw-wlth leaders there
planning Its reference to the lrrterstnw
commerce committee for study and
probably hearing during the recess.
Regardless of the recess plans, senate
leaders said Its adoption by next Mon
day, the date for which the strike
of operators employed by the West
ern Union Telegraph company is call
ed, is not possible. Should the pres
ident insist tomorrow upon Immediate
action which leaders regarded as
said that undoubtedly the recess
would be delaped several days. Wide
variance of the views of senate and
house leaders on the president's po
sltion seemed apparent during the
day.
Chairman Pou, of the house rules
committee, told the house that .ho had
discussed the subject with Secretary
Tumulty and that the latter had in
formed him that the president desired
the house to adopt the resolution be

ROME, July 6. Italian forces oper
ating In the low lands near the mouth
of the Plave are making steady prog
ress, according to the statement Issued
by the war office today. In the moun
tain sector of the front the statement
says that the Italians have extended
their lines at the head of Calclna val
ley and have held the ground .thus
gained In spite of heavy counter-attacks
by the Austro-Hungarlans. The
text of the statements reads:
On, the lower Piave, having re
pulsed a violent counter-attack and
destroyed new centers of enemy re
sistance we have considerably extend
ed our lines to the southeast of Chls
sanuova and to the north of Cavaxue
eherlna. We have captured 419 pris
oners, In addition to taking" a battery
of six lOS-mlllinmetre Howitzers and
a large number of machine guns.
"To the northeast of Monte Qrappa,
Italian detachments after artillery pre
paration, penetrated Into the Austrians
positions at the head of Clcino valley.
The enemy replied with an Intense
artillery fire and launched an obstinate
counter-attack which developed into
hand to hand fighting. Ha did not
succeed however in wresting; from us
the advantages gained on Porto Dl
Salton heights."
"About thirty prisoner and five
machine guns were captured.
"On the Aslago plateau -we repulsed
two counter-attacks against Mont
Cornono and Sasso Rosso, engaging
the enemy In 'bayonet and hand bomb
conflicts In which ha suffered severe
losses. A British detachment sur

THOSE HONORED
WASHINGTON, July 6. General
Pershing today reported to the war
department that he had awarded dls-
adoptlon of a new policy by General tingulshed service crosses to the fol
Foch, supreme commander of the al
lied armies on the western front, in
the opinion of many observers here.
They believe the sequence of hard lo
cal blows that hvae been struck re
cently by French, American, British
and Italian troops shows that a new
phase of the great battle Is developing
which might expand into a major op
eration on any part of the front where
the situation was found favorable.
Reports of the recent highly sue
cessful strokes at the German lines
are taken nere to indicate that Uen
eral Foch no longer feels under the
urgent necessity of keeping rigidly on
the defensive in order to conserve his
forces for the expected renewal of the
Grman offensive. The fact that the
Germans have been completely sur
prised and overwhelmed by several of
the local counter operations Is be
lieved to be due to the work of the
allied airmen.
In both cases American aid has al
ready served to change the tide of the
fighting. The arrival of American
troops by the hundreds of thousands
has enabled General Foch to begin
harassing the enemy all along the line
while the increasing number of Amer
lean pilots makes possible concentra
tions of air forces that sweep enemy
scouts out of the sky ln the sectors
selected for military drives.
The American attacks around Cha
teau Thierry, the French operations
on the Soissons front of the Com
pelgne salient and the British opera
tions on both sides of the Somme and
in Flanders, probably were prompted
by the attack that the weakness of
the enemy at those particular points
had been revealed by airplane obser
vations Or as a result of raids at other
points. Quick advantage was taken
undoubtedly, for surprise blows where
German reserves were on the move.
