Expected That Enemy VIII Succeed In

The FrancoAmerican troops, con.
tinuing their pressure on the Ger.

reached and crossed the Ourcq river
and penetrated the town OF Fere.En.
Tardenois, one OF the great German
supply bases for the enemy troops in

Meantime on the center OF the al.

attacks by the French have forced
the enemy TO give further ground and
enabled the French to capture sew.

from the south the cavalry has been

Gus tanks and machine guns in pro-

Meantime. airplanes are flying over
the retreating hordes dropping bombs
while the big allied guns from the

into the densely congested area
The retreat OF the enemy has by
no means become roui, and so long
