 Italy Resumes Offensive
 This Russian operation broadened by mid-July, so that it extended from the Gulf of Riga to the Rumanian front "a distance of 800 miles. The Ger mans were reported to be rushing troops from the Italian and French fronts. Widespread enthusiasm was created throughout Russia and the moral effect on the other entente powers was tremendous.
 Italy, declaring war against Ger. many on August 2S, began a more viz orous prosecution of her earlier offea- sive against Austria.
 With dramatic swiftness the third army, under the Duke of Aosta. storm- ed and captured Gorizia, hitherto con sidered impregndble. By January l the Italians had captured 1900 sqIale miles.
 After a winter of artillery duels, Italy resumed her offensive on the Carso front in the campaign toward Trieste. Within month the Austrian lines were broken from Castagnavizza to the sea. Italy inflicted losses oi S5,00O on the Austrians and lost heav- fly herself. Austria hurried reinforce ments from the Russian front.
 In the Trentino the Italians took the offensive in June and after terrific fighting captured the Austrian posi- tions on Monte ortigara and Agnello pass. These they were forced to relin- quish, however, in the face of Austrian counter attacks.

Germans were still unwilling to con cede failure in the operations center ing on Verdun. After August 3, 1916 the French gained the ascendancy, cul minating in the retaking of Douau Thiaumont and Fort Vaux, with thous ands of prisoners and many guns. By November the French had once more come into possession of the complete circle Of the Verdun defences.
 The second phase dates back to the commencement of the Franco-British offensive - the first battle of the Somme-in July of 1916. By mid September this had reached such pro portions that the Germans were cred tied with bringing up seven new divl. sions against the British and i've against the French. It was estimated that 3S German divisions, or, based or the strength of those German units al that period, about 760,000 men, oppos- ed the British and French on this % mile front. In this battle the British air supremacy became dominant. By November the British and French hal taken St. Pierre-Divion, Beaumont Hamel and Beaucourt and had psne trated German positions for depth 0, six miles.
 In the spring the Germans, antici- pating resumption of the SonIme op- erations, began what has becom- known as the "Hindenburg victorious retreat" to newly-established German lines. In this second battle Of the Somme, Bapaume, Irles, Peronne, Nesle. Fayette, Gricourt, Vaux, Rove. Tergnier, Ham and hundreds of other positions were lost by the Germans.
