respondents at the British front. The
decisive failure of- the German ef
forts about Ypics had a depressing
effect, but they are re-organising-.
Enemy piisoncrs complain that too
much is expected of them, while, at
the same time, they declare there is
no abundance of reserves.
With the artillery roaring along
tho Flanders front the British struck
again in the sector of Villers-Bre-tonncux,
on the Picardy front, gain
ing a local advantage, the War Office
reported today.
(Villors-Bietonneux, which is rri
British hands, lies about nine miles
east of Amiens apt', has been the
scene of four British successes with
in the nast ten days. The British re
captured the village from the Ger
mans in one hurst of fighting.)
The artillery on tho Flandeis line
was especially active in the region
of Givcnchy, near Locie and south of
Yprcs, the official statement said.
Tho British made successful raids
south of Arias and east of St. Venant
(on tho sou them end of the Flanders
front), capturing ten prisoners and
five machine guns.
Haig's Itepart
The text of Haig's official state
ment follows:
Local fighting took place to our
advantage last night in the neigh
borhood of Villers-Brctonneux.
We made successful raids south
cf Arras and east of St. Venant in
(he course of which we took ten
prisoners and five machine guns.
The artillery was active on both
sides during the night between
(iivcncliy and the N'fcppe forest
and in the neighborhood of Locro
and south t:f Yprcs.
French troops, in bitter fighting1,
have gained ground on two sectors
before Amiens, in Picardy
