Frontal Attack Against the
Allies Is Resorted to
In Coast Fighting
EXPERTS BELIEVE
MOVE is NECESSARY
Troops Will Be Needed Soon
to Check Advance From
the Russian Side

Paris. Nov. lit is becoming more
and more evident to French observers
that Germany is now making maxi
mum effort in Belgium to carry out her
determination to penetrate the battle
tine of the allies with frontal attacK
and reach either Dunkirk or Calais OF
the English channel.
This attack seems to be taxing
place south of Dixmude. What IS des-
cribed in an Official bulletin as very
violent fighting" in the north, continu-
ed this morning The foggy weather OF
the last few days apparently has clear
! ed and the Germans are pushing the
attack.
Nevertheless, Paris seems well salts
fed with the situation of the allies, and
the optimism of the last two weeks
continues unabated.
The German position, however, is be-
ing given considerable close study.
French military critics, from the stand
point of strategy, regard the German
position between two adversaries too
far from each other for united efforts
In the same operation, as favorable
Lne, for the reason that it permits the
nse OF what is called internal lines"
This strategy is simple in theory, but
no. always SO in practice. A classical
example OF internal lines is found in
the campaign of 1914 in France. Ma
polecn, holding the internal lines, beat,
the Austrian army at one point and
then. after leaving sufficient forces be-
fore the Austrians to hold them in
check, proceeded by forced marches
toward the Russian army which he
vanquished in it's turn. Nowadays rail
road transportation makes it possible
10 apply this maneuver to two points a
thousand miles apart. German rail-
roads in particular lend themselves ad-
mirably to this procedure.
Germans Not Victorious.
But there is an essential difference,
French observers point out, between
Napoleon's campaign of a century ago
and that of William II. The operations
of today were not begun in the same
manner. The first draft of troops to
East Prussia was not sent after a vic
kory in France, but after German de-
feat at Gumbinnen and further drafts
of troops are now being sent to the
eastern arena of the war after German
defeats at Augustowo and Warsaw.
Thus, it is not question, in the opin-
Ion of the French critics, of falling on
the second enemy after having beaten
the first, but rather of retiring before
an enemy in a good position in an en-
deavor to limit the success of another
enemy still better placed. 1t is, there.
fore of the first importance for the Ger
mans to beat the allies in Belgium and
free for time at least their line OF
operations in order that they may turn
their attention to the Russians.
This line of argument leads to the
conviction in Paris that the German
endeavor in Belgium will be pursued
with great determination.

GIRL RISKS LIFE
TO WARN CITIZENS
Heroism Displayed by Rose Coppineet
Typical Of Bell Operators the
Country Over.

With buildings burning on every
side, and the telephone exchange filled
with smoke, Miss Rose Coppinger, a
pretty telephone operator of Webbers
Falls, Oklahoma, remained at her
post sending out warnings to citizens
and summoning assistance from the
rural districts.
Miss Coppinger remained on duty
until she fell fainting from her place
at the switchboard and had to be car
ried from the building in wet
blanket. She was the heroine Of the
fire which wiped out the whole bust
ness section of Webbers Falls For
heroic service grateful citizens pre-
sented her with purse of 500, ana
q movement was started to secure
for her a Carnegie medal.
The case of Miss Coppinger is
typical of the bravery displayed by
Bell telephone operators in emer-
gencies. Any number of cases are on
record where these young women re-
manned on duty until the flames drove
them from their posts or they had to
be carried from the exchange building
unconscious.
In the Omaha tornado some months
ago, telephone operators were blown
from their places at the switchboard
by the force of the terrific wind but
they bravely resumed their posts and
kept the shuttles of talk flying through
all the trying hours and in the face
of great danger. Similar bravery was
shown during the floods which swept
Ohio and Indiana. During the floods
operators at exchanges in the stricken
districts remained on duty from thir,
ty-siX to forty-eight hours continuous
ly in some cases, sending out warnings
and relief messages and giving news
of the disaster to the outside world.
