GERMAN PRESS BEGINNING TO "HEDGE"
GREAT AIR ACTIVITY URGENT APPEAL TO AMERICA FRANCE WANTS MORE MEN
ISSUES OF GREAT GRAVITY PENDING
There is nothing new to report to-day in regard to the question \ of Japanese intervention beyond the fact that aotion will probably be takea in. about a month. The "high military authority," in his weekly review of the situation, does not throw any fresh light on the: coming offensive in the West. The German Press is beginning to hedge on the offensive. Rather an alarming-looking statement has been made by Sir Corapton-Rickett at the Free Church , Conference, in which he says that issues of extreme gravity to the future of the Empire are pending betweon the Entente Powers and the enemy. These, ho says, may be expected to develop within the week—within the .next few days, even. As the speaker had just had a conference with the Prime Minister, some significance is attached to the statement. France has made an urgent appeal to America for more men, and a division is to be dispatched immediately.
