Would Eliminate
St. MihieI Salient

NEW YORK, Sept. 12.-(Summary -
Cables to the Associated Press.) Amer
lean and French troops today began an
offensive on twenty-mile front in Lor-
raine, near the German border.
The movement evidently is aimed
primarily at the elimination OF the IA
nous ST .Mihiel salient, which for more
than four years has projected. into the
allied lire southeast of Nerdun
The attacks were launched on both
sides of the salient-On twelve-mlle
front on the south and an eight-mlle
front on the westerly side The as
saulrs were progressing favorably az

ceded the thrust. Heavy concentrations
Of French and American artillery and
airpIanes had been effected. The fire
poured in upon the Germans from the
allied guns was a terrific one, while the
German reply on the whole was wea6
There have been many predictions IN
unofficial quarters recently that an
American offensive movement was likely
to be witnessed this fall. and Lorraine
has been mentioned as one of the fields
for attack. The German citadel of Net
lies only some fifteen miles to the
northeast of Pont-a- Mousson, at the
easterly edge of the salient under al
tack and it. seems not beyond PROBABLE
ity that this may be a further objec-
tive of the offensive should it develop
favorable in the crushing out or ma
terial reduction OF the salient.
The removal of this salient. In fact.
would seem to be necessary before any
drive in great force into German ter
ritory on this front were attempted as
otherwise the German forces to the
west would be left in a threatening po-
sition on the left flank of the attack

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES ON
THE LORRAINE FRONT. Sept. Ia
(Reuter. French and American forces
this morning launched an attack against

The attack made by the French and
the Americans was a most daring one
and so far has been successfully

command and there seems little doubt
that adequate forces would be at the
disposal of Marshal Foch for an i'm
portant push in this sector we're the in

to Pont-a-Mousson and somewhat more
than fifteen miles in depth, with its
apex just to the southwest Of st. MI
hiel. II was driven into the French line
in a sudden German eruption south
east of Verdun early I'm the fall of
1914 before the line had become entire
~ stabilized after the Marine and Aisne
battles. The French checked the Ger
man push near ST Mihiel and prevent
ed a debouchinS movement on the
flanks The positions taken up by the
Germans were strong ones, however,
and there is on record no previous or
ganized attempt to reduce this menac-
ing bulge pointing at the heart of
France between the fortresses of YER
dun and Nancy.
Marshal Foch has caused the launch
ing of this attack almost coincidentally
with the virtually complete elimina ton
of the various salients the Germans
drove into the allied lines in their Of
fensives this year. The HindenburS
line has again become the German de-
fensive position along almost its en-
tire length and the German defensa
was stiffening materially at sll points
where the French, British and Ameri-
cans were pressing in upon them.
Another Problem for Foe
The German command now will have,
il appears, another problem to meet in
dealing with the outbreak of its foe III
another and comparatively distant quar-
ter from that in which the bulk of the
fighting has been done this year The
question will be. it seems, whether the
reduced German manpower has left
General Ludendorff with forces suffi-
cient to maintain his front from Rheims
to Ypres and at the same time beat back
a powerful thrust by the allies far to
the southeast on the battle front.
The Eindenburg line itself. however,
already has not proved too strong fo-
either the French or the British at some
points in the recent fighting. I've Brit
iSh preached it on the QUearU-Drocourt
line, and today there came the official
announcement that the British had
made further progress behind this line

defensive line had been taken by the
enemy here along the Canal du Nord

left flank as the British have forced
crossing of the canal to the northwest
of HavrincOurt and are in a position to
push up the easterly bank providing
Field Marshal Haig decides to employ
his driving force in this direction
Additional progress also was made
by the British yesterday and last night
in closing in upon ST. Quentin, another
of the Hindenburg line strong points.
They captured the towns of Nermand
Attilly and Vendelles. and advanced be-
yond Attiily, directly west of st. Quen-
tin as far as the outskirts of Holnon
wood. where they are not more than
IL miles from ST. Quentin.
