threatened the eventual extension OF
the war to the Far East by the june

Must Save Serbia.
The allies heavily engaged in the
Dardanelles now had to face either
the eventuality of the crushing of
Serbia and an unopposed junction of
the armies the Teutonic powers
with those of the Bulgarian-Turkish
coalition, or the additional burden of
a campaign in the Balkans. The
Dardanelles expedition had accom-
plished no appreciable result and the
need of saving Serbia was more urgent
than the opening of the Straits.
There still appeared to be a certain
lack of unanimity among the allies as
to the Gallipoli peninsula and Saloniki.
, The landing at Saloniki was decided
upon, however, and, consented to by
the Greek government before the res
ignation of Premier Venizelos. 1t be-
gan in early October. But it was too
late to save Serbia, attacked by the
Bulgarians on October Z, when the
Germans and Austrians under Field
Marshal Won Mackensen already had
taken Belgrade. Though they fought
heroicaly, the Serbians were over
whelmed by attacks from two sides
and driven into Albania, while the
armies of the central powers formed
a junction with the Bulgarians and
opened the route to Constantinople.
Townshcnd's Defeat a Blow
New difficulties continued to develop
for the Allies, however. In Mesopo-
tamia the Turks stopped the advance
of General Townshends forces within
twenty miles of Bagdad and drove him
back to Kut-el-Amara, besieging MIN
there. In Persia the gendarme revolt

Dispute Over Frontier With

Rome, July 29.-Complying with
request from the Associated Press, the
Italian authorities have prepared
statement reviewing the past year OF
war wrom the Italian viewpoint. Al
though the anniversaries that are
marked by the early days of August
close the second year of the war for
Germany, Austria-Hungary. Russia
France and Great Britain, Italy has
only a little more than passed the first
anniversary of her participation In the
conflict, which began May %, 1915.
But in the view of the Italian authori-
ties. Italy's alignment with the entente
powers has been no small factor IN
checking the successes of the central
powers.
Credit to General Cadorna.
In the statement officially prepared
for the Associated Press. great praise
is bestowed on General Cadorna, the
Italian chief of staff, as "a powerful
organizer and cautious strategist,' who
is declared to have conducted his cam
paign against Austria with a view to
rendering the greatest possible aid to
the entente allies. 1t is asserted that
the early reverses of the Russians
might have run into complete ~disas-
ter if Italy had not just at the time
of the Russian retreat entered the
conflict and forced Austria to employ
a vast number of her troops on the
southern boundaries. Further. the Of

recovering territory lost in the recent
Austrian offensive and still in posses
sion of the Isonzo region, and with the
French and British in possession of
more than thirty villages on the banks
of the Somme that had been occupied
by the Germans for twenty months
and each of them transformed in the
meantime into miniature fortresses.
Can't Predict When 1t Will End.
The Allies have caught up with the
advantage of the Central Powers in
preparation, and any further modifi-
cations of the respective positions of
the contending forces, it is believed,
must be a reconQuest of invaded ter
ritory by the Allies.
The destruction of adversary forces
is another and a far more difficult
matter. In this war the end may be
nearer than many hope or may yet he
far distant. There are no bases OH
which to calculate the progress of
military operations or the resistance
of the belligcreEtS, even when ap-
parently doomed to defeat. What is
clear is that the anticipated ascen-
dency of the Allies, arising from their
unrestricted resources, appears to
have been realized.

north of Arras had diminished in the
absence of further operations and
there was a notable absence of news
favorable to the allies.

pie on the difficulties that beset theta.

back from the armies to the forge and
the laths, and the curve OF munitions
production took a sharp upward turn.
The Industrial efforts of the Allies
were given the required time by the
resistance of the Russian armies. The
Germans advanced, but they could
neither destroy nor dislocate the Rus
sian forces. Despite the formidable
effort of the Central Powers Dvinsk
held out and winter was upon Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg armies

ished. Even had it terminated then
it was too late to turn against the
Allies in the west. Grand Duke Mich

British The entire fall and winter in

Kitchener's Visit in France.
While intensifying to the utmost
their production of arms and ammuni-
ton, the Allies began early in the
second year of hostilities, with the
visit of Field Marshal Earl Kitchener
to France, the series of conferences
that was finally to coordinate their
| military effort.
Their diplomatic action, however,
did not as yet reflect the same unity
of purpose. No parallel result was
obtained either at Athens or Sofia in
negotiations regarding territory in
Macedonia offered to Bulgaria, and
there appeared to be a divergence of
views among the Allies as to further
action Negotiations were still in pro-
gress when Turkey coded the Dedeag

part of Adrianople, to Bulgaria, fore

Germans Cross the Vistula.
Meanwhile, the Germans and Aus
TRANS, after crossing the Vistula and
occupying Russian Poland, trans
ported part OF the troops from the
Russian front to the Save and the
Danube for another offensive against
Serbia, which after her victory over
the Austrians had only 25O,OOO effec-
/ tive men left to oppose them.

Smaller Nations Get Busy.
The first year of the war saw the
entry of several other of tie smaller
nations into the war. Italy and Japan
joined the entente allies and Turkey
with its fear Of Russia Joined the Teu-
tonic allies.
Italy and Austria-Hungary are still
fighting along their frontier with no
great advantage to either side and
Turkey, though it has felt blows from
the strong arm of Russia, has also de-
liyered some In meeting the French
and British in the Dardanelles and in
the Mesopotamian campaigns.
In summing up the results or the
two years fighting, Germany and her
allies are seen to hold the great ad-
vantage in territorial gains through
her possession of Belgium and parts
of northern France. She also has Po-
land and Serbia and Montenegro On
the other hand her loss in commerce,
with her ships driven from the seas
and the loss of the great part of her
colonies discount much of her gains.
The two years of war have brought
death and lifelong injuries to mil

though the Russians were turned back
at many points the French in the west
had opportunity to strengthen their
positions, further their preparations

ton.
There followed the battle of the
Marine wherat the German onrush to-
ward Paris was broken and the Ger
mans forced back. Since that one
great battle the dead and wounded

either side has been inconsiderable.

Operations Larger in East.
On the eastern front there have
been greater gains and losses and the
course Of the war has been more
varied. A territory 900 miles long
and 900 miles wide has been the
scene of many battles and over 1t have
surged the great German and Russian
armies. Time and again the Russians
have pushed forward their great
strength to meet unconquerable Ger

then to push on again In the course

At the close of a two years warfare,
the most horrible of history, wherein
are engaged most of the chief nations
of the world and whose toll of death
and wounded already mounts to mil
lions, there are seen to be large terri
torial gains for the Teutonic allies,
discounted through loss of colonies
and trade, no great advantage to either
side and no prospect of peace for a
long time to come. From every side
there comes the same word: the war
must be carried to it's bitter end.
The second anniversary of the great
war is at hand. When Germany on
August 1, 1914. declared war on Rus
STA, the nations of Europe arranged
themselves with Germany and Austria
Hungary on the one side and France,
Russia and Great Britain on the
other.
The week of July rs to August 1
saw all the first frantic preparations
for the war that so soon was to follow.
1t was on the 25th that Austria and
Serbia severed their diplomatic reIa-
tionS and on the same day the car
ordered the mobilization of his troops
for the support of Serbia. On the
same day the kaiser started home
from Bergen, Norway, and on the day
following Serbians fired upon Austrian
vessels along the Danube river.
On July 37 the car seemed to be
in an unpleasant mood and willing
to fight. On the day following he re-
fused to consider any sort of neutral
ity and promised that the first inva-
sion of Serbia by Germany or Austria
would mean immediate war by Russia
Upon the Teutonic allies. On the fol-
lowing day, July 20, the car assem-
bled his armies and became prepared
for the possibility of a break with the
kaiser.
