Comparisons With Other Drives

THE speed of the German advance,
which in week covered nearly
thirty miles at its most extreme point.
is interesting compared with that made
in other drives.
AT Verdun the German advance ended
at the end of the sixth day, while the
British attack at Arras stopped on the
fifth, but neither penetrated anywhere so
deep. In the dark hours before the Marine
Joffre fell back for seventeen days at an
average Of fourteen miles day; from
Mons the British went back twenty miles
a DAY tor more than two days. Hence
the British retreat has been comparative
ly slow, after all, averaging around fonr
miles day at the point of extreme thrust
west from LIE Fere.

American PARTICIPATION

4 T THE end of a week of battle
America was unable to learn the
details Of the part which American
troops evidently had in the battle. When
the battle started certain American
troops, probably New England regiments,
were within twelve miles of the battle
area. On the fourth day of battle the
Germans reported that American troops
assisted the French in a counter attack
before Chauny, along the Disc. On the

Warfare i'm the Open

nOUBT exists at the end of the first
week of battle whether or not a
complete condition of warfare in the
open, for which the Germans were said to
be eager, really occurred in this contest.
Many details, however, indicate that it
did. For one thing, the German attack
was made over an area that the Ger

Features

Features
\ THOUGH German advertisements
Of the drive had predicted the use
Of new and horrible instruments of war,
none appeared in the first week of battle
aside from the telegraph cannon" at
lacking Paris. Rather, the Germans
simply improved upon and elaborated
we'll known methods.
The speed with which the German ar
tillery has been brought up has also at
tracted attention. Some critics suggest
that the British may not have been able
to do thorough job of destroying the
roads. Moreover, the weather has been
ideal, and the ground, long since dried
out, was in perfect condition for the
movement of heavy artillery.
The heroic stand of the British rear
guard has been the feature of the Allies
fighting, closely followed by the work of
patches pay high tribute to the stubborn
valor Of the British in retreat, their cool
ness and the willingness of small detach-
ments to fight to the last man while their
fellows retired. Time and again ar
tillerymen were engulfed in German
waves, only to continue firing. A thou
sand Thermopyl@s occurred, according
to one correspondent
Meanwhile the British fliers registered
unprecedented activity In the week
more than two hundred German planes
were brought down. Bombs by the ton
were hurled upc. the advancing Germans
and time and again airmen attacked in
fantry with their machine guns. British
and Canadian cavalry also went into ac-
ton.

Forces ENGAGED

FIGURES for the number of Germans
engaged in the b..ttle mount rapidlv
into unprecedented totals. 1t is estimated
that no fewer than ninety divisions. or
more than 100000 men, attacked dur
ing the first week and that at least two
thirds of the German strategic reserve
was used up in that time. At last &C
counts the British had put in only about
thirty-fve divisions, the French about ten
and the Americans perhaps one.

disbelief that any gun could shoot so
far, the French located it in the for
est of st. Gobain, more than seventy
miles from the capital. A fuller dis
cusslon of the possibilities raised by the
telegraph cannon" as we'll as picture
of Paris under its weird attack, is given
elsewhere in The Review.

paign, according to an announce
ment made by the military authori.
ties here today.
The party, comprising enlisted men
representing all branches of the
army and commanded by Regimen
tai Color Sergeant John j. Heffer-
nan, arrived here on a transport last
night. Sixteen will serve as loan
speakers in the New York federal
reserve district and the others will
be sent to various parts of the coun-
tr.
Six of the men wear French war
crosses awarded for gallantry in &C.
ton and all wear the good "V" for
foreign service. Many show by in
sigma on their right arms that they
have been wounded. Americans go
into battle cheering and waving
their hats, said Hefferman, in de-
scribing conditions at the Franco
American front:
"The idea was to put us on a
quiet sector when we went over
first" he said, ''but the sector did
not remain quiet long with the Am
orleans in it. They began fighting
the first minute they could and
they have been fighting ever SINCE"
"We've got a fine let of boys
Over There" he continued. "Charley
Taft, ex-President Taft's son, is one
of them. 1 have seer him under the
hardest conditions acting like the
real man he is"
"One day an order was given that
every man in our vicinity had to
have a pass" he said, adding that
"the last German prisoners I saw in
France were men who were cap
tured from an airplane!."
"The Americans had always said
that when they got the boches, they
would give them bad treatment" he
added, "but, as a mater of fact,
whenever we captured Germans, we
treated them with the greatest kind
ness. We even stole "chow" to feed
them, and gave them tobacco and
the best of everything we had.
"The officers we captured were
always bull-headed and would not
give information, the German pri-
Yates were sick of war and told us
that they wished they weren't in it.
They look for it to end in revolu-
ton in Germany, after America gets
into the war, but they don't believe
we are in it yet"

ASKS EMBARGO ON SOFT
COAL FOR MINNESOTA
MCGEE Hits Twin City Dealers chare-
ed With Carrying On Secret Prop
aganda In State

st. Paul, Jan. s.-An embargo for
go days on shipment to Minnesota OF
Illinois and Indiana soft coal has been
recommended to DR.. H. A. Garfield,
national fuel administrator, by John
F. MCGEE, fuel administrator for Min
nesota, it has just been made known.
While official announcement has not
been made in Washington, Judge Nc
Gee said that he believed it is now ef-
feStive, for fuel dealers here are find
ing it difficult to get this bituminous
coal.
In making this fact known the Min
nesota fuel administrator charged
that a group of Minneapolis and ST..
Paul dealers in soft coal have been
carrying on secret propaganda with
in the state, denouncing not only the
state fuel administration but DR.. Gar
field, government administrator.
