West Side Definitely Cleared of In
vadcrs.

Headquarters of the Italian Army
in Northern Italy, Wednesday, Jan. 2
by the Associated Press) The ene-
my today attempted to gain the west
bank Of the Piave river to offset the
loss of Zenson. but met with a quick
repulse and the entire west bank
now Is definitely clear and held by
the Italians. A landing party on fiat
boats attempted to cross near Intes.
tadura. but an intense artillery and
machine gun fire concentrated on the
boats led to the abandonment Of the
attempt.
The general commanding the army
corps in the zenson sector Is receiv-
ing high praise for the tactics which
brought about the rout Of the enem,
from the only nest they were able t.
maintain on the west bank with heavy
enemy losses and virtually no italian
loss. This general informed the cor
respondent, as mentioned in O dis
patch forwarded on Christmas, that n
would not sacrifice his men by use
less frontal attack against machine
guns, but would slowly wear out the
enemy by continuous concentrations
of artillery on their positions in tn.
bend of the river. Many doubted
the generals ability to carry this out,
but his success on December 30 in
clearing out the enemy and saving hi
own men is meeting with the highest
praise.
The mountain front is completely
inactive, the enemy giving chief at
tention to air raids, which continu,
against Hassano. Treviso and Mes
tire, near Venice, without notabl.
damage or casualties. The italian and,
allied air feet is making vigorous re
prisals.
An impressive public funeral OF tn
victims OF the Pndua raids was at

ment. officials and huge concours

SEPARATE PEACE DANGER.
Correspondent Wonders If England
Realizes Situation.

| London, Jan. 1.-The Petrograd
correspondent of the Daily News
wonders whether the danger of a sep
arate peace is realized in England.
He says 1t would be defeat for Ger
man democracy in addition to in
surfing the virtual enslavement of
Russia, as it would be a victory for
the military caste in Germany
1T may mean" he added, much
more than Russia's neutrality. II we
make no move, it seems possible that
the Germans will ask the Russians to
help them in enforcing Russian peace
terms on the Entente Allies Trotzky
is we'll aware of the danger, though
he is doing his utmost to stimulate
revolution in Germany. Fraterniza-
ton at the front already has passed
beyond control of enemy officers and
enormous quantities Of revolutionary
newspapers printed in German are
being distributed. II am convinced
our only chance in defeating Ger
man designs is to publish as near the
Russian terms as possible and by
taking power hand in the proposed
conference help the democratic move
ment in Germany while helping the
Russians to force the German govern
ment In the direction it has had to
take. I"
Whatever party might be in pow
er in Russia it would be compelled to
conclude peace and Trotzky's meth
cd is more likely to damage Ger
many than the method of any more
polite person in his place. The ma
tionaltzation Of the banks puts a wea-
pom more powerful than the guillotine
in the hands Of the government and
probably will end much of the pres,
ent sabotage"

likely that the Germans, who are now
reckoning upon the great advantages
they expect from the Russian revolu-
tion will suffer a grievous disappoint-
ment provided the friehds Of the
