American and British newspaper

"They are working exhausting
hours every day, getting bombed

often in their cars or on the
floor," he said.
"But I think the real heroes of
this struggle to keep the flow ot
news going are one young Amer
ican and four Frenchmen. The
American is Louis Buell, native
of Duluth, Minn., and the others
are his staff in the transmission

Wheeler to Bolt
if Party for War
In the senate, a group of leg
islators angrily assailed what
they termed steps in the direction
of war.
"Every move Is being made to
take ' us down the road to war,"
Senator Wheeler (D-Mont) thun-
aerea.
"We have seen this country led
away from neutrality to non-bel
ligerency," said Senator Holt (D-
WVa), "and if certain Individuals
in the government have their
way we will strike out the 'non
and be belligerent before the snow
flies."
Wheeler also asserted that if
the democratic party -should be
come a ' war party," he would un
hesitatingly 'fbreak with it." He
would not, he said, "support any
candidate fori president who's try
ing to get us into this war."
Senator Clark (D-Mo) called
attention to an article In .the Lon
don Daily Express saying that
Senator Nye (R-ND) and Senator
Johnson (R-Calif) appeared to be
the only remaining bulwarks
against American participation in
the war.
"I think that as time goes along
it will find many another bul
wark." Clark shouted, "despite
the Kndon Daily . Express."
Senator Bone (D-Wash) said
he noted that the newspaper pre
dicted American conscription of
manpower resources, materials
and everything needed for war.
"It's a reryj pleasing- prospect,"
Bone said sarcastically, "to know
that we are about to embrace to
talitarianism in order to fight to
talitarianism." Order Work Started

Pushing forward with all poss
ible speed with the task of build
ing up the nation's defenses, -the

that it ordered work started on

craft last night within an hour af
ter President Roosevelt had signed

At the same 'time, the White
House disclosed that the govern
ment was turning reserve manu
facturing equipment over to pri
vate industry to make possible the
"Immediate" manufacture of six-
able quantities of smokeless pow
der, ammonia: and small a r m a

The immediate drive on Paris

their greatest advance, at Persan-

West Drive Roan
Along Seine Banks
On the east the drive was in the
Chateau Thierry region-, where
American, marines won -glory in
the last war. The west drive
roared along both banks to the
Seine river from. Rouen to Ver
non. There the Germans , were
seeking to reinforce their detach
ments which had plunged across
the river.
The Germans flung more and
more troops, tanks and yet more
tanks against the bitterly fight
ing French.
In the Senile regions the gar
dens of the Chantmy chateau of
American Ambassador. William C.
Bullit became a battleground.
The German gains were being
made at fearful -cost
The French said they learned
from prisoners that counter-attacks
by French tanks and planes,
some returning to the - fight five
times during the day, had inflict
ed heavy losses.
In Berlin the Germans figured
they had guaranteed victory In
the battle of France.
They said they had eaptnred
Reims and Rouen (which the'
French did not admit), crossed
the Seine and the Marne on the
two flanks of the French capital
and blasted away the resistance
of a French force near St. Val
ery,, on the English channel, tak
ing 20,000 prisoners and six
generals.
One Store Spear
May Be Started
In the center, said the Ger
mans, tbey had made the Olse
river valley their , road to Paris
and were 12 miles from their
goal. This is closer than the
French concede.
The possibility Germany might
be pointing up another spear to
thrust Into France arose with the
report that German artillery was
active on the . upper Rhine front,
a quiet area op to now,
A German spokesman cautious
ly commented that a new front
might be in the process of "being
brought into motion."
Turkey, non-belligerent ally of
Britain and France, sat tight.
Her cabinet decided that for the
present Turkey would stay out
