AMERICANS REACH

In Albania Reported

ROME, July 2S -(Assoriated Press)
--Tmined American soldiers are now
actively in the fighting against the
Austrians on the Italian front. They

in thoroughly busnPssrke way. The
Italians in the adjacent sectors wildly
cheered the news Of the arrival Of their
Allies from over the seas.
Hilbert" the only cOmbatants the
Americans have had in Italy have been
their aviators who did gallant sp-,.'~~
in the assistance they rendered In the
rout of the Austrians along the Piave
River. The Americans have also had
hosital and medical forces and trans
ports here for some little time.

In Albania the fighting in the vicin.

north side Of the SPmini River has
continued. There the enemy was re
infOrced but their attacks were repulsel

Difficult Terrain
The country in which the fighting
has occurred is the most hopeless from
b the standpoint Of adaptability of mill
taTy operations that one could mag
inc. II is, first of all, maze of tan
gled mountains, with practically nc
plains, and with only narrow valleys
Thence mountains are divided and Gu
up by number of winding stream
which flow in all directions in thei'
effort to find an outlet to the sea.
The mountains rise directly from the
river valleys, with no flats between
so that in practically every case the
rivers are flowing rather through
gorgfs than through valleys The
country is, or was before the war, al
most tracklPss and was certainly with.
out any adequate roads. Here and
there are graded roads, which run for
n short distance and then degenerate
into mountain trails But there is no
continuous road system which will facil.
itate the movements Of troops and sup
plies by motor transport.
No Railroads
Railroads are entirely absent, the
nearest being that from Saloniki which
stops at MOnastir. The question OF
supplies is therefore a vital one and
one which, IL any road should happen
to change hands or be made impossible
by artillery fire, must cause great EN-
barrassment and considerable difficulty
