West front. according to official state
ments issued to-day.
Field Marshal Haig reported in his
first account Of operations issued to-

man trenches east of the town and
captured several Of the enemy. In his

time. He also mentioned the fact that
the hostile artillery was especially
lively near Lens, which is not far from

The military correspondent of "The

military offensive on the Western front

I'VE are not much impressed by all
this talk about a great German often

is felt at the front. and. if it should
exist, steps would be taken to clear
it IN.
at would be quite in accordance with
German practice, having drawn French
and British troops to the Italian front,
to lead people to suppose that the
Allies had made a false move. For the
rest there was the question of disros-
ing of the troops released from the
Russian front. The latter is not a
desirable site for winter quarters, and,
in any case. it was not possible to
linger there"
