Despite the scant communication be

BIG COUNTER-DRIVE
By the Associated Press
Willi the Amerlenn Army on
the
Alsne-Marn Trent, July 20.
It would be no surprise If tho battle
between th& Alsne and the Marne enns
soon.
or if the Crown Prince should
force operations In a new phase by
massing troops for a tremendous
counter-attack on a new part of the bat
tie front, perhaps the flank south nt
Solssons, where the Germans already
have offered such determined resistance
Although outwitted by tho strategy
of General Foch nnd outfought by the
Franco-American commanders, there Is
no disposition to underestimate the
daneer of the staggering German armies
Ftriklng another terrible blow on cither
flank.
The losses of the Germans have heen
enormous. They are ett'mated to range
between 160,000 nnd 225 000. Rut It is
obvious to all excent enthusiastic
optimists that the hard-fighting German
nrmles nre not too crippled to attempt
retaliation once they are In positions
chosen bv the C'nwn Trlnce or tho
Crown Prince's staff.
What lines the Germans will select for
a new stand Is merely conlecture, hut It
Is believed tne logical place will be
beyond the plateau south of Solstons,
running toward the Ardre river and tc
the Junction of the present line from
Ithelms. If the Ardre Is not chosen, the
Crown Prince has the choice of the val-
ley of Vesle. or even the old line alone
me Aisne.
It Is believed more prohnble that the
Crown Prince will choose the Vesle
' region, where the forests and hills west
"f Rhelms toward Roissons would make
him relatively safe for the moment. That
t he Intends abandoning the territory at
1 the bottom of the pocket that rested on
t the Marne Is evident. It Is equally
' evident that he has been forced to such
a course by the reduction of his number
u' lines oi supply,
It Is estimated that tho Germans hart
mobilized here between 600.000 and
600,000 men. To maintain n supply fo
these men, even with all transport
resources, was no simple tnsk. and the
working out of General Foch's plans
have made the positions untenable.
There has been a fierce battle tn
progress for the highways and railroad
with the hope on the part of the Allies,
perhaps, to close the mouth of the sack
and smother the German" It is believed,
however, that the Germans will be able
to get out of their present position with
the greater part of their army.

There were some officials today who

capture of thousands of prisoners and
vast stores of supplies and guns.
Other officials pointed out that fresh

AIRMEN DELUGE FOE'S
LINES WITH BOMBS
fly the Associated Press
Washington, July 20. An account of
the actiUlles of the French air service,
obtained from authentic sources today,
shows the suffering being inflicted on
tho German army crowded into the
Alsne-Marne salient. Tons of bombs
are being rained from the air night and
day.
During the period of the first two
weeks of June, French airmen alone
dropped COO tons of high explosives on
the Germans In tho trenches, on rest
billets, railway stations nnd on muni
tions works far back of the flshtlng
tines. A total of 27,673 flights was
ma tie for military purposes during that
time and more than 2000 combats oc
curred in the air. In Ihls fighting 199
German planes were destroyed or forced
to land In French territory, and 161
othr.- were damaged nnd probably dc-
Biroyeu, mamng a total 01 36U-enemy
machines brought down against a loss
venty-two machines by the French
Twelve of the French planes brought
down wero only damaged.
In direct aid of the army the French
pilots and observers made 1159 photo
graphic scouting trips and took 19,478
snapshots of the enemy forces and posi
tions They- also took 303 long-range
flights, covering enemy territory for
dreds of miles.
Coupled with this French effort today
in the Aisne salient Is the work of con
centrated British and American squad
rons and the airmen are at work night
and day. Not a spot within the enemy
lines Is neglected and his retreat is car
ried on under the same deluge of bombs
nnd machine gunfire from the air that
played an Important part In forcing a
way for the advancing Franco-American
armies which have crossed the Marne.
