Germany has begun her third great
drive, starting Tuesday morning. Up
to the time this is written, Wednes-
day evening, the Allies have the stu
alton we'll in hand and there appears
to be no immediate danger of the Huns
breaking thru. The drive was started
in two places, one on forty mile
front and directly towards Paris. This
has been narrowed to a twenty mile
front and while the German drive has
not been completely checked, it is
abating and the Allies have begun to
counter attack on the German wings.
