Of WAR GAME
Experts Believe That Army Of

Cope With Any.
Special Gable to The American.

PARIS, Sept. 27.-Experts' who
watched the maneuvers in Southwest
France find cheer and comfort in the
brilliancy Of General Chomer and
General Paus in their strategy and
tactics. apart from faults OF judgment
in handling their cavalry.
The commanders OF rival armies.
the red and the blue, seem to have
shown that France could hope great
things from them IN a real war The
intelligence OF subordinate officers.
who were allowed unusual chances OF
displaying quick decision and initia-
tive; the endurance and mobility of
the infantry and the magnificent or
ganization of the artillery also com
PEELED widespread admiration.
Last, but not least the usefulness Of
aeroplanes has been demonstrated.
At the maneuvers, which took place
in a region crowded with natural OBJ
stacles and calculated to test the re-
sources Of the ablest generals. the
achievements Of the French infantry
we're remarkable. They quite upset
the common superstition that only
men Of Drawn and muscle count as
soldiers
One regiment OF the line. the One
Hundred and Eighth. marched 25
miles between a. m. and noon with
out dropping one man by the wayside
The Thirty fourth division covered As
miles in SO hours and went on parade
with every man in place despite a
drenching rainstorm.
The maneuvers have demonstrates
that the French army is fact, not a
dream.
