Nov. 9. —The French drive against the German line has commenced, i Unless all signs fail, history will record that in the battle of Flanders, as in the German advance upon Paris, Generalj Joffre waited only until he considered j that the German forces had been on the offensive just long enough to batter their strength out against a line that j was impregnable, and then ordered a| general offensive movement in great j strength. it is no' in the l-'rouch strategy to foretell these movements. Indeed the fate of these dispatches with the cen sors rests solely on the understanding that the interpretation placed upon the news of the day front official sources is that of the correspondent and not of any official. It is • permissible to state, however, that in the massing of great bodies ofj reinforcements behind the allied troops on the battle front about Ypres and Arras it was not merely the French j plan to better the Allies' chances of withstanding the impending German at tack, but to be able. when, in the opin ion *. re pulsed, particularly in the direction of Dixmude and to the northeast of Ypres.
