THE SPRING OFFENSIVE. The new pha.se of tho Germ on "strategic retreat" must bo extremely diseoncert-ing to the devosut admirers of the great. Ilindenberg. Competent observers were under co delusion ;is to the meaning of tlio great withdrawal from the Ax.ap-Scissen.3 salient: it was the inevitable oonsequenoe of the smashing blow on the Somme; but the enemy had to put the beA faco on his misfortune just qE;, in fact, we ourselves had to explain awty as be?t we could our withdrawal, say, from the Dardanelles. But there can bo no explain- ing away the new blow of fjhc British oh the dozeLwnile frcnt which txteradi from Lena to Arras covering as 4 did the key position of the Bocbo on the ridge of Yimy, dominating the western plain and forming the hinge of the fio-oalkd Huidoiib'&r.g line. This position till) enemy had held for thirty months and considered impregnable. It ha;" fallen to the British assault, and we may hope that its fa!J signalises thooipc-ming of the spring offen- sive Which will hasten tho march of hhe Ger- man army towards the Rhine. It is too early y'C'j to speak with certainty aA to the sdgni- ficanoo of this success of our arms, but it is at any rate satisfactory as an indication of tho eiiiciency of our artillery, the tonicity and dngh of our infantry, and. who determina- tion of all to establish an undeniable super- iority over the picked men of the Kaiser's f (ti ceo. Coming en the top of the striking inter- vention of the United States in favour of the Allies, tho news of this brilliant opening of the spring campaign is apt to encourage lugh ihopes for the decision which some people say may be obtainwi this year. We trust it may bo so, for uhe-n only ehali ve make suro of inflicting upon the enemy that knock- out blow by which the peace of the world n:ay be made reasonably safe against a re- crudescence of Prussian militarism. Our amible success qooi the Western front amid in ffpcurinig the firm adhesion of the United States aa a full war partner in the Grand Alliance fdiould fix our determination more lirmlv thcun ever to leave nothing undone to ma,k<> an early victory a certainty. There is n.) doubt about our capacity to win-and to vjy outright. This is not to under-eetimate cither the strength or the will of the enemy. No one wli. gives heed to the wise and pru- dent warnings of our own experts will be tempted to THidpr-rata cither the capacity or th< inveterate hate of Germany. Sir William Robertson has, during the last few days, called our attention to the mar- vellous efforts which the enemy has made to ii-creaso his niiii-p-wcx and the efficiency of •V.tf fighting machine. Germany is to-day stronger than 8ho ever was. "She has," according to our Chief of the Military Staff, more divisions in tho held than last year, and has increased the number of her soldiers • <y about a million." It is only by imitating and by excelling the enemy's effort that we oan expect to beat him. Sir William Robert- sur, is quite erafid,nt that we can beat him --but only in one way. And that one way is by devoting all our recources to the mainten- ance cf our Army at full and increasing Ftrengtl'. We dare not neglect this. It is the eseontial oondition. of success: it is the <t!e thing between us and a disastrous fail- lire. J-.ot us realise tho task that is imme- diately in front of us-namely, that we sim- piv have to find not finwer than five hundred thousand additional men for the British Army ivi thin, the next three months. We shaH have to resort to the most essential trades and industries in order to find these men. Agri- culture, shipbuilding, even the munitioli shops will havo to yield men in order to itreng-theu the Army. There is no other vray, and the consequence is that every man and wonian in the land must immediately come forward to help in filling the positions vacated "by the withdrawal of re- cruits froon the eseential serviced.

Mr John Hedge's downright pronounce- ment against the methods and aims of the extreme section of the so-called Temperance Party hfm not :in.iturally attracted con- siderable attention. That tie leading men of the Laljour Parly should come forward in defence cf the reputation of-the classes whom thy directly represent is not at all remark- able but the Minister for Labour has not hitherto bMn credited with what may be oeserilx'd as "liberal" opinions in regard to the licensing question As a member of tho Board of Control he was, in fact, rather looked upon as an extremist 011 the teetotal fide in the same boat, as it were, with Mr fei;owdcn. Apparently Mr Hodgo has no sym- pathy at all with the cranks, and in his lASlWI outspoken way says so. The Prohibitionists, so luj told the r-c- presentative cf a well-known Sunday raper, are trying to force the hands of the Government: they are exploiting their per- opinion} "with. tho war as an excuse," and their exaggerations of tlio evil of tho drink traffic in hampering the output of munitions have done more harm than good to their cause On the top of this Mr Hodge roundly declares that he lias not come across 4, any man in the Trade Union movement of any standing" who sympathises with the activity of the Prohibitionists. Wo very much fear that this sort of straight talking won't make Mr-IIodge any more popular amongst the extremists than his honest <K.-ci juration on the subject of Free Im- ports—"Wo wero blind cut now wo seo"- made him amongst the Ccbdenites. But he will receive full compensation in gaining the lvtpect of all moderate men who agree with liiu that there is nothing either immoral or detrimental to the physical capacity and on- etgy of the working man in a glass of good ale. One statement by the Labour Minister is worth tfeoording; it ought to put an end once for all to the stupid inventions of the Strength of Britain people: "I have had let- tero- from time to time, says Mr Hodge, from many of the large employers in the country declaring that" drink has not dimini- ifhed the output." In the face of this, how can the Prohibitionists go on slandering tho I workpeople of this country?

NOTES OF THE WEEK. I With the rest of their countrymen the Volunteers suffered disappointment and discomfort owing 10 the strange vagaries of aa Easter whicn played havoc not merely with all weather records but with many eagerly awaited programmes of field-work arid traininig. But they had at any rate one compensation in the 6hape of the very en- oouraging and commendatory address deliv- ered to a fine turn-out of 7000 Essex Vol un- teers, and, through them, to the whole body d V oluntrs throughout the oountry, by their Commander-in-Chief, his Royal High- ness the Dulco of Ccnm-kught. The Duke re- called that it was one of the recollections of his early youth t.Nvt he had been present, in Queen Victoria's carriage, at the memorable I yde Park review nearly 60 years ago when Her Majesty for the first time inapected the "Volunteers of the period. In the course of Iii6 speech to the Ehwex Volunteers on Easter Sunday, the Duke of Connaught said:— As you know, the demand upon ouir men of service age has been very heavy, both in the Regular Army and in' the Territorial Army, and the Government is mcst grateful to have a body of Voluiiteer-s who have shown such a fine patriotic spirit 88 I see represented here before me. Our great object in having a Volun- teer foroo is to relesiee others who are younger and more capable of ^banding the hard work of active campaigning, and I am sure you have the spirit even it you have not the age to do. eome soldiering still. We recognised that, ehould the Germans ever land in ling land or on a.ny part of ou.r coasts, it would be largely on the Vountec.rt: that we should have to de- pend to repel them." » The Duko of Connaught, referring to the change in the official attitude which has taken plaeo during the paM, year, added:— "TIbo War Office thoroughly recognise the loyal anid patriotic wishce of the Volunteers, and are anxious to meet them in every way. 1 hope to see aa la..t'ge a number of the A Class of V olUdHcrers as po&sit>ie. sometimes it 16 im- agined that. A men will have to w sent 10 any part of tlie country tiiat may be seiectcd. ine A Claee are not intended to bo taken away from where they work. It is only in the case of invasion that Volunteers may be sent to any part ot the country, and I hope you wiii make tlias quite: ciear to tho men." A point which had been a matter of anxiety to many Volunteers m tonus cleared up on the highest possible ant horny, and it is to be liojKxf that this explanation by the lioyal Commander-in-Chief will lead to a great in- crease in tiio enrolment of "Oats A" Volun- teers for the prescribed minimum of training and for emergency service. 'The Duke con- cluded an address which had given great encouragement to all ranks witfi an expres- sion of cordial appreciation of the "splendid eerv ic.(" that the spare-timo soldiers" are reMderi&Lg throughout the country. tt Events have at length proved tco etrong for tho p^^ifista of the Independent Labour Party, anu the Easter Conference at Jbeeds has witnessed the collapse of the last rotten plank of the pro-German platform upon which their "stage-nrmy" has postured for SD lofttg before an impatient public. First came tho Russian Revolution, to make sheer mockery o the stocli pro-German and paci- fist arguments that the Grand Alliance was no more tihan the instrument of tyranny and autocracy, und to leave the so-called apostles of Democratic Control" in a more ridiculous position than ever as the apologists for the crimes of Prussian militarism. Then, to complete the overthrow of the pacifist pre- tence, came the entrance cf the United States into belligerent alliance with Germany's op- ponents, heralded by a conclusive statement of t(IC issue from the statesma.n whom tho secretary of the "Union of Democratic Con- trol" only recently canonised as "the most powerful and mcot independent per??naHty iu the world." # We know not to what devices the Mac- donakls and Snowdens and Trevelyans will now have recourse in their attempts to em- barrass tho defenders of those very rights and liberties over which they mo'u1¡ their empty platitudes. But we do know that they have .lest their audience-small and unrepre- sentative aa that audience was. The whoie platform of pretence, as we have said, has given way. But in the confusion they have found nothing else but to commit themselves mc-io deeply than ever to the cam- paign which has brought them to their nn- doang. We do not know whether Mr Ram- say Macdonald has lost hope, but it is evi- dent that hS Las loot control even of the dis- credited ""following" that remained to him. The pacifist resolution carried by 2";6 votes to 96 in favour of a renewed effort for an all- embracing policy of "internationalism" and non-resistance—in which a place would pre- sumably be specially roserved for the Huils- was adopted in spit-}, of the almost tearful appeals of Mr Maodcnald, who is still enough of a. politieiaji to t hatsnpport of it will' suffioe to disqualify any "I.L.P." man from appearing before a jnrblic audience of countrymen for many a day to come. His warnings were unavailing, and his frantic efforts were completely defeated. "Pacifism" has surely reached the extreme point of in- tajiity and inanition when Comrade Mao tionald" i.s deiio-iinced by tlio f;i.ittifill ;Itj a backslider and a defaulter. To the spectator he sterns merely a more cunning tactician than the reckless "foiiowers'' who no longer accept his "leadership." » • Whilst allotment holders in some place,? lind ii difficult to procure seed for planting owing to the great demand, there is no reason to complain in Sotilii CztriiarvoLcshire, judging by remarks made at Wednesday's meeting ft the Lleyu Rural Council. One of the memiJers of this body volunteered the in- formation that there were so many agenta selling all sorts of seeds ikitl they had almost "become a nuisance in tho countrv." Allot- ment holders in the Lleyn Peninsula must hurry on wLh their .?pade work in c.'?e some I-,Ljrry on ivi-,Ii tlie?r ,l)ade ivork ill C-IIi?e soltile should try to draw upon the "plentiful silp, piy" of seeds to w hi oh tho rural councillor referred. Tho autocratic or 1 style of trading has become general during war (writes a correspondent). It began with the grocer's stipulation that to obtain sugar, which you did want, you must buy an assortment of things which you didn't. Then the greengrocer made cabbage, carrots, and turnips tho qualification for a dole of pota- toes, and now the principle has even pene- trated the chocolate shop. I ventured to ask at; one of these establishments in Manchester for a quarter of choeolate creams, whieh drert from tHe naughty young saleswoman the question, "Do you mean mixed chocolates?" 1 said, "No. Creams-all creams." We haven't got them all creams," she retorted coldly, evidently astonished at tho audacity of feuch a suggestion. I we-nt to a shop where they had, and all the way I wondered why a customer who wanted chocolate creams had t J bo intimidated into taking something quito different—apparent chocolates, for example, which would prove to bo gluey or etony sub- stances in chocolate's clothing. Calling at a tobacconist's shortly afterwards, I was quite relieved when he handed me the packet of smoking mixture I requested and did not in- sisi on my taking cigarettes or a cigar-holder a: well. » » ■ So much has been heard of the prohibition enforced by Sir Francis JAoYd about dancing that it is interesting to relate, for the first time in print, something about the bait which brought matters to a climax. The now famous dance at tho Grafton Galleries was not given by an Englishman at all, but by a Russian. Everybody knowa that Rue- sians in their hospitality let champagne flow; like water. In this instance the reprasenta- tive of our Ally invited over flv-o hundred guests, including in his rather catholio gathering ladies of rank, ladies from the other side of the footlights, officers on leave, and tons of other people. At supper he in- timated ho wished the Russian habit of smashing wineglasses after a toast to be in- dulged in, and it was the crash of these that caused people in the vicinity to believe, erroneously, an orgie was being held. Souia of his guests told their host his would be th( last' dance of the war owing to it« lavishness. end so it proved. The fun grew furious uajil breakfast was provided, but I)cfor larch-time tho merriment was under offici-I consideration, followed by drastic condemns tion. A peeress, leaving after four, observed. to her host, "This deserves to be as famous as the Waterloo ball." "It is superior be* can so you have graced it with your Pl'cscuce,'( was hia courtly reply. # Mx Isgoed Jonce, of Llanrwst (says the Daily Man), has rendered a public service by his recent suggestion that steps should be taken to secure tho removal of the 50 per cent, increase in railway fares for public men when travelling to attend meetings of public bodi. Thero is surely no part of the tilted Kinguom in which the interests of public bodies are administered with greatei zeal and efficiency than is the caee in North Wales, and the significance of this fact 1» comes apparent when it is remembered t»ha| there is no portion of Britain where the rail- way facilities are so meagre as in the centra] districts of North Wales. From the brief details of the great British attack 011 the Turks at Gaza which reach ed London over tho week-end there is evidence that the Welsh troops who took part in ib displayed great heroism. rribLLte8 to thein biavery have already been communicated by, the military authorities in an official com- munique and by newspaper correspondent* who witnessed the advance, but the exi- gencies of war prevent a full narrative being told just now. When, however, the story of tho advance is unfolded the Principality will have reason to be proud of what Wetah sold- iers—tlio Territorials in particular—achieved after a sojourn of many months with the Egyptian Expeditionary Force. Lieutenantr Geneaal Sir diaries Macpheraon Dobeil, K.C.B., who is in command of tho force, is an officer of high military skill, with unrivalled knowledge of the East. It'was he who was in charge of the British force which achieved the conquest of the German colony in the Cam-eroonis. He was appointed to the com- mand on the western frontier of Egypt i& November last. « < Now that prizes are given in "kind" in our eisteddfodau we ahall expect (says the Western Mail.) a change in the noms-de-plume of cur singers and songstrcssos. A sack of potatoes wa", given recently as a prize for the champion solo in a local eisteddfod. Th-a winner will probably bo known in future as "Eos Tatws." Wo have heard of Eos Blawd- ilil before. What of Alaw Cabbage, Llinos Bresyeh, Llew Beetroot, etc.? A noted choir h ts been long known is Cor y Gadair Aur, and wo shall not bo surprised to read of "Cor yr Indian Com" if this war lasts much lor.ger.
