They prefer to call Il the battle OF
Rheims Mountain"
As they analyze the German plan
and the thoroughness with which IL
was shattered, IL develops that the
enemy did not seek to storm the
mountain, but sought 70 turn it, Arss
by crossing the Marne, then rapidly
widening their bridgehead.
Then, since they expected the Allies
to be strongly entrenched in the valleys
Of the Marne and the Seine, toward
Paris. they would turn their backs on
the capital and move toward Epernay.
Meanwhile, other German forces
were to crush Gen Gouraud's army
and seize Chalons. The two German
armies then would join and Rheims
and Rheims Mountain would fall
without tight
II is apparent the Germans under
estimated the available Allied forces
and the spirit with which they would
meet the assault.
Some insight into the political ef.
feet on Germany can be gained from
the protestations of a Pan-Germanist
offlcer who was taken prisoner. He
declared that certain Bavarian ele-
ments failed to defend their positions
earnestly" and practically accused
them Of treason.

Frenchmen.
Americans including black Ameri-
cans, and Englishmen and Italians,
fought between the French. After
two heavy days Of laghting, the
attacking strength of our troops
again made itself felt. They had ac-
customed themselves 10 the enemy
methods OF attack, made without
out artillery preparation and based
upon the massed employment OF
tanks, which at first caused them
surprise.
The fighting of yesterday ranks
In achievement OF leaders and
troops and in its victorious results
on level with former great fight
ing successes which have been
gained on this battlefield.
On the heights southwest Of Sois-
sons the attacks OF the enemy
launched after the strongest drum
fire collapsed. Led by tanks, the
enemy infantry rushed forward TO
the attack as many as seven times
against the road from Scissors to
Chateau-Thierry, north OF the
Ourcq.
Northwest of ChateauIThierry, our
regiments, who during the last few
weeks have over and over again been
vainiy attacked. yesterday also vic
toriously held their positions against
many times repeated strong attacks
by the Americans.
The Americans have suffered es-
pecially heavy losses, and during
the night, undisturbed by the en-
emy, we withdrew our defences in
the territory north and northeast Of
Chateau-Thierry.
On the southern bank of the Marne
after four hours Of artillery prep
aration and under cover Of a heavy
fire, and with numerous. tanks, the
enemy made combined attacks
against positions which had been
evacuated by us during the previ-
Gus night, which attacks uselesly
beat against empty positions. Our
partially flanking fire, which was di-
rected from the northern bank, in
aicted losses on the enemy.
Southwest Of Rheims the enemy
brought up strong forces in an at
Jack on the positions captured by
us between the Marne and north
OF the Ardre. The English here
came to the help Of the French
and Italians. As a result Of our
fire and counterthrusts they failed,
with heavy losses TO the enemy.
