The flooded Piave is said to be piving the Italians much the same fort of troudble that it did the Aus- frlans. This mcans of course that fhe Italiane have driven the invaders out of ail the territory which occupied as the result of the drive and have crossed to the Jast bark of the river where they are mlflnl to pursue the enemy fin to Inflict as great losses upon retreating army as possible and gain as much from the debacle as lemoralization which exists with- ih.hm Charles’ forces will per- 1t is not to be forgotten, and there # 1o chance that it will be, that when Austro-Germans drove back the from the Isonzo they took of every opening.

Even though the kaiser only Iast, March declared that “The German sword is our best protection” the forelgn secretars now naively declares that the end of the war “can hardly e expected through purely military decisions| alone negotiations.” Tt is likewise well membered that In the earlier days of the war that Herr von Jagow, for- eign secretary at that time, declared | fhat “Germany will under no pre- tense whatever, annex Belglan terri- tory" The present forelgn secretary indicates* a radical change in policy when he says that the imperial Ger- man government will not bind itself with any pledges regarding Belgium. to give to the allles is plainly indi- cated by the fact that it now has 200,000 under arms and more coming. be taken by the Bridgeport munition workers than to threaten to strike beceuse of the claim that they have not received their back pay under the new arrangement of prices.

Now that Italy has a ohance to return the blow the need of following up the chances which are presented to administer & knockout | n to Austria's army while the political and food eonditions within that coun- try are In such a deplorable state cannot be overlooked. Italy’s turn has ecome and ft must strike hard but in doing so it must guard carefully against the same sort of a trap into which the Austrians plunged. Going from the defensive. to the offensive may be easier said than done ly when a flooded and unbridged river has to be taken into consideratfon but if that handl- cap can be overcomte Italy stands in the way to galn what it seeks much more easlly now than it might at some later period. —t BETTER USE AVAILABLE LINE. There is nothing to {ndfcate that the rallroad administration is dis- posed to comply with the appeal for goveriment funds for the purpose of completing the Southern New Eng- land railroad planned to operate in connection with the Central Vermont between Palmer and Providence and on which line much preliminary wailk has already been done. On the other hand the fact that the administration has consented to respen the case in order that a further appeal may be made indicates that it i& even to proof of the advisability of” making such an expenditurs as is desired. It has not been weted since the in- creased demands tere made upon the raflroads that the Central Ver-|® ment has not been able to handle all the business that has been thrown in s direction.
