Tokio, Friday, June 21.—The news-
papers today report that as a result
of the deliberations of the advisory
board on diplomatic affairs Japan has
decided not to comply with the request
of the entente and to refrain from in-
tervention in Siberia at present.
In diplomatic circles it is believed
that Japan, unless directly menaced,
will not act without the support of the
United States.
ITALIANS IMPROVE POSITIONS.
By Associated Press.
. Now that the Piave line is again intact, the Italians have begun
operations on the mountain front looking to the further improve-
ment of the positions there. On the northwestern slopes of Monte
Grappa, between the Brenta and the Piave, the Italians have gained
considerable ground and taken more than 1,300 prisoners.
Italian attacks on the mountain front probably are for the pur-
pose of forestalling any intended enemy effort there as well as to
improve the Italian positions. Strong raids are being carried out
also on the Asiago plateau.
The Italian gain on Monte Grappa, however, is most important,
as the mountain is the key point to the terrain between the Brenta
and the Piave and dominates the hills southward to the Venetian
plain. It was on this height that the Austrians met with failure
in their attempt ten days ago to reach the plain from the north.
Entente Powers Will Continue Efforts
to Aid Her.
Washington, June 26.—Unofficial an-
nouncement from Tokio of the decision
of the Japanese government to decline
the request of the entente powers to
intervene in Siberia was not under-
stood by the officials here, including
the entente embassies’ staffs, as by any
means marking the abandonment of the
purpose of either the entente powers
or the United States to assist Russia to
rehabilitate herself and overcome Ger-
mah influence.
One high official said the action of
the Japanese board of advisers in re-
jecting the idea of a military expedi-
tion to Siberia at this stage, would go
far to strengthen the design of Rus-
sia’s friends to extend sympathetic aid
and support to the elements in Russia
Which are striving to re-establish law
and order.
Premier Lloyd-George in his speech
Monday at London declared England’s
willingness to aid Russia if Russia so
desired. This statement was accepted
here as an indication that England,
at least, among the entente allies, has
inclined to the American view that be-
fore any attempt is made at forcible
military intervention in Russia, or Si-
beria, Russia’s friends among the na-
tions should exhaust every effort to
place within her grasp such assistance
as would enable her to bring about an
internal reform which would develop
some responsible and permanent form
of government with which the entente
powers and America might co-operate
against German influence.

With the American Army in France, June 26.—-In an attack
upon the German lines on the Marne front last night the American
troops extended their line northwest of Belleau wood. Up to ten
o’clock this morning.216 prisoners had been counted, together with
a number of machine guns and other boothy. Additional prisoners
are coming in.
The Americans made an irresistible rush for the complete
clearing of the wood, in which it was discovered yesterday the
Germans were still occupying a small strip of the underbrush.
The attack was preceded by a thirteen-hour bombardment from
the American artillery.
German prisoners taken pay tribute to the brilliant Americans,
declaring the men in the assaulting party fought like demons.
The Americans now are in possession of virtually all the val-
uable tactical positions in the Belleau wood sector. Most of the
prisoners taken belong to the 347th German division.
On Sunday the Germans placed the crack 201st division oppo-
site a (portion of the ‘American line. Despite this the Americans
went through in steam-roller fashion.
The Germans also had attempted on Saturday to' fill the wood
with gas', but the determination and heroism of the Americans could
not be checked by the circumstance.
The American artillery again brilliantly carried out its part
in throwing the entire German line into confusion. Prisoners said
that the position from which they had been taken was like an inferno

PIAVE AGAIN IN FLOOD.
In completing the capture of the
western .bank of the Piave the Ital-
ians added 1,600 prisoners to the al-
ready large numbers taken from ■ the
enemy. While the sudden rise of the
river distressed the Austrians who had
crossed to the western bank, the river
fell during the enemy retreat, but again
has risen, hampering the Italian pur-
suit on the eastern bank. Apparently
the Italians have been content to hold
to strong bridgeheads on the eastern
bank rather than to attempt to pursue
the enemy any distance eastward.
Vienna officially places the Italian
losses at 150.000, including 50,000 pris-
oners. It admits the retirement across
the Piave from Montello to the Adri-
atic, but intimates that the Italians did
not press the retiring Austrians very
closely. In their efforts on the moun-
tain front, it is added, the Italians
were repulsed repeatedly.
Raiding operations continue on the
front from Switzerland to the sea, espe-
cially between Ypres and Rheims,
where further heavy fighting undoubt-
edly will take place. German soldiers
are reported as being depressed over
the Austrian defeat, and it is held in
some allied quarters that Germany may
hope of reaching a decision on the field
of battle, if the speech of Foreign Sec-
retary Von Kuehlmann is an indica-
tion. He declared that peace must
come through negotiation, and said that
the-appearance on European fronts of
soldiers from overseas had made this
necessary. The secretary could give
no idea of when the war would end.
His effort was received coldly by the
reichstag.
The official view in Washington was
that the speech was a peace move and
that Germany now invites proposals
from the . entente. It -is felt that the
move is similar to others which have
followed German or Austrian failures *
to bring back a quick decision in the
field.
On the other hand Germany still
moves forward in her conquest of Rus-
sia. It is reported that 3,000 German
troops have been landed at Poti, a
Trans-Caucasian port on the Black sea,
which has rail connections with the im-
portant centers of Tiflis, Batum and
Baku. Batum is in the hands of the
Turks.
trians found themselves, if pos-
sible, in a worse position and sus-
tained heavier losses.
A single episode shows how and
why the retreat started. On Sat-
urday the Austrian command sent
the Ninety-first Schuetzen brigade,
composed of regiments Nos. 31
and 32. with orders to widen the
Austrian breach at Lampol and to
do this at all hazards. The brigade
attempted to carry out this order
and fought like wild men, but the
Italian guns, which had been
trained accurately on the eastern
bank for some days.
On the Montello the slaughter
was terrific. Bodies of Austrian
troops were mowed down almost
in their entirety. On the crossing
at Nervesa both banks of the river
were strewn with dead and dying,
while hundreds of bodies were car-
ried down in the current to, the
sea.
At one place the correspondent
counted three hundred bodies while
walking a distance of half a mile.
One regiment of covering troops,
which originally was composed of
more than 2,000 men, had left Mon-
day but 88 men of the company,
and these were prisoners.

Washington, June 26.—After Secre-
tary Baker and General March, chief
of staff, had opposed revision of draft
age limits and announced that within
sixty or ninety days the war depart-
ment would submit to congress a new
and enlarged army program, the sen-
ate military committee today decided
to oppose any legislation to change
the draft ages.
Secretary Baker and Major General
March told the committee today that
they opposed as premature and unnec-
essary the proposed extension of the
army draft age limits.
Provost Marshal General Crowder,
whose approval of the extension has
been cited by advocates of the change
in the senate, also appeared before
the committee to say that while he was
not insistent upon immediate legisla-
tion, he thought action should be taken
in time to' secure new registrants un-
der the revised age limits early next
year.
In asking that the draft legislation
go over for the present, Secretary
Baker and General March said that
within sixty or ninety days, probably
about the middle of August after the
proposed recess of congress, the ad-
ministration will submit a new compre-
hensive army program, covering not
only the number of men it is proposed
to raise, but also dealing with ship-
ping and other problems.
“ENLARGED” PROGRAM.
Secretary Baker said an “enlarged”
program for the army is planned in a
formal statement made after he had
been closeted with the committee for
nearly three hours with his aides.
“I presented to the committee state-
ments,”, said Mr. Baker, “that for the
present there are enough men in class
One sufficient for our prospective needs,
and when the enlarged program of the
United States is ready for presentation
to congress we will at the same time
have complete data on which to base
any recommendations for changes in
the age limits of the draft.”

figures stating that in August, when
the final call on men in class one will
have exhausted that class, ther will be
3,300,000 men in the army, and that the

Washington, June 26.—White and col-
ored draft registrants numbering 124,-
525 Were summoned to the colors for
general military service in a call is-
sued today by Provost Marshal Gen-
eral Crowder. Mobilization will take
place at intervals during the month of
July, starting with the entrainment of
27,257 white selected men on July 5.
Today’s call, combined with that for
220,000 to be mobilized July 22-25 or-
dered by General Crowder last night,
and with the various special calls pre-
viously issued, will remove from civil-
ian life during July a total of 367,961
men, the largest number summoned in
any one month since the draft became
operative.
The call issued today is divided into
four sections for entrainment purposes.
From July 5 to 9, white registrants
numbering 33,259, are to be entrained;
from July 15 to 19, whites, 27,250; July
16 to 20, colored, 45,000; and from July
29 to 31, colored, 25,011.
Although the order issued last night
for 220,000 men probably will deplete
the present availables in class one, in
most of the draft districts, it was point-
ed out that the bulk of the men called
for July will not go to camp until
after the middle of the month, and by
that time it is said the additions gained
by reclassification and by the new reg-
istration of 21-year-old youths will be
available.

states in today’s call and the camps

-----Pledge The President-----
By Associated Press,
Amsterdam, June 26.—There will be
no further discussion of President Wil-
son's four principles for a basis for
general peace by Count von Hertling,
the imperial German chancellor. This
announcement was made by the chan-
cellor in the reichstag in the debate
after the speech of Foreign Secretary
von Kuehlmann. Proposal of a league
of nations after the war is not looked
upon with favor by Count von Hertling,
who intimated that such a league might
make it uncomfortable for Germany.
“-I originally had no intention of
taking part in this debate,” said the
chancellor. “The reasons for my con-
templated reserve are obvious, namely
the experiences I have had, together
with my predecessor.
“If we spoke our willingness for
peace that was regarded as a symptom
of weakness and our immediately im-
pending collapse. By others it was
interpreted as crafty traps.
“Did we speak on the other hand’of
our unshakeable will to defend our-
selves in a war of conquest so crimi-
nally thrust upon us, it was said that
it was the voice of German militarism
to which even the leading statesmen
must submit willy-nilly.”
“I went a step further on Feb. 24,
and expressly stated my attitude to-
ward the message of President Wilson
in which he discussed his four points
and gave, in principle, my assent to
them. I said that these four points
of President Wilson might possibly
form the basis of a general world
peace. No utterance of President Wil-
son whatever followed this, so that
there is no object in spinning any fur-
ther threads there started.
“There is still less object after state-
ments which have since reached us es-
pecially from America. These state-
ments indeed, made it really clear what
is to be understood from a peace league
of peoples or a league of peoples for
the maintenance of freedom and jus-
tice.
“Our opponents made it clear that
they would be the kernel of this league
of people and that it would in this way
not be difficult to isolate the uncom-
fortable upward strivings of Germany
and by economic strangulation to ex-
tinguish her vital breath. I consid-
ered it as against this, quite proper
that the foreign secretary make a
statement on the details of our politi-
cal position in the East from Finland
to the Black sea and in my opinion
he fulfilled the task thoroughly.”
"On the other hand,” continued Count
von Hertling, “some of his statements
were given a more or less unfriendly
reception in wide circles."
The chancellor said he would not go
into the question of the responsibility
for the war. “There are already tes-
timonies that Germany was not to
blame,” he added.
“I feel obliged to clear away the
misunderstanding which, it seems, we
obtained in the interpretation of the
second part of the state secretary's
statement,” he continued. “The ten-
dency of these utterances of the state
secretary was purely to ascribe the
responsibility for the continuation and
immeasureable prolongation of this ter-
rible war to the enemy powers entirely
in the sense I had indicated on Feb.
24, for it goes without saying there can
be no question of lessening our ener- |
getic defense, or will, or of shaking our
confidence in victory."
Stormy applause followed this utter-
ance by the chancellor.
“Now as before,” he added, "the
ruler of the empire, the princes and
the people stand closely and confident-
ly together. They trust in our incom-
parable troops, our incomparable army
leaders, and our united people, which
are unshakably standing together and
we may hope that the Almighty, who
hitherto has helped us and led us from
victory to victory, will reward this
faithful German people."
BLOOD THIRSTY AS EVER.
Regret was expressed by Deputy
Groeber, Centrist, that the utterances
of the foreign secretary were still as
blood thirsty as ever. He added:
“Nevertheless, I believe we have
passed the climax of international ha-
tred. German war aims offer no ob-
stacle to a truce of God."
Count von Westarp, Conservative,
said that the words of the foreign
secretary regarding the responsibility
for the war alarmed him and that Dr.
von Kuehlmann’s declaration did not
strengthen the will to peace.
“Abroad,” he continued, “they wiil,
o’clock Monday afternoon only 90
men of this brigade. The others
were either prisoners, wounded or
dead. The commanding officer
then committed suicide and the 90
surrendered.
Yesterday was the anniversary
of the battle of Solferino, in which
the French and Italian armies de-
feated the Austrians 59 years ago.
The victory was proudly emulated
by the Italian army in the present
fighting. In fleeing the Austrians
left behind them much war ma-
terial. The enemy troops even
threw away their rifles and de-
serted hundreds of machine guns,
which were to have been used to
protect the retirement.
It is estimated that the number
of Austrians on the western bank
I fear, regard it as a new peace offen-
sive. An appeal to the good will of
England is useless.”
Secretary von Kuehlmann made a
general reply to the criticisms raised
in the debate. He said the most diffi-
cult question in the conclusion of a
peace would be territorial questions,
and proceeded to deal in some detail
with the rectifications that would be
required by Austria-Hungary and Bul-
garia. Discussions between the two
central powers would offer no diffi-
culties.
The secretary referred to the diffi-
culties of settling the frontier ques-
tions between Turkey and Bulgaria,
owing to the sentimental grievances
left by the Balkan war and said that
| Germany and Austria had done their
I best to establish a compromise. The
sooner a compromise can be reached,
he added, the sooner a final transfer
of Northern Dobrudja to Bulgaria can
occur, and the better it Will be for the
interests of the entire alliance. He
added:
TURKEY AND BULGAR.
“The establishment of a compro-
mise between Turkey and Bulgaria
will require thorough deliberations be-
tween the allies. It would be very
’ pleasing if an agreement between Bul-
garia and Turkey relieved us of this
task.”
Regarding Rumania the foeign sec-
retary observed that criticism had been
evoked, because Germany had demand-
ed no war indemnity in money or in
the economic domain. Such an indem-
nity was not provided for in the in-
structions to the negotiators, added the
secretary, who continued:
“Rumania, has, however, under the
group of treaties submitted to you, to
render very considerable services to
Germany even in the way of money.
With a conscientious fulfillment of
obligations the Rumanian financial
position will be the reverse of bril-
liant and the Rumanian people will be
obliged to make serious efforts in or-
der to be able to meet these obliga-
tions. The objection that Germany is
not concerned is untenable, for we must
render it possible for the debtor to
make payment.”
There was an utter lack of enthu-
siasm in the reichstag debate, says a
Berlin dispatch to the Handelsblad.
Foreign Secretary Von Kuehlmann had
hardly begun to speak when it became
so dark in the house that the deputies
could hardly be distinguished from the
press gallery.
This atmosphere of gloom, it is added,
was symptomatic of the entire speech
and its reception, especially the for-
eign secretary’s reference to the pro-
longation of the war.

ber of men, however, could do
nothing against the Italian pres-
sure, despite continuous counter-
attacks.
The Italian official statement in
the past week has frequently em-
phasized the’cruel losses inflicted
on the Austrians. Among sixteen
, prisoners taken at one time on
Montello, for instance, it was ob-
served that they belonged to no
less than seven different regi-
ments. Prisoners report that seri-
ous losses were caused by the
Italian artillery, trench bombs and
machine guns. The Thirteenth
Schuetzen division is reported to
have lost 50 men from each com-
pany on the average.
France by that time is 1.450,000,
Secretary Baker, General March and
General Crowder, it was stated, all op-
posed the amendment by Senator John-
son of California proposing that in
future draft calls states which already
have furnished by voluntary enlist-
ments an excess over their quotas shall
be given credit for such excess. Senator
Johnson was satisfied with the state-
ment that the present system without
credits is fairest, and planned not to
press his amendment.
Chairman Chamberlain prepared to
make a statement to the senate in con-
nection with the amendments to the
pending army appropriation bill of
Senators Fall of New Mexico and Hitch-
cock of Nebraska which, respectively,
proposed making the age limits 20 to
40 years instead of 21 to 31.
“WORK OR FIGHT.”
When the war department’s enlarged
program is submitted, members of the
committee, which is virtually a unit in
■ favor later of extending the draft age
limits, also plans to prescribe by leg-
islation regulations regarding the
classes of men who shall “work or
fight." Such regulations, it was said,
probably would extend the “work or
fight” principle.
No definite figures on the enlarged
program were presented. It is impos-
sible at present, the officials said, to
give any accurate estimates, but the
government proposes to exert its maxi-
mum power in the war. Studies are be-
ing made of the problems in training,
