THE THIRD WINTER
To judge by the appearance in all the German military article? of denials that the German troops have suffered from the cold weather, it is probable that this is a matter of special anxiety iu Germany. Major Moraht, in the ‘Berliner Tagebiatt,’ is at great pains to explain that the troops arp well fed, although he admits that the troops on “ the fronts that are comparatively calm” cannot, for reasons ot economy, be so well looked after as the troops on fronts where there is great activity. Suspicious emphasis is laid upon the excellence of conditions on the Austrian fronts, where, according to what Major Moraht calls ‘‘ authentic reports,” there are ‘‘neither starving nor freezing men.”
