THE WESTERN FRONT.
ANGLO-FRENCH COMMANDS. ENEMY AID RAID ON RAILWAYS. LONDON, November 22. The "Standard" states that'the British and French Cabinets are anxiously considering the fusion of the Anglo-French commands. Unquestionably, the French General Staff is a more potent organisation now than at the outset of the war* and is more homogeneous than the British. Moreover, many of the British junior staff officers are not familiar with the terrain. AMSTERDAM, November 21. A German official communique says:— "Our aeroplanes dropped a great many bombs successfully on the railways at Poperinghe and Furnes." LOSSES AT LOOS. MORE GERMAN FABRICATIONS. AMSTERDAM, November 21. A German official communique declares that Sir John French's estimate that 9000 Germans were lying in front of the Anglo-French positions, south-west of Loos, on October 8, is an invention. The total German losses were 763.
