Fears Economic Isolation

WAsHINGTON, Sept. An article
IN the Berlin "Tageblatt" by General
de Montgelas, quoted to-day in an Of

economic isolation after the war by
Joining the proposed Confederation of
Nations. General de Montgelas says:
Our fears of an economical war are
not imaginary, but have a real basis.
and to preserve the vital interests of
the German people the country ought
bravely to enter the Confederation OF
Nations and make the necessary sac
rifices. Failing this. economical isola-
ton might become a reality"

penetrated to the very vitals of Luden-

remained blu a wide retreat, which ex-
tended twenty miles north and south of
the wedge.
Positions Won at Cheap Price
This operation was like crashing
blow to a mans heart which crumples
up his defence and may lead to de-
cision. The ponderous strokes at Yer
dun, the Somme and Ypres were dealt
by heavyweights. The Arras stroke
pended upon science to kill rather than
brute force.

The new line protecting the enemy's
communication centre is four miles
from Douai and seven and half from
Cambria. 1t is not naturally strong,
but the canal offers an obstacle to the
tanks, which more than anything else
made possible the gigantic success on
the Somme. The value of canal as
defence against tanks was shown be-
tween Peronne and Nesle during last
week.
Ludendorff Fights for Time
Ludendorff IS fighting for time more
than anything else He must get a
breathing spell or see his army crum-
Bile to pieces. Haig's job is to keep
him moving and to hasten his retreat.
Ludendorff is devastating the coun-
try in the hope of impeding Allied
progress. He is shortening his line
and refusing to counter attack because
he knows Foch still has his big ace
to play.
Ludendorf figures that if he can
shorten his line. stiffen his defence and
have wide stretch of devastated coun-
try between him and the Allies he can
go into winter quarters, battered and
beaten, but still unconquered. The
American army figures little in the ire
mendous Developments of the moment.
but it bulks large in Ludendorff's mind.
He wants to avoid decisive struggle
with the half million Americans he
knows are ready and anxious to dash
into the struggle when Foch gives the
command. Ludendorff is sparring for
time.

was at Vera Cruz when the unpleasant

quieted, he got discharge. As soon as
trouble broke out on the Mexican border
he left his civilian work and joined the

sent to the border. Later when the big
war broke, he was sent with his company
to Camp Sewer. When the Rainbow Dr.

To the officers and men of the And Div.
A year has elapsed since the formation
of your organization. 1t is, therefore
fitting to consider what you have accom-
plished as a combat division and wha
you should prepare to accomplish in thu
future.
Your first elements entered the trench
es in Lorraine on February 21st. Yol

served on that front for ITO days. You
were the first American division to hold
divisional sector and when you LETT the
sector June 2lst, you had served continu-
ously as a division in the trenches for a
longer time than any other American dl-
vision. Although you en- e-ed the sec
tor without experience in actual warfare,
you so conducted yourselves as to win
the respect and affection of the French
veterans with whom you fought. Under
gas and bombardment, in raids, in patrols,
| in the heat of hand to hand combat and in
the long dull hours of trench routine so
trying to a soldiers spirit, you bore your
selves in manner worthy of the tradit
| ions of our country.
You were withdrawn from Lorraine
and moved Immediately to the Champag
ne front where during the critical day:
from July 18th to July 18th, you had the
honor of being the only American diyis
ion to fight m General Gouraud's Army
which so glorously obeyed his order, I'VE
will stand or die, and by its iron defens'
crushed the Ger man assault and mad
possible the offensive of July 18th to tn
west of Rheims.
From Champagne you were called Z
take part in exploiting the success mort
of the Marine. Fresh from the battl
front before Chalons, you were throw
against the picked troops of Germany
For eight consecutive days, you attacks
skillfully prepared positions. You captul
ed great stores of arms and munitions
You forced the crossing of the Ource
You took Hill liz, Sergy, Meurcy, FERN

kilometers. When your infantry was re-
lieved, it was in full pursuit of the re-
treating Germans, and your artillery con-
tinued to progress and support another
American division in the advance to the
Vesle.
For your services in Lorraine, your d.
vision was formally commended in Gen.
eral Orders by the French Army Corps
under which you served. For your ser
vices in Champagne, your assembled Off
GERS received the personal thanks and
commentator of General Gouraud him
self. For your services on the Ourcq
your division was officially complimented
in letter from the Commanding General,
LIST Army Corps, of July 18th, 1918.
To your success, all ranks and all SER
vices have contributed and desire to ex-
press to every man in the command my
appreciation of his devoted and courage
Gus effort.
However our position places burden
of responsibility upon us which we must
strive to bear steadily forward without
faltering. To our comrades who have fall
en-, we owe the sacred obligation of main
tanning the reputation which they died to
establish. The influence of our perform
ance on our allies and our enemies can
not be over estimated for we were one Of
the first divisions sent from our country
to France to show the world that Ameri
cans can fight
Hard battles and long campaigns lie
before us. Only by ceaseless vigilance
and tireless preparation can we fit oursel
YES for them. urge you, therefore, tt
approach the future with confidence Blu
above all with firm determination that 81
far as it is in your power you will spar
no effort whether in training or in com
at to maintain the record of our division
and the honor of our country.
