War Summary From the Arras Front and Global Fronts
Inclement weather holds Field Marshal Haig's forces near Arras as the British aim to clear the Hindenburg Line and advance toward Douai while German submarines show limited success. France reports 400+ prisoners in the Chevreul region, and Brazil and China draw closer to war with Germany as Russia’s Kerensky travels the fronts. A humor column closes with a quip about a New Hampshire lawyer and a baffled judge.
