The sentence was that "continuous fighting has been in progress alongr almost the whole line of battle.” To this generally the French official communication adds the fact that the allied forces have fallen back toward the southwest to avoid an action which might have been engaged under iinfm orablc conditions. How far and to what line the allies liaxe gene is unknown. There can be no revelation of military secrets—hotly 1 ing which a patriotic censursliip could criticise—in stat- - ing these facts because the German army which is engag‘ ing the allies knoWs precisely Where théir first line is drawn and the purpose of the censorship is only to sup- II press facts which might enlighten the enemy.
