British at- tacked on a front of ten miles between Arras and Albert. The jattacks extended from the Ancre River at Beaucourt to just north of Moyenville. Some German field guns and 200 prisoners were taken by the British early. Courcelles and Achiet-Le-Pettit were also captured. 7 Although the enemy had been very vigilant, a heavy night mist, increasing to a steam-like smoke, enabled the British to reach points of assembly without detraction. A great concourse of tanks manouvered into position as quickly as possible. The first advance made at 5:05 o’clock this morning after a very brief “crash” bombardment. Retaliation was light at first, no doubt owing to the Germans’ difficulty in seeing the British troops in the haze and they got on rapidly. Later assaults lengthened the front by another 6,000 yards and materialized according to plans. The general impressison prevails that things are going isfactorily for the British.
