Earnestly Requests q. s. To
Speed Soldiers Across Sea.
National Army Troops May Go
Before National Guards.
NEED MOBILE RESERVE FORCE
Will Hold Americans Available
for Amy Front.
Claim Drafted Men Outdis'
tanced Guards in Training.

Washington, March 12.-F'rance has
made new and earnest appeal to the
United States for more speed in ship
ping fighting men across the Atlantic
1t was learned on high authority to-
day that as a result of the French APP
peal decision has been reached to SEND
abroad very soon some of the national
army divisions-men called under the
selective service.
The war departments initial plan
was to move the bulk of the national
guard divisions before calling on the
national army to supply troops Tor the
firing lines. But an inspection of the
army forces resulting from the new
French plea. has convinced army
authorities that many of the national
army divisions are in better shape
than the national guard.
The first movement of drafted sam
mics over there" is the result OF a
demand for more reserves in ant!ci-
Pc ton of the great west front actloh
expected this year.
Allies Shy on Reserve Forces.
More American soldiers, men able
to enter the trenches with but little
more training. are urgently sought.
Neither France nor Great Britain, 1t
is said have enough troops TO spare 10
meet a powerful offensive in the west
and at the same time guard against
all danger of attack from other quar-
ter.
A mobile reserve force is a vital ne
cessitv, it has, been pointed out, ana
only the United States can now iur-
nish the necessary forces to assure
reserves if French and British troops
have to be shifted to the Italian. Salo-
Mkt or other fronts that may be
threatened.
Greatest Confidence in Men.
In face of the urgent demand,
greatest confidence is expressed in the
national army troops. Their training,
officers said today, is a splendid rec
have directed the work. The national
guard has been handicapped by the
fact that large percentage of its men
had a smattering of military knowl-
edge that covered a good deal of
ground but most of which had to be
unlearned before the training in the
newer ideas of warfare could begin.
Guards Have Kick"
In th-'r own defense, national
guard officers have charged that in
filling up depleted quotas with draft
ed men, the poorest sort of soldier
material was sent from the national
army environments. These men, they
say, greatly delayed the national
guard training program. 1t is ad-
mitted that the army would prefer
to keep the national army divisions
in this country for a somewhat longer
period of training. But the German
menace is great and it must be met
regardless of the sacrifices of mill
tary policy involved.
1t is also believed here that the
movement of some of the national
guard divisions will send the second
draft men to the environments at a
much earlier time than contemplated
a month ago. Some camps will be
available just as soor as the divisions
now occupying them move out.
