GERMANY's SMASHING ATTACK IN THE
EAST

The smashing victories of the Austro- Germans III
Galica have been won by new method of attack,
according TO the Associated Press correspondent in
Petrograd. The Teutonc Allies have employed in
their battling against the Russians not only an
overpowering weight of artillery, but u tremendous
weight of men.
The Teutons struck the enemy the irresistible
blows of battering ram. The Russians poorly
Differed and scantily supplied with ammunition,
: were rammed and torn and cut day after day All
the hell of war was let loose around them. No
wonder the Teutons took Przcmysl III few days
and are hard upon Lemberg.
For the first time in this war the Germans in
their latest advance into Russian territory have
adopted new tactical formation forS attack. The
new formation is likened by military experts TO the
Macedonian phaIanx- with this difference that it is
composed, not of individuals but of divisions and
army corps.
This phalanx, in the advance from Cracow,
moved along the hse of the GorliceJaslo- Rzeszoff
railway, and incuds ten full army corps, of which
five, forming the main striking head, were picked
troops withdrawn specially for the purpose from
the French 'front.'
The phalanx was superabundanty provided with
artillery, including large number o. heavy bat
terics. The latter were also in many cases brought
across Germany from the French front. For ex-
ample twenty -four battalons of the Prussian Guard
Corps had with them forty batteries, half of which
were of heavy caibcr.
This ancient battle formation, newly applied in
modern war, had naturally tremendous driving
force but it deprived of any great possibilities
Of tactical movement by the fact that it was
chained to line of railway, whereby alone it could
maintain its supplies and munitions ikthe quantis
ties required by such huge concentration.
The rate of movement of the phalanx in for
ward direction cannot have exceeded four miles a
day, in the opinion of Russian experts But its mo-
mentum was irresistible, and it was this. phaanx
formation which forced the crossing Of the San river
al Lezachow. 1t was assisted by immense 1otilla
of aeropanes.
The Germans, in Withdrawing many of their best
troops from the French 'front.' filed the gaps neces-
sary left there with overpowering technical supe-
rority. Thus where the Germans find themselves
opposed by thousand men and two machine guns,
they post hundred men and twenty machine guns,
confident that by continuing on the defensive with
an extended use of the technical adjuncts of war
fare they can safely withdraw their best troops for
temporary service elsewhere.
