WHITE SALMON, Wash, June
1.-The coroner's jury was ex-
pected today to return q verdict
OF murder and suicide following
its investigation of the deaths OF
Bert Bishop and Mrs. Chester
r. Dewey.
The bodies we're found along
the roadside. Bisile.l's arm was.
around the young woman. The
other hand clasped a revolver.
Mrs. Dewey's husband recently
was commissioned a lieutenant in
the army. She was 16 when
married and 81 at death.
She formerly worked as book
keeper in Bishops office. He was
construction superintendent for
the Pacific Light e. Power Co. A
wife and three children survive
Bishop, who was 35. Mrs. Dewey
is survived by two small sons.
Lieut.. Dewey recently left
Camp Lewis en- route east, and
may now be on the way to
France to join the overseas
forces.
Bishop and Mrs. Dewey attract
ed attention here by their friend
ship. They frequently took long
fishing trips and hikes into neigh
boring forests together.

Aside from the main German
objective of crushing the Anglo
French armies, the enemy has
three objectives--the channel
ports. separation of the British
and French armies and capture
of Amiens and Paris.
German reserves can now be
used in one of these---it is inn
possible to tell which. The re-
serves at the right and left of
the crown princes army have not
yet been touched, it is known.
The German attack in the
Aisne region was not complete
surprise, because an enemy con-
centration there was known to he
in progress, but there was no
definite information that really
great drive was impending.
The Germans deserve any
credit for the secret name in
which they brought up sheir
troops the night before the at
tack. Only two hours of artil-
lery and trench mortar fire eff
fectively cut the wire defenses.
The first day of the assault,
the crown princes army adj
vanced ~ miles, overruning the
French lines and crossing the
Aisne in an effort to cut the
Paris Chalons railway and to widen
the salient he had created.
Considerable success attended
his efforts in the center, but he
was frustrated on the TANKS.
1t is not fair to blame the al
lied command for the reverse. 1t
was the outcome of an inherently
unfavorable strategical situation.
With a numerically superior enc
my, the allies cannot have ade-
quate reserves at all their at
tackled points. which would be the
only way of preventing initial
German successes.
