NEED new VICTORY"
Germans Hope To Silence Muir.
muring.
Drive on Russia Believed Intended to
Cover Brest-Litovsk Failure
May Fan War Spirit.

Washington, Feb. 20.-Germany's
military leaders hope to lull the Ger
mar people with a victory" against
defenseless Russia.
That was the way the military men
sized up the German-Russian stu
alton and the fact that despite Aus.
trian opposition to warning on the
Russians the Teuton armies are now
striking anew at Russia.
To Try to Still Murmurinps.
The German leaders, according to
thought here, hope to work their will
with Russia, obtain desired territory
by shutting Russia of from the Baltic,
and then try to still the murmurings
at home by presenting this new
victory"
The utterly disorgaRized Russian
army can give the Russians little as
sistance Immediately, military men
say. While there are sufficient mill
tary forces and equipment for the
Bolsheviki to fight against the Tx.
raine government there is now scarce
ly the shell of a fighting army, hence
the Germans are expected to have free
swing.
May Revive War Spirit.
While Russia's sole thought has
long been peace, it Is believed the
Teuton course will fan the %militaristic
spirit anew. Russia still has a con-
siderable force under arms, but the
lines of communication are poor and
the supplies are low. Morale is
shattered, so all in all Germany is
going up against one of the easiest
and most unique military ventures,
apparently, which any army ever had.
The German drive will be used in
the American propaganda to empha-
size the German annexationist policy.
and the emptiness of the Teuton
claim of defense of Ukraine will be
pointed out.
