At KENNEL RiuaIled
Port Arfhur's Dead

LONDON, April 81 (Delayed) The
Reuter- correspondent at British Head
quarters in France sends the following
on the battle now under way:
when Nogi reduced Port Arthur, we
were told by military critics that it
had been in terms of life which no
Western general would have dared face
The German high command obviously
rldicu!es this view it strews the slopes
of KENNEL with German corpses as
thick as autumn leaves in Vallombrosa
and points triumphantly to the COM
parative handful of survivors who have
reached the top.
ut is a simple problem of stayins
power. The enemy is taxing the British
AS heavily as he can, but. in so doing,
he is taxing his own forces relatively
even more heavily. He Is fddling for
positions which would give him greater
advantage in the use of his numerical
superiority. The question is whether,
If he eventually gained these positions,
he would have any numerical superior
ity left. We are now fighting war of
exhaustion, in which the first principle
is to weigh a mile lost against the
thousands of enemy casualties paid
for it,.
"The general Foch) is dealing with
the situation with characteristic ener-
gy, although as TO what counter moves
he may contemplate there is no knowl-
edge. The retaking of Locre by the
French troops was. very dashing ex-
plot. It had cost the enemy three
heavy attacks to force his way into the
little village, which stands in the fork
of the Bailleul and Neuve Eglise roads,
and what an unsuccessful heavy attack
implies in losses is known Situated

[ london Times Says Early Failure
Will Spur America Efforts

LONDON, April 2S.-"There has been
noticeable OF late" says "The Times"
III an editorial, "a tendency to ques-
tion the value OF American assistance
in the great struggle, or at least it's ar
rival in time to prove of real value be-
fore the crisis of the present tussle is
past. This was perhaps only to be ex-
pected as the inevitable refiux of the
first tide of optimism with which
Americas entry into the war was
greeted and the extravagant eXpccta-
tons of its early effect which were
then built rpon that event.
"Since these last have failed to ma
terialize their builders have FASTENED
to cast the blame on America rather
than confess their unwarranted assump-
tions and, swinging over to the other
extreme, now seek to minimize rather
than render justice to undeniable
American achievements. Early assur
Gnces that our American allies would
make their presence felt in the air
first of all are also recalled and we are
asked TO compare these fond hopes
With the unsatisfactory fuliilment of
american Promises in this respect.
Reminders will not be without their
value if they increase our detcanina-
ton to put forth every ounce Of Netfort
CT which we are capable and if they

surest way to win the war is to do all
they can toward winning !. them
selves, leaving nothing which can be
done individually to be done by others
and, above all, by refraining from
hampering the labors of our friends by
unhelpful criticism. We have grumbled
sufficiently at our own achievements
to realize that the path of war rrepara-
ton in the United States must be OBJ
structed with at least as many diff
culties as cur own has been and still is.
"If we have been dissatisfied with
our own rate of progress we may be
very sure that our American friends
have beer equally dissatisfied with
theirs and that true to their national
character, they have been even less
sparing in criticism. Since we have
had to deplore bitterly our own un-
preparedness for the struggle which
was forced upon US. we cannot refuse
to recognize that America was even
less prepared than ourselves, ror to ad-
nit that she has been quicker than we
to acknowledge that performance cam
not be made to jump simultaneously
with project.
''The suggestion that America has
failed to fulfil her promises UP to the
hilt cannot fail to arouse her. She
feels now that she must do more than
justify them and we may rest assured
that she will not only do so but will
do SO at much earlier date than any
one has seriously expected"

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN
FRANCE, Saturday, April 81. - The
stern opposition encountered by the
Germans in their attacks in the region
of the Somme and in Flanders, near
KENNEL Hill, has prevented them thus
far from developing their renewed Of
fensive on the great scale which they
undoubtedly intended. Each of their
attacks may be regarded as an effort
to prepare the way for more extended
action in the event of an important
initial success at either ro:nt, but the
resistance offered at both places ap-
parently discouraged the German com
manders from launching more serious
attempts to break through
In Picardy, where the Germans at
tempted to divide the French from the
British around Villers- Bretonneux and
Hangard, the line remained to-day
very much the same as i. was before
the attack was begun three days ago.
There has been nc resumr tion Of in
fantry fighting since last night. The
only result of the Germans onslaught,
in which they utilized eight divisions,
was the loss of large number of men,
without any advance and certainly with
out obtaining jumping off place for
the real attack they had planned to
make if successful.
The Allied commanders in chief de-
