GIVES TO BRITISH CREDIT
FOR VICTORY AT CAMBRIA
Paris Newspaper Recognizes the
Debt Due From France to
Valiant Defenders.

PARIS, Thursday. October 10
France generously recognises the debt
due the British troops for the victory
1t Cambria. Tho Petit Partisan says:
1T Is indeed great British victory
that has Just been won on tho battle
aeld from Cambria to St Quentin. We
say deliberately that It is British
victory. for. although an American d.
vision on Tuesday and wednesday
last gave our allies aid by its mag
niacent dash and although Gen. De-
beny's army has for . long time past
contributed effective assistance. 1t was
nevertheless the British who bore the
brunt of the fighting.
I'VE must certainly admit that the
British have earned a very large
measure Of glory in the successful
operations which are hurting the en-
envy back beyond Lacatau and toward
the Guise. The enemy has in fact
suffered more than defeat. He is
threatened with disaster, to avoid
which he will now have to throw
overheard much Of his ballast
