A LONG WAY AHEAD
" THE war will last another five years," that is the opinion of a wide-awake Russian visitor to New Plymouth. " It's like this. The Russian can never be beaten His heart is in this war; he" feels deeply the humiliating tactics of the Germans, and he will fight on till he dies. The French are equally determined, and, as for the British, they have never known defeat. Their initial reverses in any of their campaigns only steel them to greater efforts, and they invariably win the last battle. As for the Germans, they have cast the die and know that they will get no mercy. They therefore will fight on till they fall from sheer exhaustion. It is a war to the death, and Germany as a nation will die, and in the process some of the other nations will be bled white."
