war accompanied the storming in
tantry, which at latest reports had
battled forward into the eastern out
skirts Of the town, where severe
lighting took place.
Germans Make Slight Progress
From the sector came word that
the Germans had made very slight
progress.
The assault was preceded by a
heavy bombardment about Villers-
Bretonneux. At the conclusion OF
this preparation the Germans surged
forward along the whole British
front south Of the Somme, although
it seemed evident that they had Viii
lers-Bretonneux as their ultimate
goal because of it's dominating posi-
ton.
The first attack was thrown back,
but the enemy Immediately came
forward again, and this time met
with more success. In the face Of
heavy machine gun and rifle fire the
Germans pushed on toward the town,
their three tanks leading. The
British gave way slightly, and the
enemy got a footing in the eastern
fringe of the town.

Further north, a little above the

put up an S o S for artillery pro-

and what appeared to promise a
serious attack began to show. 1t
turned out to be nothing more pre-
tentious than an attempted raid.
however, and the British artillery
smashed the enemy infantry as they
were leaving their trenches.
Between Robecq and Givenchy-Le
la Bassee there was also consider
able enemy shelling this morning,
and the Germans made small at
tack in an attempt to take pos
near Givenchy, but this movement
was quickly stopped by the British
fire.
The British carried out minor
operations at Givenchy which result
ed in the recapture Of strong post
which the enemy held.
South of the Clarence River four
German companies which essayed a
local attack were repulsed.
Bombardment Lasted Days
Trouble had been brewing in the
Somme sector for days, the enemy
maintaining a bombardment of more
|or less intensity over a wide area.
Throughout yesterday Villers-Breton-
neux and surrounding places were
heavily shelled and this morning the
bombardment was greatly increased.
On the northern battlefront the Ger
sman artillery pounded the Entente
allied positions yesterday, especially III
sthe Robecq and Merville sector, and
this morning an intense bon,bardmsnt
WAS put down in the British positions
on both sides of the river Lave. Thus
:. large section of the northern battle
front was seething to-day.
An attack above Albert came after
half hour bombardment by the enemy.
AS the German infantry left their
trenches, the British deluged them with
rifle and machine gun tlre and 1ofced
"a hasty retirement.
A British operation yesterday over
a 2,000-yard front in the Riez du
Ninage sector was a complete success
and greatly improved the defending
lines. A nasty salient, about 1900
Yards wide and about the same depth,
had bulged into the British territory

attack the British drove the enemy

that Dudendorff had decided upon
big operations in thisalocality.
Scanty reports of the third phase
of the Amiens battle indicate that
the German spearhead is directed
against Hangard, where the British
and French forces meet. For week
every hamlet and wood in and
around the confluence of the Somme
and Avre rivers have been shelled
heavily by the enemy. Amiens itself
has suffered severely.
To the north, the Albert sector
has been the scene of lively artil-
lery duel with almost daily local in
fantry actions.
In front, northeast and southeast
of Amiens, the Allied troops and
guns have been massed to meet the
huge enemy force which is billeted
around Bapaume, Peronne, Bray,
Chaulnes, Roye and other places
nearer the battle front. Field Mar
shall Haig's aviation communicates
report almost nightly the, bombing of
these concentration camps.
Tuesday was the first clear day
after a long spell of bad weather,
and Ludendorff seized the opportu-
nifty to launch a new blow, which was
virtually frontal attack on An4iens.
Villers-B s-Bretonneux and Hangard are
the immediate German objectives at
which Won Hutier's troops are aimed.
The line of attack is following the
general direction of the rivrs.
Ludendorf Seeks Opening
Even should Amiens be lost the
situation would be far less serious
from military viewpoint than it
was month ago. The long pause
has given Foch an opportunity to
make dispositions Of his troops and
materials which would have been
impossible during the second phase
of the battle.
The moral effect would be con-
siderable, but the people have be-
gun to understand that in this bat
tie territory is a secondary consio-
Grafton.
According to the reports trick
ling in, the drive toward Bethune
rivals in violence that on the south
ern battlefield. General Won Bern
hardi is in command of the army
aiming at Lillers, Bethune and Gi-
venchy. 1t is likely that any sue
cess in this sector would be fol-
lowed up by widening Of the front
southwark to include Loos.
Apparently Ludendorff is not
working according to any hard and
fast rule, but is disposing his forces
as the campaign develops. A certain
objective is selected, a certain force
set aside to take it. If the action re-
suits profitably, then further forces
are brought up. This plan is i'm
possible unless a commander has
large reserves and exceptional COM
munications. Ludendorff seems to
consider his communications supe-
rior to those of the Allies.

tant Allied conferences are being
