U.S. PLEASED AT ALLIED ATTACK American Army Officers Im pressed at Plan of Brit ish-French Armies Washington, Aug. 1. The British- French assault on the German right flank has made a profound impres sion here, because in the Judgment of many American army officers, it is di rected at the most vulnerable point on the entire German front. Complete success for the allies, sweeping' the German line back from the sea along the entire Belgian coast, would be an immediate answer to the U-boat warfare. The main North Sea bases for U-boat opera tions would be stamped out. Behind that achievement then would stand the possibility that the entire German line in France could be endangered by > a flank attack. Reports from London or the front were still too meager last night to disclose the full scope of the new op ei at ions. Some observers here were inclined to believe, however, that un less the drive is supplemented by Naval co-operation, with a landing be ; hind the present German front, com plete success is not to be expected. Itmlit Flunk the Weak Spot The discussion here brought out strongly the fact that many American of fleers who have studied the situa tion believe the German right flank offers the only real opportunity to bring the struggle to a decisive issue in a single campaign. Short of that, they can foresee only j a continuing repetition of the deadlv I business of frontal attack, which in I time would wear down the German resistance, since the allied Powers j have tlie greater resources in men I and supplies How long the wearing I .process would require no of- I ficial is willing to suggest, however, and it is pointed out that if U-boat activity is not sharply checked, time will work strongly agair.st the allies. Recent German operations have produced tho impression among some observers that the assault upon the right flank has been expected by the German General Staff. The surprise attack some time ago upon a small sector of the British front, which swept the allies back beyond the Yser canal, materially strengthened that sector lor the Germans. In the renewed German assaults up on the \ erdun front observers have read also an attempt to prevent an allied concentration upon the right flank. * Might Urine Ilollnnd In P loma tic quarters, however, the verdun attacks are coupled also with the German advance in Galic'ia to furnish the stage setting for the renewal of peace suggestions through tbe German ancl Austrian Chancellors i le P, urp ?, s '' nf the new .offensive produced the suggestion yester day, J J^ hat . if , , the aied ' front could be extended to the Dutch fron . the Netherlands Government might join the allies. Recent reports 11°'." .£ eut^ al sourt 'es have indicated that the Germans feared some such action by their little neighbor. Cabbage Crop Enormous; Make Sauerkraut, is Plea j Washington Aug.

MAY PROSECUTE SLACKER GROOMS Quitters Are Guilty of Misde meanor, Declares Gen eral Crowder Washington, D. C., Aup. 1. —Be- hind the petticoats of a spouse ac quired for the purpose of evading draft will be no safe place for a quitter to hide. The young men who have thronged to marriage licens bureaus since July 20, in the fond hope that the government would look upon them as exempt, probably have taken the trouble for nothing. They may even have committed a misdemeanor and be liable to prose cution. If this is so, their war brides, as aiding them in the misdemeanor, also will be liable to prosecution. Provost Marshal General E. H. Crowder. aroused to-day by the re ports of throngs of men of draft age invading the marriage license bureaus in the larger cities, made this per fectly plain. He announced: "By section of the act of May 18 (the conscription act), any person who evades or aids another to evade the requirements of this act is guilty of a misdemeanor; and local boards are authorized to warn persons who claim discharge on the ground of marriage contracted since the date of the act that both parties are liable to prosecution under this provision if, in fact, the marriage was con tracted solely with intent to evade the performance of military duty." May Amend Returns "If necessary," said Secretary Baker to-day, "we will ask the Presi dent to so amend the returns to get at these slackers.

The statement of the provost mar shal general concerning draft mar riages was mads In response to the query of a New Jersey local board on a case in point. "Marriage is not of itself." General Crowder replied, "a valid ground for making claim of discharge." "■A. man, whose wife is mainly de pendent on his dally labor for sup port, may claim exemption on that ground. But dependency is a mat ter of fact. The rule does not ask: 'ls the husband, as a matter of law, liable to support the wife?' It asks: 'ls the wife as a matter of fact mainly dependent on the daily labor of her husband for support?" Promise Careful Query "Only the exemption boards can determine this fact. Where depend ency is claimed and the circum stances show a marriage hastily con summated since July 20 by a man whose number is high on the avail able list, the actual fact of depend ency must be closely scrutinized." It is further pointed out that the exemption boards have the widest powers of determining this actual dependency. .They are not bound by legal rules of evidence. They are to investigate and decide in their own way. "The law was supposed," said Sec retary Baker to-day. "immediately upon its passage, to lay its hand on the shoulder of every American of the ages specified and warn him of his liability to serve. The men who have endeavored to incur disabili ties since that time will be most closely scrutinized." WILSON CABINET FACES A SPLIT Redfield May Resign as Re sult of Row With McAdoo Washington, Aug. 1. A Cabinet row that has been brewing for some time has broken with full force upon official Washington and bids fair to assume such proporitions that at least one resignation may result. Sec retary Redfleld, of the Department of Commerce, has become so aggrieved at the course pursued by Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo that he is pro testing vehemently, and the Presi dent may find it necessary to inter vene. as he did in the Denman- Goethals row. McAdoo will not resign. His fam ily connections with the President, to gether with his well-understood po litical aspirations, make the sugges tion unworthy of consideration. But Itedfleld has been the subject of numerous resignation rumors, and this contest may result in the sever ance of his official connection with the Government. From the beginning of the war and even before there has been friction between the Treasury Department and the Department of Commerce, which culminated recently with Mc- Adoo winning in the plan to provide insurance for the soldiers and sailors. Both departments wanted control. Carried into effect, this insurance plan, intended to take the place of the old system of pensions, will have great political potentialities. Mc- Adoo's friends are grooming him for the Democratic Presidential nomina tion in 1920, and a Presidential can didate could not wish for a better political asset than the disposition of millions of dollars of Insurance and Indemnities for disability to soldiers and their families. The Mnti M ho Did the Work Edwin F. Sweet, Assistant Secretary of Commerce, is credited with being the first man to work out a soldier.? insurance plan. He went at It at the! instance of the Council of National Defense, got together the data and made a report to the council. Later the President, at the suggestion of interested citizens, passed the subject over to Secretary McAdoo with the request that he take the subject in hand. This was done and a scheme worked out. Now the Department of Commerce declares the Treasury De partment has appropriated Mr. Sweet's ideas, worked them over and taken not only the credit that is due the Commerce Department, but also the Jurisdiction which It had hoped to have. Secretary Redfleld and Assistant Secretary Sweet feel very keenly their disappointment, and while they will not be interviewed on the sub ject, their expressions to friends in private conversations are such as to show the tense feeling that exists be tween the two departments. In a bul letin Just issued by the Treasury on soldiers' insurance, credit is given to Mr. Sweet, along with others, for as sisting in working out the plan. Aside from this brief testimonial, the Treas ury takes all the glory. Damaged German U-Boat Interns in Spanish Port By Associated rress Madrid. Aug.

Gangs of new workmen reinforced by eighty three carloads of material descended upon Camp Meade yesterday and smoothed out many wrinkles in Major Proctor's brow, with the arrival of additional manpower and fresh sup plies considerable irypetus was inject ed Into the task of constructing one of the largest cantonments In the country by September 1. Castiron pipes formed part of the new material. These pipes are to be used for the water and sewage sys tem. At first it was thought this commodity was about extinct. Gov ernment officials had begun thinking seriously of constructing an old wooden pipe line. Despite the heat, skilled and un skilled labor toiled rapidly to unfold a modern encampment on schedule time. Already the post office build ing is completed and was open for business to-day. It is estimated that within a week carpenters will be turning out finish ed barracks for enlisted men in five working days. More mechanics and unskilled workers are needed before the full working force of 4.000 is up to its strength. Each day a new batch of workmen goes into camp. One of the largest laundries of Its kind ever built in this country will be erected at Camp Meade. Two Balti more men have just been awarded a contract by the Government to build a plant to take care of the laundry of the 40,000 persons expected to be in training at Camp Meade.
