The Reichstag which opens today promises TO
be OF extraordinary interest because of the mo-
mentOus things that have to pass since ii was
last in session. The Verdun adventure has pal
pably failed. The trench deadlock in the west has
been broken by the Franco-British drive. Austria
has reeled under Russian and Italian blows Ru-
mania and Greece have Joined the Entente On
every front the Central Empires have lost the
initiative and reduced 10 hard-pressed
defense.
What effect. il any. will these events have on
the temper Of the Reichstag, its attitude toward
the Government. its policies and conclusions?
Neutral nations keenly interested because there
is rather strong element in German politics which
urges an unrestricted of the submarine against
the enemy's commerce. Should that element gather
support from present conditions and succeed in
shaping the Empires future policies. the dangerous
problems which supposedly were settled by Ger
MANS last to the United States might be re-
vived; and there would be scant hope of settling
them amicably a second time.
Indications. however. point a continuance of
Chancellor Won Bethmann- HOlIweg's control. The
Chancellor. together with most OF the Empires
clearer heads stands for due respect for neutral
rights and, accordingly against ndiscrimnate sub
marine warfare. II. he succeeds as heretofore, in
outgeneTaling the extremists this issue the Ger
man people will be indebted to him and the future
will praise his sound judgment
other questions n crucial import will engage
the attention OF the Reichstag The session will
be crowded and, perhaps. a stormy one.

The Big Drive" Yet to Come.

The AnglO-French offensive which began last
July is commonly spoken of as the Big Drive; and
for intense. sustained effort, it is certainly the
greatest operation the war has yet witnessed But
according to correspondents who usually are we'll
informed, the pounding and pushing OF the last
three months. gigantic though it has been is mere
ly a Prelude to the supreme onslaught which the
Allies preparing to deliver.
Herbert Corey. whose Illuminating articles on
the war appear from time to time in The Journal
writes from Paris that the offensive on the Somme
has been primarily a trial heat, lin which the great
new war machine was warmed and gagged and
jOlted down to its work:
The Big Drive itself will be a far more
comprehensive affair than battle on a twenty
i've kiOmeter front. II is to be an attack
and west, in which every nation of the AL
lies viii exert every pound of weight against
the powers of the center. 1t is to be consid-
sidered not merely as a military offensive on
the western front, but a ring around and a
compression of the Central Empires. When
Bulgaria Quits-and if Bulgaria is given
chance TO quit that may come before water
freezes in the Balkan lakes-Germany and
Austria will be fairly well cut of from their
Turkish allies. There is TO be true concert
of action in which Italy and Russia and Ku-
mama, ana perhaps Greece and Denmark, may
take part. Portugal is to send 60, 900 men to
the western line. The smaller states will be
linked in that chain which is to strange the
central powers today and which is to reduce
them after the war TO a condition in which
they will be unable again to set fire to Europe"
Mr. Corey ventures a guess that the supreme
offensive will begin around October the first
Present developments in the Balkans and the not
able gains of the French and British in the West
make it suppOsable that the Big Drive already has
started.
