FRENCH ARMY, Nov. By The As

army attacked this morning on front
Of five to six miles between the Aisne
aud the Argonne in conjunction with
the yNirst American Army. on his right.
The immediate objective Of the French
commander is to clear the enemy out OF
The thickly wooded and much broken
massif OF the Argonne. the last natural
fortress which remains 10 him until he
reaches the Ardennes.
Ever since September - the Ger
mans have clung TO the Argonne, in
spite of the unremitting endeavors of
the French army on the west and the
Americans on the east OF the forest.
After series OF extremely difficult
aud hotly contested operations General
Gouraud has succeeded in establishing
himself on the left bank OF the Aisne
between the villages OF Terror and
Falaise, a distance of about five miles.
With the river at their backs and
little more than mile from the Ger
man trenches between them and the
sorest. the operation was one of con-
siderable difficulty. The night was
spent in throwing bridges across the
Aisne in preparation for the passage OF
an important force with its material.
