French again have been successful
in resuming the "nibbling'' tactics
which the allied command has follow
ed while the Germans prepare for a
new blow. The fighting activity on the
western front, however. still is much
no indications that the Germans are
about to strike.
Important positions on q front of
two miles to depth of two-thirds Of
a mile and $50 prisoners were taken
by the French in their latest effort in
the region Of Longpont, northeast of
Villers+ Cotterets. The sector on which
the gain was made is just south of
where the French last week made inn

st. Pierre Aigle and northward for six
miles toward the Aisne. No counter
attacks have been made by the enc

Australians in their new positions

Drilling Shock Troops.
For several weeks the Germans have
been drilling and instructing special
attacking divisions behind the German
lines leaving the front positions to be
guarded by mediocre troops. German
aerial activity has decreased in the
past few days and it is probable the
airmen also are making ready for the
next onslaught The German artillery
fire has increased to above normal

1t is not unlikely the enemy will
depend upon the element Of surprise
in the impending blow as he did on
March 21 and in the attack against
the Chemin des Danes While the
Germans have been spreading reports
OF an attack against the British, it is
now known they have not constructed
