Baker Praises Troops With Gen. Per-

lied Forces

Washington, April 17-Steeled to
the work ahead of him by personal
knowledge of conditions at the battle
fronts in Europe, Secretary Baker re-
turned to his desk at the War Depart
ment from his trip abroad. There is
no doubt that he believed measures
to checkmate the German effort will
come out of the pooling of all allied
and American resources under COM
mand of Gen. Foch, the French com
mander-in-chief. On his arrival at an
Atlantic port he authorized this state
ment:
81 return with sense of pride and
confidence at the achievements of the
United States and allied troops abroad
that would justify many trips across
the water
Whatever direct information the
war secretary may have as to the
plans of Gen. Foch will be for the ear
of President Wilson alone.
