With the American Army in
France, Sept 4.-During the east
ward advance from Juvigny two los
millimeter guns captured by the
Americans were returned by she
American artillerists upon the en-
emy. The big guns were in perfect
working order, and all the Americans
had to do was to switch their :nuz-
zles in the opposite direction TO
which they had been pointing. 4

Hindenburg Line Endangered
The Germans have been forced
out of the Ailette river sector and
the main defenses of the Hin
denburg line are endangered. A
thrust by the Franco American
forces at this place would be a
serious menace to the German
lines south and east of scissors,
Furious Battle Near Lens
The British continue to make
progress in the Lys salient where
Richebourg and St. Vaas have
been captured. In the vicinity
of Lens a furious battle is in
progress for the possession of
that city. Lens is one of the
strongest points of the German
defenSeS in the north.
Baralle Soon Under Fire

the British have advanced to
Baralle the enemy's position at
Cambria is endangered. Baralle
is eight miles west of Cambria
and at the rate of the British
advance soon will be under ar
tillery fire. The British line
west of Cambria is almost where
it was last March when the Ger
man offensive began. South OF

Passing Through Crisis
Mr.. Mccormick said in opening
that the party is passing through
a crisis" and that he wanted to de-
liberate with the Democrats. Mr..
Mccormick said there should be a
Congress that believes 100 per cent.
in the President. The people of
this country have got one thing to
do, forgetting politics and everything
else, and that is make every effort
to win the war" said the chairman.

lieve that Republicans are not as pa
triotic as Democrats. To win we
must unite in every effort"
The chairman made a strong plea
for Congress that would be with
the President" and said he felt that
the nation should and would do as
it did in the Civil War-refusc to
swap horses while crossing the
stream. The election of a Congress
not in sympathy with the President,
he held, would be hailed by every
German newspaper. What woaid
the Allies thing of it?" asked Chair
man Mccormick, who then said that
when the war is over the party must
have the credit for an efficient ad-
ministration. His whole effort was
to make a Democratic claim speech.

ing prior to the battle, practicing
with guns and ammunition captured
north of the Marne. Just beyond
Juvigny during their advance the
Americans captured a German dress
ing station and several wounded
Germans and rescued two wounded
Americans.
The rescued Americans had had
little food for two days and virtually
no attention. The Americans did not
complain, however, as the German
wounded were not given much atten
ton either. This was due to the
confusion of the retreat and the great
numbers of wounded Germans who
poured into the station as the Amer
leans advanced.

A T no place along the battle
u line extending from Sois-
- sons to Flanders has the
enemy been able to resist the
allied armies in sufficient
strength to cause a halt in the
offensive movement. The Ger
mans after repeated defeats at
various points have given ground
apparently content to cover their
retreat with rear guard actions.
Where, if at all. the Germans
plan to make determined stand
is problematical. The failure to
counter attack for the possession
of the Queant-Drocourt line
gives added credence to unoffi-
cial reports that still another line
has been prepared-a switch line
from Brebieres to Moeuvres-
and that here a valiant effort will
be made to stem the tide of the
battle. The British already
have reached Rumancourt, a
short distance from this new
line, and both from the north
and the south they are approach
