sist the Italians has heartened the rtal-
ian air force, which is much wearied
after six days of heroic work.
A trip along the entire front brought
out clearly the fact that the Aus
trian artillery craftsmanship was ex-
ceptional!y poor. The enemy's fire was
frequently slack and often virtually use
less because of the cutting of the Aus
trian telephone communications by the
Italian gunfire.
The exactitude of the Italian artil-
lery rejoinder not only had the effect Of
spoi.ing the effectiveness of the Austrian
aim, but was responsible for the heavy
losses which are known to have been
inflicted upon the attacking forces. The
Italian machine gunfire likewise pro-
dpced marked effect whenever the AUS

Italians Take Offensive; Hit on Piaue Line

Piave line. where the most determined
fighting of the present offensive is in
progress, has been won by the Italians.
Thousands of Italian and Austrian COL
diers looked on as an italian air
plane brought about the surrender of the
crew of an Austrian machine-gun float
after the Italian infantry and artillery
had failed to destroy 1t.
The Austrians brought the float up on
the swollen Piave to a point on the south
bank occupied by the Italians From
this vantage point they poured a harass-
ing fire into the Italians. 1t was i'm
possible to use light artillery to any
great extent because of the proximity of
the float to the Italian lines. Finally an
italian airrlane swooped down upon the
river and forced the occupants of the
float to swim to the right bank and sur
render.

se~"Germany." says the Temps. insisted
that the minutes of the negotiations for
peace should include statement that
the treaty comprised neither indemnities
nor annexations. 1t is now known that
the treaty includes a clause under which
40 villages with 10000 inhabitants. all
purely Rumanians In blood, have been
annexed by Hungary. If the Dobrudja
is Included, the German peace, which In
volved no annexations. resulted in Ru-
rnania's losing $4,000 square kilometers
of territory and more than 100000 sub
jects.
THE statement as to no indemnities
being involved is more lying still. In in
sisting on her right to all the petrol
which Rumania produces and to all the
cereals she may require irrespective Of
Rumania's own wants. Germany has
levied a war indemnity consisting of the
definite account constituted by the diff
ference between the price Germany will
pay for these articles and their real
value.
Moreover. the Rumanian Government
is to be responsible for the payment for
goods sold to Austro Germans, who pro-
pose merely to open an account with
Rumanians which they will pay when
they choose.
"Other facts are more significant still.
A German company has been formed
with capital of s0.000,000 marks to
monopolize the agricultural produce of
Rumania. In order to insure having
farms to exploit. this company during
the period of military occupation eN-
torted forced leases, which, are really
disguised robberies and are confirmed
by9the treaty of peace.
There remained the problem of how
TO secure the necessary labor. On the
eve of the signature Of the peace orders
were promulgated by the commanders
Of six enemy divisions. which are to re-
main in Rumania calling up the whole

fourteen and sixty to carry out the work
ordered by the German authorities. Re
fusal to obey was made punishable by
deportation or Imprisonment Of from
one 70 five years, or even. in certain
cases not specified, with death.
"One detail should be noted. When
the Rumanian peace delegates COM
planned against the drastic conditions,
the German delegates replied that the
terms inflicted on Rumania were ex-
trennely moderate compared with those
which would be laid down in the treaties
imposed On France. Italy and England.
