General von Kluck has gone Into retirement, but von Kluck's corner at the southwestern curve of the western battle front remains one of the major defenses of the German holdings In France. To compel the evacuation of this area, under penalty of capture of von Kluck's veterans, Is the reasoa why the allies have started their drive so near to the Alsne. Von Kluck's corner Is the Verdun of tbe German western front, and the allies are try ing to duplicate, on a larger scale, the German offensive strategy at Ver dun. An advance of 20 mljes at Saint Quentln will put the allies In a position to dominate the principal lines of communication on which the German southwestern Alsne army relies for its sustenance. How long It will take to reach Saint Quentln depends primarily on the British supply of artillery am munition. The gains of (he British and French since Saturday have heen due to the lntenseness of their artil lery fire. The big guns of the allies have de vastated the German first line trenches before the infantry began to move forward. The hand-to-hand Aghtlng that followed was largely for the possession of craters blown Into the earth by the allies' artillery. Now, however, the allies are un questionably facing German en trenchments fully as strong a those captured during the past 48 hours. It will be necessary to renew the ar tillery attacks and when the second line of defenses Is taken, a third and fourth will romaln to be blasted away before the Infantry can consolidate the gains. Tbe British have' been boarding their ammunition for a year. In this fact must lie the hopes of the allies that the present drive will force the Germans to retire from the Alsne. Pleasant.
