Blow for blow around Arras the scene of fighting recently, fighting is evidently still in ordev there. The same may be said of the region between the Sommo and Oise for ft is noticeable that the Allies have claimed nothing there today ex- cept the see saw of advance and re- tirement. They do maintain they have repulsed the enemy near Lass- Igny upon which the Germans made a violent attack. At Solssons. where the Allies recently cleared the Gor- 'mans trcneiics, they have passed the lndvantage by a slight advance. It is Noyon which forms the eih :iw from which the Allied line sweeps eastward, some advance for the Allies is also report- ed at Berry-Au-Bac.
From Belgium comes nothing to In-
dicate any change in the situation be- fore Antwerp, except n brief line that the German attacks along the line of the River ilupel and the River Netli lhave failed. British Press takes oc- Icnlion to emphasise that the battle
‘ of the Alsne holds first claim in the matter of seiisatlonnl interest.
