BY GENERAL FOCH

PREVENT GERMAN STAND ON

AMERICANS MAY Be USED
Should General Pershing Strike SUD
denly Toward Metz and Meet NTH
Success, 1t Is Thought Enemy Will
Evacuate Whole ST. Mihiel Ben5.

Washington. The hour when
General Pershing's army will Be
thrown into the battle is rapidly ap-
preaching, in the opinion of many Oh
fcers and officials at the War Depart
ment.
Developments indicated TO these OH
servers that the German withdrawal
is near the point when Marshal Foch.
should make use of every available
weapon to prevent the enemy from
making a stand in his old position
along the Hindenburg line.
Reports from the front Indicated
that the Germans are Fastening their
withdrawal along wide front before
the French and British armies that
are on their heels. Apparently the
enemy leaders feel that the line is
Strengthened out sufficiently to with
draw to the old we'll fortified lines
from which they launched their great
drive last March. The fact that the
British have broken across the old
line on the Doua-Cambrai front is
regarded as the spur that is impetl-
ing the Germans to rush the last stage
of their withdrawal.
It. is argued that IL the enemy at
tempts to hold the Hindenburg line or
such Of it as he can, he will have 10
mass reserves TO do it. A new at
tack, far to the south and east of the
present battle area would compel nim
also, to rush reserves to that front
and it is in such an attack that many
officials believe that General Perish
ings army will be employed.
Many officers think an attack may
be launched there with the object OF
turning the whole German line north
ward and that probably a simultan-
eous attack would be delivered De-
yondi Verdun, where the original
American sector lies, to complete this
conception of a wide turning move
ment against the enemy positions in
northern France.
The ST. Mihiel salient, where the
German lines thrust forward beyond
Verdun On the west, might offer
chance for Fochs favorite pincer tao
tics, some officers think. There ere
indications that this front is held by
Americans with the exception of the
defenses of Verdun and the lines
southeast of that city. II General
Pershing should strike suddenly to-
ward Metz and meet with any success,
it is. thought the enemy might be
forced to evacuate the whole St.
Mihiel. bend

Smoke is valuable weapon In this
