London, July The dubious posi-

feat in Galicia undoubtedly caused
considerable anxiety to the allies dur
ing the past few weeks, but the Cir :
manifesto showing the unshaken re-
solve Of Russia to continue the war
until victory is won has caused q
feeling of great relief. The pushing
back of Russia, through regretted as
considerably prolonging the war, is
not regarded by the allies as mat.

If Germany succeeded in driving
Russia into separate peace, that
would be serious situation, but the
Cars latest call to his people shows
the pro-German element, said to be
active in Petrograd, is absolutely
-powerless and that the whole of Rus
sia is unanimous on fighting to the
bitter end.
The Bulgarian position still Is
wrapped in mystery. There is no
doubt the German Chancellor's visi,
to Vienna was to get Austria's back
