OFFENSIVE DEEMED SIGNIFICANT.
ITALIAN HEADQUARTERS, Dec 3l.--'
Delayed-The chief significance Of the
French stroke Sunday is the change
from defensive TO offensive tactics, and
the stirring enthusiasm and sureness
with which the French delivered their
initial blow against the enemy lines.
Thus far the enemy has been on the Of
fensive with the Italians delivering tell
ing defensive blows.
Now, however, the French have
turned the scale and the enemy is be-
Ing attacked in this sector for the FIRST
time since he reached the Piave.
The story Of the nsht shows thor
oughness Of preparation and heroic
bravery in execution. The scene was
southeast of Monte Tonba, low
sncvless mountain region. Here the
artillery preparation began Saturday,
but the main bombardment began al
noon Sunday and increased hourly until
the enemy was deluged by the French
fire.
II was then that the crack French
infantry swung forward in steady lines
from Osteria ri Monenera ard Mara
zine, a front Of about two miles. The
heaviest forces were on the right wing
italian and British alrmen at the same
hme attacked the enemy from the air
The struggle was comparatively short
and sharp, with most Of the lshting on
the right wing. The artillery had 50
damaged the enemy positions that no
was unable to make any effective re-
slstance. The French losses were
comparativlv insignificant.
Austrian soldiers made up the entire
enemy force engaged, which Is taken TO
indicate that the German continents
are being moved further west toward
the Brenta river II also has been es-
iablished that no forces are being
moved away from this front and that
no new forces are being brought here.

THE PEACE our SOLDIERS WAN.

The Stars and Stripes. the Of
fetal newspaper published by
the soldiers Of the American
Expeditionary Forces in France,
says editorially about the enemy
peace offensive:
Let the weak hearted who
are dreaming of a compromise;
let the pacifsts who are talking
a peace by agreement; let the
sideliners who have had enough
of war; let the secretly inclined
pro-Germans who think this war
should end without a decision =
let them one and all know once
and for all that for the American
Expeditionary Force there is no
such word as Peace" with the
Huns unbeaten. The man who
talks Of peace today, except
through victory, Is a traitor. "
The enemy peace offensive is
likened to the action of Germany
mschine-gun crews in the Vesle
fighting, when they fought and
killed Americans until they were
surrounded, then shouted Kan
Grad"
The mothers of the American
soldiers in France want the same
peace their sons demand. All
the courage of the ancient Spar
tan mother is in the hearts Of
/ the women of America.
The object of the Fourth Lib
erty Loan is to bring that peace
"a just peace, a righteous peace,
an American peace.
