The war analyst best known to
American readers and in whom they
repost most confidence. is Frank III.
Simonds. In Review of Reviews for
March Mr.. Simonds says:
The German military party, which
is in practically undisputed control,
means to attempt one more offensive,
the most gigantic of all and the great
est military gamble since Napoleon
went to Moscow. If it should succeed
then there will be a campaign of 1919
and perhaps OF 1920. Any German vic
tory. large or small, this spring and
summer would mean a prolongation Of
the war, because it would mean an ex-
tension of the time in which the Ger
man military party would remain in
control of Germany.
IT America should now lessen her
preparations. slow down her effort. any
German victory this year might be ex-
banded next year into final triumph.
We are the last reserve of the Allies
and of civilization. We must be ready
when the hour comes and the hour may
come. Ii we slacken our pace even a
German defeat this year may not prove
the end Of the war, but it seems to me,
save for the possibility of a consider
able success by the Germans in the
next campaign or failure on our part
to do all that We can possibly do, the
coming campaign will be the las,.
And see no reason to believe thar

Peace Near or Far?

A State official inquiries: Can you
see any hope of an early peace"
Only that we have had in view rol
eight months: That the people Of Aus.
tria. from Emperor down. are con.
WINGED that the central powers Car
never WIN: to which has more recent
ly been added the growing conviction
that ii they DO win, Austria will &c,
little or nothing in return for hel
and for the world hatred that Is bound
to last for generations.
To win, the central powers must in
flict decisive defeat upon Britain
France and America. The raids upor
the well-nigh defenceless peoples OF
Rumania, Poland. on to Petrograd 0,
elsewhere, to the east or north, are
mere pot boilers by the war masters
for German and Austrian hope and
support The cowardly trickery tina,
cost Italy SO dear has not a semblance
of victory for the Teuton forces: i,
was a revelation to the world of weak
ness and desperation on the part Of the
central allies
The masses Of the central power.
from which the blood is drawn in
rivers, have been led to expect a tri
umphant climax on the western front
this spring. 1t was to have been
pulled off, before this, instead have
been the grand stand plays in Russia
settlements and peace" treaties no,
worth the paper they are written on
should a gigantic Teuton drive on the
western front fail
The entente allies have given the wal
lords the laboring oar on that very
same hluff-a stalking of all on a ter.
rife offensive in the spring of 1918
The allies accept the pretense and say
come on: we are ready for you
Perhaps in no other manner can the
truth be brought home so quickly to
the German and Austrian masses, as a
failure of the greatest force the leu
tons can bring to bear on the line from,
Switzerland to the channel Not a
single victory has come to the Teuton
arms on that line in many months
Hence failure of this long advertised
offensive must end all hope OF victory.
Then will Austria go on. in the ex-
pectancy of sharing anything that the
German war masters may save to the
east and north in peace negotiations?
