Headquarters, American Troops ~
France, March BY Associated Pressl
American troops on still another place
ON the French front have been raided by
the Germans. who were repulscd with
lHscs. This is the first time IL has been
permitted To mention this engagement
The Americans have entered the battle
line in certain place in Lorraine.
Washington. y. C., March Amer
lean troops are now holding something
over eight miles of trenches ON the bat
tie front in France. il was learned yes
tcrday, although IN an airline their front
age Is only about four and half miles.
This frontage is liable TO extension at
any time to the regular trench allotment
for an army corps
Irregularity of the French lines is re-
sponsible for their eight miles of front.
They are laid out so that thanking fire
may be obtained along every part OF the
front. Strong points containing machine
guns iut out for this purpose. The
trenches also follow closely any protec.
tive slope of the country and wander up
and down hill
The American sector is understood to-
be a divisional frontage, which means
that at least three divisions of troops
are there to give the necessary support
in depth for the front lines. This fact
has aroused speculation here as TO who
will be selected by General Pershing 10
command the first corps of his army.
Major General Hunter Liggett is known
10 havs acted in that capacity, but as
yet tlp expeditionary commander has
not made any recommendation.
1t is possible that the French system
would be followed in the American army

nanders goes. If the French practice is
adopted, the grade of lieutenant general
