Modern Huns Baked By
Land and Water Defense;
Wars Strangest Fight

The modern Huns are desper-
ately trying to turn the Italian
right wing by progressing around
the northern limits of the Vene-
tian gulf.
For the purpose of the lagoon
battle, as well as for general de-
tense, the Italians inundated the
section and sealed all Adriatic en-
frances into the gulf by mine
fields. The Venetian gulf there
fore was converted into an isolat-
ed sea.
Over this inland waterway, the
conflict is raging bitterly. To fit
their purposes of defense, the
Italians have developed a ia
COON fleet" ranging from the
fleetest of the motorboats, armed
with machine guns, small cannon
and torpedo tubes, to huge, cum
bersome, flat-bottomed British
monitors, mounting the biggest of
marine guns.
Floating Batteries.
All the Italian vessels navigate
secret channels dug in the bottom
of the shallow lagoons.! Only the
Italian war pilots know these
these courses. Even gondolas
steering off the channels are in
stantly and hopelessly stranded.
Not only this, but since the
muddy flats and marshy islands
do not permit artillery emplace-
ments, the Italians have developed
an immense fleet of floating bat
teries. The guns range from
three-inch field pieces to the
great 15-inch monstrs. Each is
camouflagd to represent a tiny
island, a garden patch or a house
boat.
Floating on the glass-like sur
face of the lagoons, the guns fire
a few shots and then change po-
,itions-making 1t utterly impos-
,ible for the enemy to locate them.

BLAMES
PROBERS

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. IT.
Frankly admitting there is too
much red tape in the war govern
ment. Major General Crozier,
chief of ordnance, today again
placed the bulk Of the blame on
congress.
A hot colloquy followed in tina
senate war probe committee. with
members taking Crozier to task
for continually blaming congress
for Americas tunpreparedness.
Crozier, resuming his testi-
mony before the military affairs
committee, declared that congress
had a war department estimate
of $2,9O0,000,0O0 on April 5, the
day before war was declared.
Demanded Details.
1--WE didn't get the money until
June 49," said Crozier. This
was a lump sum estimate which
we asked authority to spend I'M
der direction of the president.
Congress demanded detailed esti-
mates. That's why a good deal
of time was lost"
Frankly now, general, there's
too much red tape, isn't there?"
Senator Hitchcock asked.
"Yes, there is" replied Gro
zier.
well, how can it be elimi-
nated?"
For one thing, congress could
have taken our word for this
lump appropriation and gotten a
detailed explanation afterwards, !"
replied Crozier.
Answer Crowder.
Senators Hitchcock and Cham
beralin forced him to admit that
when estimates are made they
must be approved by the war col
lege, then by the general staff,
and last by the secretary Of war,
before congress seees them.
This process, Crozier insisted,
is unavoidable.
you have no idea, evidently,
how intricate the ordering of ar
tillery is" he said.
whats intricate about order
ing guns?" demanded Hitchcock.
you knew you would need a
large number of guns. Why didn't
you go ahead and order them? II
a businessman's place is burned
he doesn't sit down and figure
out to the dollar what he'll need
to spend ITO replace It; he or
deres by telegraph what he knows
he'll need..'
/ Naval Probe Wednesday.
/ Senator Chamberlain said he
couldn't understand how congress
tied things up by delaying the APP
preparation until June.

WITH THE FRENCH AR
MES IN ITALY, Dec. H.
Italy is waging the war of la
goons to save Venice-the strang-
est, half-aquatic, half-water and
half land conflict the history OF
war has known.
Centuries ago Atilla and his
original Huns reached exactly the
same spot between the Pave and
the Sile rivers that the modern
Teutonic Huns have reached to-
day.
Fifteen hundred years ago, the
original Inhabitants in this Sec
ton fled from the mainland and
on the CULTS and flats of the la
goons founded the island colonies
which eventually became Venice.
Over the same intervening
canals, marshes, lagoons and
lakes by which Attila and his
Huns were checked, the Italian
forces today are checking the
modern day Huns.
They are checking the enemy
by a highly perfected land and
water defense which, when the
conflict is over, will form one OF
the most interesting chapters OF
the whole history of the war.
Naval Lagoon Battle.
Since November 10, on which
the Austrians, in crossing the
lower Piave in their headlong
rush to Venice were suddenly
checked by the Italian lagoon
defenses, the entire gulf of Ven
ice, with its endless canals and
marshes, with islands disappear
ing and reappearing with the tide,
has been the scene of a continu-
Gus naval lagoon battle.
1t was still progressing today.
The fighting is absolutely without
precedent.
