It-was natural that~-the drives in
Picardy, Flanders and about Sois-
sons should slow up. The amazing
fact is that they kept on as long as
lthey-did without any apparent less
ening Of pace. After the first bit,
the element OF surprise is lacking,
and there is an opportunity Tor the
enemy to get his artillery into shape
for defense.
Besides this, pushing drives the
Germans into. some OF those "stra-
tegic positions previously prepared
which they like so well to talk
about. The~evidence in this case IS
that ting strategtr retirements were
unforeseen and undesired. But the
facts remains that the farther back
the enemy is pushed, the stronger
Ibis defenses become.
The Hindenburg line was planned
