Sunday advanced IN nearly a two mile
front from the east of Eaucourt Lab
baye to the Albert Bapaume road, cap
turing in the operation the town of
Eaucourt LAbbaye and throwing their
line to within about four miles OF Cap
aume itself.
In addition the British line to the east
has been sent forward for good gains,
into the German front, according to
London. Valuable work was done by the
new armored tractors in the fighting.
Recent operations by the French
along the Somme front appear to have
been mostly in the nature of minor at
tacks, probably preparatory 10 some
larger movement in the Peronne region.
while the British main effort has been
directed to the thrust toward Bapaume,
along the road from PoZieres.

With the German army before Yer
dun, July 2S.- Cermany's mastery
here has robbed the French of their
greatest chance to cooperate in the
allied drive. If the French positions
had not been under attack by the Ger
mans. they could have hammered
here simultaneously with the British
thrust But the Germans now domi-
nate the city and German officers say
the main thing now is not whether
Germany takes Verdun but that the
Teutons remain masters of the battle
field.
French bravery is what prevented
the Germans from capturing the city,.
