TURKEY To SEND
AUSTRIA TROOPS
FOR NEW DRIVE

Turkey has promised Austria re-
endorsements, according to a Rome
dispatch received here. In conse-
quence Of this promise. further con-
centrations OF Austrian troops have
been observed on the Italian front
and Italian critics predict a renewal OF
the Austrian offensive.
This news came as a distinct diSap
pointment TO many officers here who
since the talk Of sending American
troops TO Italy. have been placing
their hopes on an Italian drive across
the PiaYe as a means Of diverting
pressure from the French front
While Italian opinion does not seem
TO warrant belief in the possibility
or an offensive from the allied side
OF the line. il is high in its con-
ndence in the futility OF an Austrian
offensive at this time. Italian posi-
tions as all vital points have been
strengthened within the last few
weeks
II is further believed that any
n oment the Boohepisn and Jugo-
;slsv troubles may require the atten-
tion OF a large part OF the Austrian
army Italy on its part is vigorously
repressing German propaganda. Dis
patches received here today tell Of
