BERLIN, July 1.-THE great AL
lied offensive will end i'm defeat in
a few weeks and will be followed by
negotiations for peace, in the opin-
ion of well informed persons in Bes'-
lin. In the British's great struggle
north of the Somme is seen the ma
tional hope for peace to follow the
fighting, especially in Picardy where
the slaughter has been unprece-
dented.
The German people are practically
a unit in believing that the attempt
OF the allies to force the German line
is doomed to failure. Except on a
narrow sector the British have been
unable to make any perceptible i'm
preston on the German line. The
losses in men has been stupendous.
In dashes which frequently carried
General Haig's men beyond Ger
man positions they were Immediately
cut of and killed or captured.
The French have been more pru-
dent. They have made some pro-
gress south OF the SOmme, but thus
far neither side has developed pow
erful enough attacks necessary to
break the deadlock i'm the fighting
on the western front and roll the
Germans out of France and Flan-
ders.
THE feeling prevails here that
when the extent of the British losses
becomes known in England, coupled
with the fact that the German lines
remain intact, public opinion will
demand early peace without further
slaughter. German military experts
are certain that the British will not
give up the attacks without first
feeling out other sectors on the
German front.
Some OF the more optimistic cor
respondents, notably the corres-
pondents at the front, are of she be-
lief that the allied offensive has now
reached standstill.
