How They View
American Efforts

1.-The United States will bring a con-
siderable accretion Of men to the West,
but this accretion will be brought neither
in time nor in sufficient numbers to affect
the issue.
"The quarrel Of the poor against the
rich within each Of the Western states,
the differing religions and national ira
ditions of EACH the inevitable misur-
derstandings which will arise between
them in the last period Of strain will do
their work and we shall be victorious in
this sense, at the very least, that we
shall retain all we have occupied. We
shall emerge stronger comparatively,
than when we challenged civilization in
Europe three and a half years ago"
Such | believe to be the general atti-
tude directing the German minds at this
moment under Prussian influence and un-
der the recent great relief which it de-
rived through the breakup Of the Russian
Empire and the tremendous victory on the
Italian front last October.
What will be the corresponding atti-
tude-if one could make sort of COM
positc photograph Of them--of the direct
ing minds in AUSTRIA Hungary? l thinl,
it will be somewhat as follows:
Our state is essentially Il adal state,
standing on the two pillars of Magyar
ascendancy in the East and the ascen-
dancy of the German race in the West
Both combined are minority. They are
together only eighteen or nineteen mill
ions in total population of over fifty
millions. But so long as they agree they
are masters. The Rumanians, Slavs. a
few Mahometans and considerable
Jewish populations which are subject to
these central masters can be kept sub
ject to them, but only on certain terms.
We have had to be very careful, even in
times Of peace, to accommodate and bal.
ance the various races which support
the throne Of Hapsburg-Lorraine.
War has put upon us a very much
worse strain than upon eur North Ger
man allies and hackers. We have lost
something like four times as many men
in prisoners; population for population,
we have had more deaths. The absence
of large towns and poorer communica-
tions have made central control more
difficult and have inflicted upon us a
strain of famine and disease worse than
that in any belligerent country
owe do net agree with eur German
allies that mere tenacity, indefinitely
prolonged, will carry US through. But
wc dc think that if we harp on the idea

Choking Of the
Attacks On Britain

The bombardment OF the airdromes be-
hind the Belgian coast has for it's prin-
cipal object interference with the German
air raids on London and on other points
or the coast OF Southern England. The
craft used by the Germans for these raids
over the sea start their expeditions from
very large concentration points, where
taey are stabbed. These are not numerous
and are thoroughly known to the British.
The perpetual harassing of them by bomb
dropping interrupts, though it cannot as
yet put a complete end to, the air offensive
against the civilian centres of Britain. It
is really, although civilian imaginations
are slow to seize that fact, much the best
defence that London has against attack
from the air
Mannheim and Ludwigshaven, apart
from the great manufactures of war ma
terial which are located there, form a
point of great Importance for two rea-
sons. The first is that one of the chief

Rendering Poland
All But Powerless

The Prussian policy is not to annex
more of Poland than has already been
annexed by the shameless partitions Of
the past. That would give more trouble
than it would be worth, for, as every ex-
ample proves all over Europe, the at
tempt of one white civilized nation to
govern even small part of another white
civilized nation against it's will is a diff
ticult, dangerous and exceedingly expen-
sive operation. But if what is left of
Poland can be surrounded by diverse
states, each containing scattered and weak
Polish minorities and each with a policy
founded on opposition to the Polish claims
for the reuniting Of the subjugated peo-
pies into single nation, the Prussian OBJ
ject would be achieved. That is exactly
what is being done. The largely artificial
demic term only recently come into use
and Lithuania are to have their frontiers
drawn with the express purpose Of limit
ing the poor remnant of Poland.
But apart from this policy Of dismem-
bering and bleeding the Polish nation
the one force she fears in the east
Prussia proposes to create other imper-
feet and artificial states full Of the seeds
of division among themselves
In the Courland she will reply upon the
German minority of rich men in towns
and the rich land owners outside.
In Lithuania she will depend upon the
hitherto not very accentuated divergence
between Polish landlords and Lithuanian
peasantry, with the organization of the
Catholic Church flattered as much as is
possible by the conqueror.
But from Lthuania she will take Lii
vonia and make something separate of it,
small as it is, to keep up general friction.
In Esthonia she will work just the
other way, and there she will depend upon
the Protestant religion of the small popu-
lation of half million which it contains
to remain pitted against the Catholic
populations of the southern neighbours
Rumania she intends to keep as it is
now, divided in half with more than three
million Rumanians subject to Magyar
rule, but she will add to Rumania Bes-
saraba as source of friction against the
Ukraine, in SO far as this last state can
be said to have any real national feeling.
