BRITISH ARMY HEADQUARTERS
IN FRANCE. Feb. 19. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The great German of
fensive on the western front may be
expected to bepin at any moment. So
far as the British front is concerned,
the main thrust will be made on the
sector between Arras and St. Quentln.
Tanks and a "new mysterious gas"
will be employed by the enemy In the
ttempt to break through the allies
line. Other attacks will be delivered
further south. These facts have be
come known through captured German
prisoners and from information gleaned
In other ways.
The plans of the German higher
command are complete and after many
weeks of Intensive training of assault-
Ing troops they are ready to make the
supreme and final effort, which has
been advertised so widely in the past
weeks.
Field Marshal von Hlndenburg and
General von Ludendorff appear to have
realized that the old methods of at
tack in which a long bombardment Is
employed are too well known to pro
duce the results desired. Accordingly,
the German troops are being told that
surprise attacks, such as were used in
Galicia last Summer at Riga and again
on the Isonzo, are to be tried against
the allies on the western front.
Much stress has been laid on the
fact that tanks and new gas are to
be used, leaving the infantry little
to do but to walk through the gaps
and consolidate the positions captured.
The Germans will find the allied
morale at the highest pitch on the
western front, and their attack will
be far from the surprise desired. The
allies are ready for a big blow and
await with assurance the next move of
the German high command.
The German attack cannot be de
layed much longer. All Information
points to the fact that both German
civilians and soldiers are keyed up to
such a pitch of nervous expectancy
that the strain cannot endure for long.
They are waiting for the attack with
feverish hope that the high command
can this time make good its promise.
The German troops are expected to
fight welL
The coming battles will perhaps be
the most sanguinary of the war, and
they will be the most intense yet
seen. But they will mark the begin
ning of the end. for if the Germans
do not break clear through the allied
line and they cannot they virtually
will be finished. T;he Emperor Is put
ting every ounce of strength into this
great gamble, and if It fails in the
early st:iges it means the end of Prus
sian militarism.
The allied forces have a ' superiority
in numbers, both In men and guns,
and no doubt is felton this front as to
the outcome.
