GERMANS AeAIN1N RETREAT.
Blow Americans Hand Grown Prince
in the Middle Speed Up Retereat
to Positions North.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The Germa
armies apparently are again on the r
treat in the Aisne- Marne salient. Th
American thrust in the center of tn
line, at Seringes, already has givel
results. The Paris statement tonigh
showed that the allied forces had leap
ed forward on the German fianks on
both sides, indicating to observers
here that withdrawal to the Vesle was
in full swing.
! This has been expected by officers
here since the American divisions out
fought crack German divisions in ter
rife conflicts which began Saturday.
The enemy made every effort to hurl
the Americans Back across the Ourcq
but he failed. His picked troops fought
to the death, reports from all sides in.
dicate; but the fierce attack of the
Americans was not to be denied, and
the positions which broke the back of
the German line on this front were con.
solidated.
With magnificent gallantry, British
and French forces took full advantage
of the situation. The enemy was hur-
ed off Calmont Butte In dashing as
sault by Franco British units, and to
the east the French also hammered at
his line. Tonights report shows that
it was made untenable and that the
French and British have made rapid
progress In exploiting the success.
The fact that 500 prisoners were
taken in one part of the action indl
Gated the retreat was more precipitate
han it has been for the last few days.
This was viewed as further evidence
hat the enemy was withdrawing un-
Ter pressure and gave new hopes that

REPORT FILED
Committee Upholds Action
of the Board of
Education.

The action Of the board of educa-
ton In refusing to renew the con-
tracts Of LILLIAN, and Charlotte .Tisch-
nauSer, teachers at the Roosevelt
school for: five years. was upheld by
the. special committee appointed for
The pufpose Of investigating the mat
ter. The report, which was present
Cd to the board yesterday, points out
that no substantial evidence has been
found which, would sustain a
charges Of disloyalty against the two
sisters.
Following is the text OF the report
to the board:
THE committee assumed its duties
with an open mind. It went into the
matter for the purpose Of doing Jus
tice to every n concerned and was
willing to recommend that the action
Of h board should be rescinded IL 1t
was found that q predominant senti-
ment existed among the patrons Of
these teachers that they should be re-
tanned and that their record war
ranted 1t.
"The COMMITTEES has read and caro-
fully classified the letters received by
the board from petitioners and has
ntade a personal visit to q majority Of
the patrons who now have, or might
have pupils under the instruction Of
these teachers ana from such investi-
cation we hnd there Is a decided diff
ference Of opinion. practically evenly
divided. as to those who take a pro-
nounced stand either for or against
the teachers. A majority Of. those
who were neutral stated that under
the circumstances the usefulness Of
these two teachers IL 70 impaired ~
to make It unwise to continue the SER
vices Of these teachers in this district.
The committee has also again in
vestisated the record Of these two
teachers since they came to Grand
Forks and hnds that they have had
more or less trotble ever since they
became connected with the schools.
TOR allsthese reasons the committee
would recommend that the action Of
the board in. not re-engas1ng these
two. teachers be not eescinded.
! Further. the committee will report
on the charge Of disloyalty, the
committee haA been unable to And
any aubstAntiAA evidence that would
sustain this charge
