Reading the latest review of the military situ-
alton from London gives scant encouragement to
those who are hoping for speedy end of the
European conflict. Our superiority in the field, "
says the expert of the London Times, "is not yet
adequate since it does not give US that annihilat-
ing Preponderance necessary for victory. Next
spring, having completed our own supplies we
can set to work to arm Russia with will We
can fit out the armies for 1917 and 1913, which
must in the end crush the most frantic efforts of
the central powers, and we can last so long,
or longer if necessary, can be satisfied with
nothing but the complete satisfaction OF our de-
mands." Not much comfort for the dove of
peace in the above lines.
