 In a supplementary official statement issued this afternoon, the French war office says:
 Since the opening of artillery bom- bardment July IS, the day of the French counter offensive on the front betwee nthe Aisne and theh Marne, our tanks have taken q glorious part in the battle After piercing the enemy lines and enabling the infantry to enter the breach, they have not ceased to accom- pany or precede the troops.
 Throughout the battle the tanks have given proof cf their abiligv tp ma neuver and of their incomparable au- dacity. The crews drive the tanks into the hottest parts nf the batta aLd re- 
 the centers of resistance and the bat teries of the enemy under terrific fire from machine guns and special German cannon.
 Their gallantry attained the great est results. Each tank accounted for l5 or 20 German machine guns. Some of the tanks charged the German bat teries, putting the guns out of action and insuring the capture of the can non and material.
 The losses sustained by the Ger mans as a result of the onslaught of the tanks were very high, according to the reports of prisoners. From July 1S to July 23 the tanks took part every day in the attack. Most of them were In action twice, and some returned to the fight four, or five times in the same day. Some tank companies fought for three full days Drivers operated their tanks for 30 hours in the two day period of July 1S19."

PARIS WAS REAL ...-

Washington, April s-Statements
Of German prisoners have convinced
French military critics that the real
objective of the great German Of

from expecting checks which would
make Amiens the goal of bloody end
undecisive battles, the Teutonic high
command sent its forces forward
prepared for rapid advances in open

"In order to alleviate the march
of the troops" says an official dis
patch, received today from France,
"the order was given to prepare for
their departure and to organize the
convoys in such a way as only to
carry with them what was indispen-
sable. The loading carriages, the
munitions to be carried, the equip

been carefully planned as we'll as

country to be invaded. The men
were to carry reserves of food,
enough to last two days and two
TASKS, the usual food for day, fol-
lowing them in rolling kitchens and
provisions for three days in COM
pany conveys.
"In short every arrangement
shows that the GerWan command
had decided to resort to open war
fare. 1t is certain that the military
situation after more than Is days
of operations is one of extreme dis
