when the amendment passes the Senate,

AUSTRIA'S ARMIES
CONTINUED from page !

while ut the extreme eastern sector of

CoarIe.
Scenes Of dcsolation are being encounte-
red by the Allied troops advancing through
Venetia.
Dwellings have been wrecked in the
storm of shells poured upon the country
Window sashes and doors have been car
ricd away and used for frewood by the
Austrians. The uncultivated fields are

Az the Allied troops move ahead they
see that they have n great opportunity
to throw the enemy IN disastrous retreat

numerically superior Austrian forces might
by counter offensive endanger the Allied
cause.
