Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1918-08-10

Foch s. strategy aims to keep the Ger
mans so busy during the three or four
months of fighting weather remaining
this year that they will be unable to
deliver what General Won Ludendorff
noped might be staggering blow. Mean
while all through the winter Americans
will be pouring in for next spring s
battle.
The secondary object of the Somme
drive was the forstalling of another
German thrust toward Amiens, in an at
tempt to reach the allies vital com
munications. This also has been success
full.
The immediate effect of the allied
advances has been to seriously menace
Montdidier. 1t is possible that within a
few days Won Ludendorff will be fore
ed to evacuate the entire Montdidicr
region Such retreat would bring far
reaching results and would compel fur
ther straightening of the German lines
as far south as the Aisne.
Identification Of the 117th German
division as participating in the Somme
fighting is significant, inasmuch as on.
ly few days ago it was fighting on
the Vesle. The fact that it was hurried
to the Somme, arriving the night be-
fore the Franco-British attack and get
ting into the battle without rest, is
some indication of the extent which
the French and Americans chewed up
