Tho statement adds:
"Our troops and leaders anticipate a
favorable conclusion of the battle."
In many places colored and ' white
French troops penetrated the German
defensive zone in which every step for-
ward, the German report Rays, had to be
wrested at the cost of sanguinary losses.
In bitter hand to hand fighting and by
counter attacks the French were driven
heck almost everywhere.
FRENCH IEOPLE PLEASED
Paris, Aug. 21. Yesterday's victory
of the Fronch on tho Verdun front was
welcomed by the French people not only
because after it the Oormans no longer
hold one of their dearly bought conquests
won since tho first onrush on the Verdun
fortress In February, 11)170, but as proof
that tho unity of action among tho en
tente allies is at work.
Tho British, Italian and French fronts
are all active at the same time, making
It posslblo that weakness may develop
somcwhero along the Gefnmn and Aus
trian lines confronting them. Tho Figaro,
however, warnB its readers against ex
pecting too much.
"Exnorlcnce has shown," tho Figaro
says, "that It Is vain to hope, to pierce
a front which incessantly closes after
tho breach has been mode. At Vordun,
as In Flanders, tho object Is to strlko
the enemy tho mots powerful blow possi
ble and then to await an opportunity to
strlko again. It is not the territory ro
v.on that counts but tho losses Inflicted."

Rush Appropriation for Ship
and Engine Building Asked
(By Tht Attooiattd Prttt)
Washington, Aug. 21. Congress will
be asked for special rush appropriations
for the Immediate expansion of ship and
engine building plants to carry out the
big destroyer program decided upon by
the navy department.
Secretary Daniels Indicated today that
the shipbuilders have said the necessary
expansion could be carried out only if
tho government paid the bill. The navy
will ask Immediately to start tho woTk
and will not await the regular naval ap
propriation bills later In the year.
Ship and engine builders now have all
the work existing plants can do and also
are obligated to the limit of their finan
cial arrangements. They propose that the
government expand the yards and engine
plants, that the private builders do the
work, using their trained forces, sup
plemented by all the additional men that
can be produced and that at the con
clusion of the war or the contracts, as
the government may decide, the supple
mental plants either be sold to the ship
building companies or operated on gov
ernment work. Details of the scheme are
now being worked out at tho navy de
partment. The destroyer program includes as
many new ships of that type as it is
possible to build.
