The chancellor began his speech
with a review Of the military sittis-
ton. He stated that since his last
speech in the Reichstag. the Dar-
danelles enterprise of the Allies has
ended as failure that the Serbian
campaign, together with the Aus
tro-Hungarian and Bulgarian. Al
lies, was brought to a victorious
end; that Montenegro and Albania
likewise are now in the hands of
the German allies that the English
have attempted in vain to relieve
their force at Kut- t-El-Amara that
the Russians have succeeded in oc-
cupying Erzerum with superior
forces; that the Russian attacks
against the front in east Galicia and
the Italian attacks against the Isor-
20 position have been beaten back
The Russians, he continued, also
drove their columns against the
German lines but they broke down
before the resistance of Won Hin
denburg and his heroes. The enc
fny's reports that German military
force has been used up he branded
as erroneous. The Nerdun battle.
lie asserted, proves that where the
operations are prepared with pro-
found foresight and where the
bravery of the German troops is
tested, there is one advantage after
another gained.
The chancellor then expressed
the nations thanks to the soldiers
and their leaders. Discussing the
question of Starving Germany
out" he said:

7915 would not give up this hope.

Germany is equal to the task of
