War Near New Phase In Allied Drive As Hindenburg Line Fears Rise
London Aug 31 Allied forces push toward the Hindenburg line with Riencourt and Bullecourt cited as new switch-line anchor points. The advance, if continued, may force a larger retreat southeast from Lille to the Meuse. War dispatches describe a critical moment as German lines and possible future pivots are analyzed in light of ongoing offensives and air actions by American and British units. Lieutenant Edmund G. Chamberlain of San Antonio Texas, a Marine aviator, is reported for possible Victoria Cross and Congressional Medal of Honor recognition after a July 28 battlefield air duel and a daring recovery of a wounded French officer. Five killed in a Bloomingburgh NY omnibus crash closes the day.
