ROME, Sept. 1.-TWO Allied col
umns coming up from Southern
France struck today to within 25
miles Of the sentinel city Of Bel
fort, whose fortifications bar the
way through q mountain gap into
the plains before Germanys FROM
tier on the Rhine, 80 miles east Of
the fortress.
The Germans, who fought hard
In Besancon, broke and ran under
American blows, and Allied head
quarters said doughboys now had
covered at least half Of the II
miles from Besancon to Belfort.
It WAS likely that patrols, moy-
ing swiftly after resistance waa
crushed In Besancon's streets, had
advanced even nearer to the city.
"a Swiss frontier dispatch Friday
said that the Americans were
within 10 miles Of Belfort and that
the battle for the city had begun.)
French troops lighting up through
the Jura Mountains seized the towns
Of Pierre-F'ontaine and Maiche, the
latter rs miles south Of Belfort.

These twin drives seemed to be
outracing German forces trying to
hold open the roads branching out
from Dijon, A miles west Of
Besancon.
The Germans were offering stif
resistance to the French moving
up along a 40-mile front to within
% miles of Dijon at one point. But
if they let the Americans reach
Belfort before them they may never
get back to the fatherland, because
they must take a longer northerly
route menaced all the way by the
3rd Army striking toward the Rhine
and by ambush parties of French
patriots.
The Germans suffered q great
industrial blow in this fighting, for
the French overran rich steel and
coal region lying about As miles
south Of Dijon. The French cap
tured the towns of LIE Creusot,
chagny and Observation-Disclosures
in the heart of this area. The
Schneider Metallurgical Works,
with capacity of 10000 tons of
steel annually, is in the area.
In their advance the French swept

after two days of severe fighting,
and other forces pushed up to Au-

Southwest of Besancon the Ger

might try to cut in behind Dion.

and the German DNB agency said
that fighting Gin front of the Bel
