COLONEL REPINGTON'S REVIEW
POSITION IS FAVOURABLE TO THE ALLIES
ENEMY'S INFERIORITY DEMONSTRATED (Published in Tho Times.) (Received September 25, 8.45 a.m.) LONDON, 24th September. Colonel Repington, military correspondent to The Times, reviews the position favourably to the^Allics. There is indisputable evidence that the blockade is severely affecting Germany internally. The Allied hammering at the Somme is increasing the national dejection. Other causes of anxiety are the war loan and the constant shifting of troops on all the fronts to repair deficiencies. When the veil is lifted it will allow that Germany has suffered greater misery and losses of men, money, ships, and credit than can be pos** sibly imagined The Allies,, in' methodically blasting a way towards the Meuse, have encountered and overthrown nearly half the German divisions in the West, and the failures^ to recover the lost ground demonstrate the enemy's inferiority. The pressure in the West is adversely affecting Yon Hindenburg's Eastern plans.
