LONDON, April 24-( Assoc lated
Press)--As the first blow in what is be-
lieved to be carefully planned out naval
offensive on the part Of the Entente,
. raid In force was made early yester.
day morning against the German sub
marine bases at ostend and Zeebrugge,
on the Belgian coast, at which ports are
the exits Of the BTuEes ship canal. b.
Under cover of heavy smoke screens,
rnised by q fleet Of French destroyers,
British fleet Of obsolete cruisers, with
their holds filled with dry cement,
steamed into the two harbOrs, hammer
ed by the heavy German shore batteries
and the guns Of German .destroyers
When in selected positions the British
cruisers were abandoned by their crews
and sunk by internal explosions, the
crafts settling down across the harbor
channels.
Ono Exit Blocked
AT Zeebrugge, the principal sally port
for the Hun U-boats, the cruisers were
taken well within the section of the
harbor enclosed by the great mole and
sunk across tho entrance to the canal.
At Ostend the success of the attempt
to block the exit was not so completely
successful
In addition TO sinking the cruisers, an
nttack upon the Zeebrugge mole was
made, an old British submarine, filled.
with explosives, being driven against
the piling protecting the mole. The
explosion which tore the submarine to
pieces also wrecked a large portion Of
the mole, tumbling the concrete sections
into. the harbor and adding to the
blockade. ....
While these dashes were being car.

of British marines attacked the shore
defenses from the rear.
Leader Among Killed
The British casualties were heavy, in
proportion to the desperate nature of
the enterprise. The crews of the ships
sunk abandoned them under the con
centrated fire of the shore batteries.

Germans are messing for a re-
sumption Of their main offensive,
the British and French are com
fdently awaiting the coming
smash, In the meanwhile feeling
out the enemy. with numerous
raids and disorganizing their con-
centrations with repeated aerial
attacks.
The Huns, according to dest
patches from Berne, are reinforc-
ing their ranks with large forces
of Hungarians and are clearly
preparing for the anticipated
drive south from the Armentieres
salient, along the Robecq sector.
Men, guns and supplies are being
poured into this front, with the
British bringing up reserves be-
hind their fighting line to hold the
German effort. The Hungarian
achievements are passing to the
front through Liege, while other
Hungarians are being sent north
to Client and Antwerp to do gar
rison duty, releasing the German
regiments for active fighting.

On the Wytschaete sector

German prisoners brought back

the Germans are growing despon-

British airmen have been very

tons OF bombs were dropped on
the German stations and amrnu-

During the raids many air battles
were fought in which the British
