ALLIED ARMIES READY FOR
WHAT MAY BE HUNS LAST PUSH

Tyrol front were stripped. on the other
hand il Is believed here the Germans
have no desire to aid In any Austrian
enterprise against Italy. Hindenburg
undoubtedly has fairly accurate infor-
nation regarding the greatly Increased
transport OF American troops TO France.
The information must, according to
the view here. be disturbing factor IN
his calculations. However the Germans
are certain 10 renew their drive soon.
There is no tendency here TO believe the
enemy is content with his present gains.
Peace with victory has been promised
the German people, and peace with VIC
tory cannot be won by defensive tao
tics.
The Allies are waiting for The Ger
mans to come on. There is confidence
In the outcome: confidence given by the
admirable defensive tactics Of Foch, the
fast rising tide OF American reinforce
ment and the knowledge that the hour
for the counter offensive may be ap-
preaching.
This confidence was echoed today in
aA-eassuring Rome message TO the
Italian embassy here saying the lines
will hold even il major blow Is struck
as a result Of the Kaiser-Emperor con
ference.
Italian military experts said that
repetition Of a disaster such as that OF
last fall is impossible.

- WASHINGTON, May i5-The long
continued delay Of the Germans in re-
newlng their offensive in France is
leading military experts here TO believe
that all Is not well back Of the eneTny's
lines. II is almost two months since
the drive began and the lull now has
lasted three weeks. Unless there has
been some radical disarrangement OF
the German plans a widely known otil-
Ger said today, Hinderburg would not
have permitted the Allies 10 strengthen
their lines. And they most certainly
have done that within the last few
weeks.
One report from London yesterday
said that the Kaiser had asked for 800
600 Austrian troops on the western
front. Another London story said that
the "all highest" Is insisting on an at
tack in Italy.
There is an apparent wide variance in
those statements. The real truth,
American officers believe, is that the
German stan is uncertain as TO the
court to be pursued. They say, however
Germany undoubtedly will make one or
two more major trusts in time.
Austria dare not weaken her forces in
Italy. With unrest. almost TO the verge
OF mutiny, rife in the army, the dual
monarchy would invite disaster II the

WASHINGTON, May i5.-Germany IS
seeking TO augment her armies by con-

Russian territory purely and simply q

These statements represent official

Both programs are in line with the
Teuton plan OF ending the war this
year By getting fresh men for the
army Germany hopes TO make mill
tary decision possible. But, is she can
not get the border lands to yield the
desired cannon fodder, she seeks at
least 20 dominate Russia utterly, so
that she can later go before the world
with the insidious plea-"We VIII give
up the West II we can hold what we
have in the East
= Both the plans represent a very Sc
rious menace which the Allies must
consider according TO officials. One
said today the Western military sit
uation. plus this tangled Russian prob
lem. meant that England and France
must drain their manpower much far
ther while the United states proceeds
10 throw in a greater force than we
have thus FAR contemplated.
