May Be Biggest
Battle of War
Recognized That Mighty Conflict
in Belgium Has Only
Begun.
Tpy Associated Pres..1

PARIS. August Tho battle of
Flanders has begun and the indications
arc that It will DO tho biggest battle
OF the war. The offensive of tho French
and British allies had been expected for
some weeks past for, although the
French and British official communica-
lions gave no inklinE OF 1t. the Ger
man reports showed clearly large
scale operation was preparing. The
French public, however, did not know
that French troops had been dispatched
to share In the assault. Originally tho
front from the North Sea coast to Ypres
had been held by tho French in the
Nieuport region, then by the Belglans
as far as Elverdinghe and then by the
British. Tho British troops later re-
lieved the French and part OF tho Bel
CLANS along the const
1t Is thoroughly recognized hero that
tho operation Is only the beginning OF
n battle that will last weeks. perhaps
months. but It is also hoped and be-
lieved that its effects will be in proper
ton to the extraordinary caro- and vast
scale on which it has been prepared
The first part OF the program has
been carried out with complete success
and In n way which augurs well for
Its accomplishment as whole. A
glance at the map Is sufficient to show
the Importance Of tho operations now
under way What has been effected
fully 1ustlfes tho German apprehen-
sions and tho French jubilations. French
military observers say IT Is not too
much to hope that the Germans may
soon be cleared out Of French and Bel
gian Flanders II things continue to go
as we'll as they did yesterday.
