helped to frustrate the carefully laid
plans of¢the German general staff,
First, they failed to count upon the
true fighting spirit of the Italian sol
diers; second, they failed to take into
consideration the possibility of quick
aid being given to tue Italians by
the British and French.
Even should the Italians and their
French and British allies fall back to
another line, the defenses of which
are_ already beinf prepared, it is con
fidently believed that the Germans
will be unable to advance further than
the Venetian plain and a line lying
from Lake Garda through the moun
tains to Verona. Such a retirement
by the Halians is not yet indicated,
but even If it is made the Austro-
German armies, for all their sacrifices,
would dominate only the extreme
northeastern corner of Italy.
The magnitude of the preparations
that are being made on both sides far
a continuation of the struggle is
shown by the closigg of the Austro-
German rrontig and the Franco-Ital
fan frontier. hese steps have been
made to cloak the amount of rein
forcements that are being sent into
the arema of action in northern
Italy.
Dispatehes fromm Rome today said
that the struggle between the Piave
and Brenta valleys is continuing with
the utmost fury. Powerful Austro-
German attacks were made in the
Brenta valley, but all have tbeen re
pulsed with severe losses. In inter

War Lords of Germany
Even Now Look Forward
To Next Great Conflict
(By International News Service.)
THE HAGUE, Nov 28.—With Ger
many facing inevitable defeat in the
great world conflict now raging,
Prussian militarists are already look
ing forward to “the next war.”
There is a big question whether the
German people will be in a frame of
mind after this war to tolerate prep-\
arations for another holocaust of
arms, even if the Entente Govern
ments would permit it. Nevertheless,
indications are filtering out of Ger
many that the war lords, both great
and small, are looking, even at this
time when Burope runs red with
blood, into the future with belligerent
glances,
An tnslger“t into the war-sodden
minds of ssian militariets is given
by a book just published in Germany
called “deductions from the world
war,” a copy of which was received
here today from Berlin.
It is written by Lieutenant General
Bgon von Freytag-Loring Hoven,
who was quartermaster general of the
(German army when (General Falken
hayn was chief of the German general
staff. General von Freytag is now
stationed in Berlin as deputy chief to
thl:ogoneml staff. His book breathes
b and thunder prega.ratlous.

wes:

gue this road in the future quite apart
from the noceu;rg increase in gar

Moreover, when the number of thcse
who have fought in the great war has
fallen away we shall have to aim at
sabjecting at leu,t to a cursory train~
ing the men of military age who are at
first rejected, but who, in the course
of war, have turned out to be fit for
service, s 0 that whon war breaks out
they may form a generosu source of
reserves,
“Only so can we arrive at a real
peoples’ army, in which every one has
gone through the school of the
standing arm¥
“What is thé use of all this? It
may be asked. Will not the general
exhaustion of Burope after the world
conflagration put the danger of a new
war in the background and does not

the way to permanent peace? Tha
reply is that no one can undertake to
guarantee a long period of peace.
Lasting peace is guaranteea only by
strong armaments. Moreover, world
power i 8 inconceivable without strik

world apd consequently for sea
power.”
Favors Greater Navy.
General von Freytag then argues
for a greater German navy to cope
on sea with the increase of the Ger
man army on land. He says:
“In the future as in the past the
German people will have to sece for
cohesion in its glorious army and in
tts belaurelled young fleet.
“Our business is to maintain the
fundamental ideas of: war as they
liven in the German army up to 1914,
to so acknowledge when in the expe
rience of the present war and to
make the fullest technical use of
them. But we must do all this with
out giving an entirely new direction

The last chapter of the book is call
ed “Still Ready forfar," and argues
that Germany mu be ready -to
plunge into fresh conflict after the
present whirlwind of bloodshed and
horror is over. Von Freytag ex
presses the ogln!on that Germany, by
her position in Hurope ea‘nd in world
olitics, “German soldiers must re
fevt all ideas of pacifism and inter
nationalism,
“Germany did not have g nearly
enough armaments on land Qnd sea
when the present war began,” writes
Von Freytag, “and this must be rem
edied in the future. Mofre money will
be unconditionally re-%uelted to equip
the fatherland as e should be
equipped.
In one chapter on “Training” the
writer says that the sports of Ger
man boys must be utilized for mili
tary purposes, and that the principle
of two and three years’ compulsory
military training must be contin
ued.
