Senator Borah, we are sure, win
earn ere long that the final word
of President Wilson. as given on the
'openness" Of treaties. will be con-
elusive with the Senate. We admire
the Idahoan's persistency, but are
rather skeptical as to his judgment
in this.

Mr.. Bryan is one man among pos

Wonder what an anti-talk reso.

front between Montdidier and Noyon.
This time he was ready. and the
Germans were held to a five-mile ad-

Hindenburg is now concentrating his
forces for a fifth attack somewhere
along the front from Ypres to Yer

II the straetgy of the last three
months is followed, the foe will
strike at point which has not felt
the shock of battle this year In this
event the front between Rheims and
Verdun Is the most likely.
On this front, near Chalons-sur-
Marine, American troops are in the
line. unless they have been removed
by Gen. Foch to reinforce some other
part Of the front.
The possibility also exists of ar
attack on the American line to the
east of this front. anywhere between
st. Mihiel and Luneville. German
troops have been concentrated be-
hind this line, and Gen. Pershing has
been preparing to meet an offensive

erry, forcing the French back on the
Disc, where the fighting of the last
week took place. To do this he must
take from the allies a strip of terri
tory 80 miles wide at its base and
IL miles deep at its deepest point.
So far the Disc drive has penetrated
the allied line to only a fraction of
this extent, leaving the German line
open to fanking attacks from two
sides.
The second requirement OF this
battle for Paris is for the Germans
to return to the battle at Amiens
and Arras. break the British line
and roll Gen. Haig's army back into
Belgium.
One OF Three Points.
Thus we expect the next blow at
one of three points:
l. Between Rheims and Verdun.
.. Between Montdidier and Chateau
Thierry.
3. Between Amiens and Arras.
The fifth phase will be no more
decisive than were the first four
It will be followed by a series OF
