in the north. Monte Santo is the real

the commanding positions on the west

also all the mountains whicn aors-

since their recent capture Of heights

ians have overcome almost unbeiiev-
able difficulties and brought their
mountain guns to bear on the Aus

actually blown the Austrian positions

made the assault that won them the
coveted position

The Italian army is now making
frontal attacks against these positions
and the commands have advarced
their left flank we'll along the coast
of the Adriatic towards Trieste.
There is another phase Of italian
activity which is generally overlooked
and that is the control Of the Adri-
