was stopped and the chan
mel ports west of 0stend
were saved. But the work
of inundation is difficult.
During the World war.
the Allies began their User
flooding operations on Oct.
26, 1914; but it was not
until Oct. 20 that the sea
was induced TO rush
through the destroyed
sluices, helped by a gale.
The flood did not reach Dix
nude, II miles south of the
coast. until four days later.
The Allies now have this
experience to help them.
but they are meeting more
devastating opposition now
than then.
Desperate French fight
ing in the vicinity of Lille
is delaying the enlightenment
by the Germans, but pro-
longed fighting here can
not be expected. Lille is
beyond the effective range
of the guns of the Allied
warships along the coast.
If the French can get most
of their troops within the
curtain of fire Of the war;
ships, their chance OF res
cue will be much increased.
Serious Blow
The loss of Lille Is a seri-
Gus blow to France, for IL
was an important center for
chemical and munitions
plants and had many heavy
industries in operation. The
Germans, however, will
have difficulty repairing
these works, undoubtedly
destroyed by the retreating
French. During the World
war, the Germans held Lille
for four years without max
ing serious use of its manu-
featuring plants. German
officers on temporary leave
used it as a center for re-
taxation.
The strengthening of the
French front along the
Somme il now the major
work of General Weygand.
The Flanders battle is end
ing in a serious Allied de-
feat, similar to the early
defeats of the Allies in the
World war. There is no
reason to believe. however,
that now any more than
then, the eventual outcome
Of the conflict has been de-
termined by the events of
the past three weeks.
Further fighting on an
even greater scale may be
expected now that the war
has become one Of open
maneuyers.
