German and French reports agree
there has been no change in the situa
tion, although the French claim to
have made some little progress near
st. Mihiel and in the Argonne. 1t is
however, on the other wing in north
western France and across the Bel
gian border that interest centers
Here a battle is in progress on a line
| from Lassigny northward through
l4oye, Bray-Sur-Somme, Arras and
Lens, while the cavalry is operating
north of Lille. Thus the main armies
of the allies are facing eastward and
the Germans to the west along a

Meanwhile both armies have with

Much is considered to depend upon
the length of the siege at Antwerp.
Every day the Belgians lod out IS
rectoned by the military strategists
here as a day gained by the allies.
Except for siege guns the Belgians
are declared to be about the equal OF
the besiegers and in the battle in the
open it is argued by some of the war
