forces. War undertakes and pre- pares this destruction by the battle, which brings about the overthrow of the adversary, disorganizes his com mand, destroys his discipline and lia- sons, and nulifies his units so far as their fighting power is concerned.
 War insures the realization of vic- tory by pursuit, in which the con- queror, exploiting the moral superior ity over the vanquished which vic- tory gives him, cuts in pieces and annihilates troops which have been demoralized and scattered, and are impossible to command; that is to say, forces which no longer exist. It is this central act of war, this method of overthrowing the enemy, with vic- tory as its object, that we must now consider, for it is a battle of this kind that is the one and only argu- ment of war, the single aim to which all strategic operations lead; and we must therefore seek to find out if such a method of overthrow practi- cally exists, and what the method is.
 Our first axiom must be that com pletely to achieve it's double object,
  erations and the successful means of tactical success, the battle must no, be purely defensive. Under the de- fensive form it is indeed possible to stop the enemy's march, to forbid him to reach an immediate objective but these results are exclusively neg ative. Never can the defensive lead to his destruction, never can il achieve the conquest of the ground he occupies, though this may be the single exterior sign of victory-hence | the defensive only cannot bring vic. | tory into being.
 | A purely defensive battle, even wei conducted, does not result in victol ] and a vanquished. It is simply { game that must be begun over again A defensive battle Is a duel in whicI one of the combatants does nothing | but parry. Nobody can believe tha- by doing that he can beat his enemy | On the contrary, despite the greates skill, he will expose himself sooner or later to be struck, he will succuml sooner or later under one of the blow! of even a weaker adversary.
 From this it is an obvious cor oIidiy thdC tHe oIeHSlNe Wnel9e started at the beginning of the actio1 or whether it follows the defensive can alone give results, and in conse quence must always be adopted, a least at the finish. Every defensiv, battle, therefore, must be terminated by an oiensive action, a victoriou counter-attack, or it will lead to nt result. An elementary notion this, i you like, but one whose absence ha l often completely obscured the tru, view of war. To maintain our posi-

we must not be deceived by ap- pearances. Although theory falls, when it is applied by feeble hands, and when the accessories obscure the main principle, or the details hide the root idea, history and reason show us that in battle there is a single argu- ment which is worth while; the de- cisive attack which is alone capable of assuring the desired result, the overthrow of the adversary. ."-Gen- eral Foch.
 From the detailed study of the use of certain arms, or of the value at- tributed to various phases in a com bat, it might possibly be imagined that a battle is a carefully studied drama, arranged like play in a the atre Cor even scene in real life), de- irving it's successful effect sometimes from the finish. and refinement of its details, sometimes from its pow erfully developed plot, sometimes from it's character drawing, some times from the interest and actual ity of the motive chosen-in other words, from varying causes.
 Another possible. conclusion might be that battle is merely kind of sham fight" on an enlarged practi- cal basis, rather like .our%Outumn ma- noeuvres, in which the commander employs methodically and successive ly the full results obtaina ble by each arm in accordance with its4s.ope and faction, thereby securing a, series of advantages which result in total, or at any rate a superiority, of success which finally constitute a victory.
 Well, a battle does not answer to either of these descriptions. So far from being the sum total of a num- Der of distinct and separate results, victory is the fruit of a series of ef- forts of which some have been suc- cessful while others are apparently valueless, but all have actually been converging\ upon one object, tending towards one Nend-the decision which alone brings victory.
 Yes, there must be a decision in - our favor, or all is lost
 So we must evidently study not only ''the decision which brings victory, but also the methods of attaining it. if we are to establish the general un- deriving principles which must in- spire the orders of the high com mand, the actions of the lesser of- ficers; thus, and thus only, shall we carry out our task and bring it to a successful issue"
