Second Week of Offensive Begins
With Both Sides Seeking Respite

by J. w. T. Mason, written for
the United Press.]
NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-The second
week of the Anglo French offensive
in the west begins with both sides
seeking a respite. The early intensity
OF the Allies efforts had died and the
Germans are only feebly counter
attacking. This quick exhaustion.
strikingly differentiates this new
struggle from the battle in Flanders
a year ago.
The trench warfare has improved
and has become most elaborate since
the Germans seized Os,end and at
tempted to advance on Dunkirk and
Ca1ias. Then the battles ragged back
ward and forward with continuous
Positions were won and
lost repeatedly and the struggle was
fought largely in the open.
The present Artois and Champagne

detenses have been strengthened and
reinforced as result of continued ex-
periments during the year. Great
numbers of machine guns are in Dos
session of the defence. Results have
demonstrated the inability of con-
ductlng the present operations like
those in the battle of Flanders wear
since. Frequent pauses are necessary
now, while the artillery tries to root
up obstacles. Continuous attacking
by infantry is impossible. A series of
assaults, with rests between, is the
only method that is not suicidal.
As a matter of fact, siege warfare
IS the only method open to the Al
lies. A serious breach in the enemy's
lines is necessary before major ad-
vantage can be obtained. This nat
urally is extremely difficult because
the enemy has many parallel de-
lenses, and all must be captured be-
fore the breach is completed.

Russia's next move will be 10 rush
big army through Roumania to Bull
garia. with or without Roumania's

At the same time Roumania has
told Germany she will not open the

many, however. does not intend to be
thus blocked and her plans call for
meeting the Russians at the Bull

central and western Roumania.
To do this she must withdraw a
considerable force from the bodies
now on the western border OF Ser

this will be readily accomplished in
