F:>ENCH AGAIN SMASH
GERMAN LINE IN WEST

While waiting for the German high
command to show its hand in begin.
ming new assault, the allied forces
on the western front are giving the
enemy little opportunity to perfect
his arrangements for launching the
attack. From the Lys sector, on the
north, to the Champagne front, in
Eastern France, there have been sud
den thrusts at the German lines, at
least one of which has made consid-
cradle ground.
Blow By French.
This particular blow was struck by
the French west of the Oise ana
north of the Matz river, on the bat
tlefeld where the Germans were stop
ped short in their attempt to hew
their way through to Compiegne early
in June.
The French advanced along the
Compiegne road northwest of Anthe-
uil and occupied positions on each
side of the highway. The ground
they have taken is important from
defensive standpoint and cuts down
the area which the Germans must
maneuver in this part of the battle
area.
Spirited Fighting.
There seems to have been some
spirited fighting on the British iron,
along La Bassee canal, northwest of
Lens, and north of the Somme, in
the Picardy sector. Berlin announc-
ed that the British were rcpulscd in
frequently repeated attacks in the
former region and adds that their at
tacks north of the Somme broke
down. The French attack at An.
tncuil is merely mentioned in the
official German statement. which says,
however, that attacks in the Villers-
Cotterets and Chateau Thierry sec.
tors were repulscd by the Germans.
Side Issue.
While the fighting on the Mace.
donian and Albanian frontiers must
remain side issue to the great bat
ties which are expected, momcntarly
in France, and possibly Northern.
Italy, the progress Of the French and
Italians along the Albanian coasi
bring that theatre of the war into
consideration.
Rapid strides have been made since
the French and Italian assaults were
launched north Of Aviona July 9Th.
Strong Austrian positions have been
stormed, and it appears that the AL |
lies have been successful in turning
the Austrian right wing. An official
statement from Rome says Italian
cavalry has gained the Austrian rear
and destroyed bridges across the Sc
mini river, which parallels the Voyu-
sa, where the attack was begun. This
marks an advance Of about fifteen
miles.
CZecho- -Slovak forces in Eastern ST.
IBERIA have extended their sphere Of
Influences up the Amur River to Nj
kolayevsI, an important naval sta
tion. The defeated Bolshevik troops,
with their Austro-German allies, are
said to have retired toward Khaba-
rovsk, the capital Of the Mastimc
province.
Gen. Pershing's official statement of
operations along the sectors held by
Americans makes special mention of
heavy German troop movements near
Mulhouse, in Alsace. 1t is also re-
ported that German airmen are very
active in that sector Of the front.

German Reservists Constant Menace TO
United States


German reservists in the United
States constitute an ever present men,
ace to this country. Trained in the
same school as the hordes which over
ran Belgium and committed the afro
cities there, If some method could be
devised by the leaders of the imperial
German spy army in America for call
ing them together and arming them
they would constitute a formidable
armed force within the borders of this
country.
The same reservists were counted
upon by Count Won Bernstorff, the i'm
perial German ambassador, to make
successful invasion of Canada across
the United States border. After the
call was sent out to them to report
at certain places where encampment
sites had been procured a good fight
ing force was available in a remark
ably short time.
Each Of the reservists has served his
time in the kaiser's army. He has been
thoroughly drilled into the duties of
his rank or position in the army. Moth
ing has to be taught them. It is mere
ly necessary to call thin together and
there is an army ready to perform

what ever duties may be required of
them.
The attempted invasion of Canada is
the basis of the tenth episode of THE
Eagles Eye" the motion picture serial
story of the imperial German govern
ment's spies and plots n America by
William J. Flynn. the recently retired
chief of the United States secret SER
vice. The readiness with which these
reservists will respond to any call
from accredited representatives of the
kaiser is shown in startling detail in
the picture. The ease with which the
German in any profession or trade re-
turns to military duty after training
in the German forces Is also shown in
a striking manner. The entire story of
1.-The Invasion of Canada is an inter-
esting and dramatic one. 1t will be
shown at the Bonita theater today.
