Washington, April General J..
]. Pershing in cable 10 the war de-
partment has just made what was ill.,
terpreted as an announcement that
divisions Of U. S. troops would short
ly join French and British troops in
communicating the Germans.
Foch Given Supreme Command.
Washington, April 1. - General
Foch, the French chief of staff, has
been appointed to supreme command
Of all the Allied and American forces
in France, according to official in
formation which has reached Wash
ington
The first hint of the historic devel-
opment came in press cable dis
patches telling how General Pershing
had placed the American expedition
airy forces at the disposal uf the
French commander. This was con.
tirmed in message from General
Pershing to the War Department.
Pershins's Message.
General Pershing's message, made
public by Major General March, act
ing chief of staff, follows:
Have made all our resources
available and our divisions will be
used if and when needed. French
are in fine spirit and both armies
seem confident.
Announcement of General Foch's
appointment means unification of all
the armies opposing the Germans, a
step which the American and French
military men long have urged and
which apparently has been brought
about by recognition of the impera-
tive demand for concentrated effort
to hurl back the gigantic thrust of
the enemy in France.
With the troops General Pershing
has placed at his command, General
Foch would have, in addition to the
men on the actual battle lines. a
| strategic reserve force, the size and
location of which is not known, but
which from recent reports probably
is large. This force all along has
been expected to strike the blow
WHICH may denver knockout 10
the German offensive.
President Is Advised.
1t was learned that the President
had been officially advised of the
action when he sent cablegram to
General Foch congratulating him ION
his new authority"
There was no explanation at the
White House of what the President
meant. 1t is understood that there
will be no official comment here un.
til after an announcement comes
from France.
In his message to General Foch
| PRECEDENT Wilson said:
MAY / not convey to you my sin
cere congratulations on your new au
thority; such unity of command is a
most hopeful augury of ultimate sue
cess. We are following with pro
found interest the bold and brilliant
action Of your forces.
