Gus region in the north between the
Piave and Brenta rivers is nearing it's
elimination. 1t centers at Monte
Grappa and has become a struggle of
giants.
1t is now clear that Notwithstanding
the great numbers of troops employed
by the enemy and his advantage of
terrain, he is able to advance only
very slowly, now that he is not be-
ing assisted by the element of sur
prise. by treason and other circum-
stances which favored him at first.
Even If the Italians should be obliged
to abandon the Piave river line, they
may be expected to fall back more
slowly and offer still more tenacious
opposition.

British Army Headquarters in
France, Nov. 21.-(8y the associated
press).-The present battle more than
any other in the western theater has
taken on the SAVIOR of fighting in
other wars when men struggled in the
open and cavalry made thrilling
charges against enemy guns. Many
military critics have long contended
that cavalry was a thing of the past,
but the mounted men have refuted
this claim.
Field Marshal Hais has clune to his
horse troops throughout the weary
months of trench fighting. He be-
iieved that some day he would have a
chance to use them and his judgment
has been vindicatd.
Field Marshal Haig's blow against
the Cambria front represents true
strategy. He Had hammered at the
enemy in Flanders until they were

British troops are pushing on
Cambrai and the main links in

only three miles away. In two
days the British have gained al
most as much ground as in the
first four months of the battle
of the Somme.
At it was unlike any previous opera

success of General Byng's smash.
Without artillery preparation and with
only tanks to cut the wire entangle-
ments, British infantry tore such
holes in the German defenses that
British cavalry is now taking part in
the drive toward Cambrai and the
Belgian border beyond.

While the British attacked on
