Excerpt from Russia's Part in the World War At the following attempt of the enemy to find a decision in France, to break through to Calais, at Ypres, says Col. Shum sky-solomonov, Russia, by the blows she delivered in Galicia, at Warsaw and in East Prussia, contributed to the early termina tion of this second offensive in France, so dangerous to England, and compelled the Germans for more than a year to abstain from their main operations on the main decisive front of the War - ia France. In 1915 Russia, having shouldered alone the whole bur den of the struggle against Germany, Austria and Turkey, although forced to abandon Poland, still gave the Allies the Opportunity to prepare throughout a whole year for the coming German offensive at Verdun. In 1916 Russia, thanks to the Brusilov offensive, saved Italy at that critical moment when the Austrians, through their successful offensive from Tyrol, in the rear of the Italians, threatened to cut off a considerable por tion of the Italian Army, at the same time menacing Venice. To gether with this, Russia by this offensive greatly facilitated the operations of the Allies on the Somme, and was instrumental in the final clearing of the Verdun forts.
