1t was not thing for US TO decide
where our theatre Of war should be
The theatre of war was France. II was
not for US TO decide our line Of com

ton was across 5000 miles OF ocean
one end Of II infested with subma
rines. II was not fer Us 10 decide
whether we would have the maneuver

open. There lay the antagonists on
opposite sides of No Mans Land in
the trenches at a death grapple with
another Our antagonist was on the
other side OF that line and our prob
lem was and is to get over there and

1T was not the problem Of doing
il our way and letting everybody else
take care of himself In the first
place. we were going TO fight in
France. not on our own soil. and not
on our adversary's soil. and therefore
at the very beginning it was obvious
that the thing We had TO do was not
to map out an ideal plan of campaign,
not TO have the war college with its
speculative studies of Napoleon and
everybody else. map out theoretically
the best way to get at some ether
country. but il was q problem of
studying the then existing situation
and bringing the financial. the indus
trial and the military strength of the
United states into cooperation with
that of Great Pri:ain and France IN
the most immediate and effective way.

anything else that ever went on in the
world. so vast in its desolation- so
extraordinary in its uniqueness that
it must be seen and studied on the
ground in order to be cOmprehended
at all
1T is easily imagined that we might
have perfected our army over here
and carried il across the ocean and
found it wholly unadapted to its task.

Baker Answers Questions
Here Senator Weeks interrupted TO
ask if that was the magazine of which
T Theodore Roosevelt is associate editor
Secretary Baker replied that Mr.
I Roosevelt was a contributing editor
and continued:
This magazine came ont in August
/ 1917. and tne editorial says:
Since it is our war, we want to put
everything into il so as TO finish il In
1 the shortest possible time, so that the
world may be restored To our mind
the whole plan of the war department
/ has been favored with a desire to hold
of until the allies finish the war for
us
.sYou see. the editor was dealing
with what he supposed to be the inten-
I ton of the war department at that
time, that we were holding of so far
/ as actual military operations were con
| cerned, and letting the allies do the
Z fighting
What he says we have done and
ask your particular attention TO it. is
this:
1--WE should have strained every en-
ergy to have gotten from SO. 900 to 100.
900 men to France this year
THAT is the year 1917. l tell no
secret, but it is perfectly well known
to everybody in this group that we
have far exceeded what in August,
! 1917. was regarded as a program so
ideal that the editor of this magazine
refers to il as thing which we ought
to have strained every nerve in vain
but hopeless effort to accomplish"
= to Nsr-w. h. -
man Chamberlain the secretary said
the United States did not have more
than the minimum number of men in
France in August, 1917. He contin-
ued:
And then the editor goes on:
"'And by next year, 1918, we could
have had 100000 men to send over. or
any part of 100000 men which we
could ship
Now. instead of having $4,000 or
1905 men in France in 1918 we have
many more than that in France, and
instead of having a half million men
whom we could ship to France il we
could find any way to do it in 1918. we
will have more than one half million
in France early in 1918. and we have
available. if the transportation facili-
ties are available to us. and the pros
pect is not unpromising. one and one
half million who in 1918 an be shipped
to France"

One of the first measures taken by

And one of the big obstacles in the

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON
THE LORRAINE FRONT. Sept. IL
The Germans apparently never expected
to be ousted from the St. Mihiel salient
They had done much work in building
shelters and beer gardens, and about
the Soueveie Farm the country had
toen made to look like a prosperous
German neigh hborhood with resorts
where townspecple might spend their
holidays.
Little clubhouses were built and
equipped not wholly in keeping with
front line operations. The dugouts
and shelters of the officers were fitted
almost luxuriously, some of the larger
ones being fitted with bath tubs and
running water and lighted by electric
ity. Outside of many of them were
little summer houses where the occu-
pants we're accustomed to sit and
drink beer.
