 Hence the open movement may be considered one of those wing maneuvers which are necessary as preface tc definite operations against Paris" ground, making use as best they might of whatever shelter offered: the Ger mans were on hills on the opposite side of the river, showering high explosives and gas shells upon them. But the boys from the United States went forward nevertheless, with gas masks adjusted and crawling at times for considerable distances on all-fours
 In this way they advanced bit by bit, and when they came close enough to come to grips with the Germans, they drove the enemy back in quick order
 In measure they repeated today the heroic deeds of those who defended the road 10 Paris in the second battle vl the Marne.

The extension of the enemy's line of attack to the eastern limits of the Champaigne seems possibly an endeavor to secure his right flank and to at- tract entente allied reserves from other parts of the front to that battle ground
 The French opposed a firm barrier to any advance in that direction, al. though the ground in many places was well suited to the use of tanks.

PRESENT EFFORT FORERuNNER

Officials were strongly inclined to- night to believe that the present Ger man effort is intended only as a fore runner for a later assault to the north toward the channel ports. If its proves successful in dislodging the Franco Italian defenders of Rheims by later direct assault or by pressing their pin- cer movement, it is argued the Franco British reserves back of Amiens might be drawn into the defense of Paris, weakening the line in the Albert re- zion, which is regarded as the certain
 prime objective of the whole German plan of campaign.
 The German official statement to- night added to the impression that a striking defensive victory had been
 won on the first day of the battle It's
 meagre claim that parts of the French positions had been penetrated
 was in vivid contrast with the extent
 of the effort made, It was read as

RESERVE STOCK GUNS

The guns probably come from the re- serve stock and are handled by detach : ments of sailors from the fleet.
 There is no warrant, officials believe, in any suggestion that the German fleet has been stripped of great cannon to provide the means of blasting a way for the attack
 The fact that stubborn resistance met every German rush all along the line shows that General Foch was fully forewarned of the general territory in which the attack would develop. It appears certain that he had his reserves close up and outgeneraled the enemy in this vital factor.
 President Wilson spent nearly an hour with Secretary Baker late in the day and it is probable that the battle situation was talked over although no announcement of the purport of the visit was made.
