Military Strength of Quad
ruple Entente Will Be Mar
shaIed Under One Control.
BELIEVED BlUNDERS
THEN WILL BE CURTAILED
Wisest Leaders of England, France,
Russia and Italy to Direct War
Against Central Powers.
BY OLIVER OWEN KUHN.

Lack Of complete CO. ordination in mill
tary effort not only at home but in the
field, to large measure. has been re-
sponsible for the many blunders made by
the entente powers in their present
campaign against the Germanic ma
tions.
True it is. France. England and Rus
sia have said. I'VE will fight shoulder
to shoulder" and there have been
many conferences between government
al and military leaders OF these ma
tions, but these have invariably con-
cerned finances and general. not imne-
diate, detectives. Military leaders have
chiefly decided all moves in their re-
spective arenas and 1t is true that on
the western front French and British
commanders have worked in unison,
but great central body created by the
consent of the respective entente ma
tions and empowered to decide the
critical questions daily arising on
every front has been lacking. AL
though there may have been every ef-
fort to weld the military strength OF
the allies into a mighty hammer with
which to crush the Teutons. the en-
tente powers have but in small way
realized their expectations Grave
mistakes have been made from military
standpoint These no doubt have pro-
longed the war. Lack of coordination
has been pla ainly manifest in the act.vi
ties OF the government officials at home.

the future there would be greater CO.
operation and more extended consulta-
tton between the s@ .druple entente.
In fact, there is to be created a great
war council the members of which will
be composed of the ministers OF the
crown and the ministers of France.
Russia and Italy will be invited to
send their emissaries to its delibera-
tions. The movements Of the allies on
land and sea will be handled by this
body. It's decisions will be reached
after consultation with military and
naval experts.
The possible results of such a delib-
erative body directing the united and
vast forces of the allied nations can
easily be perceived. Not only will the
armies of all nations be directed as
one, but grave crises, which are bound
to arise during the period Of the war,
can be met moro expeditiously, the mill
tax2 strength Of all nations being mar
tailed as one to meet them.

how soon the allies will be able to

out that Rumania could fall on Bulga-
