Even the Frankfurter Zeitung admits that "Foch's .attack threatens the whole of Hindenburg's plans," and this admission is interpreted by the Phila delphia North American to mean "that the most ambitious of Germany's 1918 offensives has collapsed, and that the invaders, weakened in fighting strength, in morale, and in prestige, must laboriously build up the structure of a new campaign." And, as further foreshadowing Ger many's doom, a correspondent of the Amsterdam Handehblatt says, "from America issues a force against which no European nation can stand. It is a gigantic force which is, devel oping calmly and scientifically. The German people have not seen what I have seen." To gain a succinct and accurate knowledge of the great victory of the Allies in the Marne salient, its initiative, its progress, and what it augurs for the future, you should read the leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST for August 10th. It is accompanied by a full page map which clearly visualizes the present battle line, and the towns, villages, rivers, woods, etc., through which the Allied forces have fought during the past thirty days.
