GERMANS FORESEE FAILURE.
westphalian Newspaper Prepares
Public for the News.

AMSTERDAM, July lS.-The war cor
respondent OF the Rherische WestJael-
tsche Zeitun0 Of Essen. telegraphing
from main headquarters Tuesday. says
THE enemy. composed OF French, Itai-
ians and Americans, fought very
bravely."
The correspondent asserts that a
squadron of sixty French bombing air
planes burst forth from low lying clouds
and pelted the roads Of the Marine VAL
ley with hail OF explosives.
The newspaper. commenting editori-
ally on the battle in the Rheims region,
says 1t is to be assumed that the allied
resistance will grow considerably
stronger and that some days will
dapse before the resistance is fully
broken.
Comment In the German press on the
present German offensive on the Marine
Is in strong contrast to tho observation
on previous German offensives, the ar
ticles now being characterized by
singular restraint.
In the Berliner Taoeblatt yesterday,
for instance. Gen. Baron Won Ardenne
after arguing that the Entente Allies
did not expect the attack where II ac-
tually took place and that the laconic
the Germans were able again to utilize
the factor of surprise, adds:
1T will only be possible to perceive
the stratesic intentions OF the German
army command from the further course
Of the battle"
Gen. Won Ardenne also considers it
probable that the German attack will
not be confined TO the sector near
Rheims.
Victory yet is not a complete one"
he concludes, but the fatherland has
hopes that 1t will become So"
The military critic OF the Deutsche
Td9eszetttng says the only certainty is
that Field Marshal Won Hindenburg is
again taking the initiative. that the En-
tente Allies are being weakened and that
everything which happened during the
course OF the fighting had its good
grounds.
Yesterday the Cologne Gazette con-
fiders the number OF prisoners taken a
high one when II Is borne in mind that
there was no question OF complete
surprise. and that the Entente Allies
did not allow themselves TO be out
fanked or cut or.
The military correspondent OF the
Vosstsche Zeitung also refers to the DIFF
fculty Of utilizing the factor OF surprise,
without which" It adds, success can
hardly be expected"
