Success at st. Quentin Second
airy to Northern Operations.
Main Purpose of Drive Was To
Pinch OFF Cambrai Salient.
BY J. w. T. MASON.

New York, March 23.-The British
retirement west of st. Quentin is not
an alarming symptom.
St Quentin marks the southern end
of the Hlndenburg line and is one of
the natura, strategic points where
the Germans might concentrate their
attack to improve their defense posi-
tions south o. Cambria. 1t is possible
t. devastate a limited area of any
battle front by concentrating enough
artillery fire on it. The entire trench
system cal be obliterated, thus de-
stroying the shelters of the opposing
forces and compelling a limited re-
treat.
Advance Is Limited.
This is what apparently has hap
pened in the St Quentin area. No
tellirerent has enough munitions
however. II engage in so eXtrayagant
a devastation over wide front. Else
where, the British line IS holding and
gives assurance of permanent stabil-
ity. The principal fact in the situa-
ton is the enormous slaughter of
Germans thai the present operations
make inevitable 1t would now even
be strategically worth while for the
British to make other small retire
ment5 along the front if by this
mean Hirdenburg could be entice d
in O continuing the killing of his men.
The Germans have not succeeded in
pinching off the Cambria salient. as
yet. which is the principal purpose of
their attack. The small gain at St
Quentin is of secondary importance to
the operations west of Cambria 1t
may be that the St Quentin concen-
tration was ordered by Hindenburg
so that a trifling victory might be
shown to the German people in place
of the expected Cambria success
Reserve Force Ready.
The Versailles war council has now
under its command reserve force
composed of French, British and prob
ably American troops. for use in an
emergency at any part of the west
front There is as yet no Indication
that these special reserves are needed
by the British But if sudden danger
should threaten any part of the Brit
ish front, there is this force under the
supreme allied command to come to
the rescue
