the Franco-American lines to the
heights dominating the Marne val
ley at various points.
Desperate fighting is reported in
several sectors of the new battle
front, particularly south of the
Marne, where ground was given
only foot by foot, when the allied
line was obliged to bend back
The statement says:
To-day the Germans, who have
not been able to resume their gen.
eral attack, broken up by US yes
terday, made violent efforts to in
crease their local successes. Both
in the morning and afternoon the
battle was particularly desperate
south of the -Marne. Enemy
forces attempted to ascend the
river. Our artillery retarded the
advance Of the enemy, defending
the ground foot by foot, and they
have maintained their positions
on the line of Oeuilly-Leuvrigny.
"on QUIZ part we counter attacked
the enemy ON ths front OF st. Agnar-

captured these two places and carried
