gram from Bonn bay, which says:
There is much speculation here as to

1t is asserted, on one hand, that the

hand, Colonel Lawrence says that two
comranies were ut the front with the
other troops on The day in question. while
the remaining com panies were retired on
order OF a staff commander.
This latter statement is contradicted
from headquarters by the assertion that
the order was to advance and not to re-
tire. When the entire battalion was
