GERMAN LINES ARE PIERCED BY FRENCH (Continued from page 1) 1 icmething mote substantial than words, have taken another tack, which must result either in an at tempt to carry out seemingly vain glorious promises or. result in the German population believing, as the allied leaders long have believed, that the German high command is strong on holding out chimeras and weak in making good its boasts.

The correspondents, it Is statjed, are expected to begin their i journey toward the scene of the pur posed fighting Wednesday. Probably not unconnected with this latest announcement of the Ger mans is the apparent sensitiveness displayed by the German imperial chanwllor.Count von Hertling, over the reclination of the United States and the entente to accept at its face value ; Germany's latest proffer of peace. Running the gamut from Ger many's good intentions to the fate that ultimately will befall the allies for their refusal to be taken in by Germany's sweetened words, the chancellor ended his address-with the well-worn, admonition that for all future bloodshed the allies must accept full responsibility. i Wff Guns Work. In the meanwhile all along the battle, fronts in the west, from the North sea to the Adriatic, the hos tilities continue 1011)6 carried out by means of the big guns. The Americans n the Toui sector continue daily to give ; the enemy little rest, bombarding towns behind the lines and also trenches in the front of; them. Along the Chemin-des-Dames, another portion of the front held by the Americans, there has been a rather heavy play of gas shells from the German, guns, but the men from overseas have an swered four-fold all the German pro jectiles.

If there Is to be no German drive, as the war department pre dicted yesterday in its weekly war review, the council will not be forced to hold its reserves for defensive purposes and can devote this new agency to attempts to smash weak points in the German line. Opinion as to the srtors'offering the beet opportunity for allied as saults varies widely here. There is substantial agreement, however, that the Italian front may in fact be come the main theater of war this yeaT. " Austro-German concentra tions and possible effectives on that front also noted by the weekly war summary, may represent the recogni tion of this view by thertlernian high command.
