PROLONGING THE AGONY.
GERMANY MAY WANT PEACE
BEFORE THE MACHINE WEARS.
(Times and Sydney Sun Services.)
(Received 8130 a.m.) LONDON, March 16. The "Times" military correspondent says: "If the submarines' blockade has proved practically valueless as a means of coercing England, and if the AustroGerman offensive in th eEastern theatre is a failure, the enemy must admit there is no good object in prolonging the war, since it would make Germany's situation worse instead of better. The German navy has lost more tonnage than ours, and we are, therefore, in a relatively better situation than we were in August. The Germans would like to discuss terms before their military machine begins to wear out. and while they are still in possession of Belgium in the west and part of Poland in the east, and a nominally unbeaten fleet."
