From the very outset Mr.. Fletcher has
pronounced the legislature of 1912 one

full credit to the lawmakers who so
faithfully eo-operated to do what is com

a great service for the commonwealth.

A SHORTAGE OF THE HUMAN
ELEMENT.

Concentration of troops by Austria fol
the drive on Italy had its effect in th'
weakening OF the line which was holding
back the Russians in the Nolhynian front
a condition which Austria might have
known Russia would take advantage Of
just as soon as the weather conditions
would permit an advance with heavy
armament. Austriais forces arrayed
against Italy have been variously esti-
mated between 100000 and 650,000; and
Austria could not well afford to spare the
men from the Russian front to make
available either size army against Italy
because Russia is a far more mobile sol
diery than the Italian at the present time
and far more aggressive. Perhaps, as it
has been asserted, Austria was COM
PEELED by Germany to make the drive on
Italy and therefore had no other choice
in the matter than to weaken the far
eastern line. 1t SENS at the present time
like an error in judgment inasmueh as
the Italian defense has been able to hold
up the Austrian drive to a great extent
and inasmuch as Russia has swept to-
ward Austria Hungary in tremendously
strong and rapid offensive. The Austrian
drive on Italy has accomplished little of
real benefit, while Austria has been
driven almost into a rout on the far east
ern front. Here for the first time we are
brought to cognizance that the central
powers are really lacking in the men to
carry on their various ambitious enter
prises. 1t is probable that Germany has
concentrated so many men in the furious
attempt to capture Nerdun that only a
small force could be released to the aid
OF Austria, and Germany cannot afford to
weaken the line which is facing the Rus
slams on the Riga front. Admissions by
the German war Office that their casual /
ties have been only few thousands /
short of 100000 men since the war
started show that the human material I
must be running short in that country, |
although a large percentage of the men
wounded probably recovered and were
sent back to the ranks. Austria is in far I
worse condition than Germany as regards
fighting men. Turkey is more than occu
pied in trying to hold back the Russian
forces from the rich territories of Meso
potamia. The human resources Of Rus
sia are beginning to tell.
