By TelegTftpK—Press Association—Oopyricht London, March 17. A British East African official states that General Smuts is operating in the most difficult part of the German country. If the enemy is thoroughly broken there the effects will be most important r.nd will be likely to lead to.wholesale desertions of natives. The rapidity of the operations is made possible owing to the construction of a strategic railway from Voi crossing a waterless desert and linking up the British frontier. The scenes of General Smuts's latest successes are important railway centres. It is difficult to see what the Germans in retreating along the Tanga railway can do, unless to strike across to the Dar-es-Salaam-TJjiji railway, and make a stand at Tabora.
