retreat of the Germans in that sec.o-.
Had the war lasted but little longer,
the Germans would have been driven
back to their own country much faster
than they are now moving.
The veteran divisions, such as the First
and Second regulars. the Rainbow, the
Twenty Sixth and other comprising the
First army, under command Of Lieuten-
ant General Hunter Liggett, and the Sec
ond army, in which there were seven div
isions in battle for the first time, under
command Of General Robert Billiard,
were carrying everything before them
when the order to cease firing came The
Argonne forest and the whole sector
Whereabouts had been strongly fortified
by the Germans during the past four
years. 1t was one of the toughest propo-
sitions along the whole line Of battle, not
only on account of it's strong fortifica-
tons, but also because the Germans threw
in the best troops they had in an attempt
to check the onrush Of the Americans
The battle was waged from September
26 until November II, and during its pro-
gress our heaviest casualties throughout
the war occurred. Accounts of the en-
gagement as it progressed from day to
day were,very unsatisfactory because Of
the censorship, but now some real stories
are beginning to come over the cables. In
the course Of time-a short time we hope
the full story of this magnificent mill
tary operation on the part of the Ameri.
can army will be told.
Field Marshal Foch called upon Gen.
eral Pershing to break the German line.
It was realized at the outset that few
divisions could not turn the trick, so the
American commander sent in nearly ali
of his available veteran troops and some
green divisions, while recent arrivals at
the front were held for replacement pur-
poses. Complete victory was prevented
by the signing of the arn.istice, but en-
ough was accomplished to bring great
glory to the American arms.
The Ninety-first division, in which are
many hundred Utah soldiers, was in this
great battle from the beginning, as part
of the Fifth corps Of the First army. The
losses of the division in killed and wound
ed were quite heavy, many Utahns being
in the list The Fortieth division, train
ed at Camp Kearny, which also contains
many Utah men as members of the 145th
light artillery, did not get up to the front
before the end came, greatly to the dis
appointment of officers and men. 9th
or recently arrived divisions were also
in training and missed their chance for
military glory, but they were on the spot
and all ready to get In had the Germans
not cried Enough"
We suppose General Pershing had at
least half q million men in reserve, SO the
rolling up Of the German line along the
Mouse was foregone conclusion.
The Americans and French are now ad.
vancing as the Germans fall back, but 1t
is fair to presume that the most Of the
allied troops would rather fight their
way than move peacefully into the terri
tory recently occupied by their enemies:

DO WE WANT IMMIGRANTS FROM
GERMANY?
With German crushed and beaten into
insensibility, from henceforth second
or third rate power; with Germany bend
ing double under frightful load Of debt
and overwhelmed with gloom; with Ger
many the prey. of the Bolshevist terror
lists, who will find it quite as easy to plum
der and murder German in the years
that are to come as it has been to rob and
kill Frenchmen and Belgians in the years
that are past--with all these things hap
pening in Germany, it may be assumed
that large numbers Of the inhabitants Of
that wretched country will make an at
temnt to leave it at the earliest moment.
Where will they go?
Surely not to any of the allied coun-
tries in Europe or to their colonies-not
just now. Not even to the new nations
that are being born out of the wreck of
Austria Hungary. Mt to any Of the coun-
tries with which Germany was allied, for
these countries will be revolutionary,
pauper lands for years to come. Is it not
therefore reasonable to suppose that
man yof them will try to come to Ameri-
ca?
America has plenty of room for imrni-
grants. America wants immigrants. AM
erica is rich. America is orderly and
free. America is easy, tolerant, long to
suffer and quick to forgive. These facts
can hardly be overlooked by the German
who has in mind to leave Germany. It is
accordingly likely that we shall very soon
have to decide what our attitude shall be
toward these people. Do we want them
or not?
Most emphatically we do not want
those German soldiers who during the
four years past have looted homes, tor
tured prisoners, raped women and bayou
cited babies. In other words we do not
want nine out Of ten German ex-soldiers.
Further, we do not want anyone from
Germany who defends now or ever has
defended the fiendish Hun fighting men
or the kaiser's barbari0us government.
Such people viii be dangerous citizens.
Given the opportunity they would most
certainly commit in America the crimes
they have committed in Europe.
Undoubtedly there are still decent men
and women in Germany. But they are
very greatly in the minority. There is
no reason why we should oppose the i'm
migration Of this class. But those who
are decent cannot object if we demand
proof Of their decency before we permit
them to come in. Their examination
should be rigid. If there is the slightest
evidence that would-be immigrant has
committed or condoned atrocities during
this war, or that he believes Germany
was in the right in her attack on civiliza-
tio2, he should not be permitted to enter
our gates.
i Our law makers and immigration auth
critics should know that the American
people feel q resentment toward the de-
vastating, murderous Hun that is implac-
able and will never cool. We want none
of his kind in this country. And if the
government fails to keen him out, there
is danger that Americas ex-veterans of
the great war will take the law into their
own hands. Salt Lake Herald
