Show i ' sin Ipriaratp l inwiw I 11 Germany's professed contempt for America 'swar preparations is somewhat belied by evidences of g her desperate determination to Avin before our soldiers arrive in force. Thus dispatches tell of west- I ward-moving German troop-trains congesting the roads to Flanders, of Austrian forces shifted to the I French front, and of a growing intensity of Teutonic artillery fire along the whole western line. Advices I that leak out from Germany all indicate that the kaiser's only hope of victory lies in delivering a "knock I out" blow before American forces can get into the field. 8 In THE LITERARY DIGEST or December 22d, one of the leading articles deals with the possi- L bilities in the German drive on the 'western front, and how it may affect the allies' chances of victory. Other features are: Turning the Light On Our War Activities Editorial Opinion Upon the Charges Before Congress of a Lack of Efficiency in Our War Administration. Is the U. S.
