MORAL EFFECT OF
MARNE
HUN INCALCULABLE
By Lowell MeUett
With the BTeneh Armies in Oie Field.
July 21. (Night) (U. P.) "Der fried
enssturm" is not yet.
It was under that name "offensive
for peace" that the German command
ers led their divisions into battle a week
ago, from the consequences of which
they are now endeavoring to extricate'
inemseives.
-This word, obtained rrom prisoners in
all parts of the long battle line, re
veals the ambitious plans with which
the Germans entered the battle.
Because of the promise thus held nut
to more than 50 divisions (600,000 men),
the moral effect of the defeat ' Is in
calculable. German Plaas Budety Upset
The material effect - is more easily
summed up. Epernay is safer than
ever; the forest of the mountain of
Rhelms remains an impregnable barrier
north of the Marne; the-Germans must
content themselves' with the seizure of
Rhelms if they desire to soothe the
folks at home; then take up new posi-
UUUB,
The net result has been the loss of an
appreciable portion of the territory taken
May 27 and the lines of communication
from Sotssons to the rear are seriously
threatened. This much Js certain to
date.
French soldiers are unwilling least
wise as yet to call this the "second bat
tle of the Marne." They prefer to call
it, the-"battle of Rheims mountain."
As they analyse the German plan and
the thoroughness with which it was
shattered, it develops that the enemy did
not seek- to storm the mountain, but
sought to turn it. first by crossing the
Marne;.; then rapidly widnir ki-
bridgehead. . Thence, since they expected
the allies to be strongly entrenched in
me vaiieys or the Marne and th si
toward Paria. they would turn their
backs on the capital and move toward
