FRENCH PAPERS CLAIM GER
MANS FEELING ALLIED
SUCCESS

Paris, Aug. 19,-The German press
is attempting to reassure lis public
that a general retreat is necessary
on the western front to allow Luden-
dorff room to maneuver and assume
the initiative on Ia vast scale, news
papers here report.
The German retreat, they say, must
be direct result of the recent of the
recent Allied successes
Newspapers assert that even of the
Germans receive re-inforcements from
Austria, they have lost the power to
command events, as Foch has the mi.
tiative and will keep it.
German propaganda insists that the
German general staff will retain the
initiative by forcing premature en-
gagements on the American army,
thus wearing it out before it is full
y prepared. L Homme Libre says
hat the Aemrican forces in the Picar-
dy offensive could not be compared in
size with the British and French.
1t says America will soon have a
first class army in France and will
have airplanes which the Germans will
have reason to fear.
