LONDON, Aug. Is
Namur's fall is admitted by
the war office today. This
success by the Germans is
regarded as ending all hope
of a speedy termination of

The British, it Is believed,
will be compelled to send
every available soldier in the
country to help the allied
forces already In the field.
The newspapers are all
demanding explanations on
the loss of Namur, but be-
yond owning that the Ger
mans have taken it, the war
office is silent.
Experts suggest that the French,
oser-confident. advanced too fast
and were overwhelmed by the Ger
