Marshal Foch Now Engaged
In Digging the Pocket Deeper
By ]. w. T. MASON
United Press War Expert.

NEW YORK Sept 1O-Von Hindenburg has partly
Strengthened the salient in his front west of ST. Quentin and
Marshal Foch is engaged in digging the pocket deeper
than it before by driving against La Fere fifteen miles
south of St Quentin.
If La Fere falls to the allies threat to encrce St Quentin
from the south will begin to develop This will necesstae
resumption of Hndenburgs retreat from the Somme all
the way back to ST. Quentin and eventually beyond Only
decision by the Germans to up the entire length of the
Hndenburg line Justify their retirement beyond La Fere
La Fere powerful fortress Of the second class constructed
by the French Of SERIES for the ouermo defense of
Paris.
1t has served the Germans admirably pivot for the
Hndenburg line No other position well fitted to withstand
the shock Of turning point in the front exists between La
Fere and the Belgian front If the Germans intended to keep
to the present formation of their west 'front.' they would be
compelled to cling to La Fere with the utmost enaciy In
stead of this they reported to be setting fire to the fortress
When Marshal Foch in possession of La Fere not only
the German line to the norhward but also the German
positions along the Asne will begin to fall into dangerous
wedge formations This that retirement before
the American pressure north of the Vesle will be enforced
upon Hndenbug he is to insure himself against double
attacks from the flank and simultaneously with American
frontal assaults.

Germany Likely
To Install Reforms

LONDON, Sept. "a dispatch to
the Daily News from Rotterdam to-
day says that the present feeling in
Germany is one almost of despair
and that there are good grounds for
asserting that the government, fully
realizing this, is now busy discussing
expedients for rehabilitating itself
and reviving the spirits of the peo-
pie.
It intends to reinforce its peace
offensive abroad by such action at
home as will, it hopes, temporarily
satisfy the internal demands and at
the same time deprive of its sting
the entente criticism that the Ger
mans are mere slaves in the hands of
the Hohenzollerns and the Junker
caste. A usually well informed au-
thority says that steps of a very de-
cided democratic nature are to be
taken shortly in Germany.
