Americas
Millions

In sense, the situation comes down to
this: The British and French alike are
putting in their last reserves. Neither
will have any considerable reserve when
this present campaign is over. They could
not and would not do this were it not for
the visible demonstration that America
is coming. Their strength will enable
them to hold the line this year with such
minor aid as we can supply. But it would
not enable them to face another cam
paign if there were not from million to
a million and half of American troops
to count on next year.
But the million is an established and
calculable fact; this being so there is not
the smallest chance that French or Brit
ish publics will think of making peace
with the German, who has scored materi
al but not decisive successes this year
and will saak to get peace by negotiation

Victory Campaign
In 1919

There will be campaign of 1919, in
my Judgment, because the German can
not win the war this year and our
Allies are satisfied largely because OF
our aid to them that next year the Ger
man will lose it beyond doubt. / know
OF nothing at once more moving and
more SOLDERING than the voice that comes
to US now from our French and British
Allies. But it is interesting to think Of

Small Chance of Allied
Offensive

In sum, on the military side it seems
to me that the largest conceivable gain
for the German this year will be the
occupation of the Channel ports and the
dislocation of the British front in such
fashion as to force the British armies
south of the Somme. But once this &C.
ours then the Allies, despite the loss of
territory of patent value, will be in a
stronger military position, for their
lines will be shortened and they will no
longer be threatened with dangers
which grow out of the geographical cir
cumstances of their present posture in
the north of France.
Now there remains, on the military
side, the question of the ability of the
Allies, when the German has at last
used up his reserves, to take the often
cive themselves. This was somewhat
foollshly expected by most of US at the
crisis of the recent fighting before
Amlens, when there was little exact
knowledge as to the strength of Allied
reserves and a general misapprehension
OF the extent of the British defeat and
the remoteness of the main mass of
French reserves, who were then COW
ering Paris against thrust from

No Chance This Year of Peace by
the Sword or Peace Through
; Collapse-Allied Counter Of
fensive Unlikely Hindenburg
Faces Napoleon's Problem
By FRANK H. SIMONDS
Author of ''The World War" "They Shall Not Pass"

st the moment when new and
critical phase of the campaign of 1918
;s about to open it may seem out of
Mace to open the discussion of cam
,s;pn of 1919. Yet the progress of
.he present campaign has already pretty
clearly forecast the certainty of an
ether In word, it begins to be reason
ably patent that neither the Germans
NOR our allies can hope for decisive
vetory this year. And it is worth not
mo that the German press, which goose
items" at imperial command, is already
earning the German public that fifth
uinter of war is inevitable.
There must be campaign of 1919
because there is not the smallest evil
dence that either side can this year &C
eomplish results which will make peace
Inevitable, a peace by the sword.
Waterloo, Sedan, Jena, these triumphs
from which Immediately flowed a ma
tional defeat, are reckoned outside the
calculations of war in its present form,
when nations, not small professional
armies, fight, and restricted fronts
manned by huge forces make the old
fashioned style of battle out Of the
question.
The Three Chances
OF Peace
Peace this year can only be had I'M
der one of three conditions: First, that
the Allies are beaten completely and
beyond rallying in the present campaign
and a. a result of the German offensive.
Second, that the Allies are able, hav-
ing parted the German attack, to take
the offensive themselves and do what
tie French and British were unable to
do at the Marne; namely, transform a
battlefield success. won in a counter Of
fensive, into decisive victory. Third,
il the people behind the line, the civil
populations, either of the Allied or of
the enemy nations, collapse and compel
the military forces to abandon
struggle which in the field has so far
been indecisive.
NoV, looking at the question Of the
possible German victory, is there any
reason to believe that it can reach the
magnitude of a Sedan or a Waterloo;
that is, the magnitude of the conse-
qpences Of these famous battles? Ger
tainly there is nothing to suggest it in
the progress OF the campaign in its
first two months. 1t is possible that
the Germans may get to the Channel,
that Dunkirk, Calais ano Boulogne will
have to be evacuated as a result of
further and far more considerable Ger
man advances in Flanders. The awk-
ward and difficult CONFORMATION of the
British line north of the Scarpe, the
lew lines Of lateral communication
available Tor the transfer of troops
from south to north, the unmistakable
advantage gained by the German in his
opening attack both in and around
flanders, may result In the slow with
drawal of the British toward the south
and the Strengthening out of the line.

Allied Disaster
Unlikely

This possibility is not probability,
out short of an unforeseen disaster un-
likely under existing conditions the
most that we have to fear is the slow
out sure advance of the German and
the equally deliberate shortening and
retiring of the British lines. The loss
Of the Channel ports will not constitute
the sort Of defeat which compels the
loser to abandon the fight. On the. con-
uary, Britain, with the Kaiser at Calais,
Will be forced to fight with renewed
energy, for it will be an even more
deadly peril than the presence of Ger
man troops at Ostend and Zeebrygge.
And to get to the Channel ports will
take time and colossal human sacrifices.
further, it is not to reach any city or to
Ake any province that the German set
out on his latest offensive. He under
look to crush the British army, and even
ne takes the Channel ports he will
not accomplish this, because he will not
separate the British from the French
nor close the road for the British re-
urement southwark. When the cam
paign ends, should it see the German
established at Calais and Boulognc-
ana do not think it will---he would
