'CRUSH HUNS SOUTH WALL OF DEFENSES Strike Heavy Blows Along Front West of Rheims
 To the Mouse. ENEMY HAS SET
 FIRE TO DOUAI General Pershing's Men Realized Considerable Advances Saturday.

Associated Press Summary
 American and French troops are crushing in the southern wall of the German defenses
 with heavy blows along the front from West of Rheims to the Mouse.
 In the north, under the men, ace of the British pressure
 from Flanders to north of St. Quentin, the enemy has set
 fire to Douai and other towns
 and villages in that area, evi- dently in preparation for re-
 tirement to the French front fer.
 Heavy explosions also have been heard. With the French
 covering the western outlet of the Grhndpre gap through the Argonne forest the Americans in an advance of three miles
 between the Mouse and the
 Aire are rapidly closing up
 the eastern entrance to the
 pass.
 General Pershing's men in smashing blows Saturday, req lized considerable advance
 all along the front and took additional villages and heights from the Germans.
 The enemy resistance was
 most stubborn as on this front the Germans are standing on the kreimhilde line, the last of their prepared defenses.
 The Americans are advanc- ing toward Sedan and the great communication line up- on which German security on the present front depends.
 This important railway is only IS miles from the Ameri- can front. On both sides of the Suippe the American and
 French troops under General Gouraud rapidly are driving the Germans from the heights dominating the Champagne re-
 zion east of Rheims.
 The Germans are retiring to the River Arnes but the American already have reach- ed that stream at St. Etienne. Northwest of Rheims the French have forced several crossings of the Aisne canal endangering the German rear in Champagne.
 The German retirement on a considerable front to a depth of at least five miles in Cham pagne is not unlikely as a re- suit of the successes of Gener. als Gouraud and Berthel0t. From St. Quentin north to the Lys on the front before the important bases of Cam brai, Duoai and Lille, the Brit ish are exerting strong press } ure.
 The Germans are endeavor- , ing to hold on to their posi- , tiOns until the work of de- , vastati0n in their rear is com , pleted.
 North >of St. Quentin the } British have driven further } eastward the apex of the sal- } tent at Beaurev0ir and on Sat- urday captured 1000 prison } CTS.
 , In Belgium the forces under , King Albert maintain their } pressure. Since Sept. 28 the } Belgian, French and British , have advanced nine miles on a 25 mile front and have taken } 1O,5O0 prisoners and $50 guns.

Here is the official statement on the
peace offensive, given out by r. l.
Van Zandt, chairman of the Liberty
Loan central executive committee, OF
Dallas:
IF the latest peace offensive
were allowed to affect the volume
of subscriptions to the Liberty
Loan it might well be regarded
as a German victory. Staggering
and blind with blood, the Ger
man monster is commencing to
whine. Surely now is the time to
stand soidly behind our govern
ment, ready for any eventuality.
With victory assured, | know of
no greater incentive to the pur-
chase Of Liberty Bonds than the
fact that the money invested will
be used so directly and effectively
for the object to the attainment
Of which we have given our own
flesh and blood. / consider that

ed us with valuable contribution
towards the success of the Lib
