❖ TRUST IN JOFFREI *
<• - ❖
The London View.
There is unpleasant news from
Russia. And more is to follow. The
Russians* fortresses have failed to
stem the German advance, and al
though Russia must have a larger
army than Germany now’ she is un
able to hold the Germans permanent
ly. One strategic line after another
has fallen, and it is not outside the
bounds of possibility that the Russian
armies ultimately may be based on
Moscow and that the Germans may
, cut off Petrograd from the rest of
Russia. There is also the fear that
a German move in the south may
menace Odessa.
Russia has fought magnificently,
but even w ith the advantage of super
j t i
ior numbers she has to admit defeat
because of inferior technique, infer
ior ec.uipment, and inferior resources.
! In short, Russia was not fully pre
pared for war, and Germany was.
Germany knew that Russia w'as not
fully prepared, and she struck the
below in this knowledge.
But still there is no need for pessi
j mism. It is not nice, of course, for
the Russians to fall back, lay waste
their own land, and fight rearguard
actions. All the prophets are wrong
who said that our brave Allies w'ould
make a stand on this front or that
from. No one knowrs where the Rus
sians will make a final stand, but
Russia is such an immense country
and the Russians such a stubborn peo
ple that stands could be made for the
next ten years or so, and the Germans
would have to trail hundreds of miles
beyoml it in the hopeless task of sur
rounding the Russians.
The continued retreat of the Rus
sians does not beat Germany, how
ever, although it weakens her consid
erably. It would be better for us if
the Russians were now' on their way
to Berlin instead of gravitating to
wards Moscow. An army in retreat
does not take the shortest route to
| victory, though in the long run the re
j treat of the Russians will have a pro
1 found effect on Germany.
In the meantime we must examine
our work on the Western front, for
it is obvious that the war will not be
quiojdy ended if one Ally retreats
j and the other sits tight in his
trenches. The situation, gloomy as it
looks to some people, only serves to
bring out the greatness of Joffre.
Who w'ould have imagined a
Frenchman remaining motionless
whilst his ally was being hard press
ed ? Who can ever give full credit to
Joffre for his self-control during those
tragic weeks since Warsaw' was
threatened and Russians called out
for help? How’ the whole French na
tion must have strained at the leash,
fired with the chivalrous desire of
falling on the enemy in the West so
as to relieve the pressure on Russia!
But Joffre did not move, and the
French soldiers with grand devotion
loyally trusted their leader. Russia
w’ent through her agony of retreat,
fighting desperately and taking heavy
toll of tho Germans. The retreat may
go on until Brest falls, until Petro
grad is masked, until the Russian
armies are split up into tw’o or three
groups ever grimly retiring. The
spirt of Russia will not be crushed.
Winter and the evergnow'ing length
of communication w'ill add to the
German troubles, and even if the
enemy succeeds in isolating the Rus
sians and pinning them dow’n by en
trenched positions the end will not be
achieved.
Joffre’s task will be bigger, how’
ever. And his task is our task. If
Russia be held up by rivers and en
trenchments from a big forward move
we can only get out of the stalemate
by an offensive movement in the west.
Joffre is the man for it, and no mat
ter w’hat new’s comes from Russia wre
can keep our trust in Joffre and in the
Allied Armies which now oppose Ger
many in the West. France, Britain,
and Italy, aided by developments in
the Balkans, will assuredly break
down the enemy. Keep your eye on
Joffre. He is the big man of this
war. At the right moment he will
strike.—(London Daily Sketch.)

inside Alaska are now anxious to get
