1O.Oc miles Of wire have been set
aside for the special use of the army

How Germans Attack.

1t has frequently been stated Of late
that the German troops attack in mass
formation even in the face OF machine
gun and shell fire, a policy little short
Of suicidal under conditions Of modern
warfare. A Dutch army officer who
has been an observer on the front
says that this is not strictly so. He
states that the attack has the appear
ance Of a mass attack because 1t is
composed Of successive waves Of in
fantry. The rear waves are kept in
close formation to heighten the morale
Of the troops, but the, attack is not
a mass attack, strictly speaking. The
Germans charge IN close order when
they have located what they consider
the weak spot in the line Of defense.
