WITH THE AMERIcAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Oct. 1.-The fighting in the
last twenty-four hours has been more
or less of local nature. and there are
signs that the enemy contemplates
further withdrawal. Traffic has been
seen moving in a northeasterly direc-
ton.
In the Arsonne the Americans made
slight progress, ploughing their way
through wilderness. The Germans
have been throwing tear shells in our
back areas. Gesnes is IN flames. Much

the Germans have organized very strong
defensive positions, where they fight
with bombs and trench mortars In ad-
dttion to the inevitable machine guns.
In these places, as well as against
the machine guns, the whippet tanks do
excellent service. While the American
infantrymen and artillerymen are night
Ing valantly the airmen are performing
no less gaiiantly. They are carrying
out bombing raids constantly, and in
towns like Dun sur Mouse. where there
Is considerable traffic. they have done
great damage. Besides this work they
are constantly on the alert for German

lines. and battles in the sky are fire.

The Germans have been flying patrols
of seven or eight Fokkers, but not since
the first day OF our drive have they
shown a disposition to fight Their
losses have been very heavy. American
airmen take extraordinary risks. often
flying to within 100 feet OF the ground,
and they are never more than a thou

infancy. has won high praise from the
veteran British and French fliers.

dares not move to confront them with

revolt.
The Allies are threatening to flank
him, cutting across his rear communica-
lions. Germany. who adopted the policy
OF a warlike front on the west and an
nexation OF territory in the east. now
realizes that all her dreams are doomed.
her eastern allies are deserving her and
the only apparent contingency that
would prevent Turkey from asking for
peace would be a bogus revolution
which. after all, would merely SHIFT in.

situation unchanged.
Rumania Is Problem.
The military policy Of the Allies prob
ably will be directed toward moving

Among the diplomats representing

personal abdication or banishment OF
King Ferdinand will not offer sufficient
