Fourth DAY Of StruaaIe.

(By Frank Charlton. 1nternationa
News Service Cable Editor.)
Although the French have given
up scissors, the Anglo French
armies, supported by powerful 70.
serves, are holding tight to their
| positions west and southwest OF
| scissors and in the mighty battle
| zone west of Rheims
! The battle continued all night, with
| the Germans hurting themselves in a
series of furious assaults against the
| allied positions. The struggle, which
is now in it's fourth day. has taken on
greater violence than ever marked the
great drives on the Picardy and Elan
ders battlefields.
The new battle line, which Is about
eighteen miles south OF the old front
as 1t existed last summer, now forms a
salient extending southeastward from
Soissons past Belleu and Loupeigne to
Broulllet, the apex, thence In north
easterly direction past Savigny and
Thillois to Brimont, north OF Rheims,
where 1t joins the old line.
The magnificent valor of the French
and British soldiers has never been
shown to better advantage than In
stemming the German attacks west of
Rheims. where superior numbers were
me- and thrown back.
The swaying tide Of battle carried
the line southwark past Rheims,
throwing a semi circle around this
battle scared city Although Rheims
Is menaced with capture by the Ger
mans, ii Is too early to predict den
nitely that the city will fall.
French military critics believe that
the objective Of the Germans is the
important railway line which runs
from Paris TO Chalons. But that line
is twenty-three miles south of the
present battle line and there is little
likelihood Of the Germans going much
further, according to the indications
today.
Employing his old time tactics, Won
Hindenburg used vast masses OF men,
sending them into the cauldron OF bat
tie in dense formation. Caught under
the seething fire of French and British
machine guns and artillery, the ranks
wthered away.

tAssociated Press.)

Paris, May 30--Increasing violence
marks the progress Of the 1ghtinE
south of the Aisno The Germans nro
fightlng against time and are throw
ing every ounce OF weight OF man
power into the struggle.
In the center the enemy has again
pushed forward, but his efforts to
broaden his advancing front have met
with less success. The allied wings
have been obliged TO give some ground
This action wa scarricd out slowly and
the fun price was exacted from the
enemy.
Scissors has gone and the British
have fallen back toward Rheims. but
in either case the enemy has only won
a couple OF miles Of territory.
In competent circles there Is quiet
confidence In the outcome and signs
are not lacking that the advancing
waves shortly will be stemmed. Unity
OF command puts the allies In n better
position than they were In the March
offensive. ON that occasion French
reinforcements came into action on the
third day and on the eighth the Ger
mans were stopped definitely. Today
things should go more quickly.
Guns Left on North.
The Germans have been Obliged 20
leave their guns on the northern side
OF the original line, which can be
crossed only at certain number of
points which are highly vulnerable TO
allied airplancs. The enemy Is thus
prevented from reaping the full bene-
fits OF his rapid advance. Meanwhile
the allied reserves are maHsing at Ger
tain points without any of the confu-
sion that attended the similar move
ment In March. SO well perfected are
the arrangements that nm entire divi-
sion can be moved by motor truck
from the Somme 10 Rheims In forty
eight hours and arrive without but
ton missing.

ALLIES CONTEST EVERY
FOOT OF FORFEITED AREA
Desperate Resistance Appears to Have Not
Halted Boches' Advance Greatly, Although
They Suffered Extreme Losses Taking
of Rheims MOmentarily Expected.
ASSOCIATED Prcss)

(ASsoclateu
Gen Foch's reserves have begun to come into
action in the fight against the powerful German
thrust southwark from the Aisne, and the enemy
is finding his progress increasingly difficult in
consequence
Again the allied fanks are standing firm, and
while Scissors has been lost on the west, Rheims
is still holding out on the easterly edge Of the
battle front.
The chief progress of the Germans revealed
in today's official reports was in the center of
their advance where some three miles additional
ground have been covered from Loupeigne,
twelve miles north of the Marne, to Fere-En-
Tardenois
The blunt edge of the German wedge is shown
to run here from Fere- En- -Tardenois, about ten
and one-half miles directly east to Vezeilly, ff-
teen and one-half miles southwest of Rheims
Along this line the Germans are about
eighteen miles south of the Chenin des Danes,
giving them penetration of approximately that
distance at the beginning of the fifth day of their
offensive
Sweeping onward in dense masses the Ger
mans have advanced fifteen miles in the center
of the line between scissors and Rheims. On the
allied left Scissors has fallen, while Rheims, on
the right, is in grave danger, the Franco-British
troops having retired to within less than two
miles of the famous city.
Desperate as has been the resistance of the
French and British, especially the French on the "
left, and the heavy losses suffered by the enemy,
