Germans Attack Again. Referring again to my diary : Cliaumont, Wednesday, July 17, 1913. Another German attack broke Monday. Our and the part of the Twenty-eightThird, became engaged. The latter counterattai ked and captured &0 prisoners. Advised Foci, that e Forty-second- the , and Twenty-nint- h are available at Thirty-secon- divisions once. Five other divisions have been placed at his disposal. Situation more yesterday favorable for allies. General Pullard assigned to Third corps and General Wright to Fifth. The Intelligence allied armies had services of all the been exerting every endeavor to discover the enemy's plans, with the result that for some days It appeared almost certain that his nert nove would be directed toward the outhensf, on the ri:; t Rhelms.

CHAPTER L Tlie Germans had a preponderance of 32:l,(!tl rides March 21, 1!H3, and although this number Imd decreased they still had a superiority of about 200.000 May 27. July 15 this was allies then had tlie the and changed superiority by tlie same number, in other words, tlie Germans were rela tively worse off by fGJOO rides In July than in March. 1'h is was accounted for almost en tircly by the great increase in the numbers of Americans. The French and liritisli had not been aide to add to their strength but, n:r t'ie contrary than they wore living reduced tlie Germans. The German offensive south of Rheims. July having been checked, tlie moment was favorable for an allied counteroffensive. The se lection by the Germans of tlie (Turn pagne sector nnd tlie eastern and southern faces of the Marne pocket on which to make tiicir offensive was fortunate for tlie nllies, as it favored the counterattack already planned. We shall now see the reason for tlie concentration of several American divisions southwest of Soisons Some of them were available for use in the main counterstroke, to he delivered by the French Tenth army under Mangin. The American Firut and Second divi sions were hastily assembled to form tlie American Third corps under Gen eral Rullnnl. Rut his corps staff had not yet been fully organized and tl.ee divisions, by his direction, under dis cretionary authority given by me, lie came a part of the French Twentieth corps, commanded hv General Berdou lat.

Tills corps then was composed of fu-d- 15-1- tiiese two divisions and tlie French First Moroccan division, which had a to tine reputation, and was the most important position in tlie attack on tlie left center of tlie Tenth army. Tlie three divisions met tinned had the honor of living tlie spearhead of tlie thrust against tlie vulnerable flank of tlie salient. Tlie line of ad vance ran eastwaid over tlie com mniiding plateau just south of Fois sons, and across the main road lead ing from that place to Chateau Thierry.
