With the American Army on the

Press) July 27.-The Franco-Ameri-
can forces northeast of Chateau
Thierry have driven the Germans al
most entirely out of the wooded area
they have been SO stubbornly defend
ing. The allied pressure on the much
harrassed Germans is constantly
maintained and this morning the
punishment of the enemy by artillery
was resumed with added vigor. The
French and Americans under cover
of their big guns again began crawl
ing forward. The advance, which is
bringing the Allies still nearer to the
important road junction of Fere en-
Tardenois, it being made through a
dense wood and over the rain-soaked
fields and hills on the outskirts of the
woods. The Germans are slowly re-
treating and fighting stubbornly.
The enemy's most intense efforts are
being exerted to hold his lines on his
fianks in the regions of Scissors and
Rheims.

ENEMY PULLING OUT

Even the Murman coast, in northern
Russia, has been held to be under his
command
After a period of quiet, the Ger
mans attacked once more, this time
on the Aisne river. and in seven days
they reached the Marne at Chateau
Thierry, making a penetration of
about twenty-eight miles. At the
Marne they were checked and the i'm
petus of the blow was broken.
With hardly days pause for re-
organization of their forces, the Ger
mans again attacked, choosing the
sector between Montdidier and Noy-
on, on the southern side of the salient
driven into the allied line during the
March offensive, as the stage of their
onslaught. This offensive ran for
five days and was stopped north of
Compiegne after losses which were
described as unprecedented had been
inflicted upon the Germans.
From June IA until July 15 the
Germans were engaged in shifting
their forces and then they again
struck. This time the line of attack
was from Chateau Thierry eastward,
around to the north of Rheims and
then down the Vesle river TO Prunay
and from that village eastward to
Massiges. This attack at the close of
the year developed into one of the
most ambitious of German strokes.
German forces crossed the Marne
over wide front, but were unable to
make ground against American
troops near Chateau Thierry, and
could not advance rapidly further
east.
They did, however, forge ahead on
the north side of the Marine and be-
tween that stream and the mountain
of Rheims. 1t appeared for time
that they might reach Epernay.
Then General Foch struck coun-
ter blow, which is still in progress.
American and French troops attack
ed the Germans between Fontency,
on the Aisne west of scissors and
Belleau, on the Slignon northwest of
| Chateau Thierry. So sudden and
powerful was the blow that the Ger
mans fell back rapidly until their re-
serves could be hurried up.
The rapid advance of the Allies,
however, so menaced the German
forces further south that on July 19
the enemy began retreat across the
Marne. On Sunday, July 21, French
and Americans entered Chateau
Thierry and pressed on after the re-
tiring Germans.
Since that time the Allies have
gained slowly. but steadily, not only

address made on January 5 by David
Lloyd George, the British premier.
To these addresses reply was made
by Imperial Chancellor Won Hertling
of Germany. and Count Czernin. The
latter was pacific and conciliatory in
tone, while the former, alluding to
"the good German sword" showed
he was, speaking for the militarists of
the Germanic powers.
-FOUR PRINCIPLES
To these replies there was rejoinder
by President Wilson. who, on Febru-
ary II. again addressing Congress,
laid down what have come to be
known as the "Four Principles" upon
which peace can be based. Briefly,
these principles were:
Final settlement must be based on
essential justice.
Peoples and provinces are not to be
bartered about like chattels.
Every territorial settlement must
be for the benefit and in the interest
of the population concerned.
All well-defned national aspira-
tions shall be met with the utmost
satisfaction consistent with the fu-
ture peace.

Chateau Thierry continues, and the
Allies are within three and a half
miles of Fere en- Tardenois. which is

The most striking advance since

THE ENEMY OFFENSIVE

Last winter it became known that
the Germans were massing forces on
the western front. Reports came that
large units were training behind the
lines and that new and more terrible
engines of war than had been known
before were to be used in German eff
fort to break the allied lines, crush
their armies and force them to make
peace. The drive was well advertis-
ed and even the place where it was to
be launched was known with compar-
ative certainty.
On the morning of March 21, the
Germans began their attack from the
vicinity of Arras, on the north, to La
Fere, on the south. and centering
/ their heaviest columns against the
British forces, under General Cough,
at st. Quentin.
Staggering before the impact of
the blow, the British army fell back
rapidly. For eight days the Germans
poured through the old allied line in
an effort to, crush the British and
drive wedge between them and the
French, who were holding the lines to
the south. Then came period of re-
action and the Germans came to a
stop. They had driven ahead for 35
miles, along front extending more
than fifty miles before they were
halted.
Hardly had their legions been held
before Amiens than a new offensive
was begun in Flanders, on April 2. 1t
| swept the British back through Ar
mentieres, but did not break their
lines. The British, with the French
who were rushed up to the front,
stopped the Germans after they had
reached the hills southwest of Ypres.
There. on April 8, the Germans suf-
fered a terrible defeat that halted
their offensive in that quarter.
FOCH IN SUPREME COMMAND
| In the midst of the drive in the
sector toward Amiens the allied ma
tions took a vitally important step.
They named General Ferdinand Foch,
hero of the first battle of the Marne,
generalissimo of the allied forces on
the western front, which includes all
the line in Italy as well as in France.

RUSSIAN COLLAPSE

Events in the meanwhile had been
moving swiftly in Russia. On Novem-
Der 1. while the offensive against
Italy was under way. Alexander F.
Kerensky, then the Russian premier,
announced that Russia was worn out
by the war and that the Allies must
shoulder the burden thenceforward.
Seven days later Kerensky was de-
posed by the Bolsheviki. The fall and
fight of Kerensky was the signal for
Germany and Austria to enter into
peace negotiations with Russia. On
November 30 the Bolsheviki an
nounced that Russia was out of the
war and proposed that all the Allies
join in negotiations for an armistice
Russian and German representa-
lives met at Brest-Litovsk on Decem-
Der p, and terms of peace were ex-
changed. No progress was made with
the negotiations, and the conference
was broken up on January II. In
the meantime. new republic had
sprung from the side of Russia. 1t
was Ukraine, a territory extending
along the Rumanian and Galician
frontier from the Black Sea north
ward to Cholm, in ancient Poland.
With this republic, the Central En-
pires made peace late in January.
The failure of the Bolshevik au-
thoritiss to reach. any agreement with
the Germans resulted in the renewal
of hostilities on February 18, and
the German armies moved forward
once more.
