Paris, Aug. 80.
Paris regards with intense SatSlac-
ton the undoubtcd success Of the thlri
offensive which Marshal Foch launched
the las fortnight. This satisfaction Is
oil the greater from the revelation by
Tho rewspapers that on August Lu-
dopdorff sought to comfort his perpetu-
aIIv harassed troops by the promuIea-
tion of an order in which he asserted
tbat neither the French, BRUSH nor
American were able to undertake lul-
thor offensive operations after thoSe
which have been powerfully repulSeu
and that measures had been taken 10

Curwav troops, even as low as Luden-
lo"ff fears it to be.
Another statement by LuderdOrff that
the war will not be won by stubborn
defensive lighting but by series of
violent attacks, is also recalled with
great relish here. In this connection
it is realized fully that in the matter
of offensves the Germans have every
thing to learn from such a past master
of aggressive tactics as FOch has now
proved himself to be
Foch's whole method of handling the
Allied armies since he took the offensive
On July IS is the admiration of every
expert in France. What is especially
appreciated is the contrast between
Foch's fine. scientific method and the
clumsy work Of the German high COM

night the great battle. begun in the Al
bert region August s, has developed
harmoniously and extended daily.

rorty-eight miles. The Picardy battle

scissors and the Marne on July Is, and
from now on it is safe to predict that

again to appear in the communicates.
Never have the Germans been able tC

extent Of continuous front. Up to July
IS their greatest effort was a bull-lik,
rush on a continuous line less thar
forty-fOur miles in extent.

foot policy. l am not in favor of hav-
ing our boys brigaded with other troops
abroad. Whenever Americans have gone
into battle over there as American units
they have made glorious record"
Urging that Congress do nothing to
impede the war program, Senator Reed
declared it will be necessary to draft
the men below twenty-one If America is
to do the part assigned to her by the
Allies. Reeds speech was the opening
gun in the Senate in the fight to pre-
vent passage of. an amendment similar
to that proposed in the House to defer
calling the men below twenty-one. Reed
said the present army program doesn't
call for big enough army, in his opin-
ion.
Senator Reed predicted that 5000, 900
or 1000, 900 men would have to be raised
before the end of the war, which, he
| said, would last another twenty-four
months. He advocated sending half-a-
million men at once to Russia, declaring
| they would keep 100000 Austrian sol
diers busy, and If the Russians opposed
them it would prove Russia was vassal
Of Germany
Five amendments were introduced by
| Senator Cummins. One provides that
the work -or-hght provision is not TO
apply to strikes, providing the strikers
are willing to submit their dispute to the
decision of a board designated by the
President Anothe proposes the regis
tration first of men of twenty and be-
tween thirty-ope and thirty-fve; Sec
ond, those of nineteen and between
thirty-six and forty, and third, II nec-
essary, those of eighteen and between

Other. amendments would permit the
exemption of men engaged In some
other productive occupation, employ
ment or business deemed necessary"
prohibit mon within draft ages to leave
the country for more than week II
order to engage in labor elsewhere, an'
provide that an adequate number or mel
should remain in civil employment nee
essary to produce supplies and othe

Secretary Baker expressed the view
this afternoon that 1t would not ps
