"Ever since the beginning of history in western Europe, Soissons, storm centre of the most bitter fighting of recent weeks in the western war theatre, has taken a prominently-chronicled part," says a statement issued by the National Geographic Society. "Before the Roman tide, directed by Julius Caesar, flowed over Gaul, Sois-sons, then a metropolis in a nation of 12 cities, was the capital of the warlike Sues-siones, ne of the most powerful peoples in Gaid. Diviciacus, one of their kings, had even managed to extend his authority beyond the sea, among the Britons.

"Soissons is a small town picturesquely situated among well forested hills, on the left bank of the Aisne. It lies 6o miles northeast of Paris, and constitutes one of the links in the chain of French second-line defences. The region all about Sois-sons is agricultural, and the city's trade is mostly in grains, vegetable, livestock, leather and forest products. Manufactures of the place are not of great importance; they consist of leather, foundry products, flannel and cotton cloth and farm implements. There are extensive lumber yards in the city.

"The one-time importance of Soisaons has long been waning. The siege, bombardment, sack and brand of war have been rejeated often in the experiences of the city and seem at last to have sapped its will for further growth.
