ALLIES MORE READY.

While a month would not afford time
enough to build up much of an army
when the conditions were not entirely
ripe for the effort, month nevertheless
will go far toward whipping an army
into shape when there is an emergency
call for an extra force of soldiers. Ii
has been a month, practically, since the
tremendous drive of the Germans in
western Europe was held up by the con.
certed efforts of the British, the French
and, in part, the Americans. That month
has gone by without determined move
on the part OF the German general staff
to make good their program of splitting
up the allies and capturing the channel
ports. That month has given time
enough to shift a considerable number of
Italian soldiers from the Italian front to
the line in France. for the United States
to add many thousands to its increasing
army, for Great Britain to send across
the channel more of its home army, for
France to gather in all the electives of
that nation. Therefore, while Germany
has undoubtedly been engaged fsverishly
in bringing up all the reiuforcements it
can muster, the allies have not been idle
in modelling their own fighting strength.
And it is not likely that General Foch
has been quiescent while those troops
were being assimilsted into his command
There may not be the vast army Of
about which so much has
been said during the past two months,
but IL does seem probable that a sizesble
reserve force has been put through the
forms Of training hack Of the lines which
will ~ the force for powerful service
When the time comes 10 hiring Il into 1
operation. The allies seem. therefore. to
BE- in better shape TO meet the German
lurush this time than they were on March
n. especially since the element Of sur
rise has been largely eliminated from /
ne possibilities Of the usw German at
ack
