LONDON, Sept. 3-Having smashed
their way across the vital Drocourt-
Queant switch line on a front of
from four TO six miles, British troops
are following up their advantage at
positions at both ends Of the break.
This line, which was designed to be
supplementary defense to the Hin
denburg line is Of utmost importance
to the enemy. If the Allies can sweep
the Germans back from 1t entirely, It
Is believed Hindenburg's positions all
along the west front win be imperiled.
Field Marshal Haig announced Cana
dian and British troops have occupied
Dury, Villers-Les-G -Gagnicourt. Gagni-
court and GagnicOurt,
positions on both sides OF the Arras-
Cambral Road. These positions strike
the Drocourt-Queant line at its most
vital point.
Further south British advances con
tinued also. The enemy resistance has
stiffened considerably, however. Hin

ened by General Plumer's second
army, aided by Americans who are
hot on the heels of General Won
Armin's fourth German army, and
General Won Ouasts' sixth army.
These are gradually yielding the
ground won at tremendous
sacrifice in Hindenburg's April
offensive.
South of the Scarpe, the Brit
ism are driving on, hourly incress-
ing the depth of the perilous pock-
ct, at the bottom of which lies
Queant, one of the main corner
stones of the Hindenburg de-
fenses. Cambria lies only ten
miles east.
With Queant gone, Ludendorff
will have a hard job to prevent
disaster throughout this region.
The fall of Riencourt and the cap
ture of the German positions on
the high ground south of that vii
lage has brought the British up
against Queant, which they COM
pietely dominate at close range.
Both here and northward, as far
as the Scarpe, the British are
fighting over country which was
not reached during the Arras
drive of 1917. They are threat
ening to roll up the Hindenburg
line, which they are menacing at
several places.
The enemy is burning stores. The
Indications are that he hopes TO get
all his stores out or must burn what
he cannot move, in order to prevent
capture by the Allies.
Between Noyon and Scissors the
Germans are fighting most stubbornly,
but slowly and surely the French and
Americans are battering their way for
ward. American troops are threaten |

Aisne. If their progress continues the |

Henry Clews Reviews the Peace Proposals. and the Decla

United States Steel Corporation, whose
common stock is reported to have
been well bought lately, published an
increase in its untitled orders during
the week, and now has a total of g.
$4,000 tons Ola its books. Bullish ex-
Fressions are being heard on the cop
Per stocks. The decision of the United
States Supreme Court favorable to
stock dividends has been followed by
rumorS that Union Pacific may de-
clare a disbursement of that kind.
Good buying of Westinghouse Electric
is reported. A financial news agency
is quoted as saying that international
experts believe that the efficient
banking system and large trade bal
ance Of this country guarantee its in
dustrial future. The control of the
United States over raw materials is
en- important factor in this connection,
especially in regard to steel, copper
and cotton. We believe the reserve
buying power in securities is of large
proportions and definite indications of
a collapse of Germany would probably
make it active in the so-caHed peace
stocks, among which are being includ-
ed the Harvester Fertilizer, Equip
ment, Railroad and Oh issues. Rumors
have been current that a law may be
passed at Washington providing Fed
ers1 Reserve rediscounting of Stock
Exchange railroad collateral. Infla-
ton continues to exert tendencies
making for higher prices in many di-
rections.
