If Ludendorff Means to Attempt Stay
ing in France, He Can't Merely Re-
tire to the Hindenburg Line
and There Put Up Defence

Author of ''The World War;" "They Shall Not Pass"

their greater numbers and the unreadi-
ness of the BrNish--an unreadiness
wholly comparabeN with our own last
year---Joffre was never able to exploit
his various successes. He had broken the
German strategy, but his own was not
to be carried to its logical conclusion be-
cause he lacked men, munitions and guns.
Not until the recent fighting in July was
the mechanical equipment of the French
and British equal to the German, al
though numerically Allied superiority in
the West was fairly steady from May.
1915, up to the beginning of the present
year
Now, when Ludendorff was beaten at
the Second Marne his position was SINH
lar to that of Joffre after the failure of
the French offensive in 1914 His own
strategy was temporarily wrecked. He
recognized that he must retire out Of
untenable positions taken only as de-
tail in his own effort to bring the French
and British forces to battle under un-
favorable conditions and destroy them.
He realized that retreat was necessary
in order that, while parrying the blows
of the enemy delivered under advanta-
geous conditions, as result of their
Marne victory, he might regroup his
forces and, at the appropriate moment
following Joffre's example, take the Of
fensive again and accomplish what
.Foffre had accomplished at the Marne
New-York tribune., 1918-09-15

~ n MONDAY, September 9, when
this article was written, Foch's
~ offensive had reached its SUI
preme crisis Within a rela-
lively brief time, perhaps before this
article is in the readers hands, there will
be answered the question of utmost IN
terest and importance-Can Ludendorff
regain the offensive? If he can, even
briefly, the lines will stabilize themselves
on the front familiar throughout the
campaign of 1917, and the end of the
fighting season will arrive before the
Germans can be pushed to the Belgian
frontier
On the other hand, if the cost of the
retreat has been so great that Luden-
cannot wrest the initiative from Foch
and he will have to continue to conform
to the strategical movements of his
great enemy, as he has had to conform
to them for the past two months, ever
since July Is. when the thrust Of Man
gin toward scissors definitively deprived
the Germans of their advantage gained
at the Battle of Picardy on March 21
and retained up to the transformation
Of the Second Battle Of the Marine from
a German to q French operation.
Now the essential thing to recognize
at the outset is that it will be impossible
for Ludendorff merely to retire to the
Hindenburg line and there conduct
passive or even an active defence This
would be possible only if Foch's armies
had been used up by their offensive of
the past weeks, a thing which may be
regarded as utterly unlikely. The
change in the methods of combat in the
past summer has brought back some
thing of the old-fashioned tactical condi-
tions of the period which temporarily
ended at the First Marine
Looking back at that campaign of
1914 we can derive valuable Information
as to the campaign now in progress. In
the opening phase Of the war Joffre took
the offensive, Just as Ludendorff seized
it in March Of this year In the latter
half Of August Joffre pushed armies
into Alsace, Lorraine, Belgium, Luxem-
burg and up to Charleroi. But toward
the end of August all these armies were
retreat, and the initiative passed from
the French to the Germans

The Corella-Boneli Concert.

Rarely, if ever, have the people of
Orleans been privileged to listen to a
concert of such real merit as that
given in the lecture course Friday
evening. Miss Pauline Corella has a
soprano voice of rare quality with a
pure clear tone. The voice Of Rio
cardo Bonelli, was recently charac-
terized by musical critic as "prob-
ably one of the most beautiful Of liv-
ing baritones." He sang in French,
Italian and English. His rendering
of "Little Gray Home in the West"
and Little Mother of Mine," met
with renewed applause. Miss Col
lingbourne is an excellent violinist.
She is master of her instrument and
all listened to her playing with gen.
uine enjoyment. Miss Hyde, pianist
for this company, is a truly splendid
musician. She possesses the ability
to play an excellent solo or to &C.
company other soloists in an I'M
usually accomplished manner. The
entire company had an enthusiastic
reception and the enthusiasm grew
as the program developed. The eve
ning's entertainment will remain a
delightful remembrance for long
time to all who listened to it.
