The three familiar little monks that

the guiding stars of the North Dakota
Council OF Defense in adopting q

effect that Frazier's $4,000 majority
represented the pr0-German vote in
North Dakota.
The resolutions recite that 1T has
been brought to the attention of the
council of defense that many persons,
several organizations. and some news
papers in this state have made ut
terances and statements, by speech,
publication and otherwise, which by
their terms serve to charge, insinuate
and infer that certain persons and
classes of our people within this. state
are rO-German and disl0yal, and
which further thereby serve to create
or incite dissenti0n and discord among
our people,"
Record for Loyalty.
The council then recites North Da-
k0ta's record for loyalty in supporting
every activity of our federal govern
ment, to which the council points with
pride, and the council finds that it
is vitality essential that no acts or ut
terances by our people should be per-

justly to charge any OF our people

to render q lack of full cooperation

ate objective of the drive Rheims is
a secondary objective; Its fall would
merely wipe out an ugly salient in the
German line, from which the allies
could menace the German TANKS. i
For this reason the battle was be-
gun to the east of Rheims as we'll az
west OF it,, to encompass the city and
wipe out the peril to the flanks of the
advancing German army. With its cap
ture the Germans will throw the whole
force of their blow at Paris,
Defenses Before Paris.
There are two strongly fortified
towns held by the French south and
southeast Of Rheims which will hold
up the German advance for some time
These are Epernay and >ChalOns.sur.
'Marne.s. Near the latter city an Ameri.
can force is in the battle line.
If the Germans can drive the allies
from these two towns. the way is 0p-
en- before them for a crossing Of the
Marne on the whole fr0ntbefore Paris,
and another sweep to the south of the
river such as took place in 1914.
Before Paris, however, are four
other large cities which the Germans
must csapture before their menace to
Paris can become real one. They
must form a sort OF outlying defense
system to the capital, covering a
front of some so miles.
These are C0mpiegne, known as
"the gate to Paris" which the Ger
mans tried vainly to reach last month,
Senlis which lies on the river Non.

ment by long-range naval guns. It
was the point nearest to Pals reached
by the Germans in their great rush on
the capital in 1914. On the line from
Compiegne to. Meaux. Gen. Foch is be.
lieved to have marshalled his reserves
in expectation Oft German attack.
That Gen. Foch expected the drive
to come on this front was shown by
the fact that the "nibbling' tactics he
has adopted after each Of the four
1918 German drives were this time
being brought into play on this front.
The French, American and British
reserves are massed behind it, to be
thrown in when Gen. Foch puts his
hand on the map, as he did in March,
and says:
"This far. they will advance, and
no farther"
Like the last two offensives, there
was little element OF surprise in the
current attack. It was expected on
the front where it came. If there was
any surprise at all about it, it lay in
the fact that the drive came few
days before it was expected.
This, it is believed, was due to the
Russian situation. The German war
chiefs had planned to deliver their.
final great smash about July 20, but
the activity of the allies in meeting

a change in plans to center the at

front.
