(Give them hot biscuits and butter and
coffee. It's not the food they care

NEW YORK, Nov. 28,—Under
the protection of their heavy
guns, the British have now begun
to mass their attacks on the
Cambrai front against the re
maining bulwarks of the (GF&rman
base, still in the hands of the en
emy. These are chiefly the north
erly slopes of the rising ground of
Bourlon wood that run down into
the village of Bourlon; the village
of Fontaine de Notre Dame, east
of Bourlon, and the neighboring
Lafolie wood and the German po
sitions to the west of Bourlon
along the Little Mirondelle River
southeast of the important pivotal
support point of Queant. &
The latest British attacks were
suceessful in driving the Germans
from a portion of Fontaine de
Notre Dame village. A stubborn
fight occurred in the streets of the
little town, but at latest reports
the British have worked their way
through Its northwestern por
tion. The German position in La
Folie wood, to the southeast, is
a menace against the British hold
on FontaAine and will need to be
cleaned out.
The British broke through the
Germian line on tne southern edge
of Bourlon village and succeded
in getting into the hamlet and
bringing back some English de
tachments which had been sur
rounded. They were unable, how
ever, to hold any ground within
the village itself. All German
counter attacks against the Brit
ish positions on the high ground
of Bourlon wood were summarily
driven off. British heavy- artil

Reinforcements Rushed to Front

Impends.
Continued From Page 1. ‘
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; Becond, they failed to take into
consideration the possibility of quick
aild being given to tne 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 being 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
talns to Verona. Such a retirement
by the .Italians 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 for
a continuation of the struggle is
shown by the closing of the Austro-
German frontier and the Franco-Ital
ian frontier. These steps have been
made to cloak the amount of rein
forcements that are being sent into
the arena of action in. northern
Italy, .
Dispatches from Rome today said
that the struggle between the Piave
and Brenta valleys is continulng with
the utmost fury, Powerful Austro-
German attacks were made in the
Brenta valley, but alf have been re
pulsed with severe losses. In inter
vals of the Teuton assaults the Ital
ians are counter attacking all along
the line.
tro-German forces on the north
ern battle line, between the Piave
and the Brenta rivers, continue
their “desperately stubborn at
tempts to breach the defenses on
the mountain heights. Once more
these heavy massed attacks were
delivered with great spirit and
succeeded in driving back the in
vaders and caQturing prisoners.
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 confliet now raging,
Prussian militarists are already lopk
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 Europe runs red with
blood, into the future with belligerent
glances.
~_An insight Into the war-sodden
minds of Prussian militarists 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
Baron 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
the general staff. His book breathes
blood and thunder preparations.
Army Must Expand.
After arguing that the German army
must be expanded after the present
conflict is over, Von Freytag con
tinues:
“We shall have to continue to pur
sue this road in the future quite apart
from the necessary increase in gar
rison artillery and technical troops.
Moreover, when the number of those
who have fought in the great war has
fallen away we shall have to aim at
subjecting at least 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, so that when 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 army.
“What is the 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
this terrible murder of peoples point
inevitably to disarmament to pave
the way to permanent peace? The
reply is that no one can undertaké to
guarantee a long period of peace.
Lasting peace is guaranteed only by
strong armaments. Moreover, world
power is inconceivable without strik
ing for expressions of power in the
world and consequently ' for sea
power.”
Favors Greater Navy.
Gereeral 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 see for
cohesion in its glorious army and in
its 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
:? our thinking on strategy and tac
ey
The last chapter of the book is call
ed “Still Ready for War,” and argues
that Germany must be ready to
plunge into fresh conflict after the
present whirlwind of bloodshed and
horror is over. Von Freytag ex
presses the opinion that Germany, by
her position in Europe and in world
politics, “German soldiers must re
jevt all ideas of pacifism and inter
nationalism.
“Germany did not have nearly
enough armaments on’ lJand and sea
when the present war began,” writes
Von Freytag, “and this must be rem
edied in the future. More money will
be unconditionally requested to equip
the fatherland as Bshe 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 yeéars’ compulsory
military training must be contin
ued.
