SUCCESSES

Best of all has been the wonderful

and fighting form, as evidenced in the
great Galician offensive. War Minister
Kerensky, the Russian Lloyd-George,
has accomplished the impossible, turn.
ing the revolution into a military asset
for the allies when nearly all the world
believed Il a liability The quick sue
cess Of the first drive has filled Russia
anew with the war spirit, and revived
the hope Of an early victory. The task
Of the United States is made vastly
easier.
Then there is Greece, now definitely
a member OF the allied powers, a re-
united nation with a strategic position
and military resources by no means To
from a liability to an asset. The Bal.
kans are now safe. the Central Powers
may be attacked from the southeast:
Turkey may be segregated and Serbia
won back. Bulgaria punished and Rou.
mania restored.
Brazil has joined the allies, too, not
formally, but none the less effectually.
Her fleet is added to ours TO make the
South Atlantic safe. Her army will be
added to ours II need arises. And her
influence is fulcrum swinging Latin
America powerfully to our side.
And we have won our first battle
with Germany. We might almost say
