From drives on wide fronts Ger
mar offensive deteriorated into iso-
lated attacks between Scissors and
Chateau Thierry and eastward on
Marine in direction of Rheims. Enemy
using large electives and great num-
bers of guns. but held almost every
where from further progress, and on
various sectors forced to assume de-
fensive against vicious blows delivered
by American French and British
troops.
Between the Aisne and Ourcq Ger
mans penetrated Pernant, and south
of village French coded a little ter
rain. In Ourcq valley also took town
of Neuilly La Porterie. seven and one
half miles northwest of Chateau Hhier-
ry. in fighting during which place
changed hands several times. Be.
tween Disc and Aisne Germans unable
to advance anywhere. Loss of Ger

SUNDAY

Strength of General Foch's reserves
felt by armies of German crown prince
in Battle for Paris" East of line
running from scissors to Chateau
Thierry, where Germans Saturday
gained several additional villages and
attempted to proceed westward, oppo-
sition imposed by newly strengthened
lines. and, with terrific smashes French
forces recaptured Longpont, Corey and
Troesnes, points in center of line lead
ing to forest of Villiers Cotterets,
which seems present objective of en-
envy. German drive brought within
less than four miles Of villers Cot
terets on SoissoIs-Paris railway; 40
miles northeast of French capital.
Southeast of villers Cotterets, Ger
mans captured, lost, then recapture
village Of Faverolles. This represents
farthest west advance.

Pershing's report says: In fighting
northwest of Chateau Thierry our
troops broke up attempts of enemy to
advance south through Neuilly woods
and by counter attack drove him back
to north Of woods. On the Marine
front German battalion crossed at
Jaulgonne, was counter attacked by
French and American troops and
forced to retreat to right bank. Pa
trolling was active in Picardy and
Lorraine. In the Woevre we shelled
enemy positions, using gas.

harding continue. On Amiens front
Germans heavily bombarding British

Determined attack against Ameri-
cans last night. Preceded by heavy
bombardment, Germans came in waves
and penetrated American trenches,
but quickly elected, leaving many
dead. Two earlier attacks Monday
and three Sunday had same result.

Raid had not ended with yesterdays

SATURDAY

With Paris as German objective Al
lied commander disposes of reserves
to resist crown princes armies. Eff
fort of foe to widen salient fails with
heavy losses. Rheims still safe. In
desperate fight poilus retake Chaudun
and force foe back, inflicting terrific
punishment. In engagements near
Scissors several hundred prisoners
taken by French. Teutons using
tanks to support infantry attacks. AL
lied a~viators do deadly work behind
enemy lines.
With left wing touching the Marine
and right linking up with battle front
at Noyon. Germans in new offensive
hammer allied line with hope of crush
ing scissors salient and opening up
way to Paris by way Of the Marine and
the Disc. Reported to be using three
quarters of a million men in this eff
fort. Enemy occupies northern bank
of Marine for stretch of dozen miles
east from Chateau Thierry, no serious
attempt to force crossing, only efforts
in this direction being made in small
force. These vigorously repulsed by
French, Main trend of enemy effort
is westward and with purpose fully
developed General Foch is disposing
his forces to resist it. Already the
French in considerable strength in
path of crown princes drive west of
scissors road to Chateau Thierry.
Germans apparently abandoned, tenn
porarily at least, efforts to retake the
ground captured by Americans at Can.
tigny. Gen. Pershing's communique
issued tonight said day was quiet at
all points occupied by the American
troops. Shooting down of another
hostile airplane reported. Aside from
aerial activity in Toul sector, reports
from various fronts in which Ameri.
cans are stationed indicate no unusual
events in last tw%enty-four hours. Ar.
tillery activity around Luneville and
Toul has been far below normal.
News from Italian front reflects
opinion that long expected Austrian
Hungarian offensive is likely to open
shortly. Italy declared thoroughly in
readiness and probably better off than
ever in way Of modern war material.

THURSDAY

Slowly plunge of German crown
princes armies being halted by the
French and British. Momentum of
German masses not as yet spent but
notable s~lackening in advance during
last day. Chief efforts of Germans
now seem to be widening of gap torn
in positions of allies between Pinch
and Brimont. This work progressing
slowly against desperate resistance Of
allied forces.
French falling back from limits of
Scissors. have stood ground against
attacks of enemy and German official
statement fails to show material adj
vances there during days fighting.
Situation extremely serious, has not
assumed critical aspect of fighting late
in March. Allies resisting enemy's
attacks stubbornly, giving ground
when overpowered, and always main

now approaching valley of the Marine,
nearest approach to that avenue to-
ward Paris being at village of Vezillly.
Americans who captured Cantigny
beat off attack after attack by Ger
mans. Large German forces gathered
to retake village, and launched say
age assaults at Americans but latter
with rifle and machine gun fire moved
down advancing Teutons, while Am
erican artillery smashed German for
nations with barrage fire. Along Am.

IN PARIS

Announcement is made by the Chris.
tian Science War Relief and Camp
Welfare Committee of The First
Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston.
of the arrival in Paris of a party Of
ten relief workers, SEN to France from
the headquarters of the Church of Bos-
ton. These representatives will be
located in various parts of France to
extend the war relief work carried on
through Christian Scientists in France
since the beginning Of hostilities.
Funds for this purpose have been
contributed by Christian Scientists
throughout the world, and have been
used to relieve suffering due to the
war among the families in France and
other countries affected.
This aid has not been confined to
Christian Scientists, but has been ex.
tended to all worthy of help.
The members of the party just sent
to France are all experienced in the
war relief and camp welfare activities
carried on by Christian Scientists in
the United States since it's entrance
into the European war, and this ex-
perience will add greatly to the eff
cient administration of the funds in
the stricken districts.

WEDNE SDAY

Violent attacks on 30-mile battle
front running from scissors eastward
to northwest of Rheims. German ar
mics force back French and British
on nearly every sector. Fortified town
of Scissors, extreme left flank of al
lied battle line, occupied by enemy,
though French still holding to western
e~nvirons, through which railway lead
ing to Paris and Compeigne. Rheims,
like Scissors, doomed to fall into

Another defeat inflicted on enemy
by Americans far to east, in Toul Sec

pieces with machine guns. Later, on
another sector under heavy barrage
fire. Germans managed to invade
American trench. None of them re-
turned. In hand to hand fighting nine
Germans killed outright and one died
from wounds. Four made captives.
In Flanders and Picardy Germans

the German people to know that its
confidence in the spirit of the troops
can never be disappointed.
