QUIET INTERLUDE
(Received July 3, 9 p.m.) LONDON, July 3. For a few minutes last evening, tlie front in the TilljOaen area was strangely quiet as two white-flagged American ambulances drove toward the German lines to return six German nurses who had voluntarily remained in Cherbourg to attend to German wounded, says the British United Press correspondent. A German major and a captain met the ambulances, and as the nurses scrambled out the major remarked: “Hot day, isn t it?” Someone agreed, but there was no further conversation. The ambulances then returned, and immediately afterward there was a terrific exchange ot machinegun and mortar fire.
