out the usual artillery prelude and as
the tanks and Infantrymen made their
way through the wire entanglements
and pressed Into the German first po-
sitions the surprised enemy began
sending up signal rockets calling for
asslBtanoe Seemingly the surprised
Germane fled In disorder leaving all

Is usual to ply the torch to villages
they evacuated

the tremendous shock the enemy has
concentrated between the Paive and
Brenta rivers In authoritative quar-
ters the correspondent was told that
the enemy forces delivering this blow
are In the proportion of three to two
as compared with the Italian forces
and this is virtually the relative
strength of the two wings of Brenta
where General Pcorl commands the
first Italian army and the right wing
along the Piave where the Duke of
Aosta holds the enemy as in a vice
Reports are coming In from the in-
vaded Venetian district of fearful acts
committed by the soldiers but this is
stated under reserve as It is impos-
sible at present to give confirmation

ALLIES NEED U S TROOPS
Lloyd-George Talks Plainly To Ameri-
can Commissioners
London— Prompt action by the
United States in sending to France

the allies' hopes of winning the war
are to be realized soon So Premier
LloydGeorge told the Americans and
British assembled here at the first
session of the war conference for
which the commission headed by E
M House was sent to England
The premier told the mission that
the collapse of Russia and the revers-
es of Italy made It even more impera-
tive than before that the United States
send as many troops as possible
across the Atlantic as early as pos-
sible The premier said he wished to rec-
ognize the eager earnestness with
which the people of the United States
are throwing themselves Into the great
task He expressed absolute confi-
dence that the great democracies
now marching shoulder to shoulder
will utterly overthrow the menace
which threatened the liberty of the

NO MORE SHIPS TO RUSSIA
Until Anarchy Is Suppressed and
Stable Government Established
Washington — No new shipments of
supplies will be permitted to go from
the United States to Russia until the
situation in that country clears The
American government before allow-
ing the export of goods already on the
docks wants to- know into whose

The cessation of shipments Is tem-
porary only if a stable government is
formed which the United States can
recognize If the Bolshevlkl gain con-
trol and pursue their program calling
for peace with Germany the embar-
go will be permanent A protracted
civil war also would work to keep the
embargo tight as the United States
then would fear that supplies might go
to the Bolsheviki faction
The provisional Russian govern-
ment wag given credits amounting In
all to 2325000000 of which $191000-
000 already has been advanced Much
of this money has been spent for sup-
plies now awaiting shipment and ‘the
Russians have been given vessels tor

French and the Germans also are ac-
tive along the Chemen Des Dames and
