( aiea with their operation rapidly <lc?- | veloping- into a greatly magnified Verdun. The .similarity with the classic example of a German attempt to beat down an enemy by sheer force is daily growing. This development obtrudes itself not only because o? the narrowing of the area involved in the attack and the practice of hurling great masses of troops at the defenders of a narrow front, regardless of sacrifices, but by reason of the newly developed tendency to alternate the attacks, with rest perio Is j for one sector while the other is '.n j action. I Thus, Saturday tin* main attack was delivered on the allied center, .after the blow launched south of the Sonime Thursday and that driven inte the north ?f the river Friday had spent themselves. Near .Juncton Point. Saturday's big plunge appears t'? have had its starting point just ?o the south of the Somme, where the I'ritish right flank is near the junction point with the French. Apparently aiming at the Albert-Amiens Railway in the vicinity of Corbie, about ton miles east of Amiens, the enemy threw heavy masses of troops towards the opposing* line from Vaire wood east of Corbie. The battle hero seemed likely to develop into one uf importance as affecting the tenure what remained to the entente allies of the wedge-shaped piece of groan-; in the angle formed by the Sonin; and the Anoro.
