captured in the region Of Vaux by the
Americans completely failed. Addi-
tional prisoners remained in our hands.
FRENCH (DAY)-To the west OF
Chateau Thierry local operation car
ried out In conjunction with the
Americans enabled the French to i'm
prove their positions on the front Of
Vaux Hill 20i. The village Of Naux
and the heights to the west OF the viii
lage were captured by American
troops. The number of prisoners
taken during this action exceeds 800,
including five officers.
Raiding operations carried out be-
tween Montdidier and Noyon and to
the east Of Rheims resulted in the TAX
ing OF a few prisoners.
Attempted German raids near Bel

the French FIRE

along the front strong surprise firing
attacks were made preliminary to en-
terprises launched by the enemy,
which ended in their repulse.

activity. Strong patrol attacks by the
enemy south of the Ourcq and west
of Chateau Thierry were frustrated in
