The article presents several summaries of various news. The result of these efforts on the western front has led to the conviction that the Germans are on the eve of making another strategic retreat before the British and French wedges in the Flanders and Aisne sectors. Whether or not there is another line as powerfully constructed as the famous Hindenburg entrenchments, where they withdrew last year, is a matter of military doubt. The article also focuses on the decision of the Custodian of Enemy Property in this country to collect all debts owing to Americans by German subjects, which are said to amount to $200,000,000, and to sequester this amount with a view to investing it in Liberty bonds, was announced last week.
