FRENCH TRENCHES TOLD

CAV Assoc,ATrp passs,

7 IN FLANDERS, Dec. 3, Via Paris,
Dec. IA visit to the French trenches
IN Flanders by correspondent of the
Associated Press under the auspices
of the French general staff is here
described.
Standing in the shelter OF a won-
derfully ingenious and deep-dug
trench on what undoubtedly is the
bloodiest battlefield in European his-
tory the first and most notable inn
preston of an observer is one Of
utter surprise at the absence OF move
ment and the lack OF noise. Within
ones range Of vision with a field glass
there are probably concealed no few
err than 100000 men, yet, except. for
the few French soldiers with rifles
in their hands standing or kneeling
in the immediate vicinity no human
presence was noticeable. A stan
officer supplied the information that
behind slight slope some 300 yards
away many German guns were hid
den from sight but only an occasionaf
burst of flames and a sharp whirring
sound told of the presence Of this ar
tillery. A little forest to the left OF
US believed to be bristling with ma
chine guns backed by infantry.
The approach to these positions has
been made almost impossible by
barbed wire entanglements strewn
with brush.
Behind the advanced line OF the al
lies, which thus far has succeeded in
holding back the forward movement
of the Germans. are strong bodies OF
fresh reserves ready to give their help
In stopping any attempted rush OF the
Germans for the channel ports.
Troops of cavalrymen stand at the
head of their chargers ready to jump
into the saddle at moments call
and stem any torrent of oncoming In
fantry. Other cavalry regiments,
owing to the small extent to which
horsemen may be used In this bur-
rowing campaign. have been supplied
with rifles and bayonets and are tax
ing their turn in the trenches with
their comrades in the foot service. IN
many instances they have proved
their versatility and displayed great
dash. The artillerymen. who often
have suffered severely from the de-
structive fire of shell and shrapnei.
hav now learned to seek proper cover
and conceal their positions SO thai
the hostile airmen, who constantly
hover overhead, can rarely discern
them.
