THE NEW OFFENSIVE
PREPARING GERMANY FOR THE SLAUGHTER TO COME INSPIRED PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN (AUSTRALIAN-NEW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.) AMSTERDAM, 25th February. The German war press is beginning an inspired publicity campaign in order to prepare the public for fresh sacrifices on the Western front. The Army Commana is evidently fearful of the depressing effect the coming operations may have on the country. They particularly stress the argument that the enemy must bear the guilt "of the terrible things which will result from the 'Allies' refusal to enter into peace negotiations. The Vossische Zeitung says : "A most monstrous and terrible thing is awaiting the Continent. Never in history will the memory of this terrible February be effaced. We stand before the tragic alternatives of victory or decline. Our best blood must flow, and bitterness and pain enter German homes, but we. are sure of victory."
