Within the next ten days or two weeks, the future ot most of the civil ized world may have Been sex tied on the battle-scarred fields of northern France. It seems an inn-oHihl itatement.

Sine they are Increasingly convinced that s German break-through It defi nitely probable, one can only pray that they may b wrong again. If there la a eerlous break-through, the next atep will be an offer of separate peace to rranea.

It Is thought that they used all, or at least all but on of their mechanized divis ions, and these wer badly battered. It la also thought that they used moet of their existing alrnfprce, of But even the bravery of desperate men may not be enough to turn tta ecale, which la weighted, against the allies by three heavy factora. (1) Aside from any possible air and mechanized reserve, th Germane jktve about thirty almost completely fresh Infantry dlvlalona. which will be hurled against the French lines when tht break-through effort cornea. The French and British troop ire already exhausted by on great bat tle, and the forty division which would normally constitute the French reserves are occupied on the Italian border, guarding against the threat from Italy.
