Comes to Life. ~
General Won Mackensen's army
which doubtless had been waiting for
Field Marshal Won Hindenberg to
move in the north also has come to
life again and fighting has been re-
sumcd in southern Poland. Elsewhere
there is no fighting OF more or less
severity along the Russian front, e.
cept in central Poland where the Rus
slams are in such strong positions
that, in the opinion of military men, it
will be impossible to break through.
The Germans claim to have made
further progress with their northern
operations but with the Russians re-
firing it is not likely the main forces
have clashed as yet. The combined
operatins are the most gigantic yet
undertaken, the aim being, according
to military experts, to squeeze the
Russians out of Warsaw City, and
at the same time attempting an in
vasion Of Bessarabla. While this
effort to crush Russia is on there is
little possibility, it is believed, of the
Germans attempting any important
movement in the west.
