own protection.
In support of this theory, Con-
stable Thorne here s9iI that last Fri
day probably a short time before
Mrs. de Saulles sent her son to go
to his father, that he had called on
the telephone and told of an attempt
to rob Mrs. de Saulles' garage. Mrs.
de Saulles' attorney said the revolver
was not a new one, but a relic of her
honeymoon and had been given by
her former husband who had taught
her to use it. Mrs. de Saulles' devo-
ton to her son was the subject of
comment, according to the Rev. DR.
George VI. brewer, pastor of the
Trinity Episcopal church at Roslyn.
He said he did not remember ever
seeing her unless she was accom-
panied by her son.
Others, like DR.. Brewer, who live
near the home of Mrs. de Saulles
were quoted as saying she lived only
for her child, spent all her waking
hours playing with him or telling him
stories while seated in the arbors on
the grounds of her country home.

of a halfmOon.
This is exactly what the Teutons
have done When the outwork in
France and Belgium was threatened,
they built the "Hindeenburg line"
behind which they retired when the
outer wall was preached.
The problem before the allies is to
smash through a wall somewhere be-
fore the Germans have time to build
an inside wall; or else to destroy the
/ inside wall after the first has been
preached, and thus pour into the
fortress and take the defenders in
rear and flank.
But when the ancient soldiers had
built their half-moou temporary wall,
/ it was possible for the soldiers on
the old walls on either side to take
! in flank the besiegers when they
rushed in to assault the second wall.
The task of the allied and Ameri-
can troops is to push home the de-
struction of the ''bastions," or fronts
so that the main walls of the fortress
can be attacked

What faces the American army to-
day, as the great war swings into the
beginning of its fourth year?
What is the strategic and tactical
situation before the allies, and what
part can Pershing's force play in the
storming of the German citadel that
has been preached at some points,
but still remains untaken?
1t is possible to put into simple
words the military situation at this
moment.
Let us imagine the Central Power
group-Germany, Austria-Hungary,
Bulgaria and Turkey-as a great
fortress, which is besieged on all
sides.
The kaiser in the castle keep" at
Berlin-like a feudal lord of the mid
die ages-decided to grab his neigh
bors' land, and extend the walls of
his fortress to dominate them.
Instead of walls of stone, this mod
ern Teutonic fortress" has walls of
men. There are two main 'keeps'
or castles-at the ends of the fort
ress. At one end are Germany and
AustriaHungary; at the other is
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1917-08-07

Asiatic Turkey.
Between these two great keeps is a
connecting link of Notifications, TAX
ing in Bulgaria and Serbia, southern
Rumania and European Turkey.
Projecting from this great fortress,
and protecting its main walls, are
'outworks," which serve to hold off
the allied armies.
These "outwOrks" were built in the
first year of the war. 1t was the
German year, For the last two
years, allied "storming parties" have
been at work reducing an outwork
here, preaching a "bastion" or front
there, and pushing ever closer to the
main keeps.
The problem was to breach those
walls. Tactics change; strategy re-
mains immutable The ancient Egyp-
tians made their attack upon a walled
city for exactly the same strategic
object as Haig or Petain make their
attacks Hannibal, when he started
his war against Rome by capturing
Saguntum, proceeded as Pershing
will have to proceed in France. The
difference is one of tactics-not
strategy. In the days of Egypt and
Rome and Carthage the problem was

Copenhagen, June 25.-A report
sent out today by the German govern
ment for free distribution in the neu-
trail press says, despite the fact that
rain is greatly needed. the crop pros
pect in southern and western Ger
many really is brilliant. In the mid
die and eastern provinces it is thoroly
satisfactory The report would de-
serve more cerdence if Germany had
not followed the same tactics every
harvest during the war.
Thus the 1914 crops which were be-
ing harvested when the war started,
were declared for the encouragement
OF Germans and for the discourage
ment of their enemies as bountiful
and unprecedented Many months
after, the exact figures had shown the
authorities that it was merely an or
binary grain harvest

some sections justifying the declara-
ton of complete failure, was pictured

Need Rain Badly.
Last year when the Associated
Press correspondent vainly tried to
telegraph from Germany information
from farming circles that grain was
running mostly to straw, the official
propa ganda bureau announced that
ths yield of grain was exceptionally
heavy, altho agricultural statistics
showed it only rs per cent above that

Private reports received by the AS

poets for 1917 as anything but bril-
