and boys, little children and babies

was called up, the colonel in COM

fumbling among the mass OF dead.

With the French Armies, March l6
-(By mail) The latest grip of Ger
many s iron hand on AIsace Lorraine
is to force the women and girls who
still remain there TO abandon their
homes and perform manual labor in
the war zone. The system of deporta-
tion and virtual slavery is the same as
that inaugurated by Won Bissing in
Belgium and northern France.
According to letters which have just
reached France from these two strick-
en- provinces many of these women and
girls are now being obliged to dig both
trenches and tunnels.
Despite the rigid surveillance which
the Germans exercise over the inhabi
tants of Alsaee-Lorraine, the latter still
find means of getting letters into
France, usually by way of Switzer-
land which give vivid descriptions Of
the regime which the Germans are
now imposing there.
One of these letters from Essy-les
Nancy and which succeeded in getting
through to Ouey in Switzerland, reads:
''In certain villages the young girls
are employed in digging trenches and
tunnels until we are forced to wonder
how these unfortunate ones can keep

New York, April 15.-Von linden
burg 8 first serious attempt to test the
morale of the American troops in
France has had results that must prove
highly disconcerting TO the German
general staff. There can be no doubt
but that the enemy thrusts against the
American trenches in the st. Mihiel
sector has been for the purpose of per-
mitting Hindenburg to determine the
fighting qualities of General Pershings
forces. 1t is now essential for linden.
burg to know with fair exactitude how
the Americans are capable of fighting
because American units are beginning
to arrive in support of the British
lines protecting the roads to the Chas
incl ports
Hindenburg, therefore, unquestion
lably ordered test attacks be developed
against the trenches held exclusively
by Americans in eastern France so
that German commanders could be in
structed what to do when encountering
Americans in Picardy and Flanders.
This is why "shock troops" were
used by the Germans. "'Shock troops =
are the most highly trained and most
dependable soldiers in the German ar
my. They are not wasted on unimport-
ant raiding expeditions, but are care
fully preserved for offensive purposes
in major operations or for important
experimental work. The employment of
the "shock troops against the Amer
leans can have been for no other pur-
pose than to provide information for
Hindenburg as to the conduct of the
American troops when attacked by the
best offensive units in the kaiser IS
army.
AS result of these encounters in
struetions must certainly be issued to
German commanders to exercise great
caution and take no chances when en-
gagged in operations against Americans.
There is no room to doubt but that the
German shock troops were overwhelm-
ed in hand to hand engagements with
the Americans and that the assaults
of these picked soldiers of the kaiser
against the American trenches were
broken down without difficulty. Had
the Germans not retreated to their
trenches they would have been annihi.
lated by the individual rifle work of
the Americans There is every reason
for America TO feel satisfied with the
outcome of the first real test between
Hindenburg's and Pershing men.

to foreshadow a fight against the cits
