Italian Zone of War, June 20.
Baffled in his larger hope of a vast
encircling movement around Trevlso
and by way of the Brentn valley, with
his flrst halt at IJassano, the enemy,
while maintaining his nressure on the
mountain front and Montello district,
without, however, risking fresh infan
try attacks, Is redoubling his efforts
along the Plave, more especially west
of San Dona.
' The latest dispatch announces that
the Austilnn hold of the list-named I
Vicinity, also In the Zenson Hend and
at St. Andrea, southeast of Montello,
is being considerably weakened by the
Italian artillery lire and constant
counter-attacks.
St. Andrea Itself, with the adjacent
vllla'ges,of Vlavera, Bavaria and So
vllla; has changed hands ten times
over. The railroad running thence to-
ward Monte Belluna Is hidden under a VnnUnotA from ra 0nr

cial Dlar. announced last night an al
most unique fact In an offensive of
'this nature and undoubtedly the fruit
of Italy's immediate readiness for an
energetic reaction.
' Stupendous acts of heroism rare re
corded. Gunners of nn Alpine regi
ment stationed at the foot of Montello
Hill, after being twice driven from
their batteries, united themselves to
some stoim troops, fought the foe in a
hand-to-hand encounter with diggers,
and. recovering the cannon, readjusted
the breach locks, which thev had taken
nwav with them, and then filed point
blank into the adversary's ranks.
At Kagare two Hungarian battalions
were annihilated amid the ruins of
houses where thev had taken lefuge.
At Candelu an encmv machine-gun
corps, which had transformed the vil
lage Into a fort, was killed bv Italian
mountain artillery, and In the neigh
boring sector of Patettuol the Third
Austrian division lost 00 per cent of its
effectives.

"I have watched several of these at-

been filled with horror each time. They
ploughed forward tn serried ranks. The

It is the only way to assure
Delivery Note this Situation
For the third time since January our allotment
of Hudson Super-Sixes has been reduced. We
see with a continuation of the present active de
mand and the growing difficulties of getting cars
that a definite shortage will exist within a short
time.
That condition already obtains on certain Super
Six models. Production of those types has abso
lutely stopped because all the cars of their class
planned for this season have already been built.
The factory can supply no more until a new allot
ment can be brought through, which will be some
time in the Fall.
Why Hudsons Are In
Such Demand
The answer is clear to all who know automobile
qualities.
Men are choosing cars today they know they can
rely upon. Such attractions as - formerly have
accounted for the popularity of. some cars no
longer count for much, if the car has not also
demonstrated its ability in performance, and en
durance. Inquire u to the type of cars people are now buying. You
will find the active sale U of jutt two types those that are
very cheap as to price and from which no extraordinary serv
ice is expected and those that are of highest quality
Men are disposing of their okf cars that had; shows
limitations of endurance and performance in 4MaW
to get Super-Sixes. They know the importance iunaf,
the times ahead of having a car upon which they can rely;; ,'
