C? pu the Germans lost so many men that they cannot afford to risk a further at tempt to destroy the allied military strength? ' ' If the Germans still believe' that they can score a derisive victory, It would not be logical for them to sp ply their main efforts In the direc tlon of Paris. The capture of Paris would not end the war. It Is more likely that they would attempt to destroy the British force In the north and capture yie channel ports. This would enable them to use the Eng lish channel for their submarines nd force the English to transport troops and supplies to the western coast of France, where the submar ines could more easily attack them. as well as American transports. If they still believe In a German victory we might also expect them to risk a general naval battle with the allied fleets. Obviously, to be victorious In the west, they must keep American and British supplies from the French coast by the use of submarines or the German battle fleet. If, however, they do not atmpt either to capture the Channel ports or vanquish the British navy this summer, It may logically be concluded that the kaiser o longer expects to destroy the al lied armies in the west, and will at tempt to continue In favor with the German people by annexing new ter ritory in Russia after a successful defensive until the end of the war. meanwhile satisfying the popular de mand for military victories by minor . successes In Italy, the Balkans or on the Russian front.

This wtll prove as difficult as the fight- Ins In Franco will be severe. It would seem that the time has come to declare war upon the Bol- shevlkl. Tho Bolshevlkl authorities have been assisting Germany to gain control of banks and trading corpor ations in Russia, and apparently In an underhanded way are cooperating with the German army to prostrate Russia under the kaiser's heel. The ambassadors of the allied govern ments In Russia hive been aware of this condition during the past year, and the fact that they have fled from central Russia to a port of refuge In tho north indlcatea that the Ger man grip on Russian affairs has en tirely destroyed the Bolshevlkl gov ernment's position as a neutral pow er and that the Bolshevlkl execu tives' pro-German acts have become notoriously flagrant. travel over graded highways, dirt roads, plank roads, corduroy, and macadam; soma stretches ar good for SO to S3 miles an hour, while others are to rough for a flce-mlle speed.
