Associated Press War Summary

Associated Press War Summary
 In the battle field of the Marne, where week ago the Germans were hurling their masses of troops against the western side of the wedge they had driven into the allied lines in the battle that began on March 26, the Teutons are now standing vir- tually on the defense. In the Cha French troops are participating in a reaction on the extreme tip of the salient and are making progress in this important region. The British are engaged on the other side of the wedge between the Malne and Rheims.
 Hit Tip of Advance.
 While the operations take the na- ture of local attacks, they have had their effect in driving the Germans back from the pcint they reached on the crest of the wave that carried them from far on the road to Paris. The attack, which began just to the northwest of Chateau Thierry, are spreading northwest along the line and everywhere the allies report ground recovered from the enemy. The rush of the American marines and the French on Thursday after neon had not continued to gain ground as fast as it did at the incept- ion of the two violent attacks by the Germans and have repulsed the ene- my in decisive fashion.
 Hun Artillery Active.
 Reports from the whole battle line in France are to the effect that there bo hnov, part of the German artillery in sever al sectors of the front. Notable among the regions under bombard- ment is the line between Noyon and Montdidier. It is along this line that a heavy enemy offensive has been ex- pected by military experts since the momentum of the German advance from the Aisne has died away. When the Germans pushed west from St. Quentin late in March and early in April, their line from Noyon to Mont didier was almost equal to importance to that in front of Amiens The French forces were rushed to this front and fought savagely to stop the German advance and retake ground which was of stragetic and tactcal importance.
 Threaten American Positions.
 At the same time the Woevre sector, just to che southeast of Verdun is claiming attention. Large movements of enemy troops in the direction of St. Mihiel have been reported by aer- ial observers and there are indica- tions that the positions of the Ameri- cans along this part of the front may be in the storm center of terrific attack soon. The advantages to be gained by the Germans if they succeed in breaking this line are manifold; IS miles west of St. Mihiel is the town of Bar le Due, and Still farther westward, 2S miles away. is Vitary. which would be but stepping stone to a dash to Chalons sur Marne. If the line of St. Mihiel could be broken or driven back very far the whole Verdun sector would be imperiled. It might have to be abandoned.
 Flanders Sector Active
 In the Flanders sector. which has been quiet since the beginning of the attack along the Aisne. the Germans on Wednesday sought to improve their
