Germany Forced to
Intercede to Settle
Turko-Bulgar Ro.u

WASHINGTON, June 1b.--Confrma-
tion Of the reported retirement of
Premier Radoslavotf Of Bulgaria, who
since the outbreak of the war, is lack
ing here, but diplomatic advces have
indicated that the extreme tension be-
tween the Bulgarian and Turkish gov
ernments over conflicting territorial
demands produced such crisis as to
require the intervention of Germany
and Austria Hungary.
Emperor Charles Of Austria Hungary
visited Sofia and Constantinople last
month on a mission of concillation, but
the results of his efforts to satisfy both
Turks and Bulgars have not become
known The resignation Of Radios lavotf,
if confirmed, it was declared in Entente
circles here to-day, would mean that
Bulgaria had been compelled to recede
Turkey the territory the latter ceded
to Bulgaria in 1915 as part Of the price
required by Bulgaria for her partci-
patton in the war. Turkey has de-
manded the return of the territory
since Rumana's defeat and the parti-
toning of her territories.
Excerpts from the Bulgarian press of
all shades OF opinion received here to-
day, through Balkan diplomatic chan
nels, indicate the tension in the rela-
tons between Bulgarian and Turkey.
The "Dnevnik" says:
"Our colleagues of Constantineple
have brought up a series of questions
which may produce very undesirable
consequences. They seem at CONSTANT
nople to be supporting Turkian nation
al aims rather than those Of the
Alliance.

PARIS. June 15.-~-The lu.l along the

sidered here merely period of prepa-
ration for new attacks. The six days
OF terrible fighting east Of Montddier

French Reinforced Daily

Far from being crippled, the
French forces are being daily more
powerfully reinforced by our troops.
and, backed by British doggedness,
they are fully ready for the next
stage Of the battle, which in all prob
ability will continue throughout tho
summer.
Revised estimates of the German
strength show that he has patched
his shattered regiments and bat
talions together from remnants Of
others until perhaps he has forty
divisions which remain to be thrown
into the furnace.
In the meantime, at French and
British ports there are almost daily
scenes of disembarking American
troops, whose kind have already
given proof on the battlefield that
they are worth being thrown into
the fighting any moment the occa-
sion demands.

ROME. June 15.--Pope Benedict
made remonstranee Immediately
after being informed that the Austrian
authorities had ordered the requisition
of all bells in churches throughout the
territory occupied last year and, urged
that the order be revoked, according
to the "Corriere dTtalia," the semi
official organ of the Vatican. The
paper adds:
Unsatisfactory results obtained under
similar circumstances in Belgium, as
certified by "a letter from Cardinal Mer-

lavoff, in consequence Of the peace me-
gotiations at Bucharest, threaten to
lead to a crisis, according to the
"Koelnische Zeitung," which says that
the discomfort is not confined to the
political opponents of Radoslavotf. 1t
is feared in government circles that
Bulgaria is missing an opportunity to
annex the whole Of Dobrudja and Bull
garian districts in Macedonia, which
were given to Greece in 1918.
Attacks are also being made on the
Quadrupls Alliance, which is crcdite d
with an intention of supporting enemy
Greece rather than friendly Bulgaria
and rewarding Rumania rather than
Bulgaria.
The newspaper adds that it was ow-
ing to these criticisms that Radoslavoff
published the formal agreement with
the Central Powers. by which the lat
ter consented. in the event of Greek
attack, that Bulgaria should annex part
of Greek Macedonia.

fighting. | went to see to-day the
particular group of bombers who
who have contributed their bit since
June l by dropping $50 tons of high
explosive pellets on the German or
CARNATIONS where the military need
seemed greatest, who have fought
their way in and out countless times,
stopping on the way to bring down
eighteen enemy airplanes and on
some occasions to take part in the
red hot infantry fight, wherein they
saved some critical point in the line.
A few days ago this group of
bombers was en route to selected
point of the enemy rear, when they
noticed below French force holding
farm and valiantly battling,
though completely surrounded. The
farm was on important terrain, so
the bombers abandoned their first
objective and Immediately went to
work. With bombs they broke the
line surrounding the farm, and then
noticed a large assembly of enemy
forces in the tffing, grouping for a
fresh attack. Swooping low, they
sailed into the reinforcements with
bombs and machine guns, completely
scattering hundreds of Boches in
every direction.

French Improve Line
Northeast of Forest
OF Viilers-Cot otterets
(By The Aasoo;nted Press,


WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN
FRANCE, June Is (Noon) French
troops to-day carried out a successful
local operation for the Improvement of
their line around the northeastern
corner of the forest of Villers-C -Cotter-
cts, on the westerly side of the Marne
salient.
Aside from this, the infantry on
neither side has given much sign of
life on any part Of the front in the last
thrty-siX hours
On the other hand, the enemy big
guns have been very lively, especially
between the river Aisne and Chateau
Thierry, on the Marne. This activity
appeared to be either for the purpose
of covering the relief of their ex-
hausted divisions or by way of prepara
ton for another thrust westward.

"Ihat the Germans contemplate

Gus manner in which every man

front. The bulk of the German enemy
is no better than the Allies, but their
assault troops show the benefit of train
ing which the Anglo French troops
have never received, because the Allies
have never had sufficient numerical
superiority over the enemy.
Before the end of August the worst
year of the war will be over. In the
mean time terrific fighting must be
expected. No soldier or statesman can
forecast the future, though the Allies
have every reason for regarding the
future confidently.

by the Italians with artillery and ma
chine gun fire and bayonet charges.
The frequent encounters were spir-
tied. Notwithstanding the toll and the

For Hindenburg
Germany finally emerged from the

Continued from page l

Germany finally emerged from the
war victorious.
But nothing can compensate the
German people for their multitudes
of dead living still unburied to-day
behind the narrow bulge of the
Montdidier-N -Noyon line where Won
Hutier's mass system proved to be
the bloodiest slaughter in the entire
European war,
have already told how during
the last six days the French cannon
and machine guns levelled the
closely ranked gray-green figures
down like moving machine cuts
hay. The French burial squads are
still working on the terrain retaken
in the counter attacks, putting these
corpses under ground. The work is
terrible. but it is necessary. 1t is
probable that the German troops on
the other side of the line are en-
gagged in the same kind of work
During this last great battle the
people Of Germany have not been
permitted to know of these scenes.
The German leaders dare not tell
them. The soldiers who know are
being carefully herded away from
the interior Of Germany.
Two Men Survive Company
Even the desperately wounded lie
in hospitals in Belgium, beyond
which country is built an impene-
trable wall of silence through which
the real truth cannot filter.
I have proof before me Of the
losses of some Of the individual Ger
man units. For example, one Ba-
varian company, though composed
only Of ninety men, lost fifty in the
first day Of fighting. On the fol.
lowing day two bewildered survivors
taken prisoner said that they were
lllC ldSC VI JItC COili JdIly.
The valiant French, who fought
this battle unaided by a sinple Allied
soldier, on June IL, the third day af-
ter the continuous assault, launched
a counter action along a front of
twelve kilometres between the viii
lagos of Domfront and Wackaelon
penetrating the enemy's lines, talk
ing over one thousand prisoners,
many light and heavy guns and
much booty. 1t is here that they
still are burying the German dead.
Local attacks elsewhere have
given the French choice position,
which they confidently hold.
The third stage of the battle has
been a great defeat for Hindenburg,
1t was a broken bugaboo that the
Won Hutier system Of mass attack
could not be stopped; it has eaten
into the enemy reserves enormously
it has weakened the enemys morale
and strengthened the Allied conf
dence in their ability to hold tn:
enemy until the American balance
of power is ready to participate ir
the final knockout blow.
Captured documents prove that
Hindenburg planned to take Com
piegne by June 10, from where hs
would launch more mass attacks
down the Disc toward Paris. To
day the German line is seven and 8
half miles north of Compiegne.
1t would be rank gamble to fore
!. cast the exact sector where next the
Won Hutier system of attack will l..
launched, but it is certain that j
will come within the shortest pos

Leaving a few machines soaring

others fled for some fresh supplies
with which to pay attention to the

the need might be.

Flying closely together, the squads
travel in formation, giving the best
protection against attack. The group
visited has heen or the go night
and day since tho German offensive
began in March. 1t has fought
many pitched battles with the enemy
in force, but never over the French
lines.
The German airmen wait until the
entire group has crossed the line,
and then come up in an effort to
break up the formation. So far they
have paid heavily for the trouble.
Fought Many Columns
During the enemy mass attacks
this group has reported many enemy
columns of troops congregating for
battle and has spread death and de-
struction among the gray-green SOL
diers. When their bombs have been
exhausted they have swept lower and
played machine guns on small groups

Perhaps twenty attacks have been
frustrated by this one group alone
engaged in this most important but
highly dangerous work. There is no
chance for individual spectacular
fighting. Every squad plane follows
his leader, every squad leader fol-
lows the group leader, of which the
commandant is the outstanding fig
ure in French aviation, who is one Of
the few French "ace" military avia-
tors left. He is an "ace," with seven
