PRESENT HARD FIGHTING
PRELUDE TO NEXT GREAT
BATTLE
ENEMY REORGANISING AT REAR
(Received Aug. 1, 11.15 a.m.) PARIS, July 31
Experts agree that the present hard fighting is merely a prelude to the next great battle. The enemy is striving desperately to consolidate his front on both wings.
Semi-official opinion is that the Allies north of the Marne are no longer facing isolated rearguards, but a-con-tinuous line of resistance defended by considerable forces, while the enemy is"busily reorganising at the rear. He has not the least hope of revenge either on this front or elsewhere.— At(js.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
