CANNOT HOLD OUT
Military Men See in Peace and
Battle a Crisis. - .
Say German Cannot Stand Gaff
Much Longer.

Washington, Oct. 15.-Ahlitary men
doubt that Germany. can stand the
gaff" of American-allied punishment,
plus the urge of peace. much longer.
Frankly they think the peace aues-
ton should be left strictly to the al
lied armies to finish. But they admit
that the joint elements of enforced
their leaders are stretching the Ger
man morale to the breaking point.
War department information shows
that the average German soldier is
reaching the point where his mental
process is about thus:
Why Should He Fight?
"Why should 1 fight hard to hold
onto France and Belgium, when my
masters have said they are ready to
give it up? Why should 1 fight for the
kaiser when he is the only real OBJ
stacle in the way of peace now?'.
The allies main objects at the mo-
nent are Vafenciennes, Aulnoye and
Mezieres. Valenciennes commands the
wa to Mons and Aulnoye the way to
Mezieres.
With this line in their possession the
allied forces will be astride one of the
two German: communication: lines
across France about paralelling the
present battle line. The next big COM
muntcation line beyond parallels the
first ran line and has a chain of
mountainous country between. Two
lateral lines link the two.
When the allies get up to the Mons
Maubeuge-M region, it will be
necessary for the Feuton to pull his
forces much farther east. probably on
a line running down thru Antwerp and
Namur.
