RESULT IS IN DOUBT

ROME, Nov. 20.-The Teuton fore es are hurting a strong massed at tack against the Italians northwest of Venice between the upper reach es of the Piave and Brentna rivers, and on the outcome of this battle, apparently, rests the fate of Venice.
 Owing to the terrible punishment inflicted by the Italians in slaughter ing the Austro-Germans on the lower Piave river, and the failure of the latter to find a Iodgment on the west bank there, they have crossed the Piave river above the plains near the Asiago Plateau, in the hopes, no doubt of fanking the
 Italian forces and descending di- rect to Venice across the plains be- tween the Brenta and Piave rivers.
 The Italians are desperately resist ing the advance of the Teutons, re- ~iyino upon receiving reinfonceHnesfs

WHY SOLDIERS CANNOT
SPEND XMAS AT HOME

Washington, Dec. 17.-Relicf of the
ralll Dads of the great burden of
transporting thousands of soldiers
from the cantonmcnts to their homes
and back for Christmas, is of such
urgent necessity that the war depart
ment today sent out an official ex-
planation why the leaves of absence
should be curtailed wherever possible.
The official reasons are:
If many leaves of absence were
permitted during the holiday season
the very considerable expense involv-
ed for large proportion of the men
would create an invidious distinction
between those who could make such
journey and those who would be
compelled to remain at the camps.
2-Thc intensive period of training
might be sci iously affected by the
absence of many men.
3-The chief reason is that the
transportationa facilities of the coun-
try are taxed to their utmost for
weeks in bringing to the mobilization
points the hundreds of thousands Of
men now there, and in making the
necessary transfers of men and ma
terials between these points. TO add
the burden Of carrying great numbers
of these men to their homes and from
their homes back again to the camps
would be a burden nearly insupport-
able.
There have been no orders issued
against leaves, bue every camp COM
mandcr has been urged to discourage
any unusual number of furoughs
during the holiday time.
