FRANCE (Via Londor), March 20
The warfare on the western front is
becoming somewhat stationary again,
as the British outposts and patrols
have come face to face with the So
called Hindenburg line. where the
Germans undoubtedly will make de-
termined stand. rhair position is
strong, so the problem again arises
of smashing down this defense with
artillery.
Minor actions continue all alonA
the line between the German rear
guard machine gun detachments and
the British infantry and cavalry
patrols, but nothing like a battle has
yet developed.
The Germans heavy artillery is
coming into play again from fixed
positions back of the Cambrai-St
Quentin lines 1t is reported that the
German emperor recently visited the
territory over which the Germans
retreated, having come with Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg and given
his approval of the methods adopted
during the retreat.
Tho British have discovered a plot
to spread disease among cavalr>
horses, German agent having been
found with phial of meteorological
