on the west line were, generally re-
garded here as the start Of her long
advertised but much doubted major Of
fensive.
That it met with partial success at
the outset. however, did not discour-
age military men, for they declared it
is yet too early to he certain of just
what the Teuton proposes while the
British counter attacks may prove
extremely costly for him.
And there were those who believed
that the smash may be tactical cur.
tain, screening a blow elsewhere.
Some officers still hold the view that
Germany intends a drive in Italy or
Macedonia and that the present move
ment is a feint to cover the other op-
erations and to make it difficult to
shift allied reserves.
But the predominant thought here
in the light OF first accounts of the
struggle, was that Germany is making
the great gamble in the west. That
she intends to be prodigal OF her hui
man cannon fodder is gathered from
her use of massed formations. First
reports indicated that the Germans
wasted many men in the start of the
assault and all past experience shows
that the massed attack is the cost

Penetration of The British lines be-
tween Cambria and LaFere was un-
doubtedly accomplished only with ex-
pensive Teuton casualties And when

move, the Germans may be driven

gained.
If casualties comparable to those

to army men.
Germany might not stand for the

That American troops were over

came rather as surprise here. But
that the Germans may still test them
out on the theory that new troops do
