FALKENHAYN'S DISMISSAL
WHY HE WAS BROKEN. PLANS CLASHED WITH HINDENBURG'S. (Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn.) HAGUE, August 31. The dismissal of von Falkenhayn has caused almost a panic in Germany. The papers were not allowed to comment upon it, but it is generally believed that the plans of Hindenburg and Falkenhayn clashed because the latter did not desire to send troops to the East front, holding that the decision of the war would be made on the West front. The intervention of Roumania caused the Kaiser to side with Hindenburg, and troops are now being rushed to the Russo-Ruumanian frontier.
