STRATEGY RETREAT BOOMER
ANG FOR GEN. HINDENBERG.
With French Armies in the Field,
April 21.-French out-Hindenburged
Hindenburg in their great offensive.
It was same strategic superiority
that enabled French to force Ger
mans acceptance Of ground previous
ly chosen by French as site of battle
Of Marine. In same fashion French
forced Germans to accept site of the
present battle Of Aisne on ground
carefully selected by the French
strategists from scissors to Aube-
rive.
HindenbUrg's ::strategic retreat"
was for purpose Of forcing French to
accept battle on ground which Ger
man staff had chosen before linden
burg line. That strategy has now
failed. French did not choose Hind
enburg's line as main point of their
offensive.
LlkeWlSe all WantOn destruction IN
pathway of German retreat, al['raz-
ing, trees, farms and villages, done
to interfere with allies advance, has
now proved utterly useless as mill
taTy step. and completely unjustifi-
able.
Battle Of Aisne is in its sixth day.
It will likely continue for weeks be-
fore decisive moment is reached, ac-
cording to general impression among
