CUTzON BORCLUM
 DENIES CHARGES
Republican A. P. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, May 12.-Gutzon Borglum, storm center of the aviation controversy, made public tonight an- other letter to President Wilson, de- nying that he had betrayed the presi- dents confidence, renewing his asser- tions of grave misconduct in the gov ernment aircraft production organiza- tion, and insisting that the senate military committee should conduct openly and thoroughly the investiga- tion which he says he was prevented from making ''by the war department under Secretary Baker.
 In regard to the documents put into the senate record Friday designed to show that the sculptor attempted to capitalize his friendship with the pres ident by secretly organizing a corpora ton to produce aeroplanes. the letter says Senator Brandegee of Connecticut will submit to the senate Tuesday or Wednesday detailed evidence and affi- davits relating to this deliberate frame up."
 Tt is a matter of the gravest con- cern to me-" it adds, that credence could be given to charges of such a nature, or that they could have been in your possession-and have received no intimation of the falsehood until MT. Marshall intimated that there was some sort of a charge or charges of disloyalty to you. This is so unthink- able that I dismissed and declined to even discuss them"

DECIDE NOT TO
 USE AMERICANS
 TILL ALL READY
Allies Feel Confident They
 Can Hold Off Enemy Un-
 til Complete, Powerful Army Is Massed By U. $.
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

OTTAWA, May 12.-So confident is the entente of it's ability to withstand any drive the Germans can launch that It has been decided not to use the American army until it becomes a complete and powerful force, according to cable summary of operations on the western front received here tonight from the war committee of the British cabinet
 The position now is" said the sum- mary, that the Germans, determined to concentrate every available unit on one enormous offensive, are draining their country dry to force a decision before it is too late, while the entente are so confident that having been given the choice of a small immediate American army for defense or waiting till they are reinforced by a complete powerful, self supporting American ar my they have chosen the latter.
 "To the sledgehammer uses of mass es of men by the enemy the allies are opposing the strategy of meeting the blow with the smallest force capable Of standing up to the shock, while keep ing the strongest reserve possible.
 Troops on the wings are permitted to give ground within limits wherever the enemy has been made to pay a greater price than the ground is worth, the whole aim being to reduce the en- emy to such a state of eXhaustion that our reserve. at the right moment, can restore the situation.
 Tn the present operations the Brit ish army has withstood many times it's own weight of enemy masses. It has retired slowly, eXacting the fullest price. Meanwhile Foch holds the bulk of the French in reserve, sending units only to points hard pressed. This strategy has justified itself in that in three weeks it has seen the enemy brought to a standstill without a single strategic objective being fulfilled and with losses so immense that his re- serve is in danger of proving inade- quate to his policy
 '1rhe German commander, seeing | how nearly he is delivering himself to the allied reserve, has been compelled | (Continued on Page Two)

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, May 12.-The Seicheprey salient shows signs of again becoming active. The enemy last night and this morning deIuged the place with ma chine gun bullets.
 On the same front ore of the Amer ican patrols found number of German bodies in advanced enemy trenches, where they probably had been left dur ing the heavy American bombardment on the night of May 4.
 American patrols have entered the enemy lines in the sectors of Luneville and south of Verdun, but did not en- counter resistance.
 Official reports of the German losses in the Seicheprey battle, according to a prisoner recetly captured, give 600 killed, wounded or missing.
 WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, Saturday, May 11.-ln the Luneville sector our patrols early this morning established the fact that the hamlet of Ancer-Viler has been aban- doned by the enemy. The Germans had not even attempted to occupy shell holes in the salient which recently was torn up by our artillery. Quiet pre- vails todaySou all fronts in which there are Americans, according to reports. Poor visibility has prevented extended aerial activity.
