ALLIED OFFENSIVE
INDICATED IN RUSH
OF NEWU.S.'FORCE
National Army Men to Help
Lay Foundation for Victory
This Year.

WASHINGTON. March 1s.--strong
virIle Allled-American action on the
battle lines was forecast to. day in the
War Departments present pro-
grammc ot needing tho reported
French request for faster troop ship
ment
The thought that tho foundation for
victory can be laid in 1918 lay back
OF the plan OF hastening National
Army men over ahead OF National
Guard units, and of calling out as
rapidly as possible units OF the $780,
600 second draft.
While the hurrying OF National
Army units across now docs not mean
mat they viii have immediate action,
II Is taken to mean that the Allies
are creating a larger reserve 80 their
forces viii be more mobile.
ihat the Allies are now planning
aggressive action instead of waiting
on the Germans is the indication from
! present manocuvrcs. America will
nave greater part in this probable
action than 1t was dreamed possible
a year ago. And. II tho action de-
velops on other than tho west line
say in Macedonia or Italy--the fresh
American forces will bo available
quickly for taking over sections OF
the west line, rclea1lrg veteran forces
1. meet the foe on the new fronts.
All the drafted men sent across
cannot be so rapidly seasoned as 10
make them ready for a great military
action this spring. But before long
they could be FED into various sectors,
relieving the seasoned forces now on
guard. This process would form n
needed man power reserve. mako the
Allied forces moro mobile and serve
to meet the threat OF a German drive
in any direction.
But military authorities say that
the basis OF victory can be formed
this year IL tho Allies do not delay
until Germany has rcaped the adNun-
tagea OF tho Russian and Roumaniau
Icrashos.
Major Gen. March. Chief OF Stafr
said to-day all the speed humanity
possible VIII bo injected into trooT

Army divisions viii be on it's way
