FRENCH PEESENT
SOLID FRONT TO
HUN ONSLAUGHTS
(By Associated Press.)
The steadineis of the allied flanks
under the heavy German pressure is
one of the outstanding indications in
the fans official report.
The Germans, for instance, made
attempt after attempt to debouch
from Soissons after gaining: the town,
but the determined French in the
outskirts prevented the enemy from
achieving this object.
To the southeast the French re
serves are coming into play and here
the allies are resisting the enemy in
engagement! .of extreme violence
along the road from Soissons to Sar-tennes-et-Taux,
seven and one-half
miles southeast of Soissons.
Fere-en-Tardenois, eight and one
half miles southwest of Hartennes-et-Taux,
apparently marks the limit of
the German advance toward the
southwest, with Vezilly, ten and one
half miles eastward, representing the
extreme southeasterly progress of the
enemy.

U. S. AVIATORS IN
HOT AIR BATTLES
RAGING AT TOUL
t
With the American Army in
France, May 30. From daybreak un
til this hour there has been con
tinuous series of aerial battles on the
front northwest of Toul. One plane
is reported to have fallen in No Man s
land.
There are unconfirmed reports that
some German planes have been shot
down, but at the moment of filing this
dispatch nearly all the American
aviators are either answering alarms
or fighting and accurate details are
unavailable.
The German artillery threw hun
dreds of shells of all sizes and kept
up a destructive and harrassing fire.
All night tha American guns have
been just as busy and are giving the
enemy more than he sends.
It Is not improbable the Germans
have some plans in which they may
employ their infantry.
The sun had hardly reached the
horizon, on this cloudless, windless
day, when large numbers of enemy
planes made their appearance. ' The
American aviators took the air one
after another as the Germans came
into sight.
Within 15 minutes four battles were
fought over No Man's Land.
AMERICAN FLIER
RESCUES BRITISH
FROM HUN PLANES
With the American Army in
France, May 30. Lieutenant Douglas
Campbell of California rescued a
crippled bombing machine from two
German airplanes which attacked it
near the loul sector today.
Two patrols ,f American pursuit
airplanes had gone out to protect a
large squadron of British bombing
machines returning from a raid into
Germany.
Just before the airmen crossed the
allied line one of the British machines
became separated from the party and
was attacked by two uerman alba'
tross machines. The British observer
had been wounded by the machine
gun fire of the Germans, who were
about to finish the Britishers when
Lieutenant Campbell dashed in. He
emptied his machine gun at the Ger
mans and the enemy replied, but
Campbell's fire became so hot for the
Germans that they withdrew.
Lieutenant Campbell then escorted
the British machine safely behind
the American line.
SHANNON TELLS

Brother of Omaha Attorney
, Describes How United
States Destroyers Sent
Hun Subs to Bottom.
John J. Shannon, Omaha attorney,
has received a letter from his brother.
Corporal S. A. Shannon, of the 264th
aero squadron, in which the latter
graphically describes an attack on a
transport convoy by Huh subma
rines and the-destruction of two of
the rattlesnakes of the seas.
"It took us a week to make the
trip," he writes, "owing to the zig-zag
course our ship was comeplled to
take to make it safer for us when we
got into the war cone, and to get by
the submarines.
"When we reached the war ione
we were met by a fleet of United
States destroyers, which convoyed ui
to our destination, it you never saw
speed you ought to have seen them
travel: Our ahip was making at least
28 miles an hour, and they fairly flew
around us.
After Big Transport.
"In the short time thejj'were with
us they got two submarines, and I '
saw them when they got both. It
was very exciting. If the submarines
had got us they would sure have got-"
ten some prize, for our transport was
one of the biggest and fastest ships
carrying troops and supplies from the
states. ,
"The camp In whfch w are located
is a training station for British avia
tors and mechanics. Thev. build aero
planes from beginning to end here and
