Paris, Nov. 21.-The official com
munication given out in Paris this
afternoon reads as follows:
THE day of November 20, generally
speaking, was similar to the two pre-

was intermittent cannonading on our
part and theirs.
''At Hollebk two attacks of German
infantry were Immediately repulsed.
From the Belgian frontier to the
Disc there was nothing to report.
IN the region Of the Aisne and the
Champagne the advantage gained by
our batteries over the artillery of the
enemy has become more marked and
has prevented the Germans from con
tinuing the construction Of certain
trenches begun by them.
I'm the Argonne we blew up GER
tain Of the enemy's trenches.
I'm the vicinity of verdun and in

At certain points we have established

that Blanco had been wavering in his
allegiance first toward Carranza and
then towards the forces of the Aguas
