VERDUN WILL NOT FALL.
WAR CORRESPONDENT STAKES HIS REPUTATION. GERMANS Wttl FIGHT WITH GREATER DESPERATION. (Received 1.30 p.m.) SYDNEY, this day. Mr. Harry Gullctt, who was the official Australian correspondent at the British headquarters in France, addressing the New South "Wales Journalists' Association, speaking of thp probable result of the German attack in the West, said he would stake whatever reputation he had that Verdun would not fall.. It was rank folly, however, to talk of an early ending of the war. When the Germans were right up against it they would not collapse but would fight with greater desperation.
