league, Hindcnburg says: 'Things nre
going well, but the distinguished
chrtmbcr strategists in Berlin should
give us time to breathe, which is in-
rispenniblc today, when battles last
eicht days or more, when one cannot
- group the whole army upon a single
battlefield, and when two world pow
ers havo artilleries that are able to
enter into action simultaneously along

patience is imperative."

That locul boards ure Interpreting
