30TII DAY OK BATTLE
Blocked in the center in his Flanders
diivc, Ilindcnburg continues to
flail away at the northern and
southern flanks of his wedge.
The only result of this pressure, how
ever, is an enormously growing
enemy casualty list, it is shown by
.Marshal Haig's official leport. The
communique indicates that the
German assaults are being thrown
back everywhere and that many of
them are being broken up by
artillery fire before they can get
under way.
The French are . assuming n moro
dominant part in the west front
lighting. Not only have their re
serves appeared in great force on
the Flanders battlefield, but they
ate taking the initiative before
Amiens.
London, Apiil 1Q.
The Germans lenewed their at
tacks on both ends of the Flanders
front late yesterday, but wero re
pulsed with very heavy losses, the
War Office announced today.
A determined effort was made by
the Germans to take Kcmmel ridge,
j'ust west ot the loweu end of
Mossines ridge, in Belgium, but tho
assaults broke down under British
fuc.
On the southern flank the Germans
I concentrated their pressure around
Givenchy in the sector of La Basse?
Cunal. but there, too. thev met with
., ,
i a reverse.
Although the German attacks in
I French artillery pounded the Ger
man positions in Picardy on a front
of more than fifty miles from the
Somme to the Oise in one of th
henviest bombardments ever laid
down by the Allies. This bombard
ment extended for miles to the rear
of tho enemy positions. Tlio French
won ground in an. assault in tho
Amiens zone.
Unable to determine from whal
quarter the expected assault wis
coming, the Germans were caught by
surprise when the French suddenly
swept forward on a narrow front ef
scarcely moro than four miles along
the Avre, between Thennes and
"Mailly Raineval. Tho enemy was.
pushed back and the French estsb-
lished themselves in the outskirts oC
Castel, a mile and a half south of
Thennes. This is at tho point f ,
the closest approach of the GerrarMt
to Amiens, a distance of eight mm,. '
