BLOW BY HUNS
IN "a HOURS, Is
BELIEF OF US.
Opinions Vary on Delay, but
Resumption Seems to
Be Imminent

Washington. May 2S.-Although
there has now been relative calm on
the western war front for almost
a month, military experts here are
not inclined to accept the theory
that something has gone radically
wrong with the plans of the German
high command and that the immedi-
ate danger of the German drive is
over.
There is divergence of opinion
among the Army authorities as 10
what has caused the delay. but there
is unanimity of opinion that every
days delay has helped the Entente
and the United States. Great caution
is in evidence here in attempting to
forecast the next German move.
Secretary Baker said yesterday in
response to inquiry that nothing au-
thoritativc had come to his atten-
ton concerning the reason for the
delay in the German offensive. AT
both the French and British en-
hassies there is a lack of positive
information.
Theories entertained
The theories which receive consid-
Grafton here are the following:
The Germans, after unparalleled
efforts to smash through by continu-
Gus and desperate tactics, found II
necessary to halt and repair damage
to their so-called war machine be-
fore subjecting it to further strain.
This implies replenishing gaps in the
ranks, bringing. up transport lines
and ammunition and a general over
hauling process linked with a respite
for the troops which had borne the
Of fI,o Errl,
The Germans. who had counted
on being much further advanced in
their campaign for the channel
ports, foresaw that the momentum
of their drive would be spent before
they could reach their goal and con-
sequently were forced to resume the
old form of trench warfare.
The Germans found unexpected
resistance at the eleventh hour near
Ypres and were unable to overcome
this last obstacle despite their sacri-
fees and desperation.
German losses have proved far
heavier than generally realized. and
the German high command has seen
that persistency in the policy of at
tempting to smash through regard
less of losses would prove danger
GUS in the end to the morale and
effectiveness of the German armies"
OF these theories the first one is
supported particularly by general
staff officers. These officers are not
surprised at the delay. They say it
was to be expected. in view of the
stiff resistance of Sir Douglass Haig's
troops. that the Germans would be
obliged to call halt to prepare for
their next effort.
1t would not surprise general staff
officers to learn of the resumption of
the drive within the next twenty
four hours.
\ particularly encoura ging fea-
ture of the lull in the fighting is the
fact that every drive so far under
taken on the western front, whether
by the Allies or the Germans. has
ended in about the way which the
present offensive seems to be ending.
