Paris, Sept. II.
As Paris sees II, the first part Of
Foch's program has been accomplished.
The Germans have peen compelled to
fall back along the whole line from
Arras TO Rheims, and have lost virtu-
ally every inch of ground they gained by
their four great drives begun on March
81 and ended on July IS. the day F'och
struck his tremendous blow on their
flank between the Aisne and the Marne.
So far. the last eight weeks have
marked undoubtedly a great Allied VIC
tory. But it is well to note that no un-
duly optimistic conclusion must be
dra wn from this fact. To state the stu
alton coldly this morning, the enemy
even now has not been driven right back
TO the Hindenbury line either immedi-
ately to the west of Cambria or around
St Quentin, and even when he is, II IL by
no means certain that the Allies will not
have the hardest part of their immedi-
ate task before them.
on the other hand, the fall of La
Fere, which has been in flames since
Thursday, may be expected in the very
near future. This will open widely the
prospect Of the powerful position of St
Gobain heights being turned from the
north, while the fact that Mangin is
steadily biting into the German defense
near Servais must soon enable him to
secure st. Gobain town and its important
railway functions.
ManEin's EnvelopIns Movement
The question arises whether, after de-
stroying their stores at La Fere, the
enemy will be able to inundate any sub
stantial part of the adjacent country
and there delay Mangin's advance In the
same way as they have been able to
hamper Hornes progress in the Sensee
region. II they are able to do this,
however, the continued progress of Man
gins enveloping movement toward Anizy
on the south of the st. Gobain crest will
probably very shortly render the enemy
possesslon of this cornerstone Of his po-
sitions in this district untenable. and
will bring about a radical change in the
whole strategical position.
Opinion in many quarters here is in
clined to the belief that now that the
enemy has to a great extent reached the
Hindenburg line, we may regard the
nresent offensive as ended. This view
however. by no means Is shared by we'll
informed persons. 1t Is known that the
Germans have immensely strengthened
