To convince ourselves of this we have only to look,
as we have so often stated in these pages, at the war from the German point of view. The German who is not hypnotized by the action of his Government and who looks the facts in the face must know that no successes in Poland and no delay in our supplies of ammunition can save him from ultimate defeat. In spite of his titanic struggles, the iron circle is being drawn tighter and tighter around him. Italy has this week closed one of the gape in the encirclement of the German fortress. Next week Roumania may close another, and later Bulgaria and Greece yet a third instalment in the line of circumvallation. But this is not all The power of the Allies is increasing at a far greater ratio than is that of the Germans.
