Asserting Austria s armies today Are a Strong Weil organized military Force with a High morale he declared that the present italian drive is not directed against a weakened enemy by t against a Force Superior in num Bers and capable of hard fighting and bitter resistance. The internal disturbances and political disorders of the dual Mon Archy must not be interpreted As meaning a greatly weakened and Dis organized military Force opposing the italian he said. Such an impression is entirely unjustified and will Only do harm if it leads the american Public to expect an Early disorganized and disastrous Retreat of i the Australia s War share. Melbourne Australia oct. Some Conception of what Australia has done in the War and of the losses i sustained by the Commonwealth can be gained from figures which have just been officially issued. Out of a i population of Australia has abroad men. The total i casualties numbered including dead. Recruiting in Australia is now at. The rate of a month. Promoted. Paris oct. Debeney has been promoted to grand officer of the legion of Honor. Transmitted the in Signia with full military honors. The citation accompanying the promotion referred especially to general Debeney s Success in stopping the germans from reach ing Amiens his capture of Mont Didier and the advancing of his ones to the tie new italian offensive which really tie Gran some ten Days Tito. launched in face of Adverse weather conditions and against Strong defensive positions hold by the austrians on the Eastern of the Piave. The main Effort was directed to gaining u foothold East of the Piave Between Val Dob Birdene in t he North and a Point on the River line Between tre and Oder a. Attack was accompanied by a diversion in the mountains West of Monte grappa where the front turns Westward after crossing the Montello plateau j eventually Che artist rians were driven Back and a crossing of the River affected though not without a Des Perate struggle both for the islands in the Piave and for its Eastern Bank. Tile British have clone excellent service in forcing the passage of the River in the neighbourhood of Val Dob Biad ene and have advanced some Dis Tance beyond it. Cone Ivliano has been captured and further South t he italians have advanced More than half my to the River liven a which forms Tihe next one of defence. There Are indications that the Retreat of the austrian is becoming general while there is ample evidence in the captures of prisoners and runs that the initial Success of the allies is of considerable magnitude. The italian Victory comes at a Deli Cate moment in the political develop ment of the Austro hungarian crisis. Revolutionary activity is spreading the politicians Are striving to retain their control of the situation and the emperor is making Concession after Concession in order to prevent Tho collapse of. The political machinery. I Toiv the conflict of racial and j National interests has affected or affect the armies now in rapid re treat before the italians and their i allies it is difficult to determine. Re i Orts tend to show that the armies have been kept of recent political developments. But that now be maintained May be regarded As pro Bat Ole that Vith situation will Tho of the morale of the austrian forces. Had. Trie internal relations of the various racial elements in the dual Mont itchy been Normal the situation into which the hapsburg Empire is being thrust would be difficult if Austria Hungary is to save itself from invasion on at least two of its Borders rapid action is necessary. The French and her Blans Are on the Danube. In a Short time the defence of Belgrade must be under taken or the allies Jwill obtain a Bridgehead on the Northern Bank of the Danube. Invasion of Hungary will then be assured. But with political unrest paralysing the administrations in1 Vienna and Buda Perth adequate preparation against invasion is next to impossible. The revolutionary outbreaks and other places Point towards com plete of the Central authority unless Strong action is immediately taken. Repressive action is. However practically ruled out and it is probably too late to effect conciliation. The Imperial government no longer exists in any effective sense. The acceptance by professor Lamunsch of the premiership of aus Tria argues the genuineness of the austrian proposals for a separate peace. It is Douro thu whether aus Tria Hungary can rally its Defeated Force s to the defence a country in which each faction sees within its grasp the Opportunity to realize a Iange part if not All of its aspirations. The position of the entente towards the demand for an armistice is Clear the previous recognition of the Czecho slovaks and As Independent Peoples makes impossible any action which would pre Judice their claims to the fullest self determination of their future status and condition. That bars All present discussion of Tihe terms upon which the Linal settlement of Central Europe will Ibe carried out. An armistice is obtainable toy Austria and Hungary Only on terms amounting to unconditional surrender. accept Ance of such terms the allies will proceed to. The occupation of the country and the carrying out their to their Bohemian tallies. The offensive will 3-0 on., that of the allies went on until the question of an a. Is settled one Way or the other.

Praises attitude big labor unions have played highly patriotic part in War declares Hon. Of b. Carvell sorry that unsettled condition prevails in certain sections of unions East and West St. John .v.b., oct. Hon. F. A. Carvell. Minister of Public works in the City yesterday was asked the labor situation in Western Canada. He stated that unfortunately a very unsettled Condi Tion seemed to prevail in certain sections of the labor unions not Only i in Western Canada but. In a lesser degree in certain portions of East Ern Canada As Well. He was very emphatic in his belief that . And socialistic propaganda of considerable importance was being car ried on All Over Canada and particularly in the West and unfortunately Many of the labor leaders were in his opinion very much influenced by these seditious doctrines. Miv was very however to emphasize that the big unions such the railway conductors Eri Gine ers train men7 and. What Are generally known As big and Many others of the re co Ghize Trade prisons were not in any. Way. Affected by it. In fact he thought that the part played by in Canada during this War had been of such a High patriotic character that it was an absolute justification of their existence and an evidence that properly conducted labor unions could exert a wonderful influence for Arpod in any country provide for investigations.
