BY DARING FEAT
WITH TUB AMERICAN KOUCKS
ON TIIK MAItNi:, Monday, Juno 17. 1
(By tho Associated Press). Second
Lleutonant John T. Missel of Pitls
uurg has been recommended for the
French Legion of honor for distin
guished gallanlry displayed recontly
at Chateau Thierry.
The story of his conduct offers a
thrilling examplo of an officer's dis
regard for his own life In order that
tho men under his command mlKht
reuch safety. It was on Jmie second
thut Lieutenant lllssell with a party
of ton machine gunners was thrown
In to help stom the Corman advance.
Tho party was ordered into' Cha
teau Thlorry where they crossed to
the north bank of tho Maine and sol
up their guns In tho streets behind
whatever protection thoy could gather,'-
hoxos, tables nnd stonos. Tho
town was drenched with shells, but
the Americans held out until tho Ger
mans finally rushed tho town and
dome of the enemy crossed a briilgo
to tho southern side of the river to
one slilo of lllssol's position. Tho
brldgo was then blown up.
Moauwhlle American nnd French
machine gunners on tho southern
bank of tho .Maine began a flro thut
swept tho second bridge, Lieutenant
tinsel's only avenue or escupo. The
lieutenant saw tho situation. Ho left
his men In a placo of comparative
sufoty, wont out to tho north end of
tho orldgo and facing a hull of ma
chine gun bullets, got Into n position
whero tho gunners'on tho south side
of tho river could sen him.
liiillols sang around lilm until the
Americans and Prcm-h on tlio other
Hide saw Hint it w as an American who
dared to show himself. Wheil the
firing censed. Lieutenant llissel re
turned to tho placo where ho had left

THE AUSTRIAN DRIVE.
A USTRO-I I UXO.VRTAX
men, are making the
against the ltajian front so
great sueeess. Tho Italian
Cioneral Foeh, commander - in
ped the (lernian-Auslrian
saved Italy. With the Italians are French" and British
forces nnd probably American forces will be added to
strengthen the Italian morale:
For many centuries, the Italians have not been fight
ers. In the old Roman days they got into the habit of
hiring their fighting done for them and Italians have
not been distinguished for combative ability. The race
is artistic, and emotional rather than aggressive. They
excel in the spectacular, such as Alpine lighting and in
aerial work, but the success of the Aiustro-dcrmau drive
showed that they are lacking in the fighting tradition.
Earlier in tho war, when they faced but a portion of the
Aiistro-lliiugarian troops, many of whom sympathized
with the Italians, thoy were successful. It is, however, de
feat which tests Hit: morale of an army and defeat has
strengthened the Italian morale.
This drive is on two fronts the Tretino or mountain
front and along Ike Piave. IJack of the Piave there arc
three rivers which form natural barriers to a Teuton ad
vance. The first is the liivnta, from 20 to 30 miles from
the Piave. With no great military sacrifice the Italians
could fall. back to this line if they were driven from the
Piave. It would, however, involve the fall of Venice,
which would prove a great blow to the civilization of the
world, although from a military viewpoint it would not
seriously impair the situation.
1 lie second defense line
Adige, which is probably Italy's strongest position.
Jsesides tlie Adige is
nearly as formidable as a line of defense as the Adige. To
fall back thus far, however, would compel the Italians to
evacuate the whole of the plains of northern Italy.
'I he Austrian drive Irom
tive the cutting of the principal life-line of the Italian
armies the railroad from Milan to Vicenza. The distri
bution of munitions, and supplies to the front depends
on this road with its subsidiaries.
The capture of this line
as an advance along the Piave front, with the expenditure
of smaller forces and less severe losses by the enemy it
would force the Italians to fall
River Po. It was along this
stroyed two Austrian armies
in Jtaly.
I he (icrnian propaganda
of the Italian army last year has been largely overcome
through the work of the French and Pritish. The Italian
army is equal in numbers to the Austrians, and even with
(iermaii and Turkish troops in the line, it is not likely that
tlie I eiitons have overcome tlie preponderance of numbers.
The Italian artillery likewise is superior in caliber and
quantity to the Austrian. An Austro-Cernian drive on
this front, therefore, is not likely to gain for the. Teutons
any more tnan did tlieir advances on tlie western Iront,
which brought principally inordately large casualty lists.
Tho drive is largely for its political effect. A great vic
tory seems essential to keep the discordant nationalities
of Austria, now on the point of revolt, united and even a
great success, unless coupled with decisive German vic
tory on the western front will only temporarily delay the
disruption oft he dual empire.
An army whose soldiers fight unwilling, as the Slav
troops of Austria are fighting, and who for fear of deser
tion, have to be sandwiched in between loyal troops, do not
wage a war of conquest at w behest of a tyrant to ag
grandize a foreign nation, with the same fighting vim and
spirit that defenders of a native country do, despite the
lack of fighting tradition.

AMSTERDAM, June 18. The war
h not n matter of strategic campaign
hut a struggle of two world views
wrestling with one another, Emperor
William declared on Saturday at the
celehration of tho anniversary of his
ascension at German main headquer
tcrs, "Either German principles of right,
freedom, honor nnd morality must be
upheld, he added, "or Anglo-Saxon
principles with their idolatry of
mammon will be victorious.
The AnIo-Saxons he asserted,
aimed at making the peoples of the
vorhl work as slaves for the Anglo
Saxon ruling race and such a matter
ct.uld not ho decided in daws or weeks
or oven in a year.
The emperor emphasized the fact
that from the first he had realized
that the trials of the war would he
great. The first outbreak of enthus
iasm had not deceived him. Great
Brilnin's intervention had meant a
world struggle whether ho desired it
or not.
lie said he was thankful that Field
Marshal Von I limlonhurg and General
Ludetidorff had been placed at his
side as counsellors. Drinking to the
health of the army and its leaders,
the emperor said :
"The German people and army in
ured are now one and the same and
liok up to yo" with gratitude. Every
man out tlfere knows what be is fight
ing for, the enemy himself admits,
that, and in consequence we shall
gain victory the victory of tho Ger
man standpoint. That is what is in
question."
