There is no information OK an Off
cial character as TO Gen. Pershing's
present intentions The greatest
reliance apparently is being en-
forced on press correspondents In
discussing the tactical disposition of
the American army az this time and
TO observers here this suggests that
preparations for new advance are
well under way. The logical objec-
tive. il is held. would be the occu-
patton OF the Briey iron fields and
an effort TO encircle Metz from the
west If Gen. Pershing is moving
toward that goal now. IL Is said, a
joint attack by his army and the
French army holding the Verdun
front would he a proba BILE develop
ment Such an action would be
over a very extended front. how
ever. and some further reconnais-
sance OF the enemy's positions on
the immediate American front may
taken.
Desire Maximum speed.
Tactics employed by Gen. Perish
ing in clearing up the 81. Mihiel sa-
lient IN the view Of officers here
show that the American command
err has determined that maximum
speed is essential to military sue
cess. lie hurled forward his troops
last week at an unprecedented pace
and it was this rush which swept
the German defenders off their feet
and gave them no opportunity FOR
even an organized rear guard action.
II is therefore argued that Cen.
Pershing may be expected TO press
his victory without delay and to
rush the enemy in his new lines as
soon as communicating systems can
be organized across the captured
territory.
