GERMAN OBJECT TO y ENTENTE LOSSES IN WAR 15,110 Berlin, via Sayville, Dec. 6. The official press bureau draws "curious conclusions" today from statistics is sued by the Copenbsgen Association for Research about social conse quences of the war on Human wel fare. , '. . These figures show entente losses as 15,200,000. Of these England lostr 1,200,000; Russian, 8,600,000; France, 3,700,000; Italy 800,000.; Serbia, 480,000; Belgium, 220,000; Roumania, 200,000. The "curious conclusions"- which the Press Bureau draws from these figures are: The losses by Serbia, Belgium and ftoumanla are threetfom-tha of the KnxllRh losses and, since in the es timate of Koiimanian losses Is in cluded only those of the first two months of the (ierman-tloiimunlan campaign, it can be, counted that these three small countries made the same sacrifices as the large Ilrltish empire. Italy already has suffered two thirds of the British losses, although she entered the war ten months later. The French losses are thrde times as large as the English and almost one-fourth the entire number of the entente losses, With tho German army at Plteiol, Roumania, Dec, 3. (Via Berlin and wireless to Sayville, Dec. 8.) Bucharest's fate is a matter of only a few days.' ' " 41'' Desperate resistance by the Rou manians can only delay occupation of the capital city. To an observer of this great Ger man achievement In Roumania, the goal of offensive tn the ' movement now approaching Its climax, Is not Bucharest alone. ' ' Germany's object la first to des troy the Roumanian army, prepara tory to a march toward Russia, with perhaps Odessa as the ftnal goal. All officers here believe that the present operations la Roumania are only the beginning of a Jtlgantle op eration by Field Marshal von Hind enburg In the eastern, Instead of the western theater of war, designed to bring the decision In the war to this field. The desperate efforts which Rou mania la making to crush the Ger man steamroller offensive by strik ing toward the Danube can only de lay the occupation of Bucharest d the' Teutons and result In further weakening of the Roumanian forces, officers declsre. ' - The greater part of the Rouman ian army Is wholly demoralized. Swift advances by Field Marshal von Mackensen and General von Falken hayn cut Roumania Into three parts. Today's operatlona are expected to sew up three holes, forcing the Rou manians either to defend Bucharest from the north or evacuate their capital. j. To one who, for the past ten days, has followed the advancing German troops by automobile over 1,200 miles through Craiova, Alexandria, Slatlna and Pltescl, Bucharest la not the sole obJec of the Germso of fensive. To such an observer, Ger many's object "Is destruction of ss "much qf the Roumanian army as IIUPBIUIV, M r,l J U m.miim ... j ward Russia perhaps with Odessa j as the final goal. The German operations are mov ing forward here on a gigantic scale. For miles over Roumanla's roads, thousands of columns pasa tn a cease less moving picture. Beside these advancing columns, are wagon trains of desperate looking refugees and In the villages, packed with troop, are Roumanian army prisoners. , Desperation of the' Roumanian army stall in Its efforts to mobilize all possible forces against the Ger man advance was evidenced here to day, when a force of landatrum troops clad In civilian clothes snd ME.CEWEAK ;EOCHRISTHAS No man's Christmas is complete without a Christmas Tie !
