New Belgian Army Makes Own Supplies and Holds Line Against Germans Headquarters Belgian Artillery Establishment, May 28. Here, where the Belgian army is making its own cannon, its own rifles, its own shells, its own transport wa gons, its own saddles and harness, one can appreciate how other out standing features of the war have unduly obscured the Belgian military effort since the battles of 1914. The Belgian army had six divi sions of infantry and two divisions of cavalry left to hold a line of approx imately eighteen miles, or just about four men to the yard of front; a front where particular vigilance Is required because of the German tac tics of constant trial attacks. No part of the allies' line is more close ly watched and explored by the ene my's patrols. A weak spot anywhere would provoke an immediate offen sive. The Belgian army's new in nearly every feature. Of (he 120,000 men in the Held and 60,000 men who gar risoned the forts, 30,000 fell into the hands of Germans at Liege, Namur and in the retreat; 30,000 more took refuge In Holland and were interned; 14,000 were lost on the Yser in ad dition to more than 20,000 killed and wounded in the battles of Liege, Haelen, St. Trond.
