Although the German attacked
on the southern flank on a front of
35 miles in great strength, it is not
yet clear what is behind the opera
ton. Probably several days will
pass before the situation is defined
clearly. Two possibilities stand out
that the Germans felt it neces-
sary to widen then elbow about
Montdidier, or that it was feared
General Foch might begin a coun-
ter offensive toward Laon. Nor is
it unlikely that the attacks on the
extremities OF the nearly 200-iaile
line are foints for a stupendous
movement towards Amiens.
Enemy Suffers Heavy Losses.
In gaining the heights north of
the Aisne and the famous Chemin
dcs Danes. the Germans suffered
most heavily. The region over
which they have advanced thus far
is one of the most battle-scarted
in France. If the crown prince
hoped to crush the French and
separate them from the British at
Bery-au- he failed, as contact
between the allied forces has been
maintained throughout the fighting
How far the Germans advanced on
the extreme ends of the new fight
ing front is not defined clearly. but
in the center they reached the re-
gion north of Pontarcy, on the
Aisne, four-mile advance.
Along the six mile front from
Locre to Noormezeele, on the Fian-
ders battlefield, the French hurled
the enemy back with great losses
and still hold tenaciously to the ;er-
ritory protecting the ridge running
west from Mont KENNEL.
Heavy Fighting Continues.
Near Noormezeeler, where the
French have taken over the line
from the British. heavy lighting
continues around Dickebusch LAKE,
where the Germans penetrated the
allied line.
Meanwhile there is vcry intense
artillry fire from north of tne
Somme to the Avre in Picardy. The
Germans have made no attacks here
except for strong raids against the
allied lines, especially the Aincri-
can sector west OF Montdidier : he
Americans threw back the Germans
in a counter attack after fighting

losses and prisoners were taken by

is merely demonstration in force
with the object of drawing the al

from the opening stages of the fight

In the simultaneous attack today
of three German raiding parties
against the American positions in
Picardy, the enemy penetrated the
American first line to depth of two
hundred yards.
A brilliant counter attack threw
the Germans out and the Americans
kept on until they had entered the
enemy first line, where they re-
mained until ordered back.
The Germans suffered heavily in
the fighting, which was of hand
to-hand nature at times. Seve .al
prisoners were taken by the Ameri-
cans.
The American artillery did re-
markable work in helping to turn
the German raid into 4 victory for
the defenders.
The bravery of the Americans
may be illustrated by the case of
private whose arm was blown off.
Dazed, he kept on fighting and did
not know he had been injured until
