This article focuses on various issues related to politics. Austria's offensive, launched against Italy on June 15, 1918, came to an inglorious end on June 23 and June 24, 1918, when the retreat on the river Piave almost became a rout. American forces are pouring in on the western front in a growing stream, 100,000 men having been sent during the week of June 15-22, 1918. Nine hundred thousand Americans have at present been shipped across the sea, and the U.S. is five months ahead of its programme for sending men to France. Czecho-Slovak efforts against the Bolshevist Government have cut off communication by way of the Siberian Railway and stopped traffic on the River Volga.
