Special Cable pespatcA TO tn, SUI.

PARIS, Nov. IA day of unsuccess-
full German attacks at different parts
OF the line, with considerable progress
by the Allies in the vicinity of Blk
schoote and minor progress between
La Bassee Canal and Arras is Indicated
by the official news given out this after
noon and tonight. Not since the taking
of Dlxmude have the Germans been able
to make any progress toward their goal
OF the French ports on the Channel.
The German efforts to break through
the Allies line centred at several differ
ent points, notably the bridge head at
Newport, the region to the east and
southeast Of Ypres. the district about
Lassigny and the line Of the Aisne as
far as Berry-au-Bac, to the northeast OF
Zonnebeke, and between la Bassee
Canal and Arras.
At no point, according to the official
report, did these efforts meet with sue
cess. The Allies pushed their line five-
eighths OF mile further east in the out
skirts OF Bixschoote.
Further east the Germans operating
in the Argonne attacked lie Four de
Paris and St. Hubert and were driven
back. They began several movements
in the vicinity of Verdun, but before
these movements were we'll under way
they had been made futile by the French
artillery.
Official reports say that the violence
OF the German attacks on the line de-
Tending the French coast has decreased
and an optimistic tone is taken by the
observers of the Allies, who say that
not only is the Allies line still unbroken
but that In the desperate assaults which
won Dixmude for the Germans and In
the still more desperate attacks all along
the line which followed, eliminating on
Thursday, the Allies did not even fall
back to the positions which had been
prepared for them in the rear with the
expectation that in these strongly pre-
pared positions they would make their
stand
| Three weeks OF ferocious fighting

the taking of Dixmude the correspond
ents see no gain for the Germans IN
spite Of a terrific sacrifice OF men.
