TRIBUTE TO FRENCH STRATEGY

Correspondent Simonds' S copyright
war review of this week is one of the
.,blest of the year He calls atten-.
ton to the bewildering and almost
unfathomable revelation of French
strategy as compared with German. -
He says the allies campaign of last
week was the best yet. Marshal
Foch s strategy based on a series of
blows at the north, south and in the
center comes with swift precision. His
summary is admirable.
"The thing | would say to my read
ars now is just this: Things have gone
better than any one could have fore
seen and most of us hoped this year.
| believe that there is very good
chance that the German will be driven
to the frontier before the winter. but |
think this is a matter of conjecture.
On the other hand, it is possible that
he will be able to rally and stand off
attack until the end of the campaign.
But whatever he does now in the re
naming weeks of this campaign, his
complete defeat next year seems to me
beyond question. / believe a military
decision will be had in the next cam
paign when American millions are
available and these are used with the
supreme genius Of Marshal Foch.
"The one peril, it seems to me, il
that the happy turn of the tide may
lead us to expect too much this year
and thus give the German valuable
weapon when he comes to us as he viii
this winter and says:
Neither side can win the war OIL
the battlefield. / tried and failed las
year and then you tried and failed
therefore let us make peace by nego
tiations, We may win the war OF
the battlefield this year; there is
chance, but only a chance. But this i
not our year to win, but his. He ha
had his chance and failed our chance
can only come surely next year Gu
problem this year was to live and il
the last five weeks we have won,
second Marine, a third and even
fourth Somme, taking 10000 prisoner
and regained 1900 square miles o
France, while little earlier our Ital
ian ally won the Piave.
"If we are stopped for the rest o
the year at the Hindenburg line W
shall be better off than any REASONABLE
man could have hoped, for last Mare
and we shall have every reason in tn
world for believing that before thi
time next year we shall have demon
strated that the German is to be dc
cisively beaten on the battlefield in tn
campaign of 1872

The Vermont Casualty List.
lBarre Times.

1t is to be expected that some duly
constituted official of the state of Yer
mont is taking charge of the catalog
ing of the list of Vermont men killed in
action or who have died from some
other cause while in the service of the
nation. 1t goes without saying that Yer
mont should keep an official list of the
men who give up their lives in the
course of the war. Vermont owes it to
the men and their families, as well as
to itself, to prepare an accurate list of
all men who die in the service. Such q
list should be given place of honor in
the state house at Montpelier, where il
can be inspected in the years to come
The compilation of such list could be
done, of course, from the records of the
war department at some time after the
completion of the war; but it would be
more satisfactory, and perhaps it would
be more complete, for Vermont officially
to maintain record from day to day OF
from week to week and then to compare
it with the records maintained in Wash
ington, so that there would be no oInis
sion of names.
