to military data. She moved practical
ly all she desired before the Brest
Litovsk conference but she now finds 1t
necessary to draw more from the east.
Realization of Germany's trickery In
the east is actuating Trotsky's latest
effort to rehabilitate the army, ac-
cording to general government opinion.
And military men point out that
though efforts can meet with only
partial success at present, a revolution
now would be at least worrisome to
the harrassed German, busy with the
western line.
The Siberian problem has dwindled
out of sight since the west struggle
started, particularly in view of the
Japanese declaration that no imme-
diate Intervention is planned. Wis
count Ishii, the new Japanese ambas-
sador. will assume his post here next
month and it is assumed he will take
early opportunity to discuss a far east
ern policy with the president.

The alliod withdrawal was based,
he said, upon complete familiarity
with every step Of the German prep
aration for the offensive.
II knew the British plans in gen.
eral way before l left France" he
added
He told how 1t is possible to locate
enemy artillery by stationing observ-
ers who listen for the sound Of guns.
Six Of these listeners report, and
their reports are combined with the
result that an aerial observer Is en-
abled to fly over a certain position
and verify the fact that gun or bat
terry is located there.
Then, it is easy to force the en-
envy to move his guns" said General
Bell.
"In spite Of lavish fire on these
positions, the guns themselves are
seldom destroyed.
Il can assure you that General
Pershing has established schools and
is taking advantage of all the latest
scientific methods of combating the
enemy"
General Bell gave interesting In
