A "GERMAN SUCCESS" is tho designation of the Ger J- -man retreat along the French front by the inspired Lokal Anzeiger of Berlin. AVe are soberly told that it demonstrates the "power of Aon liindenburg's personal ity" and is a tribute to his "grand style of initiative" which gives "joy to every German heart." Why then is Berlin not celebrating this victory of im- puuueruuie genius as oilier victories have been celebrat ed? At least a few more nails ought to be driven into the wooden statue of Germany's white haired boy to com memorate such a stupendous success, and a few more iron crosses awarded the destroyers of shade trees and libra ries along Avith those bestowed for sinking unarmed a-iuiurivuii snips. There is another cause for oolebriifinn owln tlm no terly strategical victory won by the Turks when the Brit ish captured Bagdad and the Russians Kermanshan. Per haps the celebration is delayed to await the impending .uymiv vx uuruaaium uy me urrcisn anu an these victories win ue celebrated together by the blonde supermen. i ne truth ot the matter, so artistically colored, is that the German retreat was forced by the complete destruc tion of their lines by the artillery of their enemies, and the absence of physical conditions making another line of de fense possible until the hilly country further east was readied. It is an indication that at last the allied forces nave superiority in artillery, munitions and men. The Teutonc withdrawal is the first sign of real dis tress displayed by the Germans. They are forced to short en tneir lines because ot a shortaire of men. Tim wr r.F attrition has thinned their ranks and there are no more re serves to take the place of the slaughtered. The prepon derance of artillery has passed to the allies. The blockade has cut down the manufacture of munitions in Germany by cutting oil the essentials. If the Russians are able to accomrilisli results in tim,,. expected summer campaign, the lines on the east must also be materially shortened. German vetmnts the order of the day thus carrying out belatedly the scheme proposed by Falkenhayn last autumn. Yet Palkenhayil was rewarded for his suggestion by retirement and Von Hin denburg lauded as victor for belatedly carrying out his predecessors plans. The German retreat is the same kind of victory that the Russian's "masterly strategical i-eh-nut" a same kind that the initial German retreat from Paris' was the same brand of success that crowned the Crown Prince's long battle of Verdun. Jiut while German hearts may dutifully ring with joy is they are told to by the kaiser's newspaper organ, there s no doubt at all about the jubliation of the British and trench. For nearly three vcars tliov luivo fmio-ii -!, battle without success and for the first spired with the glow of victory. German prestitre of suc cess has been shattered and the hitherto invincible Ger man ranks have been forced to flee.
