THE NOYON OFFENSIVE. 'TRIKlNTi mi a front of li.j miles, lHwceti Montdidicr 1 und tliei Oisc, Ilie (ici'inans have renewed their thrust; toward Paris, in llieir fourth offensive effect since .March 121, wiien they smashed the liritish lines at St. (juin till. Kneli offensives hits had less success than the previous one, and while it is too early to make; predictions, the init ial result of the present drive has been the costliest to the (lermans and the most meaner in success of them till. The new (ierninn attack is directed immediately against ('mimieiVno as part of the campaign against Paris, The section at tacked is it vital oiks because, of Hit; various detached heights which lie across the head of the vallev of the Oise and its preat railway and road to Paris. Any im portant L'iuu in tins direction would hrini; the enemv out in the level-country towards St. Just find ( Mcarinont, and enable him to avoid a frontal attack on the forests of C'om- icitnie find Villers-Oottcrcts, which fire of great value to the allies, for defensive purposes. Such a gain, would prob- ihlv compel a readjustment ol. the allied trout between the Oisc and the Marne. .Another object of the new move Is assumed to lie' an attempt to outflank the French line into the Koissons sec tor, and straighten the Germans lino which now occupies a dangerous salient along the iMariie. the Crown 'Princes Manic drive was only partially successful. It contemplated two parallel advances, one on the west on the road from Soissons to Chateau-Thierry, the other down the K'heinis-Doriiions road. At the same time fi third army was to have followed the river Oisc to tin river Otircq, and from tlmOurcq, from which a canal leads to Paris, to the Marne where it would have united with the army Iroin Kheiins and crossed the Marne. The two wings were held nj and only the center reached the Marne and the allied counter attacks, participated in by the United States marines, have prevented the enemv from stablizing his gains. Ilie Ju-ench lines were lightly held along the Crown Prince's center, which accounts for his rapid progress with overwhelming forces. Peservcs, however, were quickly thrown in, which held-up his wings. The main al lied reserves were massed in the Amiens, Paris and Ypres sectors, and it was probably the enemy's expectation that the Marne advance would force the advancement -of these reserves, leaving the way clear for a resumption of the smash at Amiens but the hope did not materialize. Only the local reserves were called out. AT THE RIALT0 TO NIGHT AND TOMORROW. 1 r W's7 till "iWW? I $U4 -1 HUNS, NOT SLAVS PEGGY HYLA Nn , DIRECTION W1X-X.I A.IVI T?

Uelicf that the tieoplo of ilussla want, ahovo all things, peaco at any price, Is a mistake, asserts Vladimir Dourt seff, a noted ltusslan former revolu tionary and newspaper man who has arrived here from Finland. "Tho Bolshovikl threaten tho total destruction of Russia," said Hourt sofl to a writer in tho Dagens Nyho tor. "Thoy attained power by tho holp of tho Germans and by tho same means aro maintained In power. Hol shoviklsm is a danger not only for Russia but for tho wholo world and It !s necessary that tba supporters of Its doctrines should bo thoroughly defeated. Russia cannot be saved so long 08 the Dolshevlkl are in control am convinced they can be conquered ind I hope It will not bo long before thoy are suppressed. 'What Russia needs is .1 govern ment composed ot democrats and cadets (constitutional democrats) with a man like Korniloff or llilyu- koff at its head. The Idea that the land above all things wants peace at any price Is a mistake. This would be made plain under another govern ment which, unlike tho present, was not dependent on German support." llonrtscff at tho beginning of the war was living in Paris as a refugee.
