EXPECTED BY RUSSIANS IN SPRING. METHODICAL PREPARATIONS TO MEET IT. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, February 2.

The Luftwaffe will unquestionably again operate in the spring, but Russians have less regard for it than for the tanks, and the current Russian offensives are intended to destroy the maximum number of men and tanks, and also embarrass the potential offensive by maintaining the initiative.
