ence nations hitherto neutral to enter
the war with the entente power a.
"General Joffre then told about th
exceptionally favorable conditions for
th attack. Territorials were to be used
In the trenches, thus freeing the younger
men for the assault The landing of
British troops enabled the commander-in-chief
to hold several armies ready for
th attack. Th number of machine
guns had been doubled and tha heavy
guns replaced by new ones. The amount
of ammunition on hand was unprece
dented. Th moment waa favorahl for
the movement. General Joffre said, be
cause all of Kitchener's army had been
landed In France, whereas the Germans
had withdrawn troops for th Russian
front '
Woald F.ad War at Oar.,
Th commander added that th situs
tion called for an effort on th part of
the soldiers to end th war at one.
"Moreover, a Hrltlsh order was found,
telling the soldiers 'that on the coming
battle depends the fat of coming Brit
ish generations."
"The German official report and th
French and British oruers prove how little
truth there Is In th pretense of the en
emy that It was not Intended to continue
th attack .which began on September 28
and was stopped by th Germans.
"The object of th attack wa to drive
the Germans from French soli, but th
only results obtained on th entire front
were tn on place to the extent of twenty
three kilometre and In another of twelve
kilometres, and these results were not
obtained by th military achievements of
the sttacklng British) but by a successful
surprise resulting from an attack with
gas. In these sections th first German
line waa pressed Into the second line,
which Is by no means th last line.
"According to conservative estimates
the French losses In dead, wounded and
prisoners were 130,000, and th British
losses SO.OOO. (This portion of th German
report waa received from Berl.n yesteid .y
by way of London.) The German loaaes
were not one-fifth of this number."
Allies Victory Not Brllllaat.
The remaining portion of th war office
communication Is summarised as follows
by th Overseas News Agency.
Ths headquarters statement says fur
ther that such local successes as wers
obtained war gained with seven-fold nu
merical superiority prepared for by war
material from th factories of half the
world, and that they cannot b called
"brilliant vlctorle."
"Army headquarters says further that
only on German division which waa on
Its way from th western front was re
tained at th beginning of the enemy's
attacks, and that other divisions were
assigned to tak th place for which th
detained division . was destined- Other
wise th plans of th German army were
not Influenced In any. way by th attack,
which at no place penetrated beyond th
second line, and nowhere rendered Impos
sible movement of reserves Just as was
don In May, when th offensive move
ment at Arras was mads."
