as has been evidenced by the com
parative quiet there for the last week.
German soldiers are being rushed
by rail to the northern end of the
Austro Italian battle lines with the
purpose of restoring the Austrian
morale and not only checking the
Italian counter attack but by force
of numbers, breaking through the
mountain passes into the plains of
Venetia.
With such help as the entente arm

military supplied and food for the
army, the Italian general staff is re-
ported to be convinced that the vic
torious sweep of the Italian army
will traverse the famous >Bainsizza
plateau--the scene of the great bat
ties of last fall and will not stop
until the Italians have reclaimed all
of the country up to the right bank
of the Isonzp, which marked the ex-
treme of General Cadorna's advance.
