"Of course, all kinds of reports come

believe there is even vet a cleavage be-

until that point is reached Germany
can and will resist. Let us be prepared
for it and, instead of expecting improb-
able events within a. few weeks or
months. set our pegs at one year from
this date. We can finish the war on
the right terms then If we drive at 100

of steady gait. but a question OF supreme

have been able to reduce their losses,
