1 KNEW OF HUE YEARS OF - WORLD WIDE WARFAU •• DARK YEAR FOR ALLIES Opening With Magnificent Promiae the Twelve Month Period Enda d • With No Hof>e smiled—Allied Outlook la Getting Brighter After Period of Eclipae. The third year of the world war closes with the fortunes of conflict favoring the Entente, except for un certainty as to the outcome of the Russian situation. The Central Powers sustained mo- raentods setbacks, both militaft' and political, during the twelve months. Meanwhile new enemy powers, no tably the United States, have been drawn in by the Central Empires and progress toward the achievement of tjie utimate aim of the Entente and its Allies has been furthered by political disturbance which will re main memorable in the history of all times. ' Chief among these are the fall of two crowned heads—Nicholas of Russia and Constantine of Greece.

Canadians played a historic partjn this fighting. Moncy-le-Prsux was taken; and Vimy Ridge was captured after one of the world's bloodiest battles. Canadians held the ridge against desperate counter attacks. This success east of Arras turned Hlndenberg’s northern pivot, and British critics regarded it as the greatest in the history of British arms in the present war. This offen sive, continued, placed the British astride the Hindenbdrg line, and the Germans retired to positions a mile or two west of the Drocourt-Queant line. These they held as the third year closed. Meanwhile the battles of Cham paign and the Aisne had been carried on by the French, who in April cap tured Auberive. In the first days of Champaign offensive, one of the greatest ‘struggles of the war, the Germans sustained an estimated loss of 100,000 killed, wounded and taken prisoners through their desperate de fensive operations. Fighting in these regions continues after three months during which the French have ad vanced along a 50-mile front. The present French line runs from north west of Soissons. through Rhelms to Auberive. In June. 1917, the British began an attack on Messines and Wysrhacta in an effort to straighten out the Ypres salient. Again British flyers dominated the air. The British had spent an entire year mining the earth for this offensive, which was begun with an explosion so terrific that it was heard In London Beyond Me* sines for two miles east and north east. ths British won and ronsolida’ ed ground raptared mors than 7.401 prisoners and grunt atoms of artil lery Gaining every ob;*rt|vu, they placed themselves a»trtds,tbe Yprss romtasa t’aaal. having advance*' three miles on an eight*mils front portsgseas sad Belgian troops aided la thin offeaslve la rsuuat days ths fight lag there had EFFORT IN PARLIAMENT FAILS TO CAUSE A RIPPLE Every man within ths conscription ags who can pass ths conscription examination faces military terries in ths Immediate future.

But the war chiefs are not going in as if it were a one-blow fight. Two statements of the last fe wdays make this clear.

Fighting on the western front dur ing the third year of the war may roughly he divided into six phases— two in the latter part of 1916 before winter called a halt, and four after the Entente defensive war resumed in the early spring. At the close of the second year the Germans were still unwilling to concede failure in the operations cen tered on Verdun. After August 3, 1916, the French gained the ascen dancy. culminating in the retaking of Douai, Thiaumont and Fort Vaux, with thousands of prisoners and many guns. By November the French had once more come into possession of the complete Circle of the Verdun defenses. The second phase dates back to the commencement of the Franco- British offensive—the first battle of the Somme—in July of 1916. By mid-September this had reached such proportions that the Germans were credited with bringing up seven new divisions-against the British and five - against the French. It whs estimated that 38 German divisions, or, based on the strength of those Germatf un its at that period,, about 760,000 men, opposed the British and French on this twenty-mile front. In this battle the British air supremacy be came dominant... By November the Eroxich. -had--tek«it St Pierre-hit ion.

Brzezany. Halicz, Tarnopol, Stan islao and Kalomea were lost, togeth er with all the remaining ground gained during the offensive. • The Russians surrendered many prison ers, heavy guns and an abundance of supplies and ammunition. The death penalty was invoked as a check to further insubordinations and the provisional government introduced a policy pf “blood and iron” in an ef fort to avert disaster. South of the Carpathians and in the Vilna region there was little dis affection among the Russian troops. Italy's Work. .Italy, declaring war against Ger many on August 28, began a more vigorouo prosecution of her earlier the present juncture and the convic lion was voiced in an important statement by Herbert H. Asquith, the former premier, that nothing was to be hoped from the present temper of the Gorman reichstag and people. Mr. Macdonald, as shown by the vote, found very few supporters George James Madle, In behalf of the !«abor party, declined to have anything to do with this pacifist resolution.

Japan soon will he a potent fnetor In the war on the Russian front. This was Indicated In official Japa nese diplomatic circles here today. Japan, long maintaining a “watchful waiting" attitude, has decided to throw her power In the balance. Al ready, it is believed, Japanese traB!>s are on their way to Russia to folp Kerensky in strengthening the Gallc- an defenses. W«ek» ago it was indicated in the nlernational News Service dispatch es that Japan would take & promi nent part in the war, but pledges of secrecy we^e exacted frojn all who knew’ pf them. The fact that the plans contemplated sending troops to tussia and that the ban of secrecy ias now been lifted, indicates to En tente diplomats that the troops prob ably are already on Russian soil. Japan has been doing her “bit" 'or months by sending munitions to Russia, but the constant stream of shells and guns went unnoticed by' the public because the few.who knew were pledged to secrecy. The large Imports of gold from the United Sta tes to Japan which caused much comment here several months ago, and resulted in various evasive ans wers from the treasury department, are explained by the huge amounts of material bought by the Japanese and later turned Into munitions for the Rueslans. Japan had.a huge trade balance with the United States and she was using It up. Now the purchaeee have exceeded the balanc es. and aatomntlcally the gold ship ments have dropped off.

There are about 90,000 physicians in the country of military age and fully 24,000 will be needed for war service, perhaps more. . They will be mobilized through a selective system.
