(United Pri-ss Staff Correspondent.) WITH THE BRNTSII ARMIES IN THE FIELD, July 25. On this front three big things loom up out of the year which began middle of last 'summer and ended tire middle of tbis: offensive in Flanders and at Cambrai. The decision to brigade Americans with the British. German offensive. Each will have a large place in the history of this war.

Although at that time there was no such thing as a generalissimo on the Western front, there wav something approaching unity of command, and it bad been agreed ly tween British and French that certain general policies should be followed i nthe Allied olfen- of 1917. Without going into detail, the tactics of the Franeo-British commanders were almost precisely those of Hindenburg and Lndendorff bis year. That is, an was to be turned in a particular and if tbis came to a standstill another offensive should be got under way as quickly as possible somewhere else. So, on April 9, 1917, tho battle of Arras began. A few days later the French attacked between Soissons and Rheims.

The storming ol Messines Ridge came next and after tins the them, broko completely Ihrough before I the panic stricken enemy realized what was going on. Ju trout of the British I infantry lay Cambrai and the country. All that was needed wan a strong fresh army to exploit the I bn ach. The whole Berman front might haev been rolled up. But and that's thr whole story the men were tired and their ranks tnin and, not being strong enough to push on, had.

ten days later, to withdraw out of a dangerous salient. About this time rumors of a great German offensive against the west front began to take lot in. Russian collapse bad become practically eom- plete and a front which had required 7b German divisions to hold down, disappeared. Even at the time of Cambrai Gorman divisions were arriving from Russia and from that moment on the Kaiser's armies in West, grew bigger and bigger. A little over a year ago were but 128 German divisions on western batlefield.

Bv February of tbis year these hud grown to 181. Drily 55 divisions were left in in. two others being in the Balkans and three in Italy, a total of 211.

The Flanders offensive was aimed igainst high ground east and northeast of Vpres, against Passcliendaele, Roulers and the U-boat on Belgian coast.
