British Front
Showing Increased
Resistance Power
By J. w. +. MASON.
Written for The United Press.)

written for The United Press.)
NEW YORK, April 14.-The Brit
ish front is showing increased powers
of resistance. Won Hindenburg's use
of a quarter of million men with
proportionately heavy German cas-
ualties, against the sector north and
south Of Armentieres, has not yet
caused him to gain possession Of criti-
cally important points.
The German line, however, has
been advanced to several positions
where further progress of a few miles
will develop very serious difficulties
for the allies. Present indications are
that the arrival of reinforcements is
permitting the British and French
armies in the Armentieres sector to
halt the Germans and make Won Hin
denburg's reckless slaughter without
compromising avail.
Hindenburg is throwing away the
/
lives of his men to secure dominating
positions in the unoccupied parts of
Frances two vastly important depart
ments of the Nord and Pas de Calais.
Armentieres is in the latter depart
ment while the Nord department lies
to the northwest. Pas de Calais is one
of the principal coal districts Of
France and Nord, whose capital, Lille,
has been in Germany's possession
since the early days of the war, not
only has extensive coal deposits, but
also is the beast cultivated district in
France.
France, herself, therefore, feels the
critical situation along the north
front, quite apart from the effects OF
the pressure upon the British armies.
Marshal Haig is not only defending
the roads to the chief channel ports
of Bolougne, Calais and Dunkirk, but
he is also preventing a further in
vasion of rich French territory, which
is highly valuable source of sup
plies to the allies.
The hasty despatch of strong
troops to the northern front suggests
that General Foch considers the de-
Tense of this area more important
than the use Of his reserves for often
sive operations elsewhere. 1t is a
high stake for which Won Hindenburg
has chosen to gamble with German
blood, but the dice are now falling
against him.
