" DEADLOCK ? BY, WINTER
XURICH. Oct. If, The military critic of
' the Js'ew JSirkh Oasette, who has proved a
hrewd commBUtor, predicts the world
L war will M next summer vrllh a com-
!- promise Mww th AfcHu and the Central
. Power. H :
There la no possibility1 that one ktoud
C the bellliterent powers or the other will
crushed. On the western front the Ger
man line will not break, and It Is even
i doubtful whether they can be pushed back
to the frontier. So far the powerful of.
fenslve of the Allies has netted but small
, result.
c "With enormous sacrifices In mon and
f munitions, the Brtlh and French troops
' mv reconquered some ninety or ono hun-
11 lrdnllh wjuare miles of territory and
', a, Mtrtnetr Pf vlllase. but the tactical and
atratesloai advantages sained by them are
almost nil
BntTAIN-S GIGANTIC TASK
"If they" have an unlimited supply of am
munition and millions of reserves they may
continue their progress for some time, but
It well may be doubted that Kntfand Villi
pay the enormous cost In men To clenr
France of th Hermans Is Imposilblo with
out loss of from three to four million men.
and the glirantlc army which will have to
be sacrificed must bo,Xurnlihtd by England,
because Franc has almost exhausted her
resenes.
"The Germans, of course, also wilt have
; large losses, but the advantage still re-
': mains on their side If their lines are not
broken. Should they really be compelled to
withdraw from French soil they will havo
not only their own Immenetly strong fron
' tier fortresses, but also the Belgian bul
I warks of Antwerp, Liege and Xamur, which
. can be held with comparatively small forces
tor a long time.
"In the East the prospects of tile Allies
are no better. The Itusslans, desplto their
successes, are still hemmed In between the
Prlpet marshes and the Carpathian Moun
tains, and will exhaust themselves If they
continue their efforts to reach Lembcrg
much longer. The lines of the Teutons In
Volhynla and Gallcla have been greatly
strengthened, and their defenso will surely
turn Into an offenslvo as soon as the col
Hpso of the Russians becomes evident.
ALLIES' SOLE HOPE IN BALKANS
"The solo hope of the Allies at the present
time seems to rest on a possible victory In
tho Balkans, but even there their chances
re not bright Rumania, Instead of being
an aid to them. Is already In a sad plight
and can oily be saved from utter defeat by
the assistance of Russia.
"In Macedonia the British French-Serb-lan-Russlan-Itnllan
offensive Is still In Its
Initial stage. The successes of the Allies on
this front are confined to their western
wing, where thoy hae mado some grogress.
Monastlr may fall Into their hands, but even
then they will still bo far from their ob
jectlve,' the Oriental Ilallroad. To Isolato
Bulgaria and Turkey from the Central
Towers they will have to cross tho Balkan
Mountains, which will soon be covered with
snow and Impassable.
"As things stand now a new dcndlock
may be expected on all frpnts with the be-
ginning of the winter. This pause will be
used by tho Allies to store up mountains
of shells and to strengthen their artillery
mill further for the final "big drle." which
may begin early next sprint:. If this great
est effort also falls to crush the Oermans
r and their Allies peace will come. Tho war
. will then and. In a draw,"

"I am convinced that War Secre

"Tho peace to which the whole

must safeguard itself against at

must create in Europe such condi

Germany to resume her criminal dt

Rather than accept a pcaco contam

ROME. Oct 10. The weight of the Itat
Ian attacks waa transferred yesterday from
the Carso to the Trentlno front where the
Austrian were forced to give way, the War

The Italians, while continuing their bom
bardment of the Austrian lines on the Carso
plateau, preparatory to a renewal of the
drive for Trieste, are gorously pressing
the fight In the Trentlno.
After rolling back an enemy assault on
the slopes of Monto Pasublo, Berssgllerl
and Alpine troops counter-charged with
such ferocity that they swept the Austrlans
back toward Monte Rotte. In the region of
Cosmagnon an entire battery of Austrian
guns was seised, seriously crippling the
enemy's defense.
Cadorna, It Is belleed here, Is awaiting
reinforcements before launching another at
U;k on the enemy's lines In the Gorilla
Rector and against the defenses of the road
to Trlesto. The Austrlans are In none too
strong force here, but they hae constructed
an elaborate system of defenses that the
Italians are finding It difficult to pierce.

The Stroud Pianola at $550 gives you a player
piano with all the patented Aeolian features. This
instrument contains not only the Themodist, but even
the world-famous Metrostyle patent, which invention
has caused such eminent critics as Paderewski and
Rosenthal to pronounce the Pianola as "the best, un
surpassable, supreme."
In all, 312 patents protect the Pianola from imita
tion, but yet here is a style in the Stroud at a price
much lower than that asked for undeniably artless
imitations. Terms as low as $3 per week will be ac
cepted on the Stroud; and even your piano will be
accepted as part payment.
Remember, in purchasing the Stroud you secure
an instrument made completely by the great Aeolian
Company, the world's largest piano manufacturers.
