LONDON, Aug. 30.-The British
have made magnificent gains in the last
twenty four hours. General Horne's
army has almost reached the Drocourt-
Queant switch line, having driven
through powerful dcfences to tho west.
From military point of view and
as a factor with tremendous possibl-
ties there has been no more notable
advance in the last week than the Brit
lsh made east and southeast Of Arras

Withdrawal, and eyen n vow
AS he is Attaching t'd' encr1y's nortn-
ern flank on twelve. mile front it
would be possible for his forces to
crash through the German defcnses in
great numbers. The capture Of Hau-
court, Riencourt and Dui' ecourt came
after desperate fighting, tat the Scot
tish, English and Canadians kave been
able to continue toward Mamblain les
Pres and Eterpigny, both Of which are
in the Drocourt- Queant defensive line
Progress Astride the Scarpc
Astridc the Scarpe the progress has
been equally good, the fiercest fighting
extending along the Arras Cambria road
From Baupaumc to the Somme the
progress has been exceedingly rapid
The Australians have crossed the river
west and south of Peronne, having
quickly brought UP the necessary pom
toons.
Though the retreat in the centre and
Noyon in rapid sequence have been
much more spectacular than the adj
vance east Of Arras, the progress on
the north is infinitely more important.
The enemy can fall back from seven
to ten miles further in the centre and
still have the Hindcnburg line for de-
fence, but in the north he is decidedly
in bad way.
Behind the Droucourt- Queant line he
has another defence at Douai, but his
chief reliance is placed on his present
line, which now is threatened so seri-
ously by Horne's army.
Ludendorff Saving Men
In every way Ludendorff is trying to
conserve his strength, and when he
counter attacks so often anu so vigor-
ously in the north it is perfectly plain
that he is extremely anxious. AS
Haig's reserves are far from exhausted
developments on the front before
Arras can be watched with the great
est confidence.
The Canal du Nord is furnishing a
resting place so much desired by the
sorely tried German troops. That their
rest will be short is certain, for Haig
has lost no time in crossing the river
to the north.
This is the most critical stage of the
whole battle, but fortunately the odds
this time are all with Foch.
