POSITION OF ITALY FOR

After CaporcttO. for u considerable
time the position was critical In the
extreme. When the enemy crossed the
Isonzo and broke through on the ex-
IRENE left OF our forces. the position OF
the Second Italian Army was turned.
and that 1t escaped even with severe
losses is something like Il miracle. The
position in this campaign of ours Is
peculiar. THAT popularity arises from
the coniiguration OF our frontier. which
was carefully planned to our disad :
vantage by the Austrians In 1866. On
the British and French fronts it is diff

that the downfall of Crispi. one Of our

country they held firm and at the pres

have from the English and French has
had most stimulating effect upon
them. Apart from all other considcra-
