by the reports all these attempts ve

The New Year criticisms; or si ng

reintar$ critics, were of the mast t-
_ireistic character. It was the gene al-
ly expressed opinion of tall that he
prospects *for the Allies are very re fi

it was admitted that the( German ad
n:ade- many spectacular attacks nd
won 1rech territory that In a, ry
point of view they are not nearl
as good a. position' as they ever
year ago. They 'have reached, the
ith of their achievements and:.stren.i
and they Trust now- recede., e w, Ile
the arore territory -they held tile In re
difficalt their task b4. While this
Is the case with the Germs, " he
Allies are said to have /vastly , rr-
.`proved •their strength ,both in en
arc munitions and are now in a ch
• better position for effective work t an
theyt were a year ago and thaLin he
rature of things their condition -Ill
improve. The expectation Is that t-
ivities during the winter will rex in
abut as. they have been. Both part es
-will.thoshand their resources ai

itt Is hoped and expected that by tr.,d-

they can drive the Gerrreens oet !Of
•France and Flanders and force' m
back to their' own territory. But aal to
whether they will foikiw there furt er
is w•atter for future coasiderati. n.
It its expected that aS soon as c
