German Attack Deprived
OF Surprise Element
BY HELEN KIRKPATRICK,

By HELEN KIRKPATRICK,
Chicago Daily News Foreign CORRESPONDENT.
LONDON, Nov. 11-If a German
offensive is launched against Holland
and Belgium during the next few
days it will be deprived Of the sur
prise element which has always been
regarded as the primary essential of
a successful campaign. The meeting
of the Belgian cabinet last night
and further Dutch defense measures
taken are not matched in London
by anything visible to the man in
the street, but it Is evident that
Official quarters regard the next days
as critical.
Although some highly placed ex-
perts believe the Germans might
overrun Holland for the sake of air
bases nearer the British coast, it
seems to be the view of air experts
that such bases would be equally
Instantaneous to the Germans.
While they would allow German
fighters to accompany their bombers,
it would, at the same time, allow
British fighters to guard their
bombers in counterattacks. It is
true that bombs would be falling on
Dutch rather than German soil. But
it would bring the German air force
into q more vulnerable position.
Thus, it is the general view that
Germany will invade both Holland
and Belgium in a maneuver to out
flank the British and French lines
on the western front.

certain-is it not reasonable to as
sumo that French motorized divi-
sions (for France, too, possesses mo-

Would the British fleet, backed by
the British air arm, content itself
with looking on supinely while the
Germans occupied the Belgian coast?
Surely not.

Plan
Continued From First Page.)

whereupon, without pausing to
achieve its final goal, the German
general staff would then launch a
double attack on Belgium. utilizing
its famous motorized divisions and
tank formations.
Starting from a line extending
between Roermond and Maastricht
and driving toward the Albert
Canal, the object of the first of
these two attacks would be to cut
Of retreat behind the canal of the
Dutch and Belgian forces stationed
further north and make it impos-
sible for reinforcements to cross the
waterway. The second attack, by
means of tanks, would begin from a
line running between Maastricht
and Aix-La- Chapelle (Aachen), and
follow the Meuse River, thrusting its
way toward the French border and
hindering passage across the river
by Belgian troops advancing from
the north.
Purpose to Take Bases.
The purpose of these initial opera
tons would be to enable the army
coming from Holland to follow the
Belgian coast to the frontier, thus
enabling them to occupy naval and
aerial bases, from which they could
direct their deadly attacks on Eng
land, simultaneously the army, ad-
vancing from the Mouse River
could wind around the Belgian line
of Notifications and hold the strip
of territory between the Mouse and
the border as base for future op-
erations against the more vulnerable
section of the Maginot Line.
Following upon the heels of these
preliminary successes, the Germans
would attempt to wind themselves
along the coast as far as Dunkirk
and, smashing the coastal defenses,
advance farther over the line ex-
tending from st. Omer- Bethune-
Douai- Cambria st. Quentin, follow
ing which they would undertake an
attack on the Maginot Line from
the rear. The real offensive against
the Maginot Line, launched on the
western front, would begin at this
moment up to which the time and
purpose of the German general staff,
for tactical reasons, would have been
to keep as many troops as possible in
that sector by means Of repeated at
tacks on minor scale.
Like most schemes, however, this
scheme is purely theoretical. It
does not and cannot take account
Of the degree of resistance which
the opponent might be able to offer.
Germany is thoroughly convinced
that she can overrun Dutch resist
ance within few hours. But Is this
feasible in face of the elaborate pre-
cautionary measures taken by the
Dutch general staff and which obvi-
ously are being pushed further and
further hour by hour.

meantime no military understanding
