the magnitude of which is unequalled.
American troops occupy positions on
the fighting line in France, have held
a sector of their own northwest OF
Toul and have had numerous encoun-
tiers with the Germans. They have
been playing their part in resisting the
great offensive. as shown by the Brit
isl war Office reports that they were
fighting shoulder to shoulder with
the British and French near Roye."
The number Of our ready fighting
men has been increased from 100000
to about 100000, with some 10000
600 more registered under the draft
still available for calls to the colors
Secretary has predicted that 500,Q0G
men would be in France early this
year and that another million would be
ready to go during the year
We are still on the way to a place
second only to that of Great Britain as
naval force. In destroyers alone
the most deadly weapon against the
submarine-the navy by the next year
will have the greatest fleet on the sew,
en- seas. Contracts for about 1000
vessels have been placed by the navy.

per gil administrator dele pro-

L'avvocato fa notare le tremen-

Fa poi questa domanda: Che
