The belief was expressed Hidel^ in Official circles that the tables had been definitely turned, that yesterday's sucOesses between Chateau Thierry and Soissons, the first allied offensive of any consequence of the year, mark the end of the allied defensive policy, and that the point has been reached in the accumulation of man-power and munitions in France where Gen. Foch is enabled to assume his favorite role as an offensive leader.

Proud.

WASHINGTON, July 19.—The heart tf the American nation was in France last night. It marched ana twugnt proudly with the boys who went aver the top yesterday morning and still ^vere gallantly smashing their way ahead beside their French comrades late in the day. It was a tale of splendid victory and daring that news reports and even the terse official stateJiients told. Hour by hour, the extent tf the victory grew. What the full •ffect of the blow will be, cannot be estimated until detnils of the action fclon& the whole 25-mile front vrom Chateau Thierry to Soissona from %^hlch the surprise attack was launched are available.

It was clear beyond mistake, howtwer, that in the rush of the first day this answer of General Foch to Gertnts attacks east and west of Rheims, the enemy had been placed in a posltlrm from which he may have great fcifflculty in extricating himself. Not ,wnly may the German effort west of JRhelma and south of the Marne be iwfcolly nullified, but all they have accomplished since the battle of the

It waa the instant news that held them, from General March to the Junior staff officers, and the war department waa a placo of, smiles and hand grips as the boys oversea wrote new and, glorious pa»es, in American history.

Secretary Baker had difficulty in holding himself to cool, unhurried expression as he dictated to the newspaper men late in the day a statement summarizing General Persning's brief reports.

Supplemented with the new dispatches the official account revealed, however, the full thrilling Story of the dash against the enemy aenverect with such gallantry and "was such a complete surprise that it swept over the first German lines apparently without wavering and rushed on to objectives deep in the territory the Germans have held for months.

Officials Are Eager.

During the day. Secretary Baker, General March and war department officials spent much time ©vet the maps.

They read every detail of the accounts brought in over press wires and time after time all other business halted while the swiftly changing battle front was traced out. Until late in the night officials were eagerly receive ing every report that came in.

The most promising consideration of the counter attack, officers believe, aside from renewed proof of the flghtinp qualities of the new American armies, is the fact that General Foch has now sufficient force to unloose a major counter stroke, for the blow today is nothing less than that, however limited its fixed objectives for today mav have bean. The supreme commander now has shown clearly that a definite turning point has been reached where his resources in men! and munitions are great enough for him to assume at least an aggressive! defense.

Terre Haute Retail and Wholesale Credit Men's Associarion

Times Change

"S not ke it tised to be.

THE DEAD BEAT HAS BEEN NAILED.

A person of "careless credit" can no longer "beat" every merchant in this city.

In unity there is strength—and practically every retail merchant in the city of Terre Haute belongs to the newlyestablished clearing house that "clears credits."

If you do not pay your bill with one merchant—every other merchant knows it. X*.

YOU MUST PAY AS YOU GO or quit going. The day of systematically beating the man who trusts you is gone.

If you are HONORABLE and pay your bills—your credit grows. If you are DISHONORABLE and don't pay your bills—your credit is nipped in the bud.

TIMES CHANGE—and invariable for for the better. PAY UP! Credit is too valuable an asset to lose.
