FRENCH FLIERS' GREAT WORK HELPS TO SCORE VICTORY Itf FLANDERS By HENRY WOOD WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES IN FLAN DERS, Oct 30. The most perfectly co-ordinated "team work"' in the history of warfare brought France's veterans a victory In their latest hit forward In Flanders. So perfect was the co-operation between aviators and French guns mat mrougnouc the day of this advance no German battery fired more than six shots before it was lo cated by the French eagles of the air, who accurately "ranged" the distance and wire lessed or signaled back and French guns put It out of commission. This was on Sunday. The day dawned bright, crisp and clear .the air'more clear than at any. time in two months. The French had previously concentrated a re markable number of planes ana guns in this particular sector of Flanders. They Cot on the job at once. French airmen took to the air. They cot the jump on the enemy, assuming the Initiative and attaining complete mastery. Not only that, but they kept this mastery throughout the day. French nghtlng planes In the "first aerial defense lines" drove back Roche fighters. Fast auxiliary "line" planes swooped down over German trenches or roads Just back of the enemy lines, spray ing the troops with machine-gun bullets. Special "advance" planes ducked far behind the German lines to drop bombs on mu nition dumps and depots, Meantime observation planes hovering ver the German positions, and protected by the other ''lines" of French planes spied out all the enemy's secrets and communi cated them back td French stations. Thert , were so many ot these observation planes and so '.ert were their occupants that they potted German guns on their first shots. Their range estimates were deadly In ac curacy. French batteries put German guns out of commission so often that at the close pf the day It was estimated the French lire had been twenty-five times greater than that of the aermans. During all this time French planes, heavily armed" and flying very close to the trpund, preceded every French Infantry unit It leaped out ot the trenches. The planes swung up and down the advancing line Just behind the barrage, adding their quota of machine-gun tire to melt away the Roche resistance and signaling back every yard ot trourid over which the advance was made. The perfect success of the creeping barrage was due mainly to their accurate reports ot advances. Home Concern Gets Road Contract HARRISDUna. Oct, JO.
