Chatelet railroad. which parallels the
Challerange- Bazancourt line. II they
could cut this the Germans would have
TO retire behind the Aisne. from Cra-
onne to Rethel. and the whole threat
to the French barrier iortresses from
the north would be abolished. On the
other hand. such a retreat would ex-
pose the flank of the Germans holding
the Champagne hills from Craonne to
Laon and might compel a general re-
,irement.
The old figure Of the nut and the
cracker, used in the Warsay operation,
holds perfectly good here. One jaw of
the cracker is the Anglo-French force
in Artois, the other the French force in
Champagne. As the German drive in
Poland converged upon Brest-Litoysk,
from the north and the south, the Brit
ish and French drive is aimed at
Namur. II they could meet behind the
German front the Germans would be
enveloped. But there is small prospect
OF this. What is possible is that the
cutting of lines on both sides Of the
salient will compel German retire
ment, to avoid development, precisely
like that Of the Grand Duke in Poland.
Such a result is simply the maximum
of theoretical possibility. Actually the
British have almost turned the Ger
mans out of Lens and the French have
almost laid hold upon the Bazancourt
railroad. But neither army has yet
finished the work incidental to winning
a considerable but purely local success,
which will have no immediate or
grandiose consequences. A break in the
deadlock in the West remains possible,
but il also remains exceedingly un-
likely.
A Real German Disaster.
On the other hand, the number Of
prisoners taken indicates real Ger
man disaster, and the first that the
French have supplied statistics for At
the Marine the Germans were defeated,
but the number of prisoners taken was
never announced. A total loss of be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 may be reck-
oned on the 10000 prisoners claimed,
while the haul of artillery and equip
ment is considerable. This compares
with about 5000 prisoners taken by the
French In their last drive about SoucheZ
and with less than 1000 taken By the
British at Neuve Chapelle. The extent
of the success remains TO be discov-
cred, but it is by all odds the creates
since the Marine. 1t is a real success
and it is a plain promise that the dead
lock may ultimately be completely
broken and an Allied drive maintained
TO the French frontier.
Its moral effect upon the French and
British public and its political effect
in the Balkans can hardly be exagger-
ated. After six dismal and depressing
months the Allies have scored heavily
how heavily remains unknown-but
only reverse can now remove the adj
vantages of two brilliant local sue
cesses. The operation may yet prove to
be "the great drive" but it has not yet
attained any such dimensions.

NOW THE

Once more while the President and
bis advisers watchfulIy wait in Wash
ington, the borders of Texas have been
raided by Mexican eutthroats. United
States soldiers have been attacked.
and one even murdered. And the only
audible answer from Washington is
that two battleships are on their way
to Vera Cruz-an assurance which
gives but cold comfort to Americans
who remember the exhibition which
followed when battleships went to Vera
Cruz just a little more than a year
ago.
The pitiable truth is that the Wilson
administration is in morals and in
practice just as much responsible for
these Mexican raids and murders of
Americans as though a direct command
Lad gone out from Washington. 1t is
time to end soft phrases about Mexico.
This administration, by the a viii
son variety of diplomacy, has encour.
aged the worst elements in Mexico, has
given them the means of arming, has
winked or even connived at the dis
posal of goods stolen by the bandit
leaders, has virtually told the Mexican
rabble to fight it out among themselves
as TO who shall boss the country, aud
worst shame of all-bluntly told
Americans in the midst of this rapine
and murder that they had better look
cut for themselves, because their home
government would not assume that du-
tY.
