Berlin, April 25.-(Via London)
-German naval operations off the
Belgian coast, given out today by
the German admiralty, have in no
way been impeded by the British
attack on Zeebrugge and Ostend.
Ottawa, Ont, April 25.-The ma
val raid at Zeebrugge continues the
all-engrossing topic in England al
most to the exclusion OF the battle
in France, says a Reuter- dispatch
from London.
Special leave has been granted to
the men who participated and
there are columns OF interviews in
the daily press,
Reflecting the spirit of the surviy-
ors, one stated he would 90 again
tomorrow on a similar errand, even
though he knew that he would not
return; others expressed desire
TO go into the mainland and fight
some other German batteries.
Batteries Open Fire.
"All the men testify to the gal
lantry Of the commander of the
Vindictive," the dispatch adds.
Soon after the German batteries
opened fire on the ship, its bridge

who miraculously escaped injury
continued to navigate the vessel.
Great praise is voiced for the
crews OF The submarines which were
blown up under a viaduct There
were six men aboard each Of these
boats. One interviewer stated his
submarine was steered right up to
the beach, where it was spotted by
the Germans, who turned a search
light on it. The crew had a little
dinghy into which they tumbled
with the machine guns and rifles.
They had got away about 200 yards
when the submarine, which was fill

viaduct, under which it had been
placed, blew up.
Hun Was Deceived.
Soon motor boat picked up
the crew. The officer commanding
the motor boat said that the sub
marine had been ten minutes beside
the viaduct before it was discovered.

Yielding only slightly at the first
shock of the German assault in the
renewal OF the drive in the great
battle south of the Somme, the Brit
ish and Frauco-Americau lines are
row standing firm against thc dcs-
perate continuing assaults OF the en-

On the ten-mile front south of
the Somme where the intensive
,.rcc OF the blow has been coucen-
trated, the British have lost Nillers-
BretonneuN, and the French lost
the village of Hangard-en-Santcrrc.
Already Field Marshal Haig's for
ces have begun to react strongly in
the vicinity OF the former place and
they have regained ground around
it and considerably improved their
position.
Haugard has once before been in
