On the Eastern Front the Rumanians have had another week
of very Revere fighting, as the result of which their southern front has been drawn back a little way south of Ocna, in the Carpathian foothills. Their southern centre, at Marasesti, on the Sereth, was seriously threatened by heavy attacks last Sunday, but the Rumanians counter-attacked next day and metered the position. A German advance in Eastern Bukowina, near the town of Sereth,
again menaces the Rumanians from the north. The Russian line is now being attacked at various points, from Brody to the Baltic. On Monday the enemy began an offensive on the Riga front, and pushed the Russians back in the swampy valley of the As. It rooms unlikely, however, that the enemy will undertake lame operations in the East while leis so fully occupied in the West.
