River, the enemy made vigorous as- sault upon the positions won by Gen. | Gouraud's men Tuesday, but without | other resistance, than to increase largely the German casualties. Notwithstanding the stubborn-opno-- sition the enemy is offering on the Suinne and north of the Arnes, the impression still is that he is merely seeking to gain time to reduce the difficulties of retreat, the extent of which, in view of the developments on the extreme left wing of the fighting front, it is impossible to forecast. The vigor and perseverance of the allied pressure appears to have de- raged all the German plans. No- of Vaux-les- where have the Germans, with all their genius in organization, been able _to prepare a stable position upon 'which their defeated troops could re- tire in security, which suggests that they have again erred in their judg- ment of the strength and endurance of the Entente altied fighting forces. They are being defeated not only at points chosen for attack by Marshal Foch and his generals, but on ground selected by themselves for counter- attacks. Their reaction all along the Champagne ffont thus far has been productive of only one result relative- ly-faverable to them, inthe region of the Grand Pre gap, which they have been able to keep cpen up to the pres- ent, althouch the gap is under the heavy fire of the French guns. The latest American advance has now particularly neutralized that re- sult. The Americans fighting west of the Argonne Forest on Wednes- day were west of Cornay on the Aire River, having effected a junction with the French troops.

Are Very Destructive. The light, high-speed tanks cia as "whippets" are a development of this year. They are killing machines, pure and simple, for they can bear down upon fortified points and bat- teries at such a speed that there is tittle chance of getting the guns or men away in time. Their r@serve of , fuel enables them to remain in action for a full day' without re-filling. Moreover, the advance of the whippets is quickly followed by the so-called "supply tanks," which can cross any ground, bringing up re- serve supplies of gasoline and am- "nunition. The armored motor cars are neces- surily limited in their radius of ac- tion, owing to the fact that they must stick to the roads, but their great speed makes them very useful in pursuit, and they have a faculty of , getting well back behind the enemy "ront and doing endless damage by | ¢aking command of a_ vital road junction and preventing the escape Pos- ar ® sibilities of infinite adventure open to the commandira of such de- i & tached units Dreams Come True.

In an isolated position the machine temporarily became disabled. The sergeant led the crew of six men to a strong point some distance away and resisted for nearly an hour strong German units that tried to reach them. Meanwhile the abandoned tank was occupied by the Germans. The sergeant led his men back and drove the enemy out, after which he recained possession of the tank until relieved At another point u tank was put out of action and the officer ordered main i The ly eatphals: approached , able number, shouting for it to sur- nder. - Meanwhile the officer succeeded i fixing the trifling mechanical diff. culty and swung his tank around in the midst of the astonished enemy. e then ordered the crew to give the Germans a broadside. The tank sud- denly opened fire on the Germans and drove them back in great disorder. A staff officer saw the British at- , tack at one point being held up by heavy enemy machine gun fire from a number of machine gun posts. He obtained the services of a few tanks, entered one and directed the attack on the hostile positions, Although wounded by machine gun bullets he * continued om direct the attack until the enemy machine guns had been wiped out, thus enabling the British to gain the ground ahead of them with trifling loss. fis a ose Answered.
