NEW YORK, March 29.-As far as
can be foreseen. the combat in the
west has definitely turned in favor of
the allies, with the Germans beginninc
TO engage in sullen defensive tactics
at important strategic points.
TIE German front is now entangled
in dangerous formations, cue to Won
Hindenburg's failure to keep his for
ward movements advancing at a com,
mon speed The precarious situation
of having outrun Germany's ability tc
provide a sufficiently large permanent
army to protect the new battle front IS

limited Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, March 29.-That
President Wilson is preparing to
drive home again the war purposes
of America to the battling allies
and do it soon-was held certain here
today.
1t is believed likely he will select
as his opportunity great Liberty
loan demonstration in Baltimore
April 6. Strong pressure is being
brought to bear ON the president to
speak at that time. At the white
house today it was stated that no
conclusion had been reached by the
president, but he has it under con-
sideration'
Such an occasion as the Baltimore
affair, would give the president pre-
cisely the back ground for setting
forth this country's determination to
fight the war to successful termin-
ation-at time when his words
would weigh unusually heavy upon
the enemies Of democracy.
There are number Of matters the
president has on his books to clear
up. There is the matter OF German
dealing with the western Russian
provinces and the great Russian peo-
pie themselves.
There is the ruthless threat of the
Austrian foreign minister - Count
Czernin-who gave Rumania the
choice of abject surrender or com
plete destruction. These chapters in
Teuton diplomacy have been closed
since last the president spoEe-hold
ing out friendly hand to Czernin
! They are chapters that this country
will not accept and the president
will let this be known clearly. Then
there is the late question of Japan
! ese intervention in Siberia. On a,
of these points, 1t is intimated, the
president has been awaiting a proper
time to speak.
