IS OBSOLETE IS
ITALIAN BELIEF
By Andrue Herding
(Associated Press Foreign Staff),.
BOMB W .Italian military aur
thorlttos, calculating the result of
the recent army maneuvers, have de
clared that trench warfare was obso
lete. Thte conclusion, they said, re
sults from their observations of the
new rapidity In troop movements due
partly to the greatly increased use of
tanks
I
They declared the flrt onslaught
of tanks and fast moving troops
would break through a line of
trenches and force fighting out into
the open. The movement would then
become o rapid that there would be
no opportunity to dig trenches nor
would there be anything gained by
digging them. ; . , .
Contrasting tho eventual war with
the last, they said that on the west
ern front, when troops -broke through,
they entrenched themselves . In new
"inverted V" positions as they come
up against machine gun fire. The op
posing forces then counter-attacked
on tho bauis of the inverted V nnd
forced tho original attackers' retire
ment. .....
Iii; the eventual war, the Italian
expert said, the attacking force, afr
ter .breaking through their enemy's
lines, will not entrench but will con
tinue to push forward with tanks. ,
The experts said they also expected
to fight the eventual war with much,
fewqr men at the front, one reason
being a greater use of mechanical
weapons and another the difficulty :
of maintaining a service of supplies j
owing to enemy aircraft.
