Nav Attack Likely.

Washington, Aug. 15.-A new drive
against the German positions either
in Flanders or between the Disc and
SCISSORS is expected by many army
officers here as a result Of the slow
ing up OF the advance in the Picardy
theatre.
Outlining the situation at his mid
week conference yesterday, Genera
March, chief OF staff, confined his
statements to pointing out that the
Germans have now been forced back
until they are not within so miles
of Paris at any point,
The opinion prevailed among other
officers that the present struggle
around Roye and Lassigny would
soon terminate in the capture of
those points, to be followed by the
taking OF Noyon.
The primary purpose of the two
blows Marshal F'och has struck has
been realized. Both i'm the Aisne-
Marine battle and again in Picardy,
the attacks were defensive measures
to free Paris from the menace OF the
two wedges, the enemy had driven
fn that direction. The value OF the
drives in this respect was pointed
out by General March
