American Headquarters IN Lor-

sumo that the Americans in obllter-
ating the ST. Mihiel salient reduced
the enemy'.s strength By the equiva-
lent Of four divisions. The victory OF
the Americans was due to German
inferiority in numbers and a greater
inferority in morale.

POLISH ARMY ORGANIZED.
; WILL JOIN FIGHT IN RUSSIA.
More Than One Hundred Thousand
Trained Militarists Available for
Important Tasks.

Harbin, Saturday, Sept IA (By tie
Associated Press).-A movement ex-
ceeding perhaps that of the CZecho-
Slovaks is being organized to form
a Polish division to fight in Siberia
westward to their oppressed father
land as integral units in the American
army. According to conservative es-
Inmates an army of more than 100000
trained militarists is Immediately
available in the regions Of Harbin,
Nikolsil and vladivostok. Large
corps of railway men also can be
utilized if necessary to take over the
Chinese Eastern Railroad. The funds
to be used in creating the Polish
army are to be considered loan to
the Polish people or their govern
ment
1t is believed that if the Polish or
ganization is successful the Ukrain-
ians will begin a similar movement
and because of the close relation

Poles it is considered possible that

politics and their only desire is to
fight for their own country.
The Poles have asked that they be
promptly granted recognition by the
United States government so that
they may aid in opposing the spread
Of German aggression as we'll as win
their own freedom. Entente allied
officials here see three benefits to be
derived from the encouragement of
the Poles. First, they say it would
