THE CONDITION OF VICTORY,

Nor have the untoward incidents of the war weakened my faith in ultimate vic- tory-always provided that the Allied nations put forth the whole of their strength ere it is too late. Anything less must lead to defeat. The Allied countrios have an overwhelming prepûnderamos in the raw material that goes to the making and equipment of armies, whether in met, nonEY. or accessible metals and machinery. But this material has to be mobilized and utilized. It would be idle to pretend that the first 12 months of the war has seen this task accomplished satisfautorily. Had the Alics realizad in time the full strength of their redoubt. able and resourceful foes-nay, what is more, had they realized their strength and resources, and taker prompt action to organize them-to-day we should have witnessed the triumphant spectacle of their guns pouring oute stream of shot and shelf which would have deluged the German trenches with fire and scorched the German legions back across their own frontiers.
