KEEN LONDON, July 3—(Ny mall.) —Success in Measured in terme of real estate If it were, Great Britain and her allies might point with consider pride to the acquisition in the last two years of more than three the acreage of the German empire. Hut as Napoleon observed, the smashing of armies is the only thing that matters. Germany's armies are today just as much un smashed as they were two years ago. The last year on the western front has been one of stalemate There have been tremendous losses on both sides, but the lines of the opposing armion follow much the same course asx they did in August of 1915, Both armies, thelr losses recruited, remain unbroken Under the new style of intensive trench warfare which has been steadily developing on this front during the two years, the defenses of each have apparently become impregnable. The objective of the “big push” in these latter days is to inflict the greatest possible | damage upon the other side Attrition” has become the motto on the western front for both armies Great Britain stil! ie paying the penalty of unpreparednem Sir Douglas Haig's armies are suffering from the same defect a# those of his predecessor, they are inadequately officered, especially in the staff department But if Britain's successes in the field have not been overly brilliant, no one will dispute that her achievement in recruiting, organizing, training and equipping an army of more than five million men since the war began—and on the voluntary principle, too—haw been one of | the marvels of military history Adding to this number those who have been brought in under the recent conscription act—somewhat Jess than a million—and those employed in the munitions and naval shipbullding industries, the sec ond anniversary of the war finds approximately eight million men and women directly engaged in war work or, in other words, one person out of every six in the United Kingdom. GERMANY FIGHTS FOR DIPLOMATS BY CARL w. ACKERMAN BERLIN, July 1.—(By Mail.)—The second year of the war will be known In Germany's military history aw the year of political stratecy The moves on the military chessboard of Europe have been dictated | by International relations, Fighting was framed to help the diplomats. The Balkan campaign was political The attack on Verdun was political By these campaigns Germany won Bulgaria for an ally, kept |mania and Greece neutral, and greatly scattered the forces of | allies | Judging solely from appearances tn Berlin and at the front, | close of the first two years of the war doew not find Germany nor her allies exhausted in a military way. Germany Ras not yet called out | all of her 1916 class, while France has called the 1917 class, If Ger many does this, her army can be Increased at any time over 600,000 |men, The summer and fall months may see great battles in more than jone war theatre modern warfare isn't Ru the the CZAR ARMY DOUBLES IN 2 YEARS BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS PETROGRAD, July 1.—(By mail.)—"The Rumian army ts twice as big as it was when the war started, ts better fot, equipped and wu | nitioned. Militartly, we are able to carry our part of the load. It was the president of the Duma, Mikhail Rodzianko, who told ine this, a leader known to Russia as a frank, outspoken man. This | man knows something about armies, He began life as an officer from a military academy. He ts actively engaged on army problems now Quick-mobilizing countries mobilize on the frontier. Russia, un: able to throw miilione of men on the enemy's boundary line in time. concentrated in the interior, She expects to commence hostilities in a clash inside her own territory against invaders | Rusnia then performed a heroic thing when she threw herself | | | across the border into eastern Prussia five days after the war began, unprepared by at least a month, tho she knew herself to be. It is eaid Germany aimed to crush Russia and make a separate Peace after Warsaw. But Russin was not crushed. She knows de fonsive fighting too well. She lost much, but her army is stronger |now than ever. A high French official eaid to me “Russia is unbeatable. She ts too big. She can keep on retreating until at last the enemy will be swallowed up.” | When Grand Duke Nicholas wae sent to the Caucasus, the czar himself took command of the Russian front proper. He now spends | Httle time in Petrograd. For the last few months, the citizen organizations of Russia have been backing up the army with vigor. So unified are these groups that there are today two armies fighting for Russia—a soldier army and a citizen ona Thus, after two years of war and many disasters, the Russian army believes its darkest days, are over. FRENCH ARTILLERY WORLD'S BEST BY HENRY WOOD PARIS, July 1—(By mail.)—Within two years, despite the handi |cap of maintaining her own unequal end tn the world’s greatom war, France has butlt up a military machine that today the French contend in superior to the organization Germany was 40 years in preparing. France is not a military nation, but she takes credit for genius {n organization and resourcefulness which she would have preferred to employ in pursuits of peace. That her armies today are superior to those of Germany, France feels hae been demonstrated by their successful resistance to date Barring the first two months of the war, when unprepared France fell back under the impetus of this world’s Colossus, she has held her own. France feels Verdun {8 the supreme test of the present relative efficiency of the two fighting machines This intensive organization has cost France tremendous effort Since the beginning of the war, 5,000,000 Frenchmen have worn the French uniform in actual service.

There is not one French soldier who 1s wearing the same uniform or using an ounce of the same material he entered the | war with, All have been entirely refitted many times | So far back as the Balkan wars the remarkable effictency of | French artillery had been demonstrated. Germany began the war with an abundance of heavy artillery but they could not compete with the mechanical perfection of the French guns or the superiority of the French artillery fire. This wae France's great military secret, jealously years, She has since shared It generously with her allies When the present war began, it was one of the national scandals in Italy, that her artillery did not have a single modern field piece France allowed her to equip her entire army from the Dupont works ITALIANS FIGHT 0 N MT, PEAKS BY JOHN H.
