Questions concerning the concentration ami supply of tlie elements of the First army In the battle areas were being worked out by of that army, vv ho were given every possible assistance Fy the stafl at O. II. Q The general dan of action of tin allied armies, as agreed upon at ttie cnnferencf of commanders in chief July 24, was, to state It simply and briefly, that the offensive should con tinue, each army driving forward as Tlie allied and rapidly as possible. American operations during the summer had resulted in the reduction of the Chateau Thierry, Andens and St. Mihlel salients and the great offensive was now under way. Immediately west of the Meuse river the battle line had remained practically unchanged since 1917. It was on this front ttie American army was to play its great part. Tlie disposition of the Belgian, British, French and American armies on (lie wide front between the North sea and Verdun was such that they would naturally converge ns (hey advanced. So long as the enemy could hold his ground on the east of this battle line frontal attacks farther west might drive hint hack on his successive psl- In tin-staf- serious obstacles. These natural defenses were strengthened by .very artlthiiil means imaginable. A dense network of wire entanglements covered every position. It was small wonder tlie enemy hud rested on tins front without being four vr-ir- molested. Hindenbuig Position Is Objective. In invord.mee with the principal winch i.maincd iflisshMi, the same throujiout tl is great offensive, the main utack of the First nrmy was to lie 1,1 u in lied west of ttie Meuse river, its rLt.t to he eov. red liy Hie river and the operations of the French by Scv enteen Ii corps on the east of the river, that corps being a part of our army. Our left was to In supported by a simultaneous attack by the French Fourth army. Our attack to include the Argonne forest was to he driven with all possible strength In the gen end direction of Me.ieres. I lie tiist operation of our army was to have for its objective the Hiinlen-hurposition on tie front Brieiilles-su- r m. At the same time, to divert the enemy's attention elsewhere, local raids and demonstrations were made on the Meuse Moselle front. The French Fourth army (Gournud), to our left on the west of the Argonne forest, began its uttack half an hour later. The battle opened favorably. Our attio k ut that particular place and nt that time evidently came as a surprise to the enemy, and our troops were enabled quickly to overrun hit forward positions. The vast network of undestroyed barbed wire, the deep ravines, dense woods ami heavy fog made It difficult to coordinate the movements of the assaulting Infantry, especially of some divisions in battle for the first time, yet the advance throughout was extremely vigorous Third Corps Reaches Second Line. The Third corps (Bullard), nearest tin Mouse, curried the enemy's second position before dark. The Thirty-thirdivision (Bell), wheeling to the right ns It advanced, occupied ttie west hank of ttie Meuse to protect the flank of the army. The Bols de Forges, with Its difficult terrain and strong machine gun defenses, was carried in splendid fashion. Ttie right of tlie Eightieth division (( 'ronk it e) had by noon cleared the Bois J lire in tlie face of heavy machine gun fire and established its line north of Dannevoux. On its loft, nfter an all day tight, the division forced Its wav through the strong positions on hill 2d2 and reached the northern slopes of that hill. The Fourth d'vision (Illnes), on the left of the Eightieth, took Septurgos and tirmiy established Itself In the woods to Hie north. It was abreast of Nantillols and Its left was more than a mile beyond Montfaucon, hut through some misinterpretation of the orders by tlie Third corps the opportunity to capture Montfaucon that day was counter attacks lost. Three against the division during the afternoon were broken up. Fifth Corps Falls Short. In the center the Fifth corps (Cameron). with the exception of the Ninety-first division (Johnston) on Its left, fell short of Its objectives. The Seventy ninth division (Kuhn), on the right of ttie corps, took Malnn-courhut In the open ground beyond encountered considerable opposition, and the advanced elements were not in position before Montfaucon until late afternoon. The Httiu-- of the division launched against this strong point early In the evening was met by Hie fire of artillery and machine guns from the southern slopes of the hill, which h (!
