Paris, April 23 (official com-
munieation):—Near Langemark,
to the north of Ypres, the British
have repulsed two counter at
tacks. At Hill 60, near Zwarte-
lene, German counter attacks,
whose violence seems explicable
by the desire to repair the defeat
which has been denied by official
communications of the Imperial
German general-staff, have def-
initely failed. The losses of the
enemy are a good deal higher
than the figures indicated yester-
day. In the sector of Rheims
there have been artillery duels.

In Argonne, at Bagatelle, a
German attack of no importance
was repulsed.
in the forest of Apremont, we
carried by assault two successive
lines of trenches at a place called
“The Cow’s Head,” which form-
ed a salient which seriously em-
barrassed us. A very large
number of German. dead were
left on the ground and we took
fifty-prisoners. In Alsace we
have continued to make progress
on both banks of the Fecht, To
the north we hold the confluence
of the the Fecht and its left bank
affluent, the Wurmsa. ‘To the
south we. have reached Schliess-
loch, thus gaining ground toward
the east, in the direction of Met-
zeral ok.

“London, April 28 (official com-
munication):—The latest tele-
grams from~the Persian (Gulf
show that the defeat of the Turks
at Shaib was even more complete
than had been hoped. | Not only
have they abandonéd their motor

Too Soon for Peace. 7 a
~ Boston, April 19:--‘‘Don’t ray

for Europedn peace now,” was

the advice of Dr. Charles ‘W.
Eliot, President Emeritus of Hay-|.
vard College, in an address to the
Baptist ministers of Greater Bos-
ton at the Tremont Temple to-
day... as

Dr Eliiot spoke on “The Chris.
tian Minister and the. War.”’

- “T eannot conceive of a worse
catastrophe for the human race
than peace in Europe now,’’ he
said. ‘Whoever prays for peace
takes a. responsibility. Were
peace declared ‘now, Germany
would be in possession of Belgium
and German aggressive militar-
ism would have triumphed. That
would be a suecess for Germany,
after she had committed the
greatest” crime & nation can com-
|mit, namely: Faithlessness to a

treaty, and the sanetity of con-

tracts would pags for nothing,
If the sanctity of contracts is to
pass as nothing, - civilization
would be set back for centuries,
_ “While I approve of the policy
of this government in preserving
the neutrality of the United
States at present I find it impos-
sible to be neutral myself and I
don’t see how any thinking Am-
erican can keep himself neutral,
Liberty and ali other of our Am-

erican ideals are involved in this

war.”’

Asked by a roinister from the
floor: ;

“When may we begin to pray
for peace?” Dr Eliot answered
in brief: “

“When Germany. is "at least

driven back inte her own terti-

tory, and when she has‘ been
forced to pay full idemnity to
Belgium. an
