HUN TANKS LOST
Recent Drive Proved Superior.
ity of British Machines.
Had Real Battle of Tanks
Hun Attack Was Broken.

London. May 18.-German tanks,
which made their first appearance on
the western front during the recent
German offensive, came off second
best in their encounters with the more
powerful and better managed British
tanks.
Full accounts have just reached the
British general staff of the first
pitched battle between German and
British tanks in which a sQuadon OF
six German land ships were routed by
the British on April "a near Villers-
Bretonneux Six German tanks ap-
peared in front of the British line and
started to roll up the flanks of the
British infantry positions. A call for
help was sent to the nearest British
tank camp and a squadron Of both
male" and female" tanks shortly
appeared on the scene. A rough and
tumble combat ensued.
Broke Up Enemy Attack.
The British female tanks, which ap-
peared first, were outfought, but the
arrival of the heavier male tanks COM
pletely changed the situation and the
Germans fled after receiving a bad
beating. Meanwhile the British had
brought up seven of the new fast
cruiser type called "whippet tanks"
positions on a ridge. rolling up the
German line from the north.
1t developed that this ridge was
held by a line of machine gun posts
while beyond the crest large German
force was massing in the open for an
attack. The whippets ran from shell
hole to shell hole inflicting terrible
casualties, and completely disorgan-
lied the enelny's preparations for at
tack.
These seven tanks, each with q
full crew of twenty men, inflicted
more than four hundred casualties on
the enemy in this engagement, while
the casualties on board the tanks were
only five men.
British Hold Lead.
An officer of the general staff COM
menting on this engagement to the
Associated Press said:
THE British tank has justified
itself. The Germans have adopted
them but there is yet no evidence
that they have any large number
available. With the start which we
have in tank construction we should
be able to preserve our superiority
without difficulty"

represents the views of that body.
The Americans must buy their ex-
perience, like every one else" con-
tinued the officer, but they are good
business men and buy 1t at the cheap
est market and sell it at the highest
price to Germany. The Americans
will make good. They will never go
until they do.
During the past week in France,
a series of minor operations have been
in our favor. Wherever the Germans
broke in we drove them out. This is
satisfactory because the Germans are
extraordinarily good at infiltrating,
holding and improving positions. due
to the good training of their regimen
tai officers. subordinatea and staff.
1.-The air fighting also has resulted
satisfactorily to us. From May 8 to
is seventy-one German airplanes
were brought down, while only nine
teen of ours were missing. Our air
situation is infinitely better than last
year, and was considerable factor in
hating the first phase of the German
offensive.
THE Germans are now oiling up
for a real effort. The longer they
wait the more troops they can put in
II they wait a little longer they can
renew the offensive on as big a scale
as they began ia fifty mile front
However, the longer the Germans
wait the more time it gives US to pre-
pare.
Regardless of the changes in ter
ritorial position, the situation will be
very anxious all this summer"
