ODDS AGAINST COUCH
WERE THREE TO ONE

BELFAST, Ireland, May 9.-Gen.
Sir Robert Coughs first public state
ment regarding the conduct of the
Fifth British army which he COM
manded in the retreat from ST. Quen-
tin, comes in the letter to the Lord
Mayor of Belfast.
THE fighting of the Ulster division,
as, indeed, of all the divisions in
the Fifth army against the greatest
odds hurled ON any body of troops
throughout this great war, was mag
nificent. The main features of the
odds against the British are known to
everyone and give some idea of
what these odds were-fourteen in
fsntry divisions against forty Ger
man divisions on March Fl, REIN
forced by some eight to ten more
German divisions during the sub
sequent two days.
"A British divisions was nominally
10000 at the beginning of the war,
but this number has been reduced, ac-
cording to Lieut. Col. Repington, In
some cases to as low as 5000 men.
But estimating a division at $4,000,
which is the present German strength.
Gen Cough had only 10000 men
against 100000 of the enemy when
the attack began and these troops
were reinforced for 10000 to 100000

'I cannot speak too highly Of the
splendid eaimr ess and doggedness
With which many fellow countrymen
net and fought this storm, and
though many laid down the lives

British Empire and France, by per-

fighting spirit they displayed and re-
minding them that further deeds of
gallantry will be required of them in
the coming months
