Abstract

The Week

July 6, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

This article presents political developments. While it is plain that the Austrians escaped the complete disaster which appeared to confront them last week and that the Italian offensive was not able to progress beyond the Piave, the crushing of the Austrian attack remains a magnificent achievement. Doubtless the fresh outbreaks in Hungary and Bohemia and the reported mutinies in Hungarian regiments have been fanned into flame by despair of a military victory and anger over the defeat. Meanwhile the conference of the British Labor party, by a vote of about two to one, has decided to withdraw from the political truce.
