Defeat of Italians
Will Not Affect War
Result, Says Cecil

LONDON, Nov. 2.-Lord Robert Ce.
ell. Minister Of Blockade, In his
weekly talk with The Associated Press,
declared to-day that there was not
the least reason to suppose that the
Italian reyerses would affect the re-
suit of the war.
What has happened may affect the
duration Of the war, or II may not"
Sir Robert said. Sooner or later, the
economic side Of the war Is as likely
as anything else to produce the de-
aired effect, according to the extent
Of the resources Of the Allied powers
and the enemy to carry on an economic
offensive"
In this connection Lord Robert
pointed out the great preponderanc'
Of the Entente's resources. He added
1.-THE Central powers already are i'll ,
very precarious condition. J see moth
/ ing but great economic ruin for the
after the war, the longer it lasts"
! He declared that the Allies wer
doing, and will do, all possible TO
Italy, and would regard the battl
fronts in all the war theatres as on
comprehensive front.
What has happened only means tina
we and other governments must max
stronger exertions," he said in conclu
sion. 1--WE cannot afford to neglect an
chance. Our information is that tn
spirit of Italy is untouched, and tina
there is no sign Of disagreement o
panic at the reverse. but only
strengthening determination to fnisl
the fight"

Three Regiments Fight
Till Only One Man Is Left

ROME, Nov. describing the
events OF the Italian retreat OF Octo-
Der 27. and later, a correspondent Of
The Associated Press says General
Gonzsga was transported to Udne,
suffering from eleven wounds. All his
staff officers were killed or wounded,
and only three Of his fifty horsemen
escort remained alive. General Badog-
I lie. with his bersaglicri stood on Mata-
IjpE, the new Thermorlya of the Aus
lfatfian offensive, commanding the road
fE9m GaFpyeto to Cividale, fighting
without .hope. but also without the
idea OF surrender.
Only one lieutenant remained alive, and
/ he was wounded.
4, The correspondent, describing the
exodus Of the fugitives says they COM
prised people Of all classes auto
mobiles, in vehicles Of all epochs and
oxen-drawn carts. Some persons
transported their belongings in hand
carts, while others carried them. There
were women with half-naked children
/. in their arms, and others crying or
beating their breasts because they had
lost their children in the confusion.
There were wounded and there were
aged or sick being carried by relatives
Some Of the carts bore all the humble
furniture of household. Here and
there a donkey or mule passed, loaded
with all the kitchen utensils of the
family. The girls Of some families
carried with the greatest care their
shoes in baskets, tramping along in the
wooden clogs that are worn in these
parts. Here was TO he seen a man run

white evening slippers.
A heavy rain added to the miseries
of the refugees. Foot passengers made
quicker progress than those in motor
cars. as the latter about every ten
yards, were forced to stop for half an
hour owing to the crush. After six
long. weary hours, the bank Of refu-
gees with whom the correspondent was
proceeding, had made only six miles,
in rain and a strong, cold wind. which
chilled everyone to the marrow.

Italy's Army Ready,
!, With Allied Aid, for
Counter Offensive
Cadorna's Forces Again on
Their Feet, Preparing to
Meet Invaders

ITALIAN HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTHERN ITALY, Nov. italian
and Allied trops are preparing for a
counter offensive. A great battle based
on. the line Of the Tagliaraente River
is forecast. ..9'li;
The cavalry rear guard continues to
screen the movement Of the mar. body
of the Italian army toiss newly chosen
position and at the same time 70 cheek
the advance Of the enemy lines.
General Cadorna's bulletin last night
gives the first idea OF where. the sd-
vance Is making itself felt along tho
h,lIs connecting st. Dauiele del Friuli.
the Ledra Carai ano PoZzuolo del
Friuli. making a curved line some miles
west of the lsonzo River.
Military necessity still restricts rig
idly the sending Of details Of the oper-
alton and the mention of places, but
within these close limits some general
idea can be given of the heroic resist
ance the main part CT the italian army
gave TO the rush of overwhelming num-
bers.
Heaviest Fighting in North
The greatest shock came on the
north. where's the lsonzo first was
crossed. Here occurred the weakening
of certain attachments of the second
army which General Cadorns has bull
letined with the frankness Of a great
commander. II was this weakening
which gave the German contingents
the opportunity at critical moment
TO push forward between q portion OF
the army on the north and that on the
line further south.
Now began the double exposure of
the southern force 70 FIRE IN the front
and on the flank. which required a
steady falling back until the entire
army was in movement toward the
newly established positions further
west.
Added 10 this was the suddenness
Of the surprise blow from the north,
which developed into turning FIRE
before the southern armies and also
on their extreme flank, gradually ex-
tending TO their rear. 1t was TO ex-
tricate the troops from this situation
that the retirement began all along
the extended advanced position occu-
pied by the Italian army within Aus
trian territory.
This line stretched roughly from
Piezzo (Flitsch), far In the north.
Southeastward through Gorilla to Mon
falcone, On the Adriatic. The second
army occupied most Of the front above
Gorixis, the third army that below
Gorilla.
The retirement was accompanied By

THE Great w Ar OH u "a

ton read TO them, with emotion. Cen
eral Cadorna's stirring appeal to. the
soldiers 10 stand firm, and all joined IN
loyal shouts Of "Long live italy,"
Saturday morning the correspondent
was summoned at daybreak and in
formed that all must leave at once, as
the headquarters had been removed.
The railway was given over TO troops,
artillery and stores. Private trains and
the telegraph had been suspended.
All sorts Of vehicles and horses were
impressed for military requirements.
Throngs of persons were walking along
the roads. and the refugees, men, wom-
en- and children. were carrying the pitt
full remnants Of their household goods
salyaged in their fight before the IN
vaders.
The correspondent succeeded IL
boarding an automobile Of the last
British Red Cross unit to leave. A
final look at midnight from the top Of
the Red Gross building found that the
eastern horizon WAS ablaze with con-
| tinual explosions as the Italians blew
up nunition depots and bridges to i'm
pede the advance of the enemy and
screen their own retirement. fierce
bombardment was punctuated with star
! shells from either side while the gun
ners attempted to discover their oppo-
nents' position.
Roads Clogged for Miles
At daylight Sunday the vast traffic
Of the retiring multitude clogged the
roads for miles. The Red Cross auto
mobile party expected to make thirty
miles inside OF two hours, but 1t de-
veloped that it would take at least two
days to achieve this distance.
The withdrawal Of the heavy guns
and the munitions supplies revealed a
military genius of the highest order,
but the civilian crowds added TO the
difficulty Of he huge military removal.
A torrential rain increased the hard
ships Of the soldiers and added TO the
misery of the women and children, who
had walked seemingly endless miles
over the roads and through the fields
all night.
Sunday morning at a railway cross
ing a steady succession Of fat cars AS
sisted in the removal Of the artillery.
The monster guns were mounted on
double cars, with a covering boughs as
a screen against air raiders. The rain
was providental, as clear weather would
have permitted the enemy airplancs TO
lombard the roads and block the with
drawal
Along the line Of retreat were many
wounded being carried or litters
through the Geluge of rain. The Red
Cross car took aboard one soldier with
shell wound in his arm. Sunday
night this car made only fifteen miles.
The military occupied the entire town
and there was ofood nor lodging to
be had. The Mayor had posted a proc
lamation ordering strangers away.
Monday morning the Red Cross party
crossed the Tagliamento River, which
at this point Is about the width Of the
East River in downtown New York.

ALL OUR HOUSES D
ARE OF GLASS

BY CHARLES G. SHAW, Professor of Philosophy of New York University.
The man in the glass house Is not supposed to throw stones. If he
breaks windows in other houses, what will happen to his fragile dwelling
when the other man retaIates? At the same time, criticism is a necessary
part of human life, just as acid is an element of food or the bitter taste
an ingredient in the flavor of coffee.
But the glass house is not only fragile but transparent. You crti-
ce your neighbor and your neighbor begins to look into and through your
edifce. Judge and you will be judged. Your house of glass throws your
life open to the world. You see something awry when you peer into the
glass windows of the others house. but he sees moret that is questionable
in you.
Your glass house shields YOU from neither missiles nor criticism. 10
live in a glass house must be uncomfortable, since glass is not the proper
material to use in constructing a comfortable dwelling. No would
think of calling it a home. Light comes through the roof and floor, wall
and wall. In the glass house You have no privacy. You "a see IN all
directions, but you can be seen from all directions, too. If the glass OF
your house were adamant you would find your vtrifed dwelling uncom-
portable. 1t could be no place for the human soul. Nevertheless, whole
cities are o being built Of glass houses. The house may look a though
it were made of brick or concrete, but in reality it is a dwelling OF glass,
where no private life is possible.
No man lveth to himself alone But if it is bad to live IN secluslon,
it is not much better to live in lack of seclusiu.
The need of contemporary life is to find some new form of seduaon.
We must live together and eat together and travel together, but we may
be able to find som new way of nourshing the private inner life. This
new seclusion you must find, lest your life be all public and miscellaneous.
A mans house is his castle, a place of defense. In your glass castle you
must find the new seclusOn.
