THE GERMAN REVIEW

Continued From Page One)
 the West continue to surge to and fro
 and three great attempts to break
 through our lines in the winter, spring
 and summer, were repulsed with aw-
 ful losses to our enemies the German and Austro-Hungarian armies on May list lauAched a great offensive against
 the Russian main armies in Galicia.
 "In a series of battles and under constant pursuit the Russians were hunted out of 43,47O square miles of Gaiicia, their principal force was sev-
 cred at several places and they were driven eastward and northward. "The west bank of the Vistula in Poland has been cleared of Russian armies The siege Of Warsaw is about
 to begin and Field Marshal von Hin denburg in the northward has pressed
 forward against Riga and now has | reached the vicinity of the city after numerous victories The successes | of the Germans have cost the Russian army millions in dead, wounded and
 prisoners. The Russian Empire pos | sesses only fragments of it's mighty
 armies and no longer can supply these
 adequately with arms and munitions. Their fate,will be decided very short | ly. The Russian forces will be de- | stroyed or forced to flee deep into the interior to the Eastward.
 ] "The battles in the West have cut
 SO deeply into the French strength
 that now lS-year old lads must bear
 arms. Great Britans original army
 has been destroyed and only enough
 substitutes can be raised to hold a
 44-mile front in Belgium The British losses, particularly those of officers,
 have been very heavy. The army of 3.OO0,0O0 men which Lord Kitchener
 promised six months ago has not yet
 appeared and our opponents in the West never again will be able to raise superior forces to expel the Germans from the country.
 The action in the Dardanelles l which has been in progress foI . months against the Turks shows re suits for the British and French only iI in great losses Of men, ships and wal } supplies of all kinds The Turkish } army steadily is improving in mum - bers and quality.
