I Turkey is out of the war and Ger,: many's remaining ally, Austria-Hun' gary, badly defeated on the field o! 11 battle, her battle line rent in twain ,: and with chaos reigning inside her (, borders, is pleading for an armistice. | Thus far, her importunities have rei ceived no better answer than the re. j doubling of the efforts of the allies i to crush utterly her warriors. The capitulation of Turkey is be lieved to have been an unconditional . j one. The victories of the allied forces over the Austro-Hungarians | threaten to send what remains of the enemy armies reeling back to their* . border line shattered and completely VclUVlUl&UCU. j More than 50, 00 prisoners have been taken by the Italians, British, , French, American and Czecho-Sloval: . forces, and everywhere from the : mountain region to the plains of 'Venetia the enemy is being sorely . T? tlio mniinfainc whprp St.lff resistance had been offered to keep the foe from entering the back do'#u ; of Austria, the enemy's front 1 cracking under the violence of the attacks and important strategic po1! sitions are being lost. To the east of the Paive the allies have driven . in a sharp wedge to the northeast of i Belluno, some - 20 miles from their ; original points of departure, and ; severed connection betwen the armi ies in the north and those of the i Venetian plains. Over the plains leading towards the ' Austrian frontier at the Isonzo river, the invaders everywhere are in full flight with the allied troops pressing ! them hard. Here the debacle seems ; to be complete. The enemy in his | flight is leaving behind large num 1 bers of guns and great quantities of 1 war stores, as lie endeavors to reach the passages over the Tagliamento river. It seems not improbable that on the plains and in the region east and west of Belleuno large numbers of the'enemy are destined to be captured. j j On the Western battle front there ! is still little fighting of a violent character, but the intensive opera. tions of airmen seems to presage an earlv return of battles of major im ' portance. In Belgium both the British and the Belgian troops have made slight gains, while the French on tli?? southern part of the line in France have advanced their line and taken prisoners. Aside from reciprocal artillery du^ls and continued aerial raids by the Americans and Germans tlie American sectors east and west of the Meuse have been comparatively quiet. I In the Serbian theatre the AustroHungarian eastern army has succeeded in outdistancing the Serbians and reaching their home territory across the Danube. In Mesopotamia the Turkish army, which for so long held up the British in their attempts to proceed up the Tigris river, which lately has been suffering severe defeats. has surrendered in its entriety Supplies r the Camp will j : the Book Store z of Safety Razigs and Brushes, I d Trench Mirrors, Stationery and cles. i & Variety Store Thousand Things, ivings Stamps | | to the Bitish commander. Through the defection of Turkey < ; the plight of the Teutonic alliance be- i comes a critical one. The gateway jc to the eastern boundaries of Germany ! and Hungary is opened by way ofj the Dardanelles and the Eospori's j and dou{Dtlej>s shortly allied fleets ; I will invade the Black Sea and begin j ! operations in this heretofore unat- j tainahle rezion. Such warships a^; I the Germans have afloat in the Black j Sea, including the Russian Black :Sea i fleet, will prove no barrier to the mighty floating fortresses the entente can impose against them. j Shattered little iRoumania by the j collapse of Turkey again is likely I soon to be inside the entente fold and aiding in the operations asrainst the nations which crushed her. Likewise the armistice which lets TurKey out of the war is a menace to the enemy in Russia, and is likely to prove of the greatest value in quickening a return of normal conditions in that coutry. 1 U.
