NEW YORK, March 7.-Still great
er confusion at German headquarters
concerning the main disposition OF
General Pershing's forces will result
from the statement that Americans
have taken over a new section Of the
Lorraine front.
The principal meaning of the an
nouncement Is that General Pershing
has changed the direction of his
troop movements. From the time the
Germans flrst discovered American
I! troops In the trenches near the Rhine
Marne canal, every successive revel-
alton of the American positions has
been toward the west.
| The first discovery of the Stars and
Stripes by the Germans was almost at
| the extreme western point OF the
French front, where 1t joins the Brit
ish.
Now, however, General Pershing has
! jumped back to the eastern end OF the
! line in Lorraine.
Won Hindenburg's uncertainty as to
the point of the Forthcoming American
offensive is. for the present. hopeless
| ly eytangled by this policy of dodging
about. From Chavignon, the westerns
most point known to have been occu-
pied by American troops to Lorraine
| is over 100 miles There are at least
Ten possible areas along that line,
where the American offensive might
be concentrated 1t is Won linden
burg's turn to guess.
Germany's enforcement of q con-
uueror's peace upon Rumania shows
that the German militarists are trying
to make not only Rumania but also
Bulgaria subservient to German con-
troll There are strong indications
that Bulgaria is not to receive from
Rumania that part of Bulgarian terri
tory seized by the Rumanians during
the last Balkan war.
The district probably will be made
over to Germany instead of Bulgaria.
Thus. If the Bulgars eventually re-
ceive the Dobrudja, they will have the
gift from Germany. By this shrewd
trick. the Germans hope to bind Bull
garia still closer to them for the FUR
therance Of the mittel-Europea policy.

CHICAGO, March IA wage in

cause was submitted finally today to
Federal Arbitrator Samuel Alschuler.
Attorney J. G. Condor, in his closing
argument for the packers, stated they
are willing to give twenty-five cents
day increase on the present ten
hour work day basis. Attorney Frank
P. Walsh, in final rebuttal this morn
ing, pleaded for the employees full

ized packers of America, afraid or
ashamed to come here In person,
hired clever brains to come and
plead that you keep industry safe

mocracy are battling for freedom"
With these words. Frank P. Walsh,
launched his final plea before Arbi-
traitor Samuel Alschuler here today
for the packing house employees de-
mands for an eight hour day and
higher pay. Walsh hurled denial at
the packers stand that the eight
hour day would endanger food pro-
duction for the army Of America and
her allies. He bitterly condemned
the employers plea that discomfort,
unhealthy for the national morale
during the war would follow an award
Of higher pay in the packing indus

tendents in the room In the course

Walsh shouted:
These employees children are
hungry, they are cold because you
are not paying a living wage. God
never intended any man to have the
arbitrary powers you packers have, a
power to tell your employees what
they shall eat and what they shall
wear. These employees adopted the
only method known of successfully
coping with it-collective bargaining
through union. Yet these men sur
rendered their economic rights to
strike and agreed to abide by this
arbitration award during the war"
Walsh offered to match this pat
riotism' against the packers argu-
ment that their demands endangered
the war.
