Hunding Line Is
Outfldnked by Allies

There are several situations along
the front, however which render it
possible and even probable, that
Marshal Foch will seriously inter-
fere with the orderly retirement of
the enemy forces. 1t seems certain
that the Hunding line has been out
flanked in Belgium, where the
Scheldt river has been crossed, and
east of lie Cateau, where the Brit
ish and Americans appear to have
fought their way through all OBJ
structions. This line, therefore, may
be rendered untenable for the Ger
mans, who may be forced to fall
back to the line of the Meuse before
attempting to stand at bay.
