(By Associated Press)


Apparently the French line
has been forced back slightly
on the northern edge of this
front, as the Paris official re-
port of the battle mentions the
town of Moreuii as forming a
part Of the line here. This
place is on Avre river, about IL
miles southeast of Amiens, and
it's occupation by the Germans
would advance them slightly
nearer that allied base.
On the southerly side of the
salient the battle is raging to
point beyond Lassiny, which
lies some ii miles east of Mont
didier. There is no indication
of any change along this part
Of the front. The German as
sault in this region seems a
logical outcome of the strategic
position in which the Teutons
find themselves as their lines.

To the north along the British

changed. In general the British line
stands today In almost exactly the
same position as yesterday.

the French and British lines join,

The front was indicated by yester-
days official report as running near
these places and the recession, being
but short one, still leaves the en-
emy advance approximately IL miles
south of Amiens.
Heavy attacks on Demuin, a little
further north were beatern Off To
the north of the Somme there was
only local fighting. The report that
the Germans are digging themselves
in between Thiepvsl and La Boiselle
in the region of Albert may be sig
nificant in view Of the general lull
in the intensity Of the fighting along
the northern part of the front
The possibility suggests itself that,
foiled in their attempt to drive a
wedge between the French and Brit
ish armies or effect break in the al
lied line, the Germans may be making
an attempt to restablish their trench

vance. either for defensive purposes
