SUMMARY

Associated Press Summary-The
hard pressed and war worn armies
of Germany are still wavering be-
fore the spirited attacks of the Allies
who are relentlessly hammering away
and steadily pressing them back, es-
pecially in Central Picardy, from the
Somme in a northerly direction to
Bapaume The Germans are re-
treating eastward toward St. Quen-
tin, and large numbers of prisoners
and many guns and much material
are daily falling into the hands of
the British on this portion of the
Picardy front.
Elsewhere along the battlefront,
the apparently untiring British,
French and Americans are maintain
ing heavy pressure against the
| enemy, who now has lost all of the
important bases held by them west
of the Hindenburg Line, with the
exception of Peronne, Ham and Terg.
ner. The British are now within
two miles of Peronne and are slowly
closing in on the doomed city. The
French forces are five miles west
Of Ham and are steadily continuing
their advance towards this city, while
Tergner is not seriously threatened
as yet. On the extremity of the
battleline the Allies are moving for.
ward slowly and steadily.
| To the east and southeast of Arras
the British forces appear to have
crashed through the Hindenbure
line.

ANOTHER CAMP
IS ESTABLISHED
NORTH Of TOWN
New Camp Is Located Across River
At the Foot of the Bluff, to Be
Known As Camp AIS.

To take care of the grading work
now being done on the Nenana-
Fairbanks right of way, an engineer
ing camp has been established at the
foot of the bluff across the river
from Nenana. This camp will be
known as camp AIS, and will be
the headquarters of the engineering
party under the supervision of Resi-
dent Engineer J. j. Kestley.
The buildings of old Camp 6 are
now being made ready for occupa-
ton and the advance guard of the
men who will compose camp Ais
have already gone across. Pat
Meehan, with two-horse team and
a light load of supplies was sent
across the river this morning and
he will be engaged in freighting
supplies to the contractors along the
right of way.
1t is expected that the necessary
messhouse supplies and a mess crew
will be sent across the river soon,
who will get the mess into running
shape against the arrival of the men
who will form the camp.
There are five well-built log build
ings at the foot of the bluff across
the river, formerly known as camp 6,
consisting of bunkhouses, messhouse,
barn and cache with ample accommo-
dation for a large number of men.
The camp is very pleasantly situated
and there is an ample supply of
fresh water, in fact the quality of
the water found there is said to
be much superior to any found any
where in the neighborhood of Ne
mana. The buildings have not been
in use for about two years.
