Future of FatherIGnd
at Stake, Hindenburg
Replies to Congratulations

Amsterdam, March 2s.-Chancel-
lor Won Hertling has telegraphed to
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg ex-
pressing sincere admiration for the
splendid deeds of our army" and

Appeal of Lloyd George
Regarded as Call to U. S.
BY fttociatf3 -

Washington. March 2S.-The ap-
peal of Lloyd George for urgent
haste in American troops movements
to France, read in New York last
night by Lord Reading, British am
baSsador, was viewed here to-day as
call TO the American people.
British officials are fully advised
as to the situation here and know
that the American government is
straining every effort TO get men to
the front and has confident hopes
of placing a force of a million or
more men in the field during the
present year.
The task of moving the men rests
as much with shipbuilders, both en-
ployers and employees, as with any
government agency. 1t was regarded
as probable that Lloyd George s
message was calculated to reach the
men in the ship yards and munitions
plants and picture for them the
urgent need of haste with their part
of the great task.
The extent of American military
aid TO the allies this year depends
on the work done in American plants
OF all kinds. The rate at which troops
are expected to go forward is largely
dependent upon the speed with
which ShiDs are turned out

German Offensive Is
Directed by Best Men
Teutons Haze Produced
BY 44Ssoci1.ed Press

London. March 2S.-The Daily
Mails correspondent at the front
says the offensive is being directed
by the best of the German generals
who won the successes in the east.
The commands are now known, -
the correspondent says, Ito be held
by General Won Kathen, in charge
OF the Peronne group: General Otto
Won Below in the sector east of Ar
ras. and by General Won Hutier.
south of St. Quentin. The two first
named generals probably are the
ablest commanders in the German
empire.
General Won Kathen was at Ypres
and on the Somme and at the battle
OF the Aisne in April, 1917. Then
ne went to Galicia, conducted the
operations against Tarnopol and as
sisted in the capture of Riga. Gener-
al Otto Won Below, who must not
be mistaken for General Fritz Won
Below, was in Russia during 1914-16
and did very sound work. Then he
went to Macedonia where he is cred
tied with saving the situation after
the taking of Monastir, and thence
back to France. Last Autumn he
went to Italy.
General Won Hutier was the cap
tor of Riga and is known to have
laid his plans very carefully, al
though in that event he had an easy
job. In some respects the dispositions
he made there were adopted for the
purpose OF the present offensive"

WITHIN SOMME
FIELD AGAIN DESERTED

British Army Headquarters in
France, Wednesday, March 81
Villages within the Somme battle
field and adjoining it have been
emptied of their inhabitants. Some
of the places, stripped of their popu-
lation once before during the bat
tie of the Somme in 1916, gradually
had filled up again during the peace
full days of British occupation. The
shell-shattered fields had once more
been put to the plow and when the
correspondent only recently toured
the old region he found hundreds of
acres of land under cultivation and
affairs in many hamlets were pro-
ceeding almost as though there were
no war.
1t seems unbelievable that these
pleasant little valleys and wooded
elevations again are in possession of
the enemy and that the cottages
stand empty.
Insofar as it was possible every
thing which might have been of use

household possessions and their dogs
and their cattle, there are few tears,

clinging to the hands of little grand
children, men stopped with years,

other great catastrophe can pro-
