"We don't like to stand In the way

FRENCH MUST HAVE SHELLS
TO UNDERTAKE OFFENSIVE
Generals Assert Lines Can Be Held,
but Munitions Needed
PARIS, Auj:. 14.
Henry Berenger, member of the Senate
Army Commission, In a statement giving
the results of a visit to four of the great
fortresses on the eastern frontier, gives
the following as the unanimous testimony
of the French generals:
"Our front will not give way because
we have enough good soldiers, enough
cannon and, henceforth, wo will have
enough munitions,
"Cur most serious check would not
amount to a retrogression of more than a
few miles. But our front will not coincide
ngaln with our frontier unless Industrial
.Franco gives' to fighting France the sur
plus of projectiles, big cannon and enor
mous bombs necessary to the continuous
operation of arrTTTery, and without which
the most magnificent courage can end
only In spectacular heroism.
"Our army, wth Its actual armament,
will not give ground, but In order that
It shall break through the obstacle before
It, tho artillery must be given supplies
commenturate with the gigantic character
of the war."
