STA should have a better equip
ped and larger army at her dis
posal than at any time during
the war. The empire Of car
saw is ebb from a military point
of view in August and Septem-
Der, 1915, and since then the
tide has been coming steadily
back. Those who see the Ger

not but notice the difference in
the men that are now being sent
to the firing line.
From the point of human ma

WHAT CAN RUSSIA DO
THIS SUMMER?

The question which seems up
permost in everyone's mind in
America in regard to Russia is
whether or not she will be able
to "come back" this summer
with an important offensive.
This is purely a question Of ma
terial. It must be understood
that there will never in this war
be a shortage of men in Russia,
and that she can continue rails
ing millions as fast as she can
find arms to put in their hands
and shells to shoot. The lack
of these is the one vital reason
for Russian disaster.
