firm for q continuation Of the war.
From a secondary theater Of
operations the italian plains have
become the center Of military grav-
ity, with the possibility that the
war will be decided there. Both
sides are steadily concentrating
troops in Italy, and soon the great
est battle of the war may be fought.
It may be the fighting will gradu-
ally deteriorate until it becomes
trench warfare. but the possibili-
ties for a decisive struggle are con-
stantly increasing.
It Is natural to expect that the
Austrians, who were keenest for
peace a month back, now that they
have eliminated the threat to
Trieste and their national prestige,
will be ready to offer great induce
ments to Italy in the hope Of termi-
mating the war. It Is also natural
to expect that the antiwar party in
Italy will attempt to force the gov
eminent to accept her terms.
In the east the Russians are in a
horrible situation. Under the pres
emit disorganfzed conditions they
must face a steadily worse economic
future, with no hope Of recovering

There are 1859 miles of roads APP
proved, 2,271 miles proposed and 45t

comprehensive idea OF what the state
Of North Dakota is going to do for
the cause of good roads.
Helping Good Roads Cause.
The state highway commission
calls attention to the fact that with
the passing Of winter the seasons
maintenance should begin in earnest.
Upon the first thaws, snow can he
placed on bare spots to improve and
prolong the shedding, or drift snow
can be removed to hasten the drying
out Of road surface. bitches, inlets
and outlets of the culverts can be
cleared of snow so that the snow
water may get away quickly. Drag
ging muddy roads even when free
from snow is beneficial because the
water can run off the crown more
quickly and completely, while under
night-freezing and day-thawing, the
frozen surface will stay smooth long
er and dry out faster. After the
frost is out, and the road has been
properly crowned up dragging need

Roll the Snow ls Suggestion.
During the winter, it is stated by
the members Of the commission, that
it may be found advisable to roll
the snow, a method which has been
found very successful in any states,
such as Wisconsin, Michigan and the
New England States. To shovel a
way through a Jig drift is hard and
costly work To break out a new
winter road is often difficult and only
postpones the difficulty until spring.
Providing a passage way by means
Of shOvels or plows usually results
in high snowbanks at the sides so
that a narrow and deep trench is
easily drifted shut again. BY rolling
the snow, the snow road will be hard
and compact until the ground Is
exposed and the sleighing will be
uniformly better and last consider
ably longer without breaking through
and producing slush.

will conclude a separate peace with
Russia, because there is no RESPONSE

terms.
AS head of the entente Lloyd
George must now carry the burdens
OF Italy and Russia, as we'll as
Britain. So far as Italy is concerned,
these burdens will be economic and
political, as we'll as military. Diplo-
macy of the highest order is de-
manded, firmness Is necessary, the
steadiness OF Gibraltar is required,
or the war will end in something
worse than a stalemate for the
allies.

OF dependence the allies place on her

Fortunately, the policy OF gloss
ing over weakness. minimizing de-
feats and magnifyfng successes has
gone for good. It is true there is
still slight fear in some govern
ment circles against letting the peo-
pie into their confidence. but the
mistake is being rapidly corrected.
