The military correspondent of the Cologne Gaz ile, who recently | returned to Germany from the front on leave, wrote:-" Above all, we cannot be grateful enough to our army for the fact that the
the weat front almost entirely- been established in "the enemy'a country, and that our own coun try bas been spared the horrora of battle. That is my first and most immediate impression on my return, and I should like to express it AB atrongly BA possible. When our enemies ory aloud as they do at present that пе have achieved
1101
thing, and when, in view of the stationary character of the war in the western theatre, faint- hearted and ignorant people in Germany give utterance to similar, opinions, it is necessary to remind them of this fact," But the faint-hearted and ignorant people of Germany might very well" remind their meator that they had been led to expect far greater achievements than this by the great German Army, and its failure to be in occupation of Paris or London, or even Celain, is very disquieting to the Clerman publio and gives rise to doubra as to the army's ability to remain west of the Rhine when the new British and French armies take the field against them.
Ching Hail;
*. Progress of the War. On the Belgian frost the figu ing has continued and still con- tinues to be of a desperate character. There, as in France, the Allies have, Ead the best of matters, and time is now on their sido. Tlo" decisive advance in France that we all anticipate with the arrival of the new army, will almost certainly mean a retren of the Germans in Belgium. Throughout the whole of the Eastern theatre the Russians have Bucconfully coped with the Germane and Austrians and
been have of late
making avery satisfactory advance. There is every reason to believe that they will continue to do so and that the present fighting in Poland will soon be transferred to
East Prussia, where indeed the Russians have even now firmly established themselves at several points. The recent events of this Citanic struggle havo undoubtedly. been of such a naturethatthey give good grounds for the belief that the Allies are ste.dily advancing' to complete victory and that a decisive action now on their part will probably bring, the end within measurable distance.
