ted General Pershing's forces approx
mately 155 square miles of territory
in the st. Mihiel salient, which had
been in German hands since the au-
tumn of 1914
Following American troops through
captured villages, the correspondent
found on every hand evidences of
long control by the Germans. Bills
for supplies had been paid with cur
rency on which the Germans had
printed French monetary terms.
Inhabitants of the sadient were abb
solutely ignorant of events in the
last four years, knowing only what
their captors had told them. Here
the sad stories heard in the whole of
the reclaimed districts of Fraice we're
accentuated by the long years of Ger
man control which had isolated the
people from news of relatives and of
world happenings.
Every American entering the vii
lagos experienced the same reception
as thart given to Secretary of War
Baker and General Pershing and
their party Aged men and women
seized and kissed the ahnds of the
officers and correspondents, crying
and laughing, the curiosity aged

OVER ST. MiHiEL WIN
Our War Secretary Returns to Paris
After Visit to General Per-
shing at Front.

Paris.-Newton d. Baker, the Amer
lean secretary of war, returned Mon
day from the American battle front,
where he spent two days with the
American troops, accompanying them
as they marched into st. Mihiel.
AS the big army automobile stopped
in front of General Pershing's Paris
home the secretary alighted, covered
with mud from head to foot. He car
ried his gas mask in one hand and
his steel helmet in the other.
While deeply stirred with what he
had seen Secretary Baker refrained
from commenting on the American
victory at this time except in for
NAL statement, which follows:
General Pershing's announcement
will cover the military situation. The
people of the United States will be
overjoyed that their army, in close
cooperation with the allies. has been
able to achieve this striking success.
A particularly happy circumstance is
that the victory delivers from the in
vader territory which had been occu-
pied for four years and restored ii
to France and her people who had
been captive during the long period.
