which the Germans have suffered at
the hands of the Russians. Germany
must have more troops in the eastern
arena to stem the onrush of the Mus
covite forces. The kaiser must send
fresh equipment into that zone to re-
place what has been lost. The morale
of the German army has suffered
from the Russian victories and the
depression caused by the losses in the
east coupled with the detection
caused by the inability to make prog
ress in the west must inevitably have
decided effect upon the outcome.
Travellers from eastern France. who

there is little danger OF Verdun, Bel
