following up one successful attack by
another in the face of German artil-
|lery.
1taly's entrance into the war this
year has had disappointing results for
Great Britain, Russia and France
The Italians, after seven months
hghting have not gained as much ter
ritory as Austria offered to cede last
spring in exchange for Italy's benev-
client neutrality. The principal factor
working against Italian success has
been the superiority which trench war
fare gives to an army on the defensive.
The Roman government is now facing
serious though subdued criticism at
home. AS the year ends. there are re-
ports that pressure is being exerted in
favor of the return to power Of the
veteran pro-German ex-Premier Clio
litt. Italy has signed an agreement
with the other members of the quad
ruple entente not to make separate
peace, but II Stgnor Giolitsi were to
be made prime minister he would ur-
doubtedly use his influence for peace
at the earliest moment.
The financial situation among all
the belligerents has steadily grown
more and more serious IS the ex-
penses Of the conflict during the year
have lceaselessly mounted. The total
daily cost Of the war Is now about
$S5,000,000, two-thirds Of which Is be-
ing paid by the quadruple entente, and
one-third by Germany and her allies
The British, who have been most
lavish in their payments, have also
been the most sincere in facing the
critical monetary problems OF the
war. Great Britain alone among the
belligerents has begun to shoulder the
financial burden of the conflict by ac-
ceptfng large war taxes. Elsewhere
the war is prolonged almost exclusive
ly on borrowed money. 1t Is probable
that the exhaustion of golden bullets.
and the accompanying danger Of
economic disaster will be the prin-
cipal determining factors in bringing
the war to an end.
