BRITISH PRESS
GIVES FOURTH
ITS DUE PLACE

LONDON, July 4.-Never before
has the British press devoted so much
space to America y Independence day
as on the present anniversary. The
evening newspapers seize the occasion
to print new stories. editorials and
cartoons, all of which carry the note
OF hands across the sea-.
The historic significance OF the day
Is freely mentioned, but far from ex-
pressing acrimony, the writer's all
adopt an attiture similar to that dis
played In an article In the Westmin-
ster Gazette, which says:
To-day America becomes English
and England American and we are
forgetting IA little of our phlegm in
paying tribute to the fact"
The Evening News publishes huge
cartoon OF Uncle sam and John Bull
In army uniforms marching arm in
arm to war. John Bun remarks to
Uncle Sam. with IA smile. "Today's the
day you left me. Sam, the day that
made you free,
Uncle Sam beams on his companion
and replies: Yes, John. free to come

These news articles are headed with
such captions as "Old Glory; London

The Fourth in London developed
into a rainy day and the myriad new
American Flags which were flown

PARIS IS H0ARSE
CHEERING TROOPS
All France Celebrates Fourth
of July and Pays Tribute
to Pershing.

PARIS. July All France cele-
brated the Fourth of July. Paris
turned out a crowd that no American
city ever surpassed for size, enthusi-
asm and profusion of the Stars and
Stripes.
A battalion of the First American
expeditionary force about to leave for
training behind the battle front had
its first official review in France and
was the center of the celebration.
Everywhere the American Flag was
flying from public buildings. hotels
and residences and from automobiles.
cabs and carts Horses brides and
the lapels of pedestrians carried them.
The crowd began to gather early
at vantage points. Rue de Varenne was
choked long before s o'clock this
morning when the Republican Guard
band executed a field reveille under
General Pershing's windows and all
routes toward the lnvalides were
thronged even before Pershing's men
turned out.
Amid War Trophies.
About the court of honor. where the
Americans were drawn up with de-
tachment of French terirtorials. the
buildings overflowed with crowded hu-
manity to the roofs. All around the
khaki clad men from the United States
were trophies and souvenirs of war
German cannon, airplanes. machine
guns and many appliances for burn
ing suffocating gas. Behind them in
the chapel separating the court of
honor from Napoleons tomb were
German battle flags, trophies of the
Marne and Alsace, beside Prussian
banners of 1870.
There in the chapel. before the tomb
of Napoleon. General Pershing re-
ceived American Flags and banners
from the hands of President Poincare.
Almost the entire history of the strug-
giles of the French against the Ger
mans looked down upon the scene
from paintings portraying heroic Incl
dents in French battles from Charlie
magne to Napoleon. There was a
sharp contrast between the khaki and
plain wide -brimmed hats of Pershing' S
men and the gay dress of d'Artagnan-
plumed musketeers and Napoleon's
grenadiers.
All Hail Americans.
The Enthusiasm of the vast crowd
reached its highest pitch when Gen
eral Pershing. escorted by President
Poincaire. Marshal Joffre and other
high French dignitaries. passed along
reviewing tne lines Oh inc Americans
drawn up in square formations. Cheer
ing broke out anew when the Ameri-
can band struck up the Marseillaise.
and again when the French band
played the Star Spangled Banner"
and Pershing received the Flags from
the president. "Vive les Americans!
Vive Pershing! Vive les Etats Unis!"
shouted over and over by the crowd
greeted the American standard bear
ers as they advanced.
The crowd that had waited three
hours to witness the ceremonies that
were over in Is minutes surged toward
the exit, cheering frantically after the
departing Americans and trying to
break thru a Gordon OF police troops.
Outside a greater crowd that covered
the entire esplanade of the Invalides
took up the cheers as Pershings men
marched away.

BRITISH BEAT OFF RAIDERS
TcutOnic Aircrafts Swarm Down on
English Port From Clouds.

LONDON, July 4.-From 12 to IA
German raiders today dropped bombs
on Harwich, seaport town in Es-
sex, 1t was officially announced to-
day. Eleven persons were killed
and 36 others were injured.
There was a lively fight between
British and German airplanes during
the attack on Harwich this morning
and only about 55 minutes elapsed
before the defense aircraft and the
antiaircraft guns drove off the in
vaders, according to late dispatches.
1t was very misty morning, but
the German machines could be dis
tinguished at intervals when they
appeared from behind cloud banks.
The German squadron travelled at
great speed and in close formation.
heading first one way and then an
other in an erratic manner. Bombs
were dropped in rapid succession.
The British airmen Immediately took
the initiative and. operating under
the most adverse conditions, inter-
cepted the Germans and broke up
their formation.

GERMAN
SPY RESPONSIBLE
Attack of U-Boats on Ameri-
can Transports Excites
U. S. Officials.

WASHINGTON, July 4.-The un-
successful submarine attack on the
ships OF the American expeditionary
forces has revived spy rumors in the
capital and will result in even more
stringent measures, II possible, to
cloak the movement of military forces
from the enemy.
The relief and qualification of Of
ficials over the safe arrival of the
last units of the expedition Is tenn
pered by manifest feeling OF indig-
nation that the German admiralty
was able TO lay its plans to well and
TO attack the American vessels in
force before they reached the zone,
which had been regarded as most
dangerous.
Spies at Work?
Discussion of possible spy activities
took many angles today. Some Off
cials were inclined to Believe that the
Germans must have had warning
of the definite time agreed upon for
the crossing. but others dlscredited
any such theory. arguing that an at
tack was to have been expected as
n natural consequence Cf the general
knowledge that was common prop
erty.
There were indications that the de-
partment of justice might be asked
to undertake an investigation when
army and navy reports on the incident
were complete.
There was little inclination any
where to attach blame for the attack
to any official act of the war or navy
department. 1t was pointed out that
the movement overseas was conducted
with unusual secrecy considering the
large number of men affected, and
that the utmost precautions were TAX
en- after the ships were at sea to make
the time of their arrival on the other
side conjectural even to any person
knowing the hour OF the departure.
To Seek Remedy.
Officials said, however. that II final
reports on the crossing aroused any
suspicious OF defects in the government
machinery for maintaining secrecy
about such operations immediate rem
edial steps would be taken

effort to break the French lines north
west of Rheims. Attacking In force
along an ii mile front the Germans
made especially strong efforts around
Cerny and Allies and against the
California plateau. The French re-
pulsed all attacks with losses.

operation east of Cerny and captured
a strong German salient. German at
tacks on the left bank OF the Meuse
