not reassuring. He is suffering

cation. In fact, there is little or

GENERAL MARCH
SEES BIG BLOW
in HUN DELAY
Germans Preparing Forces
and Filling Up Losses
For Next Move
BY associated Press

Washington, July 6.-The present
delay of the Germans in pressing at
taclls in France means only that
they are preparing new and heavy
llows, General March, chief of staff,
said to-day in his weekly conference
with newspapermen.
1T is perfectly evident" he said,
that this delay is preparatory to a
heavy assault in force by the Ger
man high command. The present
condition of affairs does not mean
anything but that they are reor-
ranizing their troops, filling up loss-
IS. ana preparing to try it again
With reference to the American
program, we have embarked n mill
lion men and now we are going df-
ter The second million"
Another indication of the pressure
under which the American program
rs being rushed to meet the Ger
man menace came from the Provost
Marshal Generals office to-day when
orders were issued to local boards TO
speed up physical examination Of
the new class one men aud have
them ready for call in August.
Statements of the draft program
made public in Congress indicated
the purpose of calling out at least
100000 men during August, though
subsequent calls during the year
were not expected to exceed one
half of that figure monthly. The
orders sent out to-day, however,
coupled with the statement by the
chief of staff indicate that hopes are
entertained at the War Department
that the present rate of moving
troops to Europe can be subsequent
ly maintained for several months
