GEN. COUCH DEFENDED
 BY SIR X. CONAN DOYLE

LONDON. Aug. 10 iby maiD Writ ing in the Evening Standard. Sir A, Conan Doyle, who has developed from a novelist into military critic, de- clares that the retreat of the British Fifth army from St. Quentin when the Germans began their great drive on March 21, was not q disaster, but one of the most honorable episodes of the war
 His article completely reverses the generally accepted theory that the re- tirement of General. Coughs forces was a dsgraceful flight. General Cough has been suspended and is now under charges for being responsible | for it, but Doyle defends his course and calls upon the war office to pub. fish connected narrative of the bat tie and destroy the legend that the British line was broken in the great battle.
 u IS Hot true, says DIT ATthui, that the line was broken. save in the sense that when a division or corps is turned at the Hanks some readjustment is needed to reform the line The miracle is that under the most exacting circumstances the line was never broken, and there was never time when the Germans saw open country before them and could push on where they would

Albert in ten days. It was not the soldiers It was not the politicians. The only people to blame are the idiots and traitors of BrestLitovsk. who. by their defection. sent a tidal wave of a million men rolling across Europe Where that wave struck it was bound to wash something away IL swept the British line back for twenty miles or more, but was never able to break 1t.
 Retreat a Great Feat
 When we get our true perspective the retreat from St. Quentin will rank as one of the remarkable military feats of the war
 The evening of March 2l saw the British Fifth army up in the air and in deadly peril from causes over which it had absolutely no control. The evening of March 2S found the same army. worn and weary, but reinforced and firm, strongly buttressed upon its supports and presenting an unbroken front to the Germans.
 When one knows these facts and when one reads references to the disaster of St Quentin. or to the breaking of the Fifth army one feels that serious injustice was done to our soldiers and to our national rep utation. When the public come to know the whole story in detail. with its hair-breadth escapes, it's desper' ate rallies against monstrous odds with brigades which were smaller than battalions, and visions that were weak brigades, it will find that there are few more honorable episodes ot the war When. if ever, we get true casualty returns of what the Germans lost in that week We shall be better able to determine on which side the disaster lay"

REINFORCEMENTS BROUGHT UP
BY THE ENEMY FAILS TO
STOP THE FRENCH
ADVANCE

With the French Army in France,
Aug. 20.-Reuters)- General Man
gins operations of the past two days
prepared the way for a fresh advance
today. The attack began at teyen
O'Clock this morning on front OF
twenty miles from Pimprez on the
right bank Of the Oise to F'onten1y.
Yesterdays heavy bombardment ap-
parently warned the enemy that an at
tack was coming for during the night
fresh enemy divisions were brought
up from a long distance in the rear
in motor lorries and Jaeger divisions,
the captors of Mont KENNEL. were
shifted from the scissors region TO
help meet the shock of General Man
gins men The Inducements
seem TO have been OF little avail. At
ter three hours of attack the French
had advanced an average of two and
one half miles along The whole front
and thousands of prisoners are be-
ginning to flow back.
The German infantry fought stub
bornly and left considerable dead ON
the ground but their artillery fire was
feeble and virtually no aeroplanes
took part
The whole German line was Ta5sed
one hour after the attack began. Soon
after nine o'clock the French infantry
was signalled on the far side of Audig-
nicourt rayine. on the roads leading
across the plateau.
At the same time the village of
Caisnes. in the Bois della Montasne'
was reached on the left and the troops
we're entering Tartieres, north of the
Aisne on the right.
The most difficult part of the oper-
alton was the passage OF Audisny
court rayine along whose northern
edge ran the main German line of re-
sistance.
