Says United States Must Get Into
War as Quickly as Possible With
Greatest Possible Force.

the past fortnight in Russia it will
necessarily mean the prolongation of
the war;" said Gen. Maurice, chief Iii

cannot longer count on any material
assistance from Russia. This means a
greater burden on the other entente
allies and for United States. 1t means
that the United States must come into
the field as soon as possible with the
greatest possible force"

FAVORABLE REPORT
ONCOL. REICHMANN
WILL Be PREPARED

Confirmation OF the appointment OF
Col. Carl Reichmann to be a briga-
der general will be recommended by
the Senate military affairs sub-com-
mittee, it was learned today from an
authoritative source.
The majority of the subcommittee
has reached the conclusion that the
charges against Colonel Reichmann's
loyalty have not been sufficiently
sustained. The allegations that the
colonel expressed strong pro-German
sympathies are believed by the com
mittee to have been inadequately
supported by the testimony in the In
vestigation.
Senators Fletcher of Florida and
Weeks OF Massachusetts, composing
the majority OF the subcommittee,
are understood to favor the eoloners
confirmation, while Senator Myers Of
Montana takes a contrary view. The
subcommittee will make Its report
10 the whole committee in a few days.
II the whole committee ratihes the
sub-committee's report. night
against Colonel Reichmann probably
