500,000,000. Mr. McAdoo estimates
that this will be sufficient to fill

air of expectancy was apparent to
nignt among American and other
military officials here who are fol
lowing most closely the develop
ments or tne Dattle in France. Thev
appeared to feel that a turning poinT
in the terrific struggle was cIo.e a'
hand. Press reiorts f-rom the Bn-
ih front hinted at the same feeling
there. j
For the people of the United S ate-
the announcement by the British au
thoritles that American troons ar
fighting side by side with French
and British defenders brings the bat

officials had no word from General

It was regarded as "entirely possi

divisions already seasoned by front
line experience In their own sector,
had come tip with French reinforce
ments. They would be! certain to
operate wiUi...lhA!KniU as ; their
equipment is largely French and
they must be supplied with ammuni
tion and replacements from tna
French communication lines.
Should this prove to be the ease,
it is possible, officers here believe,
that American troops will be with
French units in an effort to score
heavily against the Germans when
the moment for attack arrives.
British Front Stiffens.
Today's official British reports',
while admitting further German ad
vances in the jcapture of Roye, in
dicated a slowing up of the direct
progress against the British font.
The official statements Indicated
that the Germans saw danger in th
exposure of their left ,lank to the
threat of the French line-on the Riv
er Oise. Evacuation of Noyon gavo
the French a river line to hold
sgalnst the Germans on a front that
paralleled the flow of ammunition
and supply trains to the more ad

the day without avail. Meanwhile,
the evacuation of Roye by the Ur't-
ish served to extend still further th
k German, supply lines against wh'ch
a French asan.t might be launched.
The steadiness of the French line,
it was pointed out. was an indica
tion in itself that the allies were
voluntarily abandoning anme of the
territory occupied by the Germans.
Bix Counter-Blow Expected.
If anything, American officers
were more confident tonight than at
any previous time of the outcome of
the drive. , They have never doubted
that It would be stopped. Now, how
ever, they are thinking of the prob-
able extPot or the counter-mow tney
fecl certain is to fall sooner or later.
There is no lack of possibilities
in the northern sector of the battle
area. The British lines there havo
been much less shaken than those
Mo the south.
When the time arrives
It Is possible that a thrust will come
from that direction also. The pros

They drove off enemy airmen who
made attempts singly or in groups
to prowl over the line. There were
several aerial combat between planes

were unable to get close enough to

PAY-LESS AS WELL AS
PAIN-LESS DENTISTRY
THAT'S PROTECTED
No greater evidence of the solid character and good faith of
the PainlcE3 Parker dental organization can be found than
in the strength of the guarantee given every one of its
patients. The hop-skip-and-a-jump tooth-tinkering carpet
bagger couldn't offer any such assurance to his custom
ers, and be justified in making that kind of sweeping
promise. , f
There are twelve Painless Parker dental offices in the United
States, two in Oregon, one in Washington, eight in Cali
fornia, and one in Brooklyn, N. Y. Any individual who has
had dental work done in any one of these offices is entitled
to follow-up work on the operation, free of charge, in any
4 of the twelve offices he may care to visit. In other words,
if any hidden fault in our dentistry comes to light, every
one cf our offices are eager to remedy the defect without
cost to the patient. On top of that, we urge our patients
, to call ai least once every six months and have' the dental
work given a thorough examination so that the job may be
always kept up in first class shape.
Think what this means to you I Your tooth work furnished
you at the lowest possible figure, estimated on the basis of
A-No. 1 dentistry. Your work done by specialists, all of
whom are, of course, regularly licensed. And, after, that,
your teeth watched regularly, examination and consulta
. tion free, and no charge made for putting old work in good
condition.
What value is there in the guarantee of an individual dentist, '
who promises you, say, a blanket ten-year pledge that his
t,6oth-carpentry will be protected? He may move away, or
quit his trade, or die. And then where are you? They
make, a big hulabaloo about my conducting" a dental or
ganization of nation-wide scope, with scores of dentists
aiding me in the different cities where Thave offices. But
it helps a lot when you move from your town to another
to discover the Painless Parker office in the new place
. right ready to see that your chewers are all in good work
ing condition. Think it over
