reported that of the 200 of the com
mand who reached the front, only 50
remained. Twenty were killed, eight
were taken prisoner and all the rest
were wounded.
Soldiers Desert Wonts. .
"Several times." said one wounded
girl, "we attacked the Germans. Espe
cially memorable was our attack at
Novospassky wood. near Smorgon,
where the enemy, hearing the voice:
of girls, lost their nerve. The result
was that many of them were killed,
wounded or taken prisoner. Among the
prisoners were a few women, from
whom we learned for the first time that
German women also were fighting.
"We did not feel the slightest fear
of our personal safety. Our passion
was to serve the fatherland.- We ad
vanced gaily against the foe with
laughter and song, our only unpleasant
sentiments being when we first came
to the corpses. Once, when replying
to the enemy's severe rifle and machine
gun fire, we discovered to our amaze
ment that all our men comrades in the
neighboring trenches had treacherous
ly fled, leaving us a handful of wom
en to face the enemy alone."

ingly instructed to give the alarm
throughout the city. The last notifica
tion to the people of the capital to take
refuge fur a possible air raid was given
on the night of March 16-17.

was given, the sky over the city was
alive with defense airplanes, twinkling
like stars from which they hardly
could be distinguished. Firemen dashed
through the streets sounding alarms on
powerful sirens and one by one the
street lamps flickered out.
Residents of the city, awakened from
their sleep, instead of taking refuge
in cellars, mounted to the roora or into
the streets to watch the droning air
planes. At 1:10 o'clock the firemen
gave the signal "that all danger was
over and the Parlsiennes turned to their
beds, having seen nothing of the en
emy. BERLTN, July 28. German airplanes
last night dropped bombs on the rail
way stations and military establish
ments In Paris. The official statement

the 4300 mechanics employed on all the

"The statement." sa Id Mr. Soott tonight.
"Is absurd on its face.' The officials

been dealing th last 18 months know
and would gladly testify that my atti
