A wartime column weighs German manpower estimates from Cheramiade and Martin. Cheramiade fears about six million on the western and eastern fronts total ten million, while Martin cites 225 German divisions on the west front with about 2.5 million troops available.

It also discusses Allied resolve, Turkey and Bulgaria, and hints at women’s mobilization and peace debates with Austria and Germany.
