Battle Shoulder to Shoulder
With the French and

London Announces
Pershing Is Aiding
Two Regiments of Enei-
neers Known To Be Near
Point of Attack

LONDON, March 26. - American
troops are fighting shoulder to shou1-
der with British and French forces IN
the vicinity of Roye, it was officially
announced here tonight.
Roye now seems to be the centre of
the most intense fighting of the whole
battlefront. 1t is here the enemy has
made his greatest gain in ground and
here he is eXerting himself in the most
desperate effort to break through.
At Roye the Germans have progressed ed
about twenty-five miles southwest from
the vicinity of St. Quentin since the
drive started, last Thursday morning.
The town was lost at 10:3O o'clock this
morning, Haig reported, and battle of
the tiercest character is proceeding lust
to the west and north.
This is the first confirmation from
the Allied side of the Berlin report on
two days that American troops had
taken their places in the line Of the
offensive, although it was known that
two regiments and three companies Of
American engineers were along the
front Hindenburg chose to strike.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-For the
people of the United States, the an
nouncemcnt by the British authorities
that American troops are fighting side

tenders brings the battle closer home.
War Department officials had no word
from General Pershing on the subject,
but were expecting at any moment re-
ports showing the extent of American
participation.

the American forces engaged no one

have been at the British training camps
for months. American engineers are
officially reported, as on the battle
scene.
1t was regarded as entirely possible,
however. that American infantry divi-
sions, already seasoned by front-line
experience in their own sector, had
come up with French reinforcements.
They would be certain to operate with
the French, as their equipment is large
ly French, and they must be supplied
with ammunition and requirements
from the French communication lines.

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN
FRANCE, March 26.-The Germans
to-day followed up their progress of
yesterday at Nesle on the southern
battlefront by launching terrific
assault against the British along a
line running, roughly, between Hat
tencourt and the region of Roye. The
British, cooperating with their
French allies, were meeting the on
slaught doggedly and gallantly. and
sanguinary struggle was in prog
ress this afternoon.
Further north the enemy also de-
veioped fresh offensive movement.
to the south of Suzanne, which lies a
little northeast of Bray-sur-Somme.
But the Germans were pushing with
less strength here than in the south
ern theatre, possibly for strategic
reasons.
These two sectors were the scene
of most important operations to-day.
although fighting was in progress
along the whole Of the great battle
front. On the northern sector, about
Achiet-le- Grand, Logeast Wood and
northward, where such desperate
fighting was waged yesterday, the
Germans had not renewed their at
tacks in strength at a late hour this
forenoon.

BERLIN, Monday, March 25-Ger-
man tanks, reinforced by captured
British tanks, says semi-officia
statement to-day on Sundays fighting
in the West, "took leading part in
breaking the brave enemy resistance" !"
Tanks attached to the German divi-
sions fighting below st. Quentin stood
the test brilliantly, the statement
says. and their mobility was univer-
sally praised. All the tanks which
took part in the fighting are said to
have returned undamagcd. 1t was
mainly due to their Intervention, the
statement continues, that the tena-
cious resistance of the British, espe-
cially the machinc-gun nests, was
broken quickly. Troops manning a
concrete redoubt near .Urvillers arc re-
ported to have been ovcrpowered i'm

WASHINGTON, March &c.
The French government, the War
Department admitted to-day, has
oeen unable to deliver to the
United States army in France the
number of training airplanes it
undertook to manufacture. and as
a consequence the recalling of the
Americans sent to France to re-
ceive their aviation training in
that country has been seriously
considered.
1t has been decided, however, to
permit them to remain in France
but no more will be sent abroad
until after they have received their
instruction in America.
