The present moment is less favor
[ able to the German plans than when
i they started their advance on March
21. Then a weak point existed be
tween the French and British armies.
Now there is no sensitive part of the i
line since the unified command has
? given the opportunity to make the
most practical use of all the allied
troops.
I An all night battle in which the
? Germans, after gaining powerful col
lUmns, hurled ihem up on Hangard-En
ISanterre. resulted in the village
'changing hands several times. .
I Individual combat with bayonets,'
from house to house, were of frequent'
(occurrence. Fire burst out in all di-|
jrections until the village js now ai
I mere heap of smoking ruins which the]
I Germans held this morning with dif
| ficulty, for the French gave \hem no ,
? liberty of movement and their repeated :
efforts to advance further were
stopped as soon as they began.
Meanwhile the artillery extending
l he radius of its tire, bombarded
heavily Rallies. C'astel and Senecat
wood, all situated on the same plateau
jto the southwest of Hangard, which
I elevation bars the route to Amies. The
(enemy launched several assaults upon
|Hailles, and even succeeded in reach
ing the other slopes of Hill 82. JuSt
to the south of this village, but the
French artillery and machine guns pul
an end to his progress here.
AI I He pa.ni p. lime ine uermans were
devoting great attention further north
to the British sector around Qachy,
where the fighting was very severe.
The arniv of General Von tier Mar-|
witz, which contains a division of the!
famous Prussian guards, met the most
determined resistance from the French
whenever ihev came into contact.
The Germans gave more marked (
signs of becoming a disastrous attempt!
in trying to force a way to Amiens i
whatever t he cost. This cost, hitherto j
has been very high, for neither the)
French nor the British are ceding an j
inch of ground without taking the;
heaviest ioil from the German attack
ing forces. Several additional German
I divisions have been terribly tried since
l the offensive was again resumed this
week, and the enemy possesses only
|a limited number more with which to
continue his overwhelming rushes.
From March 21 until today the Ger
mans have employed approximately
130 divisions, of which 30 have been
withdrawn to refill the ranks and have
been sent into the battle for the sec
ond time, making the mtal of divisions
in action 160.
About 70 other divisions have not
vet been engaged in the battle, but
of these, a considerable proportion are
unfitted to do more than bold quiet
sectors. The forward movement must,
therefore, be carried through very
quickly, as onlierwi.se the German
staff will find itself without further!
reserves.
