A significant statement a.^ to the de sirability of Great Britain accepting a separate peace with Austria-Hun gary has lieeu made by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the* House (if Commons. There never has been a question of, making u separate peace,, said the Chancellor, but. as Germany was always trying to detach some of the Allies, it might bo. "that. no blow would seem so fatal to Germany as if one of her own Allies were detached from the tight." On the front of Franco, the British, after days of fierce fighting, have taken in its entirety from the Germans the village of Uoeux to the cast of Arras and north of Gavrello hnve pushed their line forwaw!.

That Great' Britain in immediately ?1o adopt a more aggressive attitude in the war with her navy Is shown by the appointment of a Naval Stall' headed by Admiral Jellicoe.
