HOLDING ,EM IN CHECK.

Not alone are the Italians and
their British and French allies hold
ing in check the Austrian offensive
along the greater part of the hund-
red-mile battle front from southeast
of Trent to the Adriatic, but them
selves have turned aggressors on
some of the more important sectors,
especially in the mountain regions.
Counter attacks in the hill country
in the north at several points have
resulted in the occupation by the AL
lies of ground won from them in the
initial onslaught and the rectifica-
tion of their lines, while a stiffening
of the front along the Piave River
has made impossible for the time
being of further fording of the
stream by the enemy.
Hard fighting still is in progress,
with the Austrians bringing the
strongest kind of pressure to bear
against the Allied armies on both
northen and eastern parts of the bat
tlefield in an endeavor to reach the
lines and gain access in force to the
plains.
The strokes of the enemy are par
ticularly violent on Montello Plat

the middle reaches of the Piave, the
capture of which would give him

Austrians effected a crossing of The
Piave, only later to be driven back

fighting also is of violent charac

closer and closer to each of us-the
