complete German victory on the West front

"The New York Evening Post" in
dorses the opinion held in Germany that
the permanent value Of the new ar
rangement for Germany herself "de-
pends on the outcome of the war in the
West" while "The New York Sun"
says:
For two centuries Prussia has treated
Austria with scarcely disguised hostility
and for years she secretly connived for her
dismemberment. Berlin has merely taken
advantage of the conditions of war to carry
out long-formulated plans for the reduc-
tion of a helpless ally and the aggrandize-
ment of the German power"
"The Boston Evening TRANSCRIPT"
sees in the event breakdown of char
acter on the part of the young Emperor
Charles, and writes:
"The world had great hopes of him when
he mounted the throne. But toward his
friends, as we'll as toward his enemies. he
baa proved himself traitor and coward

"The Chicago Evening Post" writes
in similar vein:
"Panic-stricken by the conditions within
her borders, Austria Hungary has sold her
self to Germany The last vestige of her
independence is passing in the conferences
of the two kaisers"
1t is generally agreed that Austria
will come out of the war with greatly
diminished prestige, whatever the gen.
eral outcome may be. "The New Re-
public" writes:
Even the dullest witted Austro- Hunga-
ran statesman must now realize that un-
less peace comes soon, whoever wins this
war, the old Dual Empire must lose. After
two or three more years of fighting an AL
lied victory could not possibly leave condi-
tlons in Austria Hungary as they were be-
tore the war. The nationality movement
has gained such momentum in the last four
years that it is even now doubtful whether
the rule of the Germans and Magyars can
be maintained except through the interven-
tion of foreign powers; and no foreign
power will intervene to save them if the
Allies win. Either the empire will fall to
pieces a scheme Of federalism will have

"The Transcript" is certain that out
of the wreckage of the war Germany is
sure to emerge with the power of over
lordship over German and Czechish Aus
tria.
The event denotes the formal inaugu-
Yation of the "Mitteleuropa" plan, ac-
cording to the views of a number of
editors. Thus "The Kansas City Tines
thinks that Austria "has become mere
appendage of Germany, one of the
states in it's Mitteleuropa, a pier of the
bridge to carry Germany to Constanti-

Beer May Be as Thin as
Possible!"

THE thinning down of German beer
has now gone so far, under the
great scarcity of barley and hops, that
efforts are making to fix a boundary line
between what may and what may not
be sold as beer. The matter was at
length brought before the War Food
Board in the form of question whether
a drink consisting of less than per
cent malt and hops should be still entitled
to the name "beer." The board replied
that the brewing law fixed no minimum
limit, and that the necessity for "stretch-
ing" beer as far as possible had caused
to be rejected all petitions for establish
Ing by law a minimum limit. Hence the

Middle Europe on these lines would mean
the continued vassalage of all the Slav

divided like the present Slav races of Aus

"The Cincinnati Commercial Trib-

"Thus does the Kaiser by the simple
process of self-determination decide the
status of one more large and important
political division in working out the reali-
