' ‘ ‘ A c A‘-‘ Ah:n, The Roumanians who have been retreating northeast of Bucharest be- . 8‘ fore the Teutonic advance have made hie a stand to the east of Ploechti, the cha Petrograd War Office announced on _ Sunday. They assumed the offensive +4“ on the road from Ploechti to Buzeu s- and drove the Austro-German forces 4 back to the Westward. By making *- their stand here the Roumanian line g has been greatly shortened and the 4. defenders placed in a much better 4' ‘position, nearer to the Russian bases, g on the trunk railway from Caernowitz. .1. ‘f‘The fall of Bucharest is without 3. 1gmflitary significance, but I have no .§.

During the short hours of the gray Winter daylight big guns back of the fighting lines hurl tons of high explosives against the German positions. With the coming of night, however, all is changed. Then men Imeet face to face and hand to hand, 'and primitive methods of mortal com- lbat come again into play. The long, ‘dark nights are ideal for trench raids . and they are Carried out by the British ‘in great numbers with the Canadians iespecially eager and resourceful. Something of a deadlock exists in the enquiry into the Canadian military hospital system owing to a request by Dr. Bruce, of Toronto, who investi- gated the system in England and made a report at the request of Sir Sam Hughes. Dr. Bruce desires the scope of the enquiry extended to include his investigations in certain directions since his original report was made.
