~ ONE. ITALY. July 29.-Complying
with a request from the Associ-

have prepared q statement reviewing
the past year of war from the Italian
viewpoint. Although 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 participa ton
in the conflict. which began Nay %.
1915. But in the view OF the Italian
authorities. Italy's alignment with the
entente powers has been no small fac
tor in checking the successes OF the
central powers.
CadOrna Strikes ut Right Moment.
In the statement officially prepared
for the Associated Press. great praise
IS bestowed on Gen Cadorna. the
Italian chief of staff. as "a powerful
organizer and cautious strategist." who
is declared 10 have conducted his cam
paign agaiust Austria with a view 10
rendering the greatest possible aid 10
the entente allies. It is asserted that
the early reverSes OF the Russians
might have run into complete disaster
If Italy had not just at the time OF the
Russian retreat entered the conflict
and forced Austria TO employ 2 vast
number Of her troops on the southern
boundaries. Further. the offensives
which the Italians have launched from
time 70 time rendered il impossible for
Austria to carry out her purpose Of
sending troops and artillery either TO
the aid Of the German crown prince
for the attack on Verdun or TO fight
the Russians.
AS given out. the italian statement
reads as follows
Wants World to Understand.
The war which Italy Is fighting
with her allies IS imperfectly under
stood abroad in its ideals as well as in
its technical development thus needing
eXplana tons even after a year Of
Italy's participation in the conflict
when the European war began
