Necessity of the Battle.
A careful following Of the German
press for several months preceding the
launching OF the preser< German of
fensive on March 81. shows that the
battle was deemed by German military
and governmental authorities as alb

sARY for the following reasons:

party of the middle classes. all Of
whom favored the exploitation OF the
Russian success and policy OF concil-

sanction for the offensive a publicity
campaign had to be undertaken in The
German press which had TO be CON
