fore June I.

Washington. A call for 5000
nurses between now and June l for
service in military hospitals at home
and abroad has been made upon the
Red Cross by Surgeon-General Gorgas,
of the army. Nearly 1000 nurses al
ready have been supplied by the Red
Cross, but the need for more grows
imperative daily. OF the $4,000 or co..
900 registered nurses IN the United
States, General Gorgas estimates that
approximately 10000 will be needed
for service in army hospitals during
this year.
Miss Jane A. Delano, Red Cross di
rector of nursing, issued an appeal to

navy insurance at nominal rates.

American ArtiIlerists Destroy German
EmpIacements From Which Poison
Gus Fumes Had Been Directed.

Photographs taken by aviators show
that the American artillery pulverized
the German gas emplacements from
which poisonous fumes were sent

Spiritual Gifts.

There are three degrees of spiritual
gifts for the children Of God First,
"Ask and We shall receive" This is
the simplest. We get it by simply ask
ing. Second, "Seek and ye shall find"
A little more difficult. Many have to
seek long time. Third, KNOCK and
1t shall be opened" This requires
some effort and some patience, but
may admit us into realm where we
can get anything and find anything for
little asking and little seeking.

The strain between Austria and Ger

spite of Germany's renewal of the war
against the bolsheviki has increased the
tenseness of the situation existing be-

reported that Germany had practically
ordered the Austrian government to
send troops into Russia, and that Aus
tria had refused. Austria also refuses

The most encouraging thing for the
future of both Roumania and Russia

that the expected German offensive will
be a staggering blow to withstand, they
are confident that the western line will
hold, and that the Hun plans will re-

America will soon have half million
men on the western front, England has
added nearly half million more men
to her vast army under General Haig,

While the long-distance debate be-
tween the statesmen of the belllgerent
countries has been looked upon with
approval by leaders of thought in this
country on the theory that no chance
Of effectng n peace on terms accept
able to the allies should be overlooked,
at the same time there has been feel
ing that the continued peace talk may
have harmful effect upon the public
morale in the allied countries. There
has been determination in Washing
ton not to permit any peace discus
siOns to delay war preparations for
one minute, and the only harmful eff
feet, it is declared, would be upon the
spirit of the people.
While there are still conflicting Opin-
ions as to whether Germany will un-
dertake a real offensive on the west
front this spring, reports coming in
directly from Germany indicate that
the German public is being prepared
for the tremendous losses that must
result If such an offensive is attempt
ed. Dispatches from Stockholm de-
clare that the German high command
has given the executive committee Of
the reichstag the confidential informa-
ton that the contemplated offensivewill
cost Germany million men. For this
staggering price, 1t Is declared, Gen
eral Won Hindenburg and General Won
Ludendorf have absolutely guaranteed
success. Leaders of the majority in
the reichstag are said to be recOnciled
to the offensive as the only thing left
for Germany to do, but there Is wide
spread feeling Of pity and horror that
a million lives should be sacrificed
when victory, however great it may be
will not force peace. The Germans, II
is declared, at the most, expect that
big military victory will convince
America and England that Germany Is
unbeatable and to make the western
world amendable to suggestions for q
peace conference.

American forces occupy splendid po-
sitions throughout practically the en-
tire line. They are in nearly all cases
on the high ground, and 1t is these
strong defensive positions against
which Germany must throw her shock
troops in massed battaions. The
price these troops will pay for even an
attempt to break through will be ter
rife. and in all probability more than
the million men Won Hindenburg has
prophesled. 1t Is not likely that
even the iron discipline Of the German
army will withstand such losses.

The speech OF Count Won Hertllng.
German imperial chancellor, before the
reichstag in reply TO President Will
sons most recent address before con

ers in the United States or England
as increasing the chance for peace.
Count Won Hertling prOfessed accept
ance Of the four principles OF demo-
cratic peace enunciated by President
Wilson and disclalmed any intention
of conquest but these protestations
have not convinced President Wilson

nearly all the foreign territory that
she now occupies.
Count Won Hertling's reference to
Belgium is far from satisfactory.
While limiting that Germany does not
contemplate anneXing Belgium, the
chancellor proposes to impose cOndi-
tiOns which would restrict the freedom
of action of the kingdom and place IT at
the mercy of the Teutonic empire.
The entente point Of view was ex.

Every report received from Austria
indicates that that country would
willingly seek peace on any fairly rea-
sonable basis offered by the allies, II
II were possible for her to do So but
she is so dominated by German inhu-
ence that it is hardly possible for her
to break away. The hold OF Germany
Is maintained through the Austrian
army which has been very largely Ger
manized since the war began.
So it Is believed that Austria will
have to remain in her unhOly partner
ship despite her war WEAKNESS. She
has lost 3,500,O00 men, her food situ-
alton is desperate, and the future,
even If Germany could win, Is dark
for her, for greater Germany would
only mean a more impotent Austria,
but she cannot break away. She
must continue in the war under pain
of being stamped on by the nation
that has her in its power.
That is how our allies regard the
Austrian situation, and Is the ex.
planation of their lukewarmness
toward the American effort to widen
the rift between the kaiser and EN-
peror Carl.
