GREAT ALLIED RESERVE
CHIEF OF STAFF CONFIDENT OF ULTIMATE UNDolNe OF HUN BY HUGE FORCES GATHERED TOGETHER BY LIBERTY LOVING PEOPLE OF THE WORLD
lBy Review Leased wIrel

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4-Announce- ment today by General March that more than 1,6OO,O00 American troops had been embarked for all fronts up to August 3l furnished a new measure of the forces Marshal Foch has at his disposal with which to follow up the victories already won on the western front
 Included in the American shipments are men sent to Italy and Siberia, the arrival of Major General Graves, American commander at Vladivostok, with nearly. 1400 men of the forces dispatched direct from the United States having been announced today by General March. The total number of men sent elsewhere than to France however, is less than 10000 leaving more than a million and half Amer joan troops available for the use of the supreme commander in the great battle.
 The size of this American force be- comes increasingly important as the scope of the new British assault at the very center of the German line on the Douai- Cambrai front becomes appar- ent. In the opinion of army officials the breakdown of the German lines on this front may prove the entering wedge for allied successes of a sweep ing nature.
 In his mid-week conference with newspaper men, General March re- viewed the battle situation of the last three or four days, noting particular ly that the British in the most impres- sive phase of the battle east of Arras had smashed their way across the Hindenburg line on an eight mile front with Cambrai as their objective. The major enemy resistance along the whole sixty mile battle front from the Scarpe to the Disc, he said. had been encountered and overcome by the British and the swift advance of the French troops last week. when they

LEAVE VESLE FIELD
AMERICANS AND FRENCH AD- VANCE AS HUN FALLS BACK
 TAKING POSITIONS DoMINAT- ING THE AIsNE AND GREAT Po- SETON OF cHEMIN DIES DANES

UNDATED WAR LEAD.-(By
 The Associated Press. .)-The Ger
 mans now are giving ground over
 the entire 150-mile battle front
 from Ypres to Rheims.
 Seemingly the question whether
 the Germans will be able to hold even relatively, their recent line
 from Flanders to Champagne, is
 being answered. And the answer
 apparently is negative.
 Marshal Foch's strategy, which
 imposed on the Germans the ne
 cessity of falling back in Elan
 ders. Artois and Pieardy, is com
 polling the enemy to withdraw
 from the Vesle between Soissons
 and Rheims, northward toward the
 Aisne
 Outflanked on all defensive works along the western part of the battle line and in great danger of a turn ing movement eastward from the re- gions of Noyon and SoissOns, the Ger man high command has been forced to begin the retrOgrade movement in the Soissons-Rheims sector. Military experts long predicted this would be neeessitated by the allied successes.
 The climax to the German maneu- vers along the Vesle eliminated when the French swept away a portion of old salient in the region of Noyon and the French and Americans north Of Soissons and along the Vesle reach ed positions dominating the Aisne and and the Chemin Des Danes and cross- ed to the north side of the Vesle on a front of nearly twenty miles.
 All behind the front toward the Aisne huge fires are to be seen where the enemy is making his way as fast as possible northward, in all probabii- ity harassed by outposts of French and American troops and by artillery fire and the machine guns of the al- lied aviators.
 While the debaele in the south seems complete in the north the Ger
