BRITISH FIGURES MUCH LOWER
NEW DEVICES HAVE SAVED AN
ARMY CORPS,
NEW YORK, 24th October.
The casualty figures prove a marked decline in the British losses on the Somme compared with those of earlier fighting. Some estimates give the German losses at fully 40 per cent.1- greater than those of the British, whose new methods in attacking and advancing have resulted in saving men. It is believed that the "tajiks" and other inventions have saved the British nearly an army corps.
