Karon liurian. the Austro- I ■ ngarian Foreign Minister, made this statement in the H concluding rtion of his address to the Aus trian and Hungarian premiers Tues day, according to dispatches from Vienna. After declaring the allies would not succeed in their purpose of sow inu discord among the nationalities in the dual monarchy, the Foreign Minister said: Culls War Defensive "It is unnecessary further to char acterize this method of lighting.

FRENCH LOSSES VERY SMALL IN RESISTING HUN EFFORTS [Continued From Pago I.] tration of the French line of about six miles at Festigny, the most southern point reached by the invaders. A semi-official report from Paris reads: "While the enemy losses were frightful, ours were quite light, especially east of Rheims. If we were allowed to state the figure it would be most reassuring. Whereas during the previous of fensive, we had to send for reinforcements from other parts of the front, this time those pn the spot sufficed to sustain the shock. "This is partially due to the constant arrival of Americans which reduces the unequal proportion of the forces." Don't Let Soap Spoil Your Hair When you wash your hair, be careful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain mulsifled cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most ex pensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with wa ter and rub it in, about a teaspoon tul is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather,/ cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out! easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han dle. Besides, It loosens and takes out every particle ot dust, dirt and dandruff. Pershing Congratulates American Troops; Says Sacrifice Makes Example I/ondon, July 18.—General Perk ing has issued an order to the Amer ican troops in France, congratulat ing them on the successes which have marked their brilliant debut in the fighUng arena. "These divisions, subjected for the first time to all the most painful or deals of modern warfare, have in variably behaved with the greatest courage," says the order. "Their co operation with their brothers in arms, under the unified command waa prompt and effective, and their allied comrades speak in praile of J them. "The conduct of these brave sol diers and of their comrades who have made the supreme sacrifice by falling on the field of honor has established a model which each unit of the American Expeditionary Corps will strive to follow." HUX BOMB HITS SOLDIER ON FIELD AND HOSPITAL By Associated Press Paris, July 17. —Two German air plahes took part in the deliberate bombing of the American Red Cross hospital at Jouy late Monday night. A private from Philadelphia was struck by a piece of bomb at almost the identical spot on his back from which a piece of shrapnel had been removed a few hours previously. GERMAN OFFENSIVE BROKEN DOWN INTO LOCAL ATTACKS [Continued Prom Page I.] of the fighting is that the French, according to unofficial reports, have lost no cannon. Raids have been carried out bv the British in the Amiens re gion and to the north of Halluch. The German artJllery is said to be active, notably in the region around the "Arras-Lens salient. Throwing new forces into the fray to maintain the strongest pressure against the allies, the Germans have not yet captured important positions and on most of the front are being held in check. • The heaviest fighting continues along the Marne and on the plateau east of Rheims. Enemy progress on the Marne is slow and Franco- American forces have recaptured two towns and heights commanding the .bend in the river at Dormans, as well as additional prisoners. Apparently the allied resistance Monday was greater than the Ger man command had anticipated. The enemy has changed his tactics to strong local attacks at vital points instead of continuing a general as sault along the front from Chateau Thierry to near the Argonne. Fail to pnlai'Kc Gains Oh the region of Dormans and eastward along the "Marne the Ger mans have penetrated about five miles and now hold both tianks of the river for a stretch of about four teen miles. Strong and repeated attempts to enlarge their gains north and south of the river have been re pulsed. Unless they can enlarge their hold on the river the troops along the Marne are in a dangerous situation should an allied counter attack begin. Evidently the German purpose In striving to press forward astride the river to Epernay is to outflank the strong natural obstacle of the moun tain of Rheims, which lies between the Marne and Rheims. Attacks against this height from the west have stopped for the moment and no effort has been made to attack Rheims frontally. French 'Hold Stubbornly Formidable attempts by the Ger rhans to break the main French line at Prunay, about eight miles east of Rheims, have been broken up by the stubborn resistance of the French, who hold a strong line along the Vesle river. In the region of Tahure and Crosnes, in the hilly country west of the Argonne forest, the Germans have been unable to advance farther than the first advanced line. Re peated attacks there have been re pulsed with heavy losses by the French. Monday the Germans captured 13, 000 prisoners, according to Berlin.

Similar activity was displayed by the German guns in Flanders, in the district northeast of Bethune and to the north of Bail leul. tton any decided gains and the state ment of Tuesday night showed the allied resistance still was strong, if not stronger. The latest German re port says the allies delivered coun terattacks on the Marne, that the Germans had local successes south west of Rheims and that the situa tion is unchanged east of Rheims. Aerial Fight ins Is Intense Aerial fighting has been intense. French airmen have accounted for forty-one machines and nine bal loons besWes destroying five bridges across the Marne. Berlin claims the destruction of thirty-one airplanes and four balloons. West of Chateau Thierry Ameri can troops around Vaux have re pulsed a strong German local at tack. After the first setback the enemy made no other attempts to penetrate the American positions. Except for an increase in Gerrhan artillery tire on some sectors of the British front, there has been no dther activity in France. On the Italian mountain front near Monte Grappa, Italian troops have gained ground and taken near ly one hundred prisoners. Vienna says all attacks were repulsed.
