He then proceeded to give a review of the general situation. “The latest phase of struggle,” he said, “is the Austrian offensive in Italy. It is part of an in- tense offensive which has been carried on along the whole battle front. Our enemies are right in thinking that a great success gained on that front would have far-reaching, perhaps de- cisive, results on the general battle front in France. For that reason the zeneral suspicion that the initiative came frop: Berlin, rather than from Vienna, 1 believe to be justified. “Our advices from Italian headquar- ters are that the enemy has not se- cured in three days the objectives which they had hoped to obtain the first day. “And it is also true to say that no offensive on this scale throughout the whole war has at its initiation secured so little success. “There is no doubt that our men and the French troops are giving a this great italians have been fighting throughout with the highest courage and the most marked tenacity. The Italian higher command has no fear of the result. The danger is not yet over, but the BALTIC Johnson Twins—Car and Wheel Collide— Company’s Houses Being Painted, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest E.

Car Strikes Wheel. While driving a large autotruck through Railroad street Tuesday at 12 o'clock Ovila Dupont narrowly es- caped seriously injuring a boy, Me- mid Weschamp, who was riding a bi- cycle out of the avenue from the She- tucket worsted mills. Dupont was traveling toward the norttern part of the village and as he approached the avenue the boy on the bicycle turned to the left of the highway and steered his bicycle directly in front of the machine and crasned into the mud- guard, throwing the rider into the air and causing a damage to the bicycle. The boy was thrown into the air and landed on his side He zained his fest, picked tp his wheel and started toward the Shetucket Worsted Mills, where he reported that he had been knocked down by a passing au- tomobfle. Dupont \said Tuesday evening that he was traveling at about six mfles an hour when the accident occurred.

ANEASY WAY TO BANISH PIMPLES If ‘you are troubled with pimples, blackheads, acne, barber’s itch, blotch- es, freckleg or other skin disease or hlemish, now is the time to get rid of it with Hokara. This pure and simple skin healer is being introduced in Norwich by Lee & Osgood Ce. at the low price of 3¢ for a liberal sized jar, and they have sold hundreds of treatments. It contains no grease or acids, is cleanly to use and is a true nourieh- ment for the skin, cleaning and clear- ing it in every pore, making it soft, white and beautiful. If Hokara does not do even more than is claimed for it and give perfect satisfaction, return the empty jar to Lee & Osgood Co. and they will re- has fund your money. If you have any skin trouble, you cannot spend 33c to vetter advantage than for a jar of ‘his skin food. — government can express admiration and gratitude to the Italians for the share they have taken in the general struggle.” Spgeaking of the western front, Mr. Bonar Law. said that DBritish and French headquarters knew the posi- tions to which the German divi ns were being sent before the commence- ment of the offensive on March. He admitted that the attack had attained an amount of success which had caused the utmost anxiety. “But,” he added, “tnre¢ months have passed, and although the battle is a continuous one, we can look back upon what has happened with some confi- dence. " | “In this whole campaign the Ger- mans have had before them three great objectives. One was Paris; an- other was the channel ports; the third was not only the defeat, if they could achieve it, of the allied army, but the breaking of the communications be- tween the British and French forces. Although the allies have had to give much ground, not one of the enemy’s strategic objects has been attained. “The offensive of March twenty- he continued, “has brought about of command, which results have Jjusitified. The long continued battle must be a question of reserves. The great source of allied reserves is Anierica, and -it is undoubtedly part of the German scheme to use up the al- lied reserves before they can be rein- forced from America. But in this they have not succeeded. “I wish it were possible to tell the house the number of troops which since March 21, have been sent from this country to strengthen our own forces. It is a large number, but, as 1 have said, the main source of the al- lied reserves is America. “Necessity has made possible what seemed impossib! The American troops are not coming; they have come. America isn't coming into the war; she is in it. “I am sure that every member of the house realizes and is delighted to know that the American troops have been fighting and have justified the high hopes which every one acquainted with the character of the American people formed of what the fighting value of thees troops would be. “Of course, I cannot give you num- bers. But the best way of making the house realize how big the change has been will be to read an extract from the minutes of the last supreme war council: “'Thanks to teh prompt and cordial co-operation of the presifent of the United States, arrangements which have been set on fcot for the trans- portation and brigading of American troops will make it impossible for the enemy to gain victory by wearing out the allied reserves, before he has ex- hausted his own.”’ The references to | first, America were loudly cheered. The submarine menace-a year ago appeared to be the greatest danger the allies had to cope wth, the chancellor said, and was regarded by the Ger- mans. as 2 means to victory. All that was now changed, he declared. The shipping figures, which would be pub- lished this week, would show that the world's ship construction for the 'first time exceeded the destruction. There was no chance whatever, so far as hu- man foresight could divine, of the country being starved into submission, and that consideration had an import- any effest on the military position. Mr. Bonar Law again referred to the unending stream of American troops coming across the water, and said it would continue until the whole man power of America, if necessar would be thrown into the scale. Wha had alreadv been done and had been arranged for showed clearly that the extent of American military co-oper- ation on the battle field of France would not be limited by transport, but only by the number of trained men available. That was the great fact of the pres- ent vear, and thus had the German| hope of nullifying American help in the war been a mistaken hope.
