CAMBRIA SITUATION

The situation at Cambrai has menaced the security of the German lines ever since the surprise assault by the allies last year gave them certain strategic advantages. It was through here early today that the Germans were seeking to restore their old lines in preparation for possibly more extensive operations later As reports indicated movement of wide scope today, however, this view was abandoned.
 One thought occurred to all officers here If this is indeed the great Ger man offensive, the supreme military council at Versailles has had ample time and notice to perfect plans to meet IL. It has been officially indicated already that the general reserve, composed or surplus troops of all allied armies ano probably including very heavy prepara- ton of big guns, has been placed under the authority of the Versailles council The plans of that body have contem- plated an assault on any part or the line in France and co-ordinated scheme for massing men and guns at any cer- tain point Is believed to have been worked out. This means that even where the standard three-line defense on the Brit ish front is forced back by the Germans. aualitional armies would be available inn mediately to block their further prog reSs

HUNS ARE ROASTING

London, March 2i.-"We are at the decisive moment of the war, and one of the greatest moments Ill Germany's history said Emperor William in telegram to the Rhenish provincial council, accord ing to Central News dispatch from Amsterdam.
 Field Marshal yon Hindenburs has telegraphed to the Posen pro vincial council as follows:
 God willing, we will also over come the enemy in the west and clear the way to a general peace"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-03-22

There was a distinct feeling to- night that the tumuIt of the Ger
 man gums might cloak some other purpose than to commit the issue of the war to desperate onslaughts against the all hut impreRnable
 allied lines in the west. Supreme
 confidence in the power of those
 lines to resist the shock charac-
 terised the expressions of all offi-
 ciaIs here.
 Some high army officers. here
 tofore confident that the German
 position on all fronts made a de-
 cisive attitude In the west almost
 mandatory, hailed with eagerness
 the possibility that great thrust
 at Paris or the channel ports hnd
 been actually set in motion. They
 believed only some internal press
 sure that would not brook wise
 counsel could force the general
 staff to risk such . venture. They
 believed, too. that . German as-
 sault in the west now would
 bring ultimate triumph of the aI-
 lied cause closer because their
 confidence i'm the resistfng power
 of the allies' armies .is unshak-
 able.
 If this is in fact a German drive said one general officer, T will look upon 1t as the most hopeful sign In the wal thus far. Defeat of the movement Ii certain.
 But I cannot believe that 1t is a req drive. Every requirement. of reason would direct the Germans to press theii of Russa's resources anC Russia's man power to the limit while they held the west front locked against our efforts
 Reports from Holland that peace offel had been made semi officially to tn. entente by Germany caught immediate attention. There was nothing at tho state department to confirm this report but observers saw the possibility thai the menace of the German guns had been turned loose to play q laundering prelude to such an offer for the efEec upon the French and British people.
 WOULD AWE NEUTRALS
 Others saw possible significance in tn, fact that the German onslaugh come. quick on the heels of the acquisition ol Dutch shipping by the United State. and the allies. It was noted that tn, war college statement of this week hat predicted that no German offensive ir the west was to be expected unles, forced by the general strategic situation There was speculation as to whether the incident of the Dutch ships might no have created motive for the drive. The purpose might be. 1t was said,s tt overawe European neutrals. or 1t migh be that realization that the submarin, had failed to block the move ment of American troops to France let to resort to a desperate effort to reaci the channel ports.
 MILITARY STANDPOINT
 From a purely military standpoint tn, launching of an offensive this early II the year is q innovation In the war Experience would indicate that tn, ground is as yet too soft with the winte rains for extensive troop and transpor movements necessitated In pressing hom, great thrust. The spring appears [, be early in Europe, however. and tn, German experts have certainly gauges svery factor before undertaking exten sive operations. It may well be tha prolonged bombardmant. covering man. days of constant gunfire, will follow tn

many is prepared to waste a million
more lives on the western front Of

received here, Socialists and miltar-
ist leaders are understood to have
conferred before the drive began,
reaching an understanding that the
radicals were not to interpose with
any objections as long as the cas-
ualties did not exceed one million,
five hundred thousand mark, but be-
yond that the Socialists are prepared
to stand for reckless use of cannon
fodder, it is said.
