Troops were hurried up from well In
the rear under cover OF darkness and
thrown against the allied line without
the preliminary warning OF heavy
and prolonged artillery bombardment.
The Element Of Numbers.
The second is the element Of num-
bers. Thru the collapse Of Russia the
German was able to move immense
bodies OF seasoned troops from the
eastern to the western front, much
larger bodies than any one supposed
they had available. Superiority of
numbers has enable the German to
concentrate an overwhelming attack
ing force before any part OF the allied
line he pleased without weakening any
other part OF his front to the danger
point In other words he could hold
any part OF his defenses that the al
lies might attack with one hand, hav-
ing the other free to deal q crushing
blow where he pleased.
New Developments Of Gas.
The third element is q new devel-
opmsnt OF the use Of gas. Just be-
fore each attack the allied trenches
and the country behind them for some
six or seven miles are drenched with
gas from shells. On the part OF the
line where the German expects to at
tack gas is used which is dissipated
after q few hours SO the ground will
be safe for the German troops when
they arrive. This gas puts the allied
artilIerymen out Of business for the
time being and before they can re-
cover from its effects the German in
fantry is on them. Thus the Attackers
escape the inferno OF an artillery bar
rage and are able, with their over
wheIming numbers, to pour over the
allied defenses.
Different Gas on E1anks.
On either side of the sector at
tackled the allied trenches and the ter
ritory behind them for miles Is
drenched with deadly gas that hangs
over the ground for days. thus protect
ing the attackers from being them
selves assaulted on their TANKS.
The line thus broken thru can not
be reformed for several days and by
that time the German has advanced
many miles over a wide front.
When the line ia reformed and
backed up by heavy endorsements.
the attack must halt and the enemy
must dig in until the guns and am
munitiou can be brought up and the
same tactics repeated. The element of
surprise having disappeared for the
time being, he strikes at some other

point. waiting for a more favorable
opportunity to resume the original
drive.
Allies Have Had Time to Prepare.
Il the nearly three months since
the first big blow in March, the allies
have had time to develop better
means Of protection against the gases
used. They are onto the trick and
know what to expect wher a drive
begins, and, thanks to the speeding
up of American war activities. they
have the benefit of material reinforce
mepts to help offset the numerical
superiority enjoyed by the Germans in
the early spring.
A Million Fighting Men Next Year.
By this time next year America will
have a force of something like a mil
lion fighting men, exclusive Of auxil-
larry troops, on the western front
These men will have all the equip
ment in the way of airplanes, ammu-
milton and artillery that goes with an
effective fighting force. Allied numer-
ical superiority viii be firmly estab-
lished and the summer of 1919 ought
to be the reverse Of what we have
seen this year up to. two weeks ago.
It IS possible. but hardly probable
that the Austrian attack will be fol-
lowed by an italian offensive on a
large scale. But If it should, and the
Italians should achieve any marked
success. the results would be inter-
esting in the extreme.
Results Of An Austrian Rouf.
In such an event it would not be
at all impossible that the Austrian
army might break up in q hopeless
rout and, dropping everything but
their guns and a few rounds of small
ammunition, pour in a wild mob over
the Alps toward Vienna demanding
food wherever they went.
Would Be Disaster to Germany.
An Austrian debacIe like that would
come near being disastrous to Ger
many as we'll With Austria out OF
the way, Italy could send half mil.
lion well equipped and supplied troops
to the French front ready to parttci-
pate in an Immediate offensive. If
Austria were to be kept alive as
military force it would be necessary
for Hindenberg to send an army of
several hundred thousand Of his best
troops to that country from the
French front. Thus, in either case
the result would be utterly fatal to
the German hope Of winning before
America gets in
Troubles I'm Austria.
It is perfectly safe to believe most
Of the stories OF Austrian strikes,
riots and other disorders. It is i'm
possible that 1t should be otherwise.
But don't be fooled by similar stories
out of Germany. Yau may be sure
that the German people are well sat-
isfied with the years accomplishments
SO far They are fairly well fed, and
disciplined and determined to fight to
the last Whatever you do, don't pin
your faith to any hope Of a German
revolution
