WASHINGTON. Sept 14.-That Gen
eral Pershing will attempt further de-
velopment Of the wonderful success Of
the St Mihiel sector was the general
opinion here today. The general mill
tary view was that the opportunity
now offered IS too golden 10 pass up
with the elimination only of the ST.
Mihiel salient. Dispatches received
from Pershing Indicated the elimina-
ton Of this salient and military men
were surprised at the fattening out Of
the salient in so short a time.
They now foresee further fistten-
ing of the iron region salient.
