WASHINGTON, Nov o. Official
Washington is deeply stirred as
press dispatches unfold the scope OF
the smashing British victory on the
western front
While army officers we're cautious
in commenting on the significance
of the drive in the absence of official
reports, IL was evident that officials
regarded this as the greatest blow
dealt the Germans since the war
started. They we're especially in
spired by the dash and power dis
played by Field Marshal Haig's great
war machine.
There we're hints in some quarters
of conditions indicating that
shortage OF ammunition attributed to
the German defeat. According to this
view. the German western line has
been stripped of ammunition re-
serves and men from the strategic
reserves to build up the machine
which rolled back the Italian line.
The German high command, II was
said in this connection, had count
ed absolutely upon winter and French
and British forces transferred to sup
port the shaken Italian lines as max.
ing impossible any major offensive
on the western front at this time.
