...sure that it is not for the ordinary daily attrition. Raids have been made almost continuously, and with a remarkable intensity of artillery fire and fierceness of attack. The High Command is evidently feeling out the weak spot for the great attack. They cannot hope to wear out the Allied armies by these minor tactics, they are only a prelude to greater events. A raid of one or two companies on a short front will show up the weaknesses that probably also would be present in the whole sector, and so give an indication of the place to start...

...find a potentiality in that mass of people, who still have political uneasiness and stage-fright, which can overthrow their machinations. If the Bolsheviki leaders are to be decorated with some order, let us present them with thirty pieces of silver. Let not they who would stoop to anything wear a badge which has been the badge of honorable attainment.
