The battle in France and Belgium has become more violent, both the Germans and Allies making furious athicks. Although it was said'in tho offi cial Kronen account of the recent fighting that tho Gor mans wero now on tho defensive everywhere, today's Krcneh War Office statement refers to German attacks at four points. The German statement in turn describes several attacks by tho Allies. As far as can be learned trout these statements, there haR been no marked changes in positions, although in one instance the Krench assert they captured nearly a mile of entrenchments. References to trenches being taken and retaken, to violent bayonet en gagements, and to heavy losses-inflicted, show tho despor ate nature of the struggle.
