Two Huge Military
Possibilities Are
Being Considered

WASHINGTON, July H. lBy
the United Press)-Two huge milf
.ary possibilities are under grave
consideration here at present. First,
some government authorities are urg
ing a new smash at Austria from the
Hungarian back door, via Italy; Sec
md, the gogerpmen t leaders are
keeping watchful eye on the chance
of naval engagement of great mag
nitude as a result Of Germany's in
creased strength, caused by the seiz-
ure of the Russian naval units ana
probably the construction Of new yes
sells of her own. The first plan has
backing. The second,
that the naval engagement is cloud-
ed by uncertainties for lack of def
mite data.

Each issue discusses some subject of vital import in the pres ent world crisis. This subject is treated in such way in each of the three sections that it may be un- derstood by the pupils in the grades in which the special section is de- signed for use.
 Copies of the lesson leaflets al ready issued, sufficient in number for the use Of each school in the
