Officials Are Proud
OF U. S. Troops Fight

WASHINGTON, March 2.-The per-
formance of the Americans north Of
Toul sent a glow of pride through
army men who today are awaiting
casualty lists. The story of the men
fighting in the snow until their am
munition was gone and then using
their fists showed the men are sea-
soned and ready to meet the German
drive. Repeated German attacks
with every form of terrifying mea-
sure causes some belief this sector
may bear the brunt Of the drive.

LUST OF CONQUEST
STILL UPPERMOST
Government and People Ap-
parently Unchanged
After 3 Years War.
(HENRY WOOD.J

! WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES,
March German big business" is
already preparing for future wars.
French MILITARY men have a copy of
a vigorously confidential memorial
the German associated iron and steel
manufacturers sent the German gov
ernment and imperial military COM
mand, demanding forcibe annexation
of French iron basins at Briey and
Longwy owing to the extreme import
ance of German national economy
and for the conduct Of future wars. a"
1t proves that business, government,
iunkers and apparently the German
people themselves are absolutely un-
changed regarding the lust of con-
quest despite their three years and a
half of war.
Iron Mines Prolonged War.
The memorial states: IF. at the
outbreak of the war the French had
destroyed their own iron mines at
Briey and Longwy basins and stimuli
taneously had shelled their iron mines
on the German side of the Lorraine
frontier the war could have lasted
only a few months. Only with iron
from the captured French mines in
these basins was Germany able to
meet the artillery needs of last year"
1t wants all French iron mines there
seized, holding that France will never
make the same mistake again, so the
Lorraine frontier must be extended to
a point where it nottonly gives Ger
many all the Lorraine iron basin but
places these outside the range of
French guns, in this way, preventing
the French from checking Germany's
future wars. Leading German mine
ralogists report Germany's iron mines
viii be exhausted in forty or fifty
years, SO the memorial adds: Let no
one believe Germany in peace time .
will be able to assure herself of iron .
reserves for future wars. During the
first forty months of war, Germany
spent over fifty million tons of iron,
steel, in a single day of war using
more iron and steel than was used
throughout the France-Prussian war.
