Milan, June 25.
Fragmentary details only have
reached hero at present about the Alls,
trlan defeat. Preparations for retreat
bejond the Plave were discovered by
Italian raiders In tho enemy lines In
the early hour of Sundiv mornlns
Instantly the Italian artillery began
a furious bombardment against the
passages across the river.
At dawn General Dits ordered a
series ot infantrj attacks alone; the 1
whole line, and they were pressed vvtth
irresistioie energy uy 11 o'clock
Italian regiments had smashed the
enemy front at Montello, reocctipied
the entire ridge and driven the now be
wildered foe dow n the slopes.
By the water's edge, there and at
other spots where tho fleeing troops
were massed In waiting to get nrrovs
hastily Improvised bridges. Allied avli
tlon squadrons. Including tho ploneei
American corps, raked and pelted their
dense formations incessantly and mer
cilessly with a neT hai! till the pis
Kigewavs were blocked with deid and
wounded and the crimson waters of
the Plave were covered thickly with
wreckage of war. Interspersed with
thousands of bodies
After a short but violent bombardment
had destroved the town of Nervesa It
was recaptured thirlng the afternoon In
a brilliant bajonet chirge Besides re
covering all the guns lot list week, the
Ittllans seized then? a large number of
Austrian cannon intict with their muni
tion stores
Great puhlic rejoicings here greeted to
night's announcement of the disorderly
disastrous retreit of the Austrian armv
across the Plave from the Montello
heights light aw a down to the Venetian
Gulf
Although as 1 remarked in raj Trl
dav dispatch a debarlc of the kind would
not occasion surprise, o rapid a reali
zation was not generallv expected, espe
cially in view of the great leactlon It
was bound to provoke at this Juncture of

conditions of the dual monarchy These

Washington, June 25
Military opinion heie Is tint the
floods which prevented Atistila from
supporting the men he threw acres
the Plavo also will lumper Itnlv in
undei taking a great counter-offensive
The floods -vhlch conti United to Aus
tria's defeat probablv will in the end
save Austria.
None the less, the moral effect of
whit Italy has done will be tremen
dous Hungiv Austria has been told
tint bevond the Piavo lav food and
loot She does not get food and loot.
On tho contraiv, she has lost a hrge
number of men. great military stores
and many cannon Starvation and
laclal dissensions will be felt more
gravely in the hour of defeat. The in
tertnl condition of Austria will be
made worse
The parallel between Russia and
Austria, the weak partner of the Hn
tcnte and tho weak partner of the
Teutonic allies, holds to the point of
the next move When the forced Rus.
sian offensive failed, Clermanv at
tacked and carried the war Into the
heart of Russia until the country cried
for and cot peace
Milltaiy men i-av. now that the
forced Austria offensive has failed,
Austria should be attacked and the
war carried Into her territory until
that weak and totterins monarchy is
put out of action.
There Is a strong sentiment in the
United States army in favor of attack
ing Austria. With this sentiment Gen
eral March ma or mav not be in
accoi d General Foch's v lew, and it
will be llkeb to control, is not publlclv
known But below the highest rank
tho strateg of striking Austria finds
Kcneral favor, for the verv same ieu
hon that Germanv a jear ago elected
to strike at and knock out Russia
Opinion is not agreed as to the best
way of attacking Austria. Obstacles
lie In the wav of bach plan of attack In
tho shape of long and difficult com
munications and the lack of shipping
Moreover, eveij one wants to feel se
cure about the West front to know
that the Knglish, Trench and Amer
ican forces there will be able to hold
before attacking elsewhere.
Tho West front Is, as it aluaj.s has
been, civilization's line of defense. The
West front strategy and psychology
are primarily defensive The nations
fighting there mean to win if they
could, but first ot all to protect theli
own homes, their lines of communica
tion, theli capacity for joint action,
their Paris and their Channel ports.
Until tills country enters the war with
4 000,000 or 5,000 000 men this war will
be a defensive war. When, as a whole,
tho Allies and this country resume the
offensive, then it must have been de
cided whether or not a blow struck int
the vitals or along tne flank of Austria
would be the most effective.

The common opinion of American

that the Danubian front, as it Is gen

Initial difficulties of transport and of

There is much more support In army

co-operating with Japan in reaching

divisions of American troops should at

A quicker way to reach Russia and

opinion In the east is bv striking north

coast of Austria itself, in co-operation
with Italv, or from Salonica
A force of Japanese entering by way
of Siberia might co-operate with the
Americans acting in the Balkans If
Japan should be willing to undertake a
mllltar operation on such a scale, and
if an agreement iould be readied re

main task of reconstituting the cast

the weakness of Austria will fall upon

The Hague, June 2t
The 'Russianizing' of America Is the
subject of an article in the Weser Zei
tung. The paper has already expressed
Its indignation at the prohibition of the
German language In some ot tho Amer
ican public schools, but now remark 1
that, according to the New York Times
of Mav 10, the Union League Club has
passed resolutions against Instruct'on In
German in all the public schools of
Amcilea and has expressed the wish
that all German papers should be for
bidden 'lhe Zcitung scoffs at tho reason given,

II.
t lined some understanding of the rrall
ties and consequences which, it alleges,
audi steps would entail
If lnphenated German-Americans
have not had courage enough to protest
against the war and Wllson' policy,
s ijs the paper, their patience has limits
11 continues that up to the present tlm
110 news has been received bv cable eon
Arming these reports, but comments that
America was known before the war as
the lard of the free. )
Are the members of such big political
clubs, who possers a certain amount of
political and historical knowledge aware,
the Zeitung asks, of the odium which
such a measure would bring on Amer
ica, and do thev not understand that
they would be bringing America down
to thp level of 'Russia? America, the
paper proceeds, is not menaced by a
German inxaslon and there aro no fears
of a German rising. It suvs that Ameri
cans are too badly informed to know
that French papers still appear undr
gunfire near Belfort, Lunevlllo and
Nancv, in despotic military, reactionary
Germany, even In wartime, and that the
Trench papers in Alsace-Lorraine did
much work in peace.
The Zeitung sajs tiwt America can
obtain one result by tis measure, as
after the war there will doubtless be a
lepatrlatlon of many Germans and Aus
trlans, by which America will lose her
best and mot conscientious and Intelli
gent laborers if thev know their own
country. It adds, they will l'now that
America has not so nianj advantages to
ofTer. The paper savs that America
ones her growing population largely to
emigration from Rurope, but that this
will stop, both for political and economic
1 easons, -after the war.

Death Rains From Air Upon Foe Attempting

By WARD PRICE
Special Cable to Eiening Public Ledger
t opnrloht. MM, by Xew York Time Co.
Italian Headquarters, June 2S I had
the fortune to be fij Ing over tho Austrian
lines on the Plave with an Italian bomo
Ing squadron during the hour which, If
reports be true, inav .prove to have been
the historical turning point of this
great battle
Day after dav, during the Inst week of
warfare, this squadron from Venice has
harried without mercy Austrian divisions,
converging on those foot bridges over
the Plavo which the enemy had hoped
were going to be the wooden threshold
of a great victory
The country around tho lower Plave
mouth was covered with water, but naval
seaplanes were used against the enemy
there They were a gay-looking lot as
they slid out of their sheds onto a long
Inne of water. Ten fast single-seaters
were the escort (hardly necessary. It
seemed, for the Austrian airmen rarely
vcntuio near tho lhies), and In their
midst (lew twenty bombing airplanes
We rose In thundering succession and
circled for height. For a while the
whole circus droned around and arouild
In circles Then we turned across the
flooded Plavo delta toward tho enemy
line.
Inundations Wonderful
I had been up and down that region
often enough In boats, but I never
realized how thoroughly tho ltalans
had done their Inundations last Novem
ber. The whole land, laboriously re
deemed, has been drowned ngaln and
the multicolored mud that the water
has carried everywhere gives it tho ap
pearance of a tinted geological map
Only here and there emerge little forti
fied fractions of dry land
It needed but a few moments to be
over the lines I could pick out an
artillery observation post In which I was
at Cavazuccherlna yesterday, while the
smoke of Bhellbursts showed brightly
against the green clumps of trees
An enemy observation balloon behind
his line was sinking fast into ItB nest.
Three of Its kind went down In flames
vesterday and would wait for no attack
from these Italian hornets
narrate of Aerial Rosebuds
By now tho enem's aerial barrage
had sprung up back ahead ot us a nose.
Kay oi sooiy rosec-uds in the sky.
The enemy wriggled evcrj where,
some persevering a long way and some
straggling to an alimess stop
The foot bridges over the Plave were
plain enough, but what tiny marks to
have been hit so often by the Allied
bombs?
I could see nothing moving a- we
cruised around, nor make out a single
gun emplacement. I suppose It needs a
trained eye to find these things
I knew, however, what the pilot was
looking for. It was cluster of trenches
and huts close to tne Plave, in which
are sheltered some Austrian reserves
He raised his hand to show that wo were
over the place. A jerk of the red bomb
lever, then another.
I bent over tho side to follow them
with my eves, but could not see them
A second later I looked over again and
they were apparent! cvofe together and
falling docilely earthward. It seemed
a long time before a shoot of chocolate
earth told that they nad struck plump
on the edge of a twisting communication
trench.
My pilot dived at once after we
dropped the bombs, to defeat the Aus
trian barrage, which, evidently under
the Imprepslon that we were coming
down, apparently diverted one gun to
accompany us with a fhcll or two on
tho way toward the water.
Italy's rontoona In Tlaee
At ZOO feet he flattened out, and we
flew back toward enlrs. The marsh
was dotted with Italian pen toons mount
ing long gray naval guns.. The pilot
pointed to one and planed toward It.
The crew waved a welcome and at-a
score or two of feet above their deck
the engine burst Into a roar again and
we skimmed on
In this way we visited a lot of lonely
gunnern of the marxii, who have been
marooned for monthn past In their an
chored hulks and are delighted to see
anv thing that moves
Meanwhile, one had lost sight of the
other seaplanes of our company. They
had scattered about their several affairs,
and It was only after landing that we
heard that one was hit In trie patrol
tank by the enemy's barrage and had
to make a forced and rsky landing on
the narrow canal.

"Hooverized"
Hooverized for Business and for Individual Use !
Unusual ?
Of course it is unusual. These are war times, and
they tend toward thrift.
The Hupmobile meets conditions squarely. It is a
lighter car than before, and, therefore, saves tires.
It saves gas, it saves wear and tear on parts, and it
has a new device that we call a heater, which so super
heats the air that it makes your gas do double duty.
No specious arguments are necessary in telling you
aboutithe thrift and economy of the Hupmobile.
Let us demonstrate what the Hupmobile can do.
We will be glad to give yoira road test.
Ability, Comfort, Economy
That's the Hup
