they apparently do not hold the en-
tire city, the French are pressing

pied Singly. less than eight miles

front the French armies continue
the rapid advance of the last three
( days. At no point are the French
more than thirty miles from the
Belgian frontier and at most places
the distance over which they still
have to drive the invader is much
less.
The capture Of Sedan definitely
+ closes the gap south of the Belgian
/ border through which the Germans
might attempt to withdraw their
harTied columns, row in full re-
treat from the region between the
OiSe and the Aisne rivers. It marks
the eliminating triumph Of Ameri-
can arms il the fighting which has

treat into German Lorraine,
