YANKs ADVANCE SLIGHTLY

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, Aug. 30, 8 p. m., (By the As sociated Press.) - While the French troops on the right and left of the Americans on the front north of Sois- sons struggled forward today the Americans sent thousands of rounds of high explosive shells and shrapnel into the German positions, they made little effort to advance their line.
 Late this afternoon some progress was made by the Americans in the re- zion of Juvigny.
 Although the day was not marked by any spectacular advance, there was far from a lull in the activities on the American front

Bolshevik leaders as paid German propa-

DESPITE the generally pessimistic
view of Russia held by the Ameri-
can press, there is strong current of
opinion running that the Russian situation
is not so bad for the Allies as is generally
painted. Many commentators cite Napo-
Icons advance into Russia as parallel to
what is going to strike the Germans Then,
too, it will be no easy task to police 1870, 000,-
900 people, even if the German people con-
sent to prolong the war in behalf of the
militarists. Indeed, Mr.. Frank H. Simonds
goes so far as to predict that Germany can
never dominate Russia any more than Ma
poleon, who overran Spain.
Moreover, then, too, Germans know that
Germany cannot live with the Revolution
they must destroy it or have their auto
cratic institutions destroyed. That means
years of war, if only of the guerilla sort.

Scandinavian Troubles

THE seizure of the Aland Islands.

STA, naturally is threat to the security
Of Sweden. Germany's plan apparently
is to make the Alands another Helgoland,
dominating the East Baltic and the Cults
of Bothnia and Finland.
In connection with these developments
a sudden burst of German newspaper at
tacks on Denmark and Norway is inter
preted as part of scheme to bully the
Scandinavians. Denmark is abused for
having informed the Spanish steamer
1gotz Mendi, recently stranded off the
Danish coast with German prize crew
and all the booty Of the sea raider Wolf
At the same time Norway is taken to task
because OF commercial treaties made with
the United States curtailing exports to

A New Peace Drive

T INDEED, many critics insist that Ger
= many is consolidating her position
rapidly in the East so as to make a new
peace drive in the early future. For one
thing, why is the great German drive in
the West being delayed? Because Germany
wants to make "barter" peace, trading off
concessions in the West for a free hand
in the East. News dispatches from neu-
trail sources also say another peace offer is
coming Germany knows she cannot as
eral peace is made. She thinks there is an
element among the Allies who would make
peace at Russias expense, as is indicated
by German interest in the Lansdowne
letters.
Then, too, Germany feels that if her
new offer is refused she can again stifle
internal unrest by blaming the Allies for
continuing the war. Finally, it is recalled
that following every other easy success in
the past Germany has invariably launched
peace offensive before renewing offensive
warfare. Besides, what will the war profit
Germany so long as her colonies are gone
and her markets in Allied countries de-
stroyed, while every historical parallel in
dicates that ultimately Russia will achieve
her freedom?

and allies. Indeed, he had already ar
rived. After voyage enlivened by one
submarine alarm, Mr.. Baker landed
March 10, from an American armoree
cruiser, which helped convoy 10000
troops, most of whom were aboard for.
mer German liner.
Upon his arrival in Paris the Secretary
promptly explained. the purpose of his
mission to France. ~'It is" he told Eng.
lish and French newspapermen, "to visit
the American expeditionary force and in
spect its lines Of transportation and its
storage and supply systems, in order that
we in America can more effectively sup
port our own army and the armies of our
Allies" Washington also laid emphasis
upon the fact that Mr.. Bakers trip is
military, and not diplomatic"
1t has been known for several months
that Mr.. Baker had been eager to 20 ia
the front and to discuss with General
Pershing many problems that have arisen
to impede the carrying out of the depart
ment's plans. According to correspond
ence revealed at Washington between the
President and Mr. Baker, the earnest
solicitations of General Pershinp also
greatly influenced the Secretary to make
the trip.
Mr.. Bakers going to France has served
to recall the fact that he is not the first

OF many commentators. He wants Russia
to fight, believing the peace made at Brest-
Litovsk fatal to Russia. Indeed, accord
ing to "The Worlds Work" cit will hardly
do to think of Trotzky's rise to power and
fame as an accident in the career of an
adventurous humbug, or as a topsy-turvy
romance of the Arabian Nights sort.
"Trotzky's writings, now appearing, though
hastily penned, show him to be man of in
tellectual power and of unusual clearness and
strength of conviction. The kind of diplo-
macy that he has exposed is far more dam
gerous humbug than is the utterly impracti
cable brand of anarchistlc socialism that he
processes. Trotzkys day of power will be
brief, but his name is written large on the
page of history"

THAT this dream has long been openly
1 admitted by Germany is the recur-
rent theme of different writer's. What is
happening to the Baltic provinces was
sketched by German writer three years
ago. "The Independent" cites an article
from its issue of February %, 1915, by
Professor Wilhelm OSWALD, of Leipsic
University, on What the War Will Bring
Forth" He predicted that in making
peace Germany would make it her aim to
free and unite the small nations inhabit-
ing the western fringe Of Russia, from Fin
land to the Black Sea, forming a confed-
Grafton similar to that of the German EN-
pire, and dominated, of course, by Ger
many. The past week has seen great
strides toward this end
Again, Andre Cheradame, writing in
the March issue of "The Atlantic
Monthly" shows how the Pan-Germans
have just completed the second of three
stages in their progress toward German
world domination, as planned from 1895
to 1911. The first phase, quick victory by
arms, lasted from Augusta to October.
1914, and received setback Immediately
the second set in, lasting until December,
1917. In that time Germany accomplished
Central Pan-Germany. Now she is enter
ing upon the third and last phase of her
schemes, a trial for a war of movement
likely to bring about the final decision Of
the war.
