Teuton High Commands Stirred 10 Great Actiuity By the Loss of HiH 70
py Canadian Press, Limited

Canadian Army Headquarters in France, August 1S.-The taking of Hill 70 yester- day stirred the German higher command as nothing else has done on this front this year. Prince Ruprrecht has made frantic efforts to recapture the lost po- sitlons and a grim battle was waged throughout the day particularly on and around Fill 70. Ten times the enemy came on but they seldom got close enough for fighting with the bayonet or bomb. The Prussian guards were subjected to a terrible concentrated fire from our artil- lcry and machine guns. Their losses were frigntful.
 A veteran machine gun officer tells of having had as target for an hour and a quarter enemy endorsements coming up in columns of fours for us in counter attacks. He said his men killed more Germans yesterday than they had seen altogether at any previous time. Pris- oners said that the ground over which their battalions had advanced was thick Y strewn with dead
 The Seventh Prussian division which was in line when the Canadians attacked no longer exists. Their losses during the several days prior to the assault were very serious. The British guns so steadi- ly swept their positions that ration par ties refused to go up and the men in the trenches remained unfed The total
