fensive would continue. In other
words, the enemy's High Command
did net appreciate at first the sig
nificance of General Mangin's ad-
vance to the heighborhood Of Sois-
sons. They could not believe that
this last tremendous offensive of
theirs, mounted on scale rivalling
TIE one of last March and directed
against a front Of fifty miles, with
force to begin with Of some sixty
divisicns-two-th thirds of their whole
available striking force-had really
fai ed. Hence, there was this Gu
rious hesitation 10 retire or even
mcdify their position beyond tie

Friday.
The second order must have been
Gated some time on Friday, July 10,
full th,rty-sx hours after the Al
lied counter stroke had been deiiv-
cred. 1t was pla My an order for
general retirement, for the enemy
not only went back across the Marine
but left Chateau Thierry and it's
neighbc rhood. The weakening of
his artillery fire showed that he was
pushing back his guns, and the &c
tions he was fighting were the Sc of
rear guards rather than true cUun-
ter attacks.
After about another equal inter
val, probably cary on Sunday
comes the third order. The German
troops in the unfortunate salient
were bidden to cease Their retire
nlent, to hold on at all costs and to
keep as much Of the ground they
were occupying as poss.ble They
were particularly hidden to hang on
teNacious)y to the southernmost and
most difficult portion of the ground
along the Marine itself, in the neigh
borhood of Dormans. A new and
vigorous policy Of expensive counter
attacks was inaugurated, many
fresh divisions appeared on the we t.
ern side of the salient and the art;l-
lery actions grew heavier as the
week advanced, which showed that
some guns had been brought back.

Friday, July 26, it must have ap-
peared impossible to the enemy to
hold longer He then reverted to
his original policy of retirement,
abandoning the line Of the Marne
with the control over its railway
and frankly flattening the salient, so
that upon the succeeding day the
French and Americans were able to
occupy quite a considerable new belt

A New Policy Of
Counter Attacks

The policy through all the days
became one of high expense in men
with the object of retaining ground.
1t was not fully successful, even at
such a price. Fringe by fringe, the
German position was torn away.
Vile Montoire was retal1en, the ex-
tremely important position of Oulchy
was seized, the Nanteuil brook was
crossed, and by the evening of Fri
day, July 26, French guns were fir
ing into the road junction of Fare-
en- Tardenois, at a range Of just
over 5000 yards, which meant that
the use Of that point by the enemy
had become impossible.

But on July 2S there suddenly re-
appeared the policy Of a general re-
tirement. Now, why have these fou,
successive policies, each contra,
diction of the last, followed each 9th

TNHE problem which has been
puzzling all observers of the
war ever since General Foch
launched his counter offensive on
July Is has now been largely re
solved. The problem was to inter
pret the mind of the German High
Command, as shown in its action be-
tween Rheims and Scissors, after
Foch had broken it's offensive and
turned the strategic situation inside
out, fully recovering the initiative
for the Allies by his great counter
blow.
The enemy acted after this move
ment for fully ten days in fashion
which it was impcss to interpret
upon any one plan. First, he simply
stood in his positions in the south as
though awaiting orders, or uncertain
of his intention. Second, full
thirty-six hours after the great
French success toward Scissors,
which threatened his communica-
tions, his eight foremost divisions
which had been thrown across the
Marne were withdrawn across the
river, and it looked as though the
enemy had decided upon the wisest
course open to him--to fall back and
flatten out the salient; to make him
self militarily secure at the expense
of a l:ttle ground and the mere
moral loss Of prestige. The opin on
that he was boldly going to cut his
losses and fall beck was con nfrmod
by his leaving Chateau Th;erry vol
unfairly, and it looked, during three
days, that is, up 20 about July %
as though we were in the presence
of the simple and obvious man ruvre
on the part of force SURPRISED and
threatened in its communications.
to wit, retirement and flattening
out of the salient.
Beaten Out of
Every Position
But at that moment another policy
appeared. Congested as the enemy
already was with some four hun
dred thousand men in a district less
than thirty miles broad and about

NWE u. s. ARMY RIFLE SHOWS
IMPROVEMENTS OVER
OTHER MODELS.

The United States rifle, model Of
1917, commonly called the modified
Enfield, has now been tested in the
service Of the Army . sufficient time
to warrant the assertion that it more
than justifies the claims made for it,
according to a statement authorized
by the Secretary Of War.
The new rife takes . .30.caliber
cartridge, which has the advantage
over the British Enfield Of being rim
less. It has been found that unless
rim cartridges are fed through the
magazine uniformly with the rim Of
the top cartridge ahead of the rim Of
the one Immediately below, jams are
likely to occur.
The. model Of 1917 has an over.
all length Of 1873 inches; a to.
tai weight including oiler and thong
case and bayont of 10 pounds and 6
ounces. The breech mechanism is o1
the bolt type.
