LONDON. Nov. 10. - AT
dawn today the British launched
another big attack or the Ger
man lines in West Flanders. The
war office announced at noon
that favorable progress is being
made.
In stormy weather and
through muddy Swamps that
impeded their progress the Brit
iSh troops drove forward from
a position northwest of Pass
Schendaele, which was captured
several days ago.
The drive is believed here to be
a continuance OF Gen. Haig's plan
to smash through the German lines
10 Roulers. The capture OF that
town is expected TO finally result in
driving the Germans from their
submarine bases at Zeebrugge and
Ostend.
Gen. Hais's report TO the war Of
lice today was laconic:
AZ dawn today we attacked
northwest OF Passchendaele. he
stated. We have made good prog
