Fighting in gas masks the American
troops east of Llmeville have checked
a German attack under cover of gas
waves. The Germans retreated under
a heavy fire from American machine
guns, suffering severely. At one point
fourteen Germans penetrated the
American trenches. Nine were killed,
one died of wounds and four are nris-
oners.
The Germans apparently are prepar-
ing for another attack against the
American sector northwest of Toul.
The enemy artillery fire has increased
considerably and German airmen are
very active. On the other hand, the
American gunners are more than ans
wering the enemy fire and the Ameri-
can aviators are keeping the German
machines on their own side of the line.

WASHINGTON, May 3O.-Memorial
day, this year carrying a deeper mean
ing because of the fuller participation
of the United States in the war and
more significant because of the new
American graves ir France, was OBJ
served today by the American people
as "a day of public humiliation, pray
er and fasting" in accordance with
the proclamation of President Wilson
issued in response to a resolution of
congress asking that such a day be
set aside. While in no manner was
the honor usually shown to the vet
Grams of past wars lessened, yet the
thought of the nation largely was cen
tered on the battlefields of France
where the German military machine is
engaged in another drive against the
forces of democracy.
That American troops are aiding in
the attempt to stem the German tide
was a source of satisfaction as we'll
as the recent news that the Americans
had carried out successfully their first
offensive action. Further news of the
German offensive was awaited with a
feeling among high officials here that
the enemy's attempt to beat down the
allied resistance would fail and that
the onrush of the kaiser's armies
would be stopped.
In Washington the spirit of the
presidents proclamation was gener-
ally carried out. The president plan
ned to attend church services this
morning and this afternoon 1t was
expected he will be present at the an
nual services at Arlington cemetery
Both houses of congress stood ad-,
journed to permit members to observe
the day. Practically all of the gov
eminent departments and bureaus

TOUL SECTOR ACTIVE.
(By Associated P-ess.)

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Wednesday, May 29-After
a period of almost unprecedented
quiet, the American sector northwest
of Toul suddenly has become very
active. Last night and today the Ger
mans threw over hundreds of shells
of all sizes and kept up a destructive
and harassing fire. The American
guns have been just as busy and are
giving the enemy more than he
sends. The artillery duel continues
strong tonight
1t is not improbable that the Ger
mans have some plans in which they
may employ their infantry.
German airplanes also were very
active today, but as strong wind was
blowing from Germany and American
aviators were constantly on the alert,
few enemy machines ventured across
the line. Those that did were
promptly driven back by the Ameri-
can filters.
There were several battles but so
far there have been no reports of

I'VE honor our soldiers because of
they fought-the cause of freedom and
democracy. The sacrifices they made
entitle them to ever tribute that we
can pay as they were the saviours OF
our nation. The hopes of the rising
generation come from the heroes of
the past. The sons of liberty of 1861
and 1865 solved the problem of the
ages.
Owe Debt to Heroes.
LAS American citizens We should
feel that liberty and freedom we
possess we owe to these heroes. We
gather here today to pay fitting tribute
to these dead heroes"
The Women's Relief corps and the
Spanish-American war veterans were
praised by the speaker.
I'VE now turn about face and see
before us the mighty, soul-stirring
present. Rev Light said. Back of
this present and looking over it's Shout
der with pleasing eye is a most won
derful future.
I'VE are in the midst Of a great
struggle for world democracy, world
liberty and world redemption.
THE boys in blue represent a van
ishing line. In a few years none will
be left to represent them on occas-
ions like this. For time the Span
ish-American war veterans will hold
the line after the heroes Of 1861 have
passed on. Then the khaki boys of the
present day will come marching to-
ward us with the same spirit as that
manifested by the Union soldiers
and the Spanish-American war veter-
ans. Contending for a larger liberty
for the whole world our soldiers of
the past fought for the salvation Of
the nation Our boys Of the present
are fighting for the salvation Of the
world.
Onward March Of Liberty.
Their struggles have to do with
the onward march Of liberty: it is a
forward move which no power can
stay In this great crisis every citi-
zen should give loyal support to ev-
cry effort made to win the war. The
Liberty loan, the Red Cross. the Y. NJ
C. A, the thrift and war savings
stamps, in fact every such move to
win the victory, is worthy of your
whole-souled support.
Il call attention to the things for
which this struggle stands. Death to
autocratic foreignism; death to for
eign citizenship on American soil;
death to every flag and every Ian
guage which does not wave or speak
in harmony with the flags of the al
lies which demand a peace in keep
ing with the spirit which will make
the world safe for democracy; death
to destructive pacifism; and life ev-
erlasting to that pacifism which does
not believe in war, but will neverthe-
less fight to the last ditch in bring
ing about world peace for all time to
come.
and lastly there must be death to
any spirit in America Or elsewhere
which is contrary to the spirit
breathed out of the soul of Abraham
Lincoln when he said: Strive on to
finish the work we are in, to bind up
the nations wounds, to care for him
who shall have borne the battle, his
widow and his orphans. And to do all
which may achieve and cherish just
and lasting peace among ourselves
and with all nations.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. Wednesday, May 29-Lieu-
tenant Douglas Campbell Of Califor-
mia, rescued a crippled British bomb
ing machine from two German air
planes which attacked it near the
Toul sector today. Two patrols of
American pursuit airplanes had gone
out to protect a large squadron of
British bombing machines returning
from a raid into Germany.
Just before they had crossed be-
hind the American lines, one of the
British machines became separated
from the party and was attacked by
two German Albatross machines. The
BIRTHS hobserver had been wounded by
the machine gun fire of the Germans
who were about to finish the British
err when Lieut. Campbell dashed in.
He emptied his machine gun at the
German machines and the enemy re-
piled, but Campbell's fire became SO
hot for the Germans that they with
drew Lieut.. Campbell then escort
ed the British machine to safety be-
hind the American lines.

Farmer Leads Americans.
Under the leadership of lanky
youth, who was farmer until he en-
listed group of Americans gave the
Germans a hot reception. Bayonets
on the end of American rifles flashed
white and then red almost as quickly
as it takes to tell it and the enemy
party was soon overpowered.
During the engagement, a big Ger
man non-commissioned officer, who
directed the enemy party, stood on a
parapet He raised his arm to hurl a
grenade at an American soldier bur
he never threw it. Another American,
who had come through a severe gas
attack. last Monday morning, reached
the German with his bayonet The
grenade fell from the dying Germans
hand and exploded harmlessly on the
rarapet.
Gas Bombardment Proceeds.
The gas commandment that preceded
the infantry advances by the enemy
began at 1910 o'clock this morning.
The Germans had brought up addit-
ional S-inch projectors to replace
those that had been destroyed by the
American guns Monday night, and
mustard. phosphorus and chlorine
shells fell by the hundreds on the
American positions. In one small
area alone goo of these arrived. Many
of the Americans as d result began to
show the effects of slight gassing and
were harbOring a large grudge aainst
the enemy on this account.
When the gas shells began to fail
there was barely any wind making it
certain that the fumes would remain
In the localities where the Germans
placed them, and the men in the Am
erican trenches hoped the enemy
would follow up the Smelling with an
infantry attack.
The hopes of the resentful defend
ers were fully realized and the result
completely satisfied the Americans,
for in one trench at daybreak this
morning lay the nine dead Germans
who perisned in the bayonet attack,
while to the east where the men in
the trenches had gone to work with
their machine guns, the ground was
dotted with gray clad bodies.
Many of the machine gunners, still
wearing their gas masks, stuck to their
guns throughout the preliminary bonn
bardment and when they saw the ad-
vancing forms of the Germans just
outside the American wire they cut
loose with their fire.

BRITISH FAIL IN
HEROIC RESISTANCE
(By Associated Press)

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN
FRANCE, May 29.-One of the most
brilliant actions Monday was carried
out by British territorial division at
Craonne. The Germans threw their
heaviest forces against the region be-
tween Craonne and Bermericourt,
where the British were holding the
line, and against the French along the
Chemin Des Danes.
The British division made a most
gallant effort to stem the onfiowing
tide and even vigorously counter-at-
tackled against the fearful odds. The
attempt although carried out with
spirit, failed because of the entrance
of enemy tanks on the TANKS.
One brigade of this division fought
heroic rear guard action at Ville-Aux-
Bots, southeast of Craonne, side by
side with French territorials. The
allied troops resisted the Germans I'M
til the last extremity.
