ALLIES TAKE FORTY TOWNS
British and French Pursue Rapidly |
RctrCdting Germans In West.
(Associated Press Summary

NASSoClhteu iTeSS ouulnhry,)
Again the British and French forces
in France are moving rapidly against
the retiring German soldiers, and
both London and Paris chronicle ad-
ditional important gains in Terrain on
various points along the line running
from Arras to the region of scissors.
Forty moro villages have been taken
by the British in districts south and
southeast of Peronne, while east of
Ham, north of Tergnier and north of
scissors the French have made good
progress.
To the north between Nurlu and
Arras the Germans at n number of
points are beginning to resist the Brit
tsh advance vigorously, but despite
this, says London, their rear guards
are being steadily driven back and the
progress of the British continues. In
tho Ailette valley and along the east
bank Of the CroZat canal the Germans
are in strong force and have heavily
bombarded French positions.
Tie Russians apparently still have
the upper hand of the Turks on the
Persian battle front.
