GERMANS AND THE '' TANKS.**
The following article, giving the Ger man view of the British Tanks," is issued by the Press Bureau :-
In public the Germans have spoken with two voices about the British "Tanks. With one they say that the Tanks are so useful to us that it is not fair of us to peo them. That was the Quicial volos just antar the Tanks Arst came into action. They were called "as cruel as effective, and it was urged that their ase ought to be barred as inhuman." With its second voice, the less official which it uses through the mega. spice, phone of the German press, the German General Staff said that the Tanks were a failure and need not be minded.
What the German commands really think about the Tanks may be gathered from a battalion order recently issued in the sector south of the Ancre "in view of the danger of attacks by the English I gives detailed directions for
Tanka defensive measures, to be taken before
half past seven the next morning. All roads lending from British to German positions, and not actually used for the passage of German
so as to render port, are to be "obstractillery and trans- traffic, except the passage of material, impossible. They are also to be "cut for a width of to 6 mètres (13 to 20 feet) and to a depth of 14 to 2 mètres (5 ta, fcet), a narrow way being left for the passage of infantry and material."
