SHELVED BY NEW
RAPIDTANK USE
Italian Maneuvers Show No
Time for Digging in When
Fighting Is Forced by
Swiftly Moving Forces
By Audrue Berdlng.
Associated Press Foreign Staff.
ROME, Aug. 29. (AP) Italian
military authorities, calculating the
yiesnlU of th recent army maneuv
ers, declared today that trench war
tare was absolete.
This conclusion, they said, results
from their observations of the new
rapidity In troop movements due
partly to the greatly Increased use
of tanks.
They declared the first 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 so rapid that there would be
no opportunity to dig trenches nor
would there be anything gained by
discing them.
Contrasting the 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 came
up against machine gun fire. The
opposing forces then counter-attack
ed on the basis of the Inverted V
and forced the original attackers'
retirement.
V In the eventual war, the Italian
expert said, the attacking forces,
after breaking through their enemy'B
lines, will not entrench but will con
tinue to push forward with tanks
Consequently, the eventual war will
be with the opposing forces moving
back and forth much more rapidly
over the battle territory with their
gains and losses aground much more
considerable.
The experts said they also expect
ed to fight the eventual war with
much fewer men at the front, one
reason being a greater use of mech
anical weapons and another the dif
ficulty of maintaining a service of
supplies owing to enemy aircraft.
LONDON, Aug. 29. (AP) An In-
creasing conviction that another war
In Europe would be more open and
mechanized than conflicts of the
past has resulted In the creation
this summer of Great Britain's first
permanent tank brigade.
Explaining this Important trans
formation within the army, a war
office spokesman asserted that state
ment that "trench warfare has end
Led" are a matter of opinion. But
the value of tanks is now firmly es
tablished, he added.
Plan M a Factor.
The ability of a large sized tank
force to make an effective move of
100 miles within 24 hours Is no long
er disputed, he said. But an 1m
portant issue, he said. Is the ques
tlon of how much airplanes can In
terfere with the usefulness of tanks.
Unofficial reports said that in ma
neuvers on the Wiltshire plains last
week aviators found it difficult to
keep sight of the tanks once they
had deployed over the wooden countryside.

PARIS, Aug. 29.-(AP The French
general staff agreed today with some
of the announced conclusions of
Italian military experts regarding the
"eventual war," but French military
men said trenches still were likely to
play a vital role In warfare.
They aald the old stalemate of
trench warfare will be radically af
fected by the speed of highly me
chanized modern armies but that
whatever future warfare may hold,
they themselves, the French, still
pin their faith to a fortified trench
ystem.
They speak of the one that cost
1100,000,000 to dig on the German
border as powerful enough to hold
back the first shock of an attack and
give time to mobilize an army.
French military men hold that
the Infantry Is still the backbone
of an army and, as long as It re
mains so, trenches, whether held for
an hour or a year will still be dug
for shelter.
PORTLAND. Aug. 29. (AP) Mrs.
Herbert S. Brlx, who left a note
blaming "another woman," mirrowly
missed three pedestrians as she
plunged to death from the sixth
story of a downtown hotel here today.
Identification was made through
the suicide note In the hotel room
and through a liquor permit.
The note said:
"My husband and another woman
are responsible for this act. I know
who she is and I hope her soul rests
In hell. May God forgive them."

Striking evidence of the value of
the 3-0 safety program la found In
the report of the Rock Gulch fire near
