Blow at Italy Blow mt Us All

\ the full extent of the Austro-German
campaign against Italy is revealed. the
more certain becomes the plan OF action OF
the central powers. They are dealing with
one enemy at IA time. Already they regard
Russia as eliminated from the fight in so far
as this Seasons work is concerned. and their
assumption is proved correct by the announce
ment of Premier Eerensky that Russia worn
out by the strain of war, now looks to it's
allies TO take up its share Of the burden.
Now they have concentrated an enormous
army which they have thrown against the
unprepared Italians with the obvious intent
OF crushing that power and putting it out
of the equation. If these two projects could
he realized through the complete paralysis
of Russia and Italy. Germany and Austria
might then mobilize the best they have
against their enemies in France and General
Sarraii's divisions in Greece and Macedonia
Meantime such successes would vastly
hcartcn the German and Austrian peoples
now suffering fearfully from pestilence
famine and bercavements
This program has progressed favorably for
the central powers far. Russia admits
that it is badly bruised and beaten. Now
Italy has been thrown upon It's back and Is
being tramp!cd upon. General Cadorna has
been unable TO make stand against the
vastly superior forces against him, and the
invaders arc pressing him back mile by mile
These facts undoubtedly are serious, but they
do not spell disaster. Italy once before was
in the same position that which it oc-
cupics to-day. 1t was confronted by superior
forces and was driven to fight upon its own
territory. But it recovered, and when its
armies were munitioned and properly sun
piled. they executed rccoil that swept the
Austrians across the Alps and threatened the
capture OF Trieste itself. 1t accomplished
this without material assistance from its al
lies. The allies are rushing assistance to
Cadorna Men and materials are sent as
swiftly as transportation facilities will per-
nit, and Emperor Charles soon will find
himself face to face with veteran forces from
the trenches in France. He may hold line
thrown across tho Italian frontier during the
winter but few strategists believe that he
can penetrate far into Italy.
1T is difficult to calculate upon Russia but
the allied governments rest in the hone that
with the winters truce on the eastern front
Russia will be given the opportunity most
needed to rchabiitate itself and nut it's army
