BERLIN THINKS
WAR DECISION
HINGES IN EAST
BY CARL w. AckERMAN

United Press staff Correspondent
BERLIN, Nov. 1s.-The war is
approaching a decisive stage. and
the decision will rest with the cam
naign in Pennsylvania and Rumania.
Such is the expert military view
point here. AS summed up today
by well informed military author
ity, the situation is:
The triangular loss at Ancre does
not affect the Somme battle as a
whole. Viewing all the war thea
tres. the whole war has not reached
a period OF tension. The solution
is drawing near. When this shall
come depends upon the progress OF
the present fighting in the Ru-
manian passes.
we are making progress \
but the mountain difficulties
greater than in Serbia. Once &C.
Falkenhayn crosses, my guess is
the decision will come. How long
this will take we do not know. but
one must be patient and await com
ing developments"
