GERMANS LAUNCH ATTACKS

Paris August 5.-The official communi- cation issued by the war office tonight reads
 "On the right bank of the Mouse the enemy made no attempt in the sector of | Thiaumont. He have organized the posi- | tions conquered immediately west of the road from Thiaumont to Fleury and in the village, the entire southern part of which we hold. After violent bombardment, which lasted the entire day, the Germans launched two powerful attacks in the vaux-Le- -Chapitre wood. One of these attacks, broken by our fire. was not able to reach our lines. The enemy, who in the course of the second attack had suc- ceeded in penetrating some clements of our trenches, was immediately driven out by a counter attack. Our front remained intact
 "The usual cannonade occurred on the rest of the front.
 "Aviation: The German aeroplane which fell near Moranville and was re- ported in the communication of this
 morning was brought down by Sergeant
 Lenoir. This Is the sixth enemy aero
 plane accounted for thus far by this pilot.

General Joffre was speaking with great earnestness as he referred to the extent of the German forces massed on the west ern front, but he now turned to another topic. saying:
 to give you this information, yet I think 1t Is the best thing for you to see what is going on for yourselves. You will see on the front an army of which the spirit and energy have remained exactly the same after two years of war. Not only that, but the number of our soldiers at tho

ENGLAND'S CHANGE

"Once more the chance has fallen to England to show the vast extent of her resources, both in men and material, and the extent of her efforts is shown in what has been accomplished on the Somme front. The Italians have had 9 much harder task and a more limited sphere of action and you know how ad- mirably they have fulfilled their part of this common action. As for the re- organized Servian army. it is only just beginning to take it's full part in the war.
 If, on the other side, we consider the condition of our enemy, we know for certain that although they are fighting as desperately as ever. they are drawing on their last reserves Their game has been, up till now, to transfer their reserves from one point other, but with the united action of the allies on all fronts our enemy finds such a course impossible now and will find 1t increasingly so in the future. It is not for me to say how long the struggle Is going to last. but that really matters little.
 We know the crash is coming and you feel as well as we do that we have already reached and passed the turning point. The five months resistance of our troops at Verdun has shattered the hopes of the Germans and turned the scale. But still, do not imagine that there is a com plete weakening of the German effort on the western front. We know there are still opposed to all our armies on the western front two-thirds of the best fight ing forces that Germany can put in the field-that is. 122 divisions of their best troops against the French and British line on the vest and 50 German divisions operating with the Austrian forces along the Russian front"
