London, July 81 Passed by censor. J
This is not cheerful message, but
that America may know how English
men feel during the closing days OF
the third year of the war.
1t is regrettable fact that never
since the retreat from Mons has the
gloom been thicker than it is today in
London IS streets, clubs, homes and even
some governmental offices.
The immediate cause, of course is
Russia s sudden reversal of form after
q totally unexpected and spectacularly
successful offensive. But, secondly, the
suspicion is prevalent that there has
been no appreeiable reduction of the
submarine menace.
Thirdly, there is disappointment over
America s slowness in entering whole
heartedly into the war, as exemplified
by congressional obstruction of Presi-
dent Wilson 3 food program, the ship
ping board muss and so forth.
Fourthly, there is the increased cost
of the war and the prospect of higher
taxes
Filthy, there is a general WEAKNESS
of war.
Country Not Pe8simistic.
One must not suppose that the whole
country is irrevocably plunging into
ressimism. On the other hand, it would
be equally a mistake to conclude that
Premier Lloyd Georges cheerfully opti-
mistic public speeches correctly reflect
the general popular attitude.
If only the west front were consider
ed, there would be no reason for uneasi-
ness. Although England has so far not
erected any "wooden statues" to Field
Marshal Haig-as Germany has done to
Hindenburg-the British commander in
chief holds public confidence even more
than the Hindenburg of German Is most
successful days England is thoroughly
convinced Haig has been the German s
measure; that the enemy is unable seri-
ously TO dent the British line, even if
reinforced by his whole eastern army.
On the other hand, there are mighty
few Englishmen SO rash as to believe

Seventh Night Attack In Sue
cessiOn Brings Only
Heavy Losses
FRENCH HAVE RETAKEN
ALL POSITIONS LOST
Russians, Except at TarnOpOl,
and Runanians Fight
ValiantIy
By Henry Wood.

Omitted Press staff correspondent
With the French Armies in the Field,
July 27.-Two hundred and fifty guns
were mased over the two mile front ON
which the German crown prince last
night tried for the seventh successive
Light to wrest ground from French lines
On the Chemin Des Danes.
1t was probably the most concentrat-
cd, violent assault of all the seven days
fighting the French have withstood.
Eleven German sausage balloons were
sent aloft for artillery range work and
German guns massed only few hun
dred feet apart on the two mile front
poured an inferno of fire on the French
troops. The Germans after concentrat-
ing their effective forces, attacked with
bitter desperation. The crown prince IS
plan of strategy this time was sudden
ly to transfer his attack from the east
Of Hurtebise to the west of that town.
' The two kilometer (two mile) con
centrated attack, however, won nothing
more from the French than the six days
battle over the five kilometer front
(three and one e-tenth miles,.
Between Chevroeaux and Hurtebise
today the French had regained all posi-
tlons lost during the first few days
Of the fighting. They held completely
the plateaus of Caronne and California
and the casemates.
Supporting the belief of tremendous
losses inflicted ON the attacking troops,
it became known today that in Tues
days attack alone the Prussian regi-
ments lost half of their effectiveness
in a few hours.
