The situation is summed up in this
manner: The casualties in the Brit
sh army emphasized b. the German
wireless. Although figures from
German sources would be undoubtedly
much exaggerated yet il is certain
from the severity o, the fighting and
from the fact that the entire COM
Blatant forces of tho British army have
been almost continuously engaged that
tho British losses in proportion TO re-
endorsements Immediately available
must be very heavy. II is probable
that one would be approximately ac-
curatc in quoting these as close on
quarter Of million.
Everything points 10 the German
offensive being continued almost inn
mediatciy and should the brunt of the
attack again have TO be borne by tho
British. the situation will be undoubt-
eddy serious unless sufficient troops are
available close at hand in reserve to
strengthen tho line as required 4. &.
should the Germans determine again
TO attack in FLANDERS it is certain that
any advance in the direction OF the
channcl ports @ill be made at great
cost 10 themselves and over the bodies
of the British army"
