British and French forces push counter offensives near Montdidier Lassigny and along the Somme Ancre lines while General Foch is appointed to supreme command. Local reports note German attempts weakening, with Allied lines holding and resisting heavy assaults near Albert and Amiens.

Senator Overman of North Carolina charged in the senate that German spies within the United States, not the War Department, are chiefly responsible for the failure of the government aeroplane program. He urged a drastic action against spies in plants making war matériel and predicted serious consequences if they are not stopped, asserting spies are at the Curtis aeroplane factory where most government airframes are built.
