Italians No Longer in
Danger of Surprise Attack,
Says War ENJOY to u. S.
[StQf Corresponden cel

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. = General
Pasquale Tozzi, head of the Italian war
mission in the United States, who at
the time of the Italian retreat predict
ed the positions to which the Italians
would fell back, stated to-day that the
expulsion Of the Austrians from the
lower Piavc, reported in press dis
patches from Rome, ushers in new
phase Of war on the Italo Austrian
front.
General 1ozzi said the Italians no
longer entertain any approximations of
. surprise by the enemy, as the sue
cesses on the lower Piave have def
nitely removed this danger from the
possibilities.
"Numerous achievements had been
brought UP to the Italian front from
the Russian and Rumanian fronts by
the Germans and Austro Hungarans,"
he said, and measures were taken i'm
meGately TO prevent surprises. An
Italian attack has resulted in expelling
the enemy from that part of the front,
and also accomplished the purpose for
which it was intended. namely, the pre-
venting of a surprise by the Austrians.
The victory of the Italians means
shat the lines chosen by the Italian
command for the resistance to the in
yasion are now reasonably firm and can
le successfully held"

Commission Needed
For Balkan Problem
Bulgaria Expected to Demand
That Germany Have Voice
in Settlement
lStaf Correspondence

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 The solu-
ton OF the Balkan problem suggested
by Prcsidtnt Wilson in his recent ad-
dress to Congress "along historically
established lines of allegiance and ma,
tlonality'' will necessitate the creation
OF special commission, according to
diplomats here, to arrive at and de-
clare their findings. which will be ap-
piled by the powers.
1t is understood that Serbia and
Greece would oppose commission plan
OF settlement and that Bulgaria also
would be hostile to the proposed settle
ment unless representatives of Austria
Hungary and Germany should be mem
bers of the commission. The commits
sion, it was said. would have to be Gre
ated by the peace conference, and the
general terms of peace would have an
immediate bearing on the treatment Of
the Balkan nation.
Persons here in close touch with Rul-
garlan sentiment said to-day that in
any determination affecting the Bal
kans Bulgaria will insist. AS has been
made plain by the Bulgarian Prime
Minister. that international acts which
have recognized the Bulgarian charac-
ter Of Macedonia shall be taken into
consideration.

u. S. Destroyers on
Submarine Duty
Are Making Good

WASHINGTON. Jan. 19.-Amcrican
destroyers are standing the strain Of
war service in foreign waters better
than the most sanguine official here
expected. Recent reports from the de-
;stroyer force show that few vessels
nave been out of commission for any
length of time for repairs, despite the
arduous character of their work. The
seamanship of the men aboard tho
fighting craft and the skill of the
picked forces aboard the repair ships
are said to be responsible for the re-
suit, although substantial construc-
ton, selected material and good de-
signing play their part.
The most striking instance of the
durability of these light craft is that
of a destroyer which went into dry
dock only after having steamed moro
than $4,000 miles. Examination showed
she needed only scraping and painting
Her engines and machinery equipment
generally had been kept in perfect Or
der by her own men and the repair
ship crews while she was cruising.

Big Guns Increase
Fire on West Front

LONDON, Jan. 19.--Thc German Off
eial war statement on the West front
operations to-day revealed an increase
of the reciprocal artillery activity
which may mean more serious winter
operations than have been seen for
some time.
Besides lively big gun duels in the
salient northeast >of Yprcs. on the
south bank of the Scarpe River and in
the neighborhood OF. Moeuvres, the
Berlin statement declared that the
firing activity increased on many parts
of the front, Especially on both sides
of the Mouse River"
The Verdun front may be the point
selected for an attack. Many large
scale trench raids have been made
there recently by both sides. The
German statement to-day said Mat
French prisoners had been taken north
of Bezonvaux in an assault, while
Paris reported special artillery activ-
ity at the same point of the front.
The French communique also said
the artillery firing had increased in
the neighborhood of Auberive. The
British statement said nothing of in
tereSt had occurred

Loosens Censorship
by Tho Associated Press1


STOCKHOLM, Jan. 19-Reports of
strikes and other demonstrations in
Austria, which the Austrian govern
ment has permitted to be telegraphed
abroad, acquire new significance when
read in connection with the Vienna
"Arbeiter Zeitung's" report of five So
cialist meetings held in Vienna Sunday.
The meetings, which were attended. by
vast numbers of persons, protested
against "robbing the Austrian people
OF all influence in the peace negotia-
tons by continually postponing the
meetings of the Chamber of Deputies
and the delegates, and by suppressing
all criticism in the press Of Germany's
and Austria's foreign policy"
The meetings demanded that the
peace negotiations at Brest-Litovsk be
conducted in friendly spirit, chat
the government reject all efforts to-
ward open Or veiied annexations and
that it reject the demand that Russia's
border nations right of self determina
ton be rendered illusory, and also re-
ject the desire to annex portions of
