Moro than 5, 000,000 Boldlers or tho countries at war with Germany, It Is estimated, havo beon killed, wounded or cap tured. Thoso rigures, compiled al most exclusively lu foreign countries by "Heer mid Polltlk," nro pres ented lu an effort to show that .It aly's on try Into tho war cannot hopo to offset, numerically, tho losses or her present allies. In Conservative, "Heer unci Polltlk," purposely goes outside or Germany for esti mates of tho French, English nnd Russian losses, so fur tis possible, lu order to err on tho sldo of conserva tism and not lay itsolf open to charg es of Inflation. Tho French estimat es aro taken lu part from tho Italian papers tho French Journals publish no lossos and somo of tho Russian figures have been secured In tho English publications, Russia Loses Most Russia is shown to have beon the heaviest loser, with moro than 3, 000.000 mon.
