| The Battle of Lorraine |
The 1st Army attacks Sarrebourg, and the 2nd Army attacks Morhange.
Both armies plan to advance into Germany, but the attacks result in a German counter-offensive which effectively ends in a German victory by 25 August.
War credit amounting to £40,000,000 is authorised by the French Government.
The Bank of England issues 10 shilling notes to complement its recently issued £1 notes (see August 7)
