Jensen was announcing the complete vote to the few who fingered In the town hall for this official clos- ing of the election contest.
 Returns from the Second district reached the town hall 25 minutes af- ter the polls closed. the Sixth district reported its vote five minutes later and the Greeneville district was last to come in 45 minutes after the polls closed in that district.
 Candidates Hear Returns.
 Both candidates, MT. Desmond and MT. McNeely, as well as Mayor Allyn L. Brown, were on hand at the town hall while the returns were coming in and MT. Desmond's S face was wreathed in smiles as he received congratula tions as it became certain that he was elected with the whole democratic ticket.
 A little later he remarked to gath ering of the political workers that he thought he ought to get along an right; Mayor Brown had agreed to help him in any way possible and Candidate MeNeely had also proffered any services he could perform so that il looked as if he would not lack for help if he needed it.
 Celebration Money for Red Cross.
 In anticipation of the victory that they had expected the democrats had collected a sum of money for the cele- bration but when the newly elected city head heard of the plans he sug- gested that it would be better use of the money to give it to the Red

A most welcome feature cot the
current news from the front is the
announcement that the French, in
a crucial part of the line, at Locre.
have not lost any part of their hold
on this dominating ground They
now have undisputed possession~0f
Locre itself for the first time in
several days and apparently have
killed off the enemy efforts to edge
in around that sector.
The Importance of LocEe lies in
the fact that it guards the ap-
proach TO Mount Rouge, one of the
most valuable hills of the defensive
line. which cannot be taken in flank
as long as LOcre remains in allied
hands. Similarly the allied troops
have stopped the drive toward

Clytte, while the Belgians, who had
two additional German divisions TO

them successfully and prevented
any breach in the line toward the
