.-There
is
no
doubt
that
the
Germans'
delay
in
countering
the
serious
threat
to
their
whole
position
west
of
the
Rhine
has
been
dup
to
their
need
to
hold
the
push
by
United
Kingdom
and
Canadian
troops
from
the
northwest
beyond
Goch
and
Kleve.
The
U.K.-Can-adian
troops
paid
for
their
success
in
this
distraction
of
the
enemy's
attention,-by
meeting
much
heavier
opposition.
"These
observations
help
to
put
into
'
perspective
the
latest
Allied
advances
on
the
West
Front.
United
Kingdom
randiCanadian
troops

opposed
bv
Harge
numbers
of
German's
very
best
-regular
troops
and,
as
a
result,
the
-High
Command
was
not
able
to
find
tea
niRiV
to
hold
the
heavy
attacks
of
the
American
First
and
Ninth
Armies.

whole
operation
was
thus
a
first
""clhVs
example
of
Allied
co-operation.
An
important
point
now
is
not
what
the
Germans
possess
in
the
way
of
fixed
defences,
bur
rather
the
numher
-
"
oriihen
-available
to
them
to
man
these
defenses.
It
is
by
no
means
unlikely
that
the
Germans
may
have
in
reserve
a
small
number
of
divisions,
some
of
them
armored
;
their
problem,
however,
is
to
know
when
to
commit
these.
Not
all
the
Allied
Armies
are
as
yet
engaged
and
the
enemy
may
well
fear
V
that
if
he
now
commits
his
"0J1
Guard"
there
may
come
a.
yet
more
critical
moment
which
will
find
him
without
nt.(f
any.
reserve
whatever.

Southern

A
number
of
neutral
reports
have

that

are
engaged
at
the
present
(ime
on
improving
their
defences,
putting
up

and
laying
more
minefields,
etc.
This
otherwise
inexplicable
defence
of
relatively
unimportant
terrain
at
a
moment
of
crisis,
may
spring
from
the
wish
to
defend
the
forefield

the
Southern

of
Germany's
mountain
fortress.
Eastern
Front
.
.
.'
The
lull
continues
on
the
eastern
front
except
for
the
Pomeranian
campaign,
It
is
remarkable
that
the
Germans
havq-
so
far
staged
no
full
scale
counter-offensive
on
any
vital
sector.
The
best
moment
for
such
a
counter
action
would
have
been
when
the
Russians

had
died
down
and
before
they
could

and

This
moment
is
rapidly

The
war
is
going

most
theatres.
The

inthe
Colcan
Islands
is
an
indication
of
the
importance
which
the
enemy
attaches
to
its
defences.
There
is

vital
importance

and
as

of
Japan.
Tho
neighboring
island
of
Chichigima
possesses
an
excellent
anchorage.
Japanese
casualties
in
the
PhiHn-pine
campaigns
have
been
extremely
heavy,
over
ninety-two
thousand
having
been
lost
in
the
Luzon
fighting
alone.
In
China
too,
the
Japanese
have
been
having
littlq
success..
Heavy
fighting
continues
in
the
neighborhood,
of
the
Hankow-Canton
railway
and,
it
is
at
least
clear
from
the
somewhat
confused
reports
that

It
is
further
reported
that

the
province
of

the

in

of
all
