ASSISTS FRENCH
(By Associated Press)


WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
PICARDY, June 11.-American artil-
lery aided the French in their attack
against the Germans southwest and
south Of Montdidler today by direct
ing harassing fire against the en-
emy. Otherwise, the American troops
have not been engaged in the present
battle.
The Americans in the sector west
Of Montdidier, however, are ready to
assist in the fighting at the first op-
portunity.
The Germans made two minor raids
against the American lines at Can:ig-
ny Monday night and were repulsed
each time. One raiding party which
numbered 40 was routed by the re-
volver fire of the Americans.
On the right OF the American sec
tor, German aviators have been busy.
One enemy flying machine bearing a
French insignia as disguise, flew
over the American line at a height of
500 metres and attacked with bombs
and machine fire American soldiers
on the march. The Americans took
cover and there were no casualties
Reports that the Germans have been
using French signs on their airplanes
have been numerous during the last
fortnight.

CLAIMS TODAY'S
FIGHTING Will
DECIDE VICTORY
Henri Bidou, French Military
Critic, Says Scales Are Now
Even.
(Bv Associated Press.l

PARIS, June 12.-Today's fghting
probably will decide on which side
victory will rest in the present battle,
says Henri Bidou, the military critic
in reviewing the situation. He says
the fighting is taking the classical
form in which each side has won on
one wing. The scales are now even.
BY their counter attack the French
stopped the enemy from carrying out
his plan at the same time assured
themselves of a better line of de-
fense. The Germans are now obliged,
NJ. Bido,f believes, to keep their effec-
tives on the firing line and to dip into
their stock of reserves for fresh d.
visions.
The German plan for the present
battle, says Marcel Hutin OF Echo de
Paris. in reporting the statements Of
prisoners, included the attacking and
storming of Compeigne by the caval-
ry of the guard under General Won
Schoeler on Sunday evening. Now the
Germans not only are not at Com
piegne, but they show a great deal
less vigor in their efforts. except on

enemy columns in the center march
ing on Compiegne. from which they
are now only six miles away.
The point thrust forward by the
Germans in the center is extremely
precarious unless the enemy succeeds
in thanking it by gaining possession
of the heights on either side.
This, the Germans secured Monday
by the capture of Merry plateau on
their right and Thiescourt wood on
their left. Tonight they have lost the
former and their efforts to improve
the situation on their left have been
baffled by the French who hold firm
ly. If anything, the German center
is in greater danger than before in
asmuch as it has advanced further.
After three days Of fighting in
which the Germans have incurred a
serious wastage of manpower, the
general situation remains unchanged
The enemy has failed to reach Com
piegne, his immediate objective. His
advance on the right bank of the Disc
is not sufficient to place in jeopardy
the allied positions on the other bank
between the Disc and the Aisne. At
the other extremity of the battle line,
the Montdidier plateau, the situation
has not been changed
