COPENHAGEN, July 1s.-Dcnial that
Germany intended to retain Belgium
was made by Count Won Hcrtling, the
German Imperial Chancellor, in the
course Of his speech before the Reichs

"The present possession of Belgium
only means that we have q pawn for

said. "Wc have no intention to keep
Belgium in any form whatever.
What VIC precisely want. as ex-
pressed by us on February a." the
Chancellor continued. sis that after the
war restored Belgium shall as self
dependent state not be subject to any
body as vassal and shall live with US
in good, friendly relations.
Il have held this point of view from
the beginning in regard to Belgium and
still hold it oday. This side of my
policy is fully in conformity with the
general lines the. direction of which |

We are waging the war as a war of

French Hurl Enemy
Back at Tsuo Points
And Score Advance,

LONDON, July 13.--The French again
have attacked the enemy's lines at two
points in the West and thrown him
back for gains, the War Office in Paris
announced to-day
Last night they attacked the, German
line at the tip of the salient driven bv
the foe in his fourth attempt this
year, near the point where General
Mangin threw the Germans back across
the Matz in disastrous defeat. They
advanced more than a quarter of a mile
IN the region of the Porte Farm.
This morning they struck heavier
blow on the west wing of the Crown
Princes salient in the Champagne.
north of the village of Longpont, which
they captured yesterday, and threw
their forces across the Savieres River
where it flows southwark through Long
pont toward the Ourcq. Despite des
perate enemy resistance, the French
pushed their lines forward and took
nearly twoscore prisoners.
80 IfN'A otIdIh yesterday northwest
of Montdidier, in which. they captured
the village of Castel and pushed for
ward to the heights that dominate the
Avre River to the east. the French took
more than six hundred prisoners, the
war Office in Paris announced to-day.
In Flanders the British forces have
been active, capturing nearly a hun
dred prisoners IN successful thrusts
near Nieux Berquin and Merris and
losing exceptionally few men them
selves, Field Marshal Haig stated to-
day. Twenty-Five more prisoners were
taken in patrol fighting north of
Hamel.
The following communication on

War Office tonight:

LONDON, July 13.-British air

nounced tonight. During the same
period the British lost ], 1856 planes.
During the year ending July /,
British airmen on the West front
destroyed 2,150 hostile airplanes and
drove down 1883 out of control" the
statement said.
"In the same period naval avia-
tors, cooperating. shot down 623.
The total of ours missing was 1885.
"On the Italian front, during the
last quarter, the British destroyed
165 enemy planes and drove down
six out of control: on the Salonica
front, in the Last half year, we de-
stroyed twenty-one and drove down
thirteen; IN Egypt and Palestine,
from March to June, we DESTROYED
twenty-six and drove down fifteen.

Censored Hertling
Speech on Belgium
Forecasts Downfall

LONDON. July 13.-Contradctions
of policy among the German officials
seemingly has another illustration in
the manner Of the publication of the
statement made by Count Won Hertling
the German Imperial Chancellor, re-
garding Belgium.
The German wireless service vester-
day put out a long report of Chancel-
lor Won Hertling's speech, which ig-
nored all reference to Belgium. 1t gave
a full report of the Chancellor's dis
cussion of Russia and continued:
In connection with this point the
Imperial Chancellor passed in review
the political situation in the West"
The natural inference seems to he
that whatever officials issued the wire
less version. they did not want Count
Won Hertling's statements regarding
the West circulated. There. was much
curiosity here regarding this part of
his speech which was omitted.
