1 THE EVENING DISPATCH, JUNE 3, 1916.. AGE TWO I; GEfiKJ LINES IN THEWEST Says Gen. Cherfile, of French i Army; If Surprise Is Completer THIS FLEET MUST PLAY PART. Trouble Has Been Lack of At- tack of Sufficient Scope And .V: Density. -London, June 3. That the German lines: in , the . west can be broken if the surprise is complete and crushing is the statementmade by General Cherfils of. the French army in an ar ticle published here today. General Cherfils says: r 'Naturally tire German failure at Verdun has reopened the question of the possibility of taking the offensive on. the Western front, and the matter ; is being eagerly discussed in French military circles. "One school maintains that it is im possible to take the offensive on the Western front, now so strongly forti fied on either side." I have already pointed , out that" surprise must nec essarily be one of the decisive ele ments. Nevertheless I think the view that the German lines in the West can not be broken is an erroneous one. "The reason it has not been done up to the present is that no attack has been made of sufficient scope and den sity with a large army held immediate ly in reserve to at once exploit the success obtained by the original at- tack. .... . . ; . ."Never before in war has surprise played a bigger role than in the pres ent great struggle. It was the effect of the., surprise o nthe. river Dunajec which delivered into the hands of the Austro-German 400 miles of. Russian territory. "Surprise almost succeeded in the original German attack upon the for tress of, Verdun, and it was the sur prise counter-stroke "of Gen. de Caste lnau, who quite unexpectedly brought up a new French army, which turned the original German success into ulti mate defeat. ... "If the 'Germans completely aband on their .efforts in the region of Ver dun, the ymay be expected to attempt a ,new surprise at some other part of the line. .Where wil 1 they attempt it? To carry out a surprise, attack will re quire an accumulation of men and ma terial difficult to hide from the Allies.- ;.: . "At present the chief German con centrations in reserve are on the Western, front? particularly opposite the line, held by the British army. Whatever may be the intentions of the enemy, they are exhibiting activity at many points of both the Western and Eastern fronts, and it is difficult to divine their 1 motive. -' "On the Russian front Hindenburg has delivered in the Lake Narotch re gion an attack with six divisions, re capturing some of . the positions, re cently taken b ythe Russians. ''At the present moment, however, the Germans on the Russian front are holding their linejwith only one man to. each yard of front, and they have . no reserve of any consequence in the east. ... .. . ' "Of course they might transfer their big. reserves in France -and Flanders to Lithuania, but even if they scored a temporary success there- they would again be promptly stopped by the huge mass of the Russian Empire. ,-If the Germans. w.ereto . employ their , reserves against the Allied line in the West I am inclined to think that., they would -: throw them -against the . British right , wing, at the : point of junction o f the British and French armies. . "They have employed these tactics before, it. is true ?andi unsuccessful ly, but it is always .well to be com pletely on our guard," - ' Opening Dance at 1umina tonight Don "Richardson's orchestra Adv.

Reports received here from Denmark conflrnr the earlier rumors that the new constitutional law adopted in that country will go into effect on Monday,-and a general elec tion under its provisions will be held in July." Premier- - Zahle - announced last fall that the. government intend ed to put the new constitution in force on.; June 5,, 1916, -waiving the right to propose a prolongation of the old constitutional law owing to the war. , According to correspondents for the German and other continental papers, the Danes are preparing for-a new era in government . It .is declared the constitition which was v unanimously passed by the Parliament a year ago, and promptly signed ; by Kfng; Chris tian is by far the most democratic in Europe. ;- That this reform was accomplished in the . midst of a world war In whicb the reactionary forces of every coun try, are seeking b yppen and secret means to wipe . out all progressive movements, was a surprise. ; The rea son tor this action is found in the fact that during the last three years the conservatives : had presented no less than eleven amendments to the constitution, each more . reactionary than the Other, and had been over whelmingly defeated on all of them. At last they saw the .light, : and , realized that the day of political privileges in Denmark had gone forever. The party then made its twelfth, proposal,; which was at once recognized by the- other parties as furnishing: the foundation upon which it was possible to build. It is conceded in Denmark. that it was by no means the love of demo-: cratic reform, co-operate for consti tutional reform. The new constitution is hailed in Denmark as the opening up of new paths for the, development .of freedom. The fundamental fact that all political privileges which were formerly bound up with the ownership of land or capi tal have been abolished under the new law, and that universal and equal suf frage has been granted to all men and women 25 years and over in age, show the : democratic character . of the new constitution. . The lower house is to have a mem bership of not more than 140. It has 114 at present. ; The membership of the upper house is increased from 66 to 72. The life of the lower house has been extended to four years instead of. three as 'before, land of the upper house to eight instead of. six. . Hither to the age limit for, the lower house has been 30;. it is now reduced to 25, making all voters eligible. For. the upper house, the qualification age is left at 30, with the provision that it will be reduced one year at each suc ceeding election until the age of 25 is reached. Hitherto the upper house had had the control of dissolutions of parlia ment .and could thereby force the lower house to meet its will. Now, under certain conditions, this power falls into control of the lower house, thus transferring the center of gov ernment to the more popular body. Twenty-two seats in the lower house will be distributed among the various parties according to the votes which they obtained, but for: which they did not secure representation, in, the ma jority elections. ... In this manner, a party which may not have ' sufficient votes in any one district to secure an election will be .'insured .. of .representa tion in parliament. Parties having a very large majority.: in : any one dis trict may . count their superfluous votes toward securing additional representa tion in the general ticket. It is also provided that all election laws to the lower house may be amended at any election. This opens the road wide to any advance that may be desired In the future.

' L,onaon, June 6. riosuie suonia- rines have been sinking each week about 60,000 tons of shipping with the regularity of clockwork and the consequent scarcity of tonnage is causing the Englishmen to look for ward to a food crisis rn this country which is believed by many to be not far off. About $1,500,000,000 worth of food has to be brought to these shores every year. In normal times, with thj help of neutral shipping, the Brit ish mercantile marine can just about manage it. But not so now. The un derwriters view- is that the odds against making a safe passage are more than ten times as great as be fore th-o war, and with the increase of enemy; submarines, so the odds in crease, neutral shipping becomes more and more shy of entering Brit ish,, waters, and food becomes scarcer j and d'iarer. ; Estimates of the 1916 crop in eign countries are not; encouraging and the Question is raised as to whether the foreigner is in a position to supply the demands here even, if conditions were normal. The follow ing shows the decrease in wheat land estimated by the International Agri cultural Institute for 1916: Canada, 14.9 per cent.; United States, 11.9 per cent.; and France, 8.6 per cent. In other countries the decrease is said to be in the same proportion. Although every effort has been made to remedy the situation by giv ing up all available land to crop rais ing, the British Board of Agriculture has been hampered by lack of labor. True, thousands of women have re placed, men called Jo the colors, but the board finds that they are not suf ficient to utilize the land to the full. CHICAGO DUPLICATES N-Y. PREPAREDNESS CHICAGO DUPLICATES . (By United Press.) Chicago, Juno 3. A prepareduess demonstration equal to New York's gripped Chicago today. It was the prelude to a series of big events which threw this city in the world's spptlight of news, for the next ten days. Nearly a quarlor of a million Chi cago men, women and children, it is estimated, marched today in a pa rade to arouse the nation to prepar edness. Sober-minded men and wom en bankers, politicians, society wom en, clerks, shop girls from all walks of life who want peace but not "at any price," marched. There were 50,000 marchers from the United Young Mens' Clubs alone. One feature of the parade was the suffragist section. Another was the motorcycle- section, in which several thousand motorcyclists rode their machines. ; ,. . .. One hundred, and. eighty . union chauffeurs, offered their cars, without charge to anyone desiring to take part in the parade.. The steel mills In South Chicago and Gary, Ind., sent 5,0 0 men.

NEED MORE BOOTHS. Congestion at Polls Becoming ous This Afternoon. Seri- Owing to the fact that there ap pears a possibility that the sun may set. before all voters will . have time to cast, their ballots, by reason of the long time it takes to prepare, the votes at that particular primary, it has been suggested that the board of elections have additional booths in- j stalled in order that the voting may be facilitated. Should voters be pre vented from voting by reason of con- i gestion at the polls much confusion and dissatisfaction will result.
