"Our patrols have been act iv' in No Man's Land and our scouts have made themselves familiar with the (letails of the hostile position oppo site them. "AnotI(1' event of iint )orta nce took place in France. The inter-allied sitpremle wir counil met at Versail les, attenled by General )liss, chief of staff of the army. and Ge(neral Pershing as well as the representa Iives of France, (,reat Britain and Italy. Complete and close co-opera tion between the Allies and ourselves, and a harmonious understanding he tween the supreme commands of all the forces engaged. promises to show positive results. Unity of purpose on all fronts will thus he attained. 'iDuring the past seven (lay period the world has been flooded with the news of very serious internal unrest In Germanny. Widespreadl strikos amion~g mluniitionls wvorkers are report edI.

"During the week hostile conecen trationis ill thei west continued. In certain (iluarters thre repiorts spread by thre enemy, thait he holds a prepond eranee of nlumler'ical superiority in , the west have gained some credence. Whil positive proof has been receiv ed that tile enemy has removed troops from the eastern theatre, and is stripping other fronts for the com ing struggle in the west, nevertheless the allies are believed still to hold very appreciable numrical superior ity both in men and guns. "in the Bitish theatre numerous raids took place. South of Lens and northeast of ILngemnarck, as well as south of the Senrpe, the Glermans sent out reconnoitering detachments. The British forces were also busily engaged Rounding the enemy line, identifying new units, taking mnas u) re of the value of the new conting ents which are arriving along the Gherman line in the west from other theatres. .
