Fears Peril of Long
War, Says Belloc
By HILAIRE BELLOC,
Foremost Military Writer in Europe.
Anyone who will exercise the nec
essary restraint, and discover the
necessary wisdom, to look at the war
as it now is will agree that the un
certain ,temper of many people in
Bngland at the present moment is
due, not to calculable definite mili
lary forces the interplay of which
‘they could define, but to nothing more
than the efflux of time.
It is the succession of days and
weeks without events upon which
‘anxiety can fasten for relief that has
produced this mental effect.
They have been taught that victory
‘wu a matter of course, taking place
far from these shores and lmormw
‘but slightly with the general co rt
‘ot the community,
It is no wonder that upon such
startling misconceptions (and they
were very common) of European war,
the development of the present cam- |
paign should have bred disappoint
ment. The two chief elements in that
‘dlnppoinunent have been to this sec
lion of opinion the necessity for en
durance and the obvious possibilities
of fallure,
ATTITUDE OF GERMAN
‘ HIGHER COMMAND.
~_lf, however, one forgets this irra
tional mood into which a portion of
‘the public has fallen and considers the
situation as it is, then it is precisely
the factor of time which appears as
an advantage to the Alliance, though
there are other factors gravely disad
vantageous to it.
| In order to see the situation as it is,
the best way Is always to take the
point of view of the foe's higher com
mand,
Napoleon Bonaparte during the first
days of hi& occupation of Moscow in
1812 certainly exaggerated the
chances in his favor, and was subject
to illusions both upon the Russian
character and upon the mere mathe
matics of the military situation,
The German higher command at
this moment may possibly suffer from
similar misjudgments of mental fac
tors in the situation. He may think
the French to be a softer people than
they are, or the British a less consec
|ufl\'o people than they are. But he
has before him certain elements of
calculation which he can not ignore
Lot us see how the situation ap
pears to him.. .
Of his plan as a whole he now
knows, like a piece of ancient history,
that he has failed in that rapid action
which was his one clearly thought
out scheme,
He failed to surround, pierce or put
out of action in any fashion the
French armies. Therefore, his war,
which was to have been the end of a
trilogy, the short, sure, triumphant
and conclusive ohinor paraliel to, but
'nm' than, the chapters of 1266 and
870, has become an immensely ex
pensive, not yet disastrous, but al
ready very doubtful thing,
He is in this respect like a man who
goes out In his vacht from Plymouth
O make Cherbourg (having previous.

In the near future, will permit him to
save the Prussian State and its de
pendents, He does not hope for more.
He no longer talks of HEuropean
domination. He no longer preadhes}
the necessity and beauty of aggres
sion. He now talks of the territory
he now occupies as an asset for bar
gaining. He now talks of an “honora
ble” peace.
He now emphasizes the uselessness
of bloodshed and the wickedness of
slaughter—ideas hitherto wholly for
elgn to Prussian history.
‘He, however, believes still in the
rmlhmy of a settlement which shall
eave Prussianized Germany intact
and secure from future challenge—
that is, free to continue its growth
and monace to others. He is working
for that.
But if he belleves this conclusion to
be possible through the political
weakness of the Allles, through their
divisions and lack of common direc
tion, .through their supposed weari
ness, through their diversity, through
the advent of new forces (as yvet neu
tral) upon his side, through the vio
lent financlal pressure which the cos
mopolitan usurers have already be
gun to exercise in his favor.
Yet he knows that every one of
these elements in his calculation, val
uable as they are, are separate from
the purely military elements of the
situation. ‘
These last he can not possibly dis
regard ~He knows them as well as wa‘
do. They may be tabulated In the
followlnilill:
MILITARY ASPECTS
OF SITUATION.
The great main forces of the Teu
tons and of the Allies stand, and must
necessarily stand, in Poland and in
France—that is, upon the eastern and
the western lines of the great siege,
If the end of the war finds them
still so standing, well and good for the
Teutons. If the lalter achieve upon
one of these two great lines a real de
cision, well and better for them. If
they really defeat—put out of action
‘~-the western or the Russian forces
opposed to them, they can then con
centrate upon the other and perhaps
defeat that in its turn. On the other
hand, the two great lines, the eastern
and western, equally offer an opportu
nity for the Allles
Let the invader suffer a decisive de
feat upon either and he is immediately
lost. He can not, after such a defeat,

Members of the Second Bapt!st
Church Monday were discussing with
interest the first sermons by their!
new pastor, Dr, Henry Alford Por:er,
delivered Sunday morning and eve
ning. It was evident that Dr. Porter
had made a favorable impression,
The new pastor proved as magnetlc
in the pulpit as he had been In informal
conversation — possessed of good
voice, of excellent delivery and im
pressive manner. In hls sermon in
the forenoon, which drew an unusual
ly large oongregation, Dr, Porler
volced his ambition to bebome a real
representative of the church and a
worthy successor to such preachers as
had gone before him
Letters of congratulation were ra
celved from Dr. John E. White, for
mer pastor; the Anderson First Ba)-
tist Church, to which Dr. White has
gone, and from the Central Presby
terian Church. the Second Baptist's
“next-door neighbor.”
A musical was given in the after
noon in honor of Dr. Porter, and a
reception by the members of F. J
Paxon's Sunday school class
