shing's forces are not to be held back
simply as reserves while the British
and French troops bear the brunt Of the
fighting on the west front.
The main hope Of the allies for a
victory over Won Hindenburg rests on
the coming offensive strength Of tha
American armies in France. There can
be little hope for positive victory,
however, in the brigading of American
units with British and French divisions.
The brigading process was adopted as
an urgent defensive necessity with no

Americans to save Amiens and the chan

Assistant United States Attorney

bound to win the war and that the

With the British Armies In France,
May 13.-While the German high com
mand is completing preparations for
the third and perhaps the biggest thrust
of ALL sinister silence spreads along
the battle lines.
Six weeks have passed since the com
bined drive of the German and Bavar-
ian crown prince was checked on both
sides of the Somlme and comparatively
little ground has been won by Won
Arnim and Won Quasi on the Lys during
the past four weeks. Yet today more

by the boards.
The allies fighting as one army and
under single commander, not only
have frustrated the enemy s plans but
nave forced almost complete overhaul
ing of his entire army and haxs neecs-
STATED brand new start.

his original plans and like others has
brought new leaders to the west front
including Mackensen, end, according to
reports is concentrating The German
empires total output Of brain, muscle
and material.
Meantime the lines are einionsly in
active although the battlefield has been
unusually dry. Today, however, a cold
autumnal drizzlc was drenching the
area. The airmen scarcely left their
perches. Frequently the artillery on one
side or both, cuts loose spasm Of
shelling, but soon quiets down. the
principal feature Of German activity
is the bombardment with gas shells of
the back areas. Even villages of con-
siderable distance to the rear are dosed
with a harrassing fire. But the British
Runners are better at this game than
The enemy, plastering the German COM
i.unications so that many have been
abandoned as impractieable.

would request that\ passengers pro-

save time in making change. A very
good plan for people using the cars
to considerable extent is to provide

cured from any of the car operators

will stop at the rear side Of the in
