Head With Rifle

With the American Army on the
Aisne- Marine Front, July 25.-An
American in a mess outfit shot down
a German aviator during the Franco
American offensive south Of Scissors
by hitting the enemy in the head
with a rifle bullet.
The German swooped down and at
tackled the wagon train with a ma
chine gun, flying low to make his
aim certain. The panic stricken
mules caused confusion and the driv-
ers and soldiers had their hands full
to control the animals. The young
soldier leaped from a wagon as the
enemy flyer came near and shot him
The machine fell nearby.
A German lieutenant and IS men,
who were captured by the Americans
were questioned concerning the re-
mainder Of the battalion. The Off
Ger replied:
"Those 1S are all that are alive
The lieutenant said the speed of the
AMERICANS was the biggest surprise
of his army experience. He said the
Americans even outclassed the Ger
mans when the latter were attacking
the Russians and added that, he was
glad to be a prisoner.

Taken Seriously
fBr Associated Press.N

Washington, July 25.-The mobil-
ization Of the Russian army, as an
nounced in reports today from Mos
COW via Amsterdam, is not regarded
as a matter of serious moment by
state department officials. In some
quarters it was regarded as simply
another effort to raise the draft army
which Leon Trotzky, Bolshevih min
lister Of war declared to be the only
solution to the military chaos Of the
Russian republic.
The suggestion was made that the
Russian government might send it's
new army to drive out the allied and
American forces in--the Mourmarsk
peninsula, but it was explained this
would be impossible as it would mean
the transportation OF the army 500
miles over extremely difficult terri
tory and without means Of supply. >

Downward Curve In Man

Been Reached
TOTAL FORCE rs
~ 21O DIVISIONS
Each Unit Has Been In
Battle At Least Twice
This Year
Bv Associated Press,)

London, July 25!-On the western
front of the Soissons- Rheims salient,
the Allied forces have advanced to
an average depth of three miles on a
12-nlile front during the last two
days. , There were no new develop
ments this morning in the battle
area, according to advices from the
field. The situation was considered
quite satisfactory for the Allies.
The reports show that the German
high command has thus far engaged
81 divisions in the battle, representa-
tive of groups Of the German armies
from Flanders to Alsace. The 81
divisions are nearly a third Of the
available German army.
The conclusion is drawn that the
enemy is being hard put to it for re-
serves. In authoritative circles here
the view is expressed that Germany
has reached what might be called
the downward curve in her man
power This applies to Prince Rup-
precht's army as well as to the rest
of the German army and it explains
why Prince Rupprecht is not inclined
to take the offensive.
This drop in German manpower is
not q sudden occurrence. It has
been known to the Allied military
fantry units have been weakened by
the withdrawal OF storm troops and
by heavy losses.
With the French Army in France,
July 25.-Greater efforts than ever
before have been exacted this year
by German army chiefs from the
troops under their command. All di-
visions have been called upon to
make at least double effort. The
correspondent is able to demonstrate
the terrific nature OF the task thrown
on the German soldiers by the desire
OF the German emperor to crush the
French and their armies before
American troops arrived in sufficient
numbers to turn the balancel
During last year Germany pos
sessed on the western front between
160 and 10 divisions. The most OF
these were engaged twice and some
three times during. the entire 10
months, having in the meantime been
reconstructed.
