Mr Gilmour, writing on Monday, .says: The Americans and Australians hiiYo made a great bulge through tiie Hindenburg Line. They occupy a salient, with the British, probably three miles in depth beyond the Hindenburg system, which was never before penetrated on this sector. Bellicourt, which was tKipturedj was surrounded by a maze of wire entanglements. NanVoy, two miles beyond, proved that the GerL man defensive Hive, constructed with all the skill, ingenuity and labour at the command of Germany under peaceful conditions, is -no longer impregnable. This blow proves " beyond doubt that good troops can easily penetrate the Hindenburg Line.
