AMSTERDAM, July 15—The German press continues the campaign of belittling the American military effort on the western front.

Thierry on the west to Massignes, in the Champagne, on the east. The Germans followed thefr most recent tactics of beginning an offensive. There was a brief artillery preparation of greatest violence and then came th» "advance of assault Mrcops.

New Feature In Attack, There seems, however, to have been a new feature in this attack. Great naval guns have been brought up behind the enemy lines and towns and cities far behind the actual tattle area were taken under bombardment. The violence of this cannonade is evidenced by the. fact that the city of Meaux, 25 files west of cnateau Thierry, yas under fire of great projectiles duning the night.

The apparent purpose of -the Germans attacking uiaDg the line from Chateau Thierry east along Ihe Marne. over th rolling hills to Rheims and thence eastward, to Massignes, was similar to that in the great attack along the Aisne late in May. They evidentlp hoped to find the allies less well epared in this sector than elsewhere. In spite of the repulse of the Germans before Rheims earlp in June, it may be that the allied line eastward from Chateau Thierry was more thinly held than that from Chateau Thierry north to the Aisne and thence through the Picardy sector to Yprea.

Hope to Gain Verdun.

solved on paper, but not in reality.! Therefore the Americans can bring about no change in favor of our opponent^ in the '.mmediate future.

German assaulting troops thus might hope io encounter less violent resistance in the sectors east of Chateau Thierry and the Germans possibly hoped for gains which even would compel an allied retirement „from the •Verdun and St. Mihiel sectors'.

The north bank of the Marne is held by the Germans for a distance of some 20 miles east from Chateau Thierry. A successful attack in the Rheims area might force the allies back on the positions still farther east and give the Germans command of the communication system of the French and American troops at Verdun and St. Mihiel. by which they are supplied with foocj and munitions. In this district is the city of Chalons, which is reputed to be an important supply center. It is approximately 18 miles back of the line where mighty armies are locked in a death struggle today.

point, whiclj. lies on the direct road to Paris. Rheims la Objective.

It is regarded as ^gpossible that the purpose of the attack is to widen still further the Aisne salient by the reduction of Rheims. and the forcing back of the whole southern extremity of the 1918 battle area, A previous attack on Rheims was halted in its tracks by French and Italian troops, and that place is now the center of a greatly increased assault. In some quarters this was taken to mean that the reduction of the Rheims salient is regarded as vital to the success of the German enterprise as a whole.

Extensive employment of na-ca.1 guns for long-range bombardment of the allied rear position suggests that It was the time required to bring up and emplace these weapons that held up the German drive.
