PARIS--The French garrison holding Ferbach, center of a bulge extending so deep into the German lines as constantly to threaten the security of Saarbrucken, has been isolated by German howitzer fire, it was announced today.
German artillery completely boxed the borderline coal and factory town, cutting all four roads entering the town but failed to follow up with infantry or tank attacks.
French war communique no. 126 reported tonight it had been a "quiet day." An earlier communique said the "night was generally calm" except for "reciprocal artillery action in the region cast of the Biles River."
