In that battle tl cfTm-t of the army of the crown prince was to isolate Verdun which was the hinge of the r-rcncTi armies on tbe east as I'aris was on the west. Now Arras is the northern hinge of allied armies and o far the British troops have swung backward on this hinge with fairly steady movement and the tierman drive has Ikcii steadily forced southward into an ever narrowing front. As a result there has come the very real danger to them, incident to the awkward bulge of their lines toward Moudidier. In a word they have broken through iK'tween Arras and the Oic on a very narrow front and the wedge is being stcadilv blunted. They have failed to break tin southern hinge by an attack oT the I'rench and and it would seem that they are now alMtut to attack the northern hinge.
