WASHINGTON. Feb. 23--In the
present world war, with its clash Of
peoples on half score Of fronts, it is
somewhat difficult for the public to fol-
low the various phases and realize
their relative importance. Military
tactics and strategy have often become
divorced from policy, with the result
that the coordination Of the effort suf-
fers and the war, instead of beng
waged by the Allies as whole. has
been split up into a series of water
tight compartments, each Of which is
regarded by those fighting in it as the
crucial one for the decision of the
campaign.
An example Of this is the Salonica
front. The Army Of the Orient has
been the stcpchild Of the Allies, as far
as treatment goes. This front is, in
certain quarters, regarded as one of
merely secondary Importance. The
army is considered to have the mission
of holding the line from Monastir to
the Egean, SO as to exercise pressure
nn the German, Austrian, Bulgarian
and Turkish forces defending it, i'm
mobilize them and prevent their utiliza-
ton elsewhere
This, l believe, is a completely false
conception Of the mission Of the Army
Of the Orient. The Salonica front is
not one Of secondary Importance; it
is front of capital Importance. | an
not expressing q merely personal opin-
ion. During the last eighteen months
which I have spent with the headquar-
tcrs' staff of the Serbian army I have
had continual opportunity Of discuss
ing the Importance Of the whole Bal
kan front, and in the last ten months
of discussing the Importance of tho
mission of the Army of the Orient
with officers Of the highest rank.
have found the officers of the Serbian
headquarters staff unanimous in thei1
opinion as to the Importance of the
operations in Macedonia.
Germany Enriched
By Turkish Spoil
In their opinion, the objective Of tho
Army Of the Orient is the cutting OF
the n.Constantinople Railway. II
is notorious that Germany draws i'm
mense resources from Asia Minor anc
that Bulgaria and Serbia are also laie
under contributions. A swarm of Ger
man officials has been sent down te
these countries; they have been cut ur
into sections like chessboard, ant
they are being swept clean of every
thing that can be made use of. Al
day long trains filled with food are
rolling up to Germany from Constan
tinople, while the trains travelling
from Germany to Constantinople ar
filled with munitions, without which
the resistance of Turkey to the British
and Russian armies would at once col
lapse.
There is not the slightest doub
that the cutting of the railway woult
bring about the immediate collapse o,
Turkey. This would mean the reopen
ing Of the Dardanellcs, and would Sc,
free the British armies in Egypt
Mesopotamia and Palestine and the
Russian army in the Caucasus fo,
| service elsewhere.

A super-feature screen classic with

Nazimova, the great Russian ac-

brilliant career by her wonderful
work in her latest screen play, "Toys
of Fate" This talented and interna-
tionally famous artist has combined
an unusually successful theaterical
season on Broadway with her latest
supreme photoplay achievements.
"The Dolls House" "Hedda Gabler,"
and other plays by the noted Scandi-
nayian dramatist Hendrick Ibsen,
comprised her repertoire of stage
plays, and Revelation" and "Toys of
Fate her pictures features. "Reve-
lation,' her first screen classic pro-

of motion pictures and was received
by noted dramatic critics and the
public as the greatest thing she had
done on stage or screen. Toys Of
Fate" surpasses even this superb
classic.

ITALIAN PATRIOT
AVENGED AT LAST
BY HENRY WOOD

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
With the Italian Armies Afield,
Sept. s. (By mail. After 50 years,
{ almost to the very day fate has seen
to it that Italian vengeance which is
long suffering but never forgetting,
has been satisfied and the martyr
dom by Austrian gendarmes of Cicer-
uacchio, an ardent Roman patriot, is
now avenged on the books of Justice
In August 1S49, following the ira
gic retreat of Garibaldi over part of
the same territory where the Italians
are again fighting Austria for com
plete national and racial freedom,
Ciceruacchio was taken prisoner
Through the initiative of an Austrian
gendarme official he was given
summary court martial and quickly
executed. A little later orders to sus-
pend the sentence came from higher
authorities
A little tablet at Porto Tolle on
the lower Pc marks the spot where
Ciceruacchio paid the penalty to Aus
trianhatred for his efforts in behalf
Of Italian freedom
His death, like that of thousands
of other Italianpatriots who have
suffered similar martyrdom at Aus
trian hands, went unayenged until
August of this year.
On the morning Of August 26, dur
ing raid by Austrian airplanes, on
towns back of the Italian front, an
Austrian airplane was brought down
above Porto Tolle and fell directly
in front of the tablet commemorat-
ing the martyrdom Of Ciceruacchio
The two occupants, an Austrian av-
iation lieutenant and sergeant es-
Gaping from the machine, turned to
the tablet expecting to get an idea
Of their Whereabouts, read int, and
then turned to find themselves in
the hands Of Italian gendarmes.
