not called up simultaneously to face
major offensive against another
sector of the line not many miles
away.
There is a note of conservatism
evident in the language of the
French official statement and in the
comment of the Partisan press on
the newest phase of the struggle.
1t is evident the results of General
Manguin's mighty efforts are awaited
before anything more than a mere
counter stroke against the enemy is
Chronicled.
Tho next few days will determine
the exact character of the operation
now going on between the Aisne and
the Marne. Even if it comes to
. halt to-day, it seems probable it
viii have accomplished it's purpose
the relieving of the pressure
against Rheims, for General Luden-
dorff probably will not continue his
offensive on the south while his
right flank and rear are seriously
menaced.
Morale in Danger
4 matter of intense interest is
the manner in which the Germans
meet the new onslaught. There have
been reports relative to the low
morale of the enemy forces, but
these must be proved by actual de-
Velopments before they can be gem
orally credited. If the Germans hold
the allies after having been flung
back with a rapidity that seemed
like disorganization, the fighting
qualities of the enemy troops must
be considered to be as good as could
be desired by the German high COM
mand.
SO far as reports tell of the situa-
ton the German advance from Dor
mans to Rheims has come to a halt.
This is the situation, likewise, east
of Rheims.
Raiding operations are reported on
the Montdidier- Noyon and Woeyre
fronts and also along the British
lines.

GREAT VICTORY
NSUJRES NATION
MEN WILL WIN
Realizing Sense That Table Is
Turned on Foe and His
Defeat Near

Washington, July 19.-The nation
to-day came to a realization that its
army in CO operation with the gallant
soldiers of France had won it's first
great victory on European soil The
American people saw clearly that
American soldiers, many of whom
were in civilian life, ~ months ago,
had received their first baptism of
fire and in six hours had won more
ground taken more prisoners and
captured more war supplies from
the enemy than did the Germans in
three days of carefully prepared
offensive along the Marne early in
the week
The belief was expressed in Off
clal circles that the tables had been
definitely turned
Events of to-day. however, were
awaited eagerly. It was realized
thtt unless the Germans were com
pietelv demoralized by the surprise
attack on the twenty five mile front
sitter fighting would ensue to-day

Gain Six Miles

The railroad leading south from
scissors to Chateau Thierry thus is
under the direct fire of the allied
artillery while the railroad leading
from Courmelles to Longpont has
been cut. Further south the allies
have reached Chouy, within seven
miles of Nanteuil Notre Dame, on
the only other line of railroad upon
which the Germans can rely for
supplies for their forces along the
Marne from Chateau Thierry to Dor
mans. Thus the railroad communi-
cations of the enemy are placed in
extreme jeopardy.
Germans Checked
While it is much too early to con-
slider the allied smash against the
German lines as a great success, eX-
cept insofar as it may we'll serve to
complete the check of the German
offensive, the results obtained dur
ing the first days fighting may be
reasonably compared with those re-
ported by the Germans after the
first days fighting south of the
Aisne in their great attack on
May 81.
The allies advances at all points
to an average depth of little less
than three miles. They captured,
according to unofficial reports, 49,
600 prisoners and one hundred can
non. The number of men involved
is not known.
The Germans with 1926, 900 troops
engaged, broke through the allied
line north of the Aisne They cap
tured 10000 prisoners, according to
their own figures. Berlin did not
report the capture of cannon in its
statement on the first days fighting.
French Conservative
While it is altogether proba BILE
that the allies did not face such
strong positions as those held by
the French along the Chemin des
DANES, the actual results of the
first days battle compare very fav-
orably with the German effort on
May %, when the Germans were

All France
Thrilled at
Battle NewS
By Associated Press


Paris, July 19.-France is thrilled
by the news that on the fourth day
of the German offensive French and
American troops snatched the initia-
tive from the. enemy by surprise and
soundly beat fifteen of his divisions
on a thirty-mile front. 1t is felt that
Thursday marked the ebb of Ger
many's offensive power.
So completely were the Germans
surprised that the Franco-Americans
advanced in places two miles in the
first hour. They continued their
progress in the afternoon in the
teeth of growing resistance. The
average depth of the gains for the
whole day was between three and
four miles. At some points the al
lies advanced five miles, according to
latest advices from the front.
The allied gains southwest of Sois-
sons will prevent the enemy from u.s.
ing the railways to Loan, Chateau
Thierry and Rheims and along the
Aisne, which are of vital import
ance to him. scissors is the key
stone of the German system and IL
is expected the enemy will throw in
the heaviest forces in an attempt to
fend off the present danger.

FOR AIDING NEEDY FRENCH.
Miss Anne Morgan of New York
Lectures at Home of Mrs. Letter.

Plans for restoration of French
towns and villages by the American
fund for French wounded were dis
cussed by Miss Anne Morgan OF New
York at a meeting Sunday evening at
the home, of Mrs Joseph Letter here.
In her lecture Miss Morgan dwelt on
the necessity for immediate work to
furnish inhabitants of devastated re-
gions of France with places to live and
with implements with which to culti-
that such restoration does not mean
the complete restoration and rebuild
ing of towns and villages at this time.
Criticism frequently heard in this
country that it is too early to begin re-
construction work in France are based
on a misapprehension." Miss Morgan
said. The American fund members
have nc idea of the literal restoration
of the French towns. which would be
at this time preposteroas."
