Field Marshal Halg's llrltlsh army has
lashed out again against the Germans de

In the sector of Vlllers-Gulslaln the Hrlt
Ish made powerful assaults last night, win

today. ,
(Villers-Gutslain Is between seven nnd
eight, miles fiom the German fortress of
Cambral.)
This was the second strong British blow
In the region of Vlllers-Gulslaln within a
week.
There were heavy artillery duels along
the front, especially around Lens at the
northern end of the Hlndenburg line. Both
British and German batteries In that re
gion have been re-enforced.
Since the British opened the joint drive
on April 9 with their assaults on the Arras
front the Allies hnve captured nearly 3fi,
000 prisoners and nearly 500 guns from tho
Teutons.
Losses of such magnitude have bee"n In
flicted on the German armies between the

COLONEL COULD ORGANIZE
DIVISION IN FOUR MONTHS
NRW YOIIK, April 20.
If the Wnr Department will nccept Coionel
Itoosevelt's offer to lend a division to the
Uuropean war'front hero's what the Colonct
can do:
Have a completely organized division of
23,000 men, Including Infantry, cavalry,
artillery, engineers, machine-gun detach
nvents and aerial corps, ready for active
service within four months.
In addition he has 100,000 reserves wait
ing to be called for service.
Requisitions are ready for every Hem of
mllltnry equipment for the division. These
requisitions can be presented to the War
Department within two hours nfter the
command Is oiganlzed.
Most of tho men who have volunteered
for the Colonel's division havo had previous
mllltnry training.
Here are Rome ot the men who, It wns
learned today, are ready to join the
Colonel's division:
Senutor .T. Hamilton Lewis, of Illinois;
Charles Jeiomc Bonaparte, former Attorney
General: Hoy O. Woodruff, Republican Con
gressman from Michigan; William Curtis
Farnbec. explorer; John M. Parker, Loulsl
ana, Bull Moose ramlldato for Vice Presi
dent In the last election; Medlll McCormlck,
Congressman from Illlnnlu; Jnrls Given

of Wyoming ; Dr. S. Kdward Young, Brook

(latter two offered services as chaplains) ;
Rear Admiral Wlnslow. U. H. N. ; Stato
Senator Hutchinson, Washington: Ran
dolph Hngermnn, Denver, nnd scores of
outers.
Many men, such ns Marcus B. Toncy, of
Nashville, Tenn., a Confederate veteran,
havo offered themselves for any service
they may perform.
No applicants under twenty-five years of
ago nro being accepted for tho division.
Officers havo already been selected, nnd so
gieat hns been the response that tho Colonel
could not only enroll a division ot 23,000
men, but has enough applicants to mako
three full army cot pa.
More than 25,000 negroes want to go to
the Kuropcan fighclni; fiont with tho"
Colonel. Tentative organizations have been
filled In several States. Toxns nnd South
Dakota nnd Arizona havo complete tegl
ments ready nnd drilling. Utah and Wyo
ming have regiments almost ready.
If the Wnr Department will not consider
Colonel Roosevelt as commander of the
division, ho would bo peifectly satisfied to
go as a subordinate olllcer with General
Wood In commnnd. Tho Cdonel would bo
content with command of a brigade, Thn
main thing with the Colonel Is that he
wants to go.
