PERSHINC SPEEDING
ARROW THRU BOCHES
By J. w. T. Mason
Famous War Expert

NEW YORK. Oct. e.--Gen.
pcrshing Is widening his front
north OF vcrdun In an effort TO
advance toward the Luxembourg
border with an increasing impetus.
The Americans have heightened
their operations to the east OF the
Meuse and by doing so are now
able TO bring up moro troops and
to concentrate n greater force
agninst the Germans in the Ar
gonne forest.
up to the present time. the
Meuse river has been a consistent
menace to Gen. Pcrshing's right
wing. as the Argonne is a danger
10 his left.
The ~ miles OF frontage between
those barriers has compelled the ut
most care In the disposition OF the
American units. and has seriously
hampercd the tactical operations.
Drive Foe Backward
Tho Germans on the east bank
Of the Mcuse are now being driven
backward for perhaps one-half the
depth OF the American front north
OF Verdun. The Meuse, therefore.
is at least in part, an American
possession instead Of a German bar
rier.
The continuation of pressure on
the east side OF the river will great
ly assist the American movement
to reach the Grand Pre- roadway,
running thru the Argonne massif.
More freedom OF maneuver viii
be possible, and there will be less
need for caution in guarding
against German attack on the
American right
The early evacuation OF the Ar
gonne has become increasingly
necessary for the Germans II has
been forced on the attention OF
Hindenburg by this time that the
Americans have n disauieting habit
OF suddenly rushing forward their
objectlvcs. taking thousands OF pris-
oners. before the enemy has com
pleted his pondcring about vol
untary retirement.
General Pershing Is making such
disposition of his forces as TO sug-
gest the possibility OF Just such a
lurch into the Grand Pre- road. II

The United States did not enter
into this war unadvisedly. hastily.
under stress of heat or passion. We
took the step calmly. soberly. reluct-
antly. with full sense of the awful
responsibilities involved, the sacri-
fees demanded the magnitude of the
task.
President Wilson did not advise i'm

act in declaring a state of war be

many without giving the most sol
emn consideration to what the action
meant. They knew il meant the
death of thousands of brave Ameri-
cans: they knew it meant suffering

cost.
