OF Carl E. Milliken, Republican
and Bertrand G. McIntire, the
Democratic standard bearer,
was so close as to cause party
leaders some anxiety. The
vote of the small towns, many
of which were received late,
was strongly Republican, how
ever, and the Milliken plurality
grew rapidly as these were tab
ulated and by midnight his
election was assured by a close
to 1000 votes. Two years ago
Milliken was swept into office
by a plurality Of nearly $4,000
votes after the state had been
under a Democratic regime for
two years. In the cities alone

Washington. Sept. 9--With the
German army standing today sub
stantially in the positions it occupied
before last March Il when it's great
est offensive was launched it appears
certain to officials here that the next
few days will see the plans of the
opposing commanders revealed. The
stateme1t in the Official German
communication that our new lines
had everywhere been occupied is
given one construction only Ap-
parently it was intended to mean
that the retirement had come to an
end and that the Germans expected
to stop the Allied advance along the
old front. In that event, il was said
today, the light forces IF tho French,
British and American armies viii

l-aNickiy show hoy Marshal tQeh here
proposes to assail the problem thai
bafIied the French and British gen
eral staff-the breaking of this adj
vanced line of defense set UP by the
enemy on Belgian and French soil.
1t was evident from todays re-
ports that the Allied forces were
still feeling their way forward care
fully through the rear guards, ma
chine gunners who still cover many
portions Of the enemy's present
fighting front. Behind this screen
the Germans were believed to have
reoccupied the old Hindenburg de-
fenses which probably have been re-
paired and supplemented so that
they are again forming formidable
barriers.
There is feeling among some that
the enemy is very likely to signalize
hi. intention to stand pat by striking
back hard at the advancing French
and British forces even by an attack
at some other point designed TO re-
lieve pressure rather than to achieve
any decisive results on the way of
capturing. towns. 1t is argued that If
the German high command has made
available a sufficient reserve force by
the great withdrawal to permit such
operations, a limited drive possibly
on the front held by Gen. Pe~shing's
army beyond Nerdun might we'll be
thought advisable.
on the allied side. it remains to he
seen whether Marshal Focll plans 4
fanking operation on wide front to
turn the enemy out on his new lines
and keep him moving back. or viii
continue to hit weak -p0t all along
the front Opinion here is that the
larger enterprise is the more pro-
hable. since virtually the entire
American army is available as n

TO deliver a coup aimed at the break
