Winter Shows to
Stop Fighting in
the Alpine Region
(Correspondence

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.)
LAUSANNE, Switzerland. Sept. D.
The Italian troops have had some extra
ordinary surprises in their mountain war
fare against the Austrians. says a spe-
cial correspondent OF the Gazette de Lau-
same, who has been at the Italian front.
The paper says: They have found at
regular intervals from the SteiviO pass
to the AdameIlo glacier, a distance OF
about sixty miles, a series OF 'huts for
lodging Alpine tourists on and near the
peaks. These butts have turned out to
be built on cement floors and the walls
Of the huts lined with sheets of steel
sufficiently thick TO turn bullets. Each
hut mas accommodations for twenty
persons. 1t Is extremely rare to find
twenty Alpinists together in the high
regions, but neither the size OF the huts
nor their number seemed to have at
tracted suspicion because few Italian
Alpinists ever go up into that part OF
the Tyrol. Each OF these armored lodg-
ings is defended by machine guns. The
approaches are so difficult and exposed
that It would seem as though a couple
OF machine guns and dozen men could
hold a hut against a regiment but the
Italians have found ways of overcoming
them. Where there are glaciers the
Alpinists cut narrow trenches In the
ice and gradually work their way up,
protected from rifle and machine gun
fire, to where they can rush a hut"
Winter SHOWS are already falling IN
these high regions and It is not unlikely
that both sides win be reduced to inaetion
during the hard winter In the Tyrol. but
military operations win continue In the
low countries at the head OF the Adria-
tic and perhaps farther south should
the Italians send an expeditionary force
across the Adriatic to operate below
Trieste.
