CARPATHIAN BATTLE
STRUGGLE BY GIANTS
Has Been on for Three Weeks. but
Decision for Russia Will Open
Hungarian Invasion.
BY HILARE BELLOC.

London April 1.-THE whole interest
in the war centers at this moment more
than ever upon the Carpathian front.
The struggle there. which has been de-
scribed far too enthusiastically as the
pouring Of Russians over the ridge of
mountains, is and has been for three
weeks an undecided. furious piece OF
wrestling, which leaves no clew so far
as to which way the event will turn.
The elements of the positions are these:
The Russians hold the tops of the noun
tains and passes, and one or two
places as much as five or six miles OF
valleys beyond the passes upon line of
rather more than forty miles. Along the
remaining hundred miles of ridge and
the widest and most densely wooded por-
lions of the Carpathian chain are banks
Of Austrians and Germans, who have
come down through the plains of Galicia
to the East and occupy the whole OF
Bukowina.
In other words IL you draw one line
to represent the ridge of the Carpa-
thians and a second line to represent
the front Of the two armies, the sec
ond line crosses the first at an angle
of about fifteen degrees. giving upon
the left hand a certain belt Of the
Hungarian side of the mountains to
the Russians. but on the right much
wider belt of the Galicia or eastern
slope. to the Austro-Germans.
Now, under these conditions. the 'ef-
forts which either party has under
taken is clear. Each is trying by
pushing further and further forward
on his side of the mountains to get
behind the other
II the Russians could get down to
the Hungarian plain and turn to the
left they would cut the 'communica-
lions of the Austro-Germans and COM
pei them to fall back from all their
positions in the mountains. In other
words. the barrier of the Carpathians
would have been wholly surmounted by
the Russians and the invasion of Hun
gary will have begun.
II, on the other hand. the Austro-
Germans can push further along the
Galician plain and threaten the rear of
the Russians the Russians will have to
fall back and abandon the whole of
what they now occupy and in the
mountains.

There is comparatively little orig
inality in the world. Most great &C
complishments are the result of eN-
perience, coming from interminglinE
with others. from absorbing others
opinions and others knowledge
The great man uses all he can OBJ
tain, adds his own ability to the con-
glomerate mass, and then produces
something of public benefit.
No business giant was ever large
enough to succeed alone. Around him
he gathered competent advisers. and,
although he may have rendered the
final decision and thrown the casting
vote, what he said and what he did
was not wholly his own. He repre-
scented the many and simply had abil-
ity enough to use what others hac
combined with what he himself had.
| am not suggesting that you shelve
your individuality. that you refuse to
think and act on your own initiative:
but | am saying to you. especially il
you are just entering business, that
you will probably be safer in the
hands of others. or. rather, with the
assistance of others, than you will be
if you start out for yourself with only
your own personal experience back of
you.
Learn to tread in the tracks of other
people If you would successfully walk
the street of accomplishment.
