GEN FOCHS ELEVATION IS
LONG-DESIRED ARMY STEP

urge the coordination of all allied ar
mics under a single commander. Such is
known to have been President Will
sons desire when his urgency caused
the creation of the supreme war coun-
Gil. Some measure of coordination was
secured through that body. but any
plan for appointment of a supreme
comma nder with authority over all the
armies, French, British, Italian and
American, met strong opposition in
England. The recent crisis, which
threatened the Lloyd George ministry,
arose from the extent to which the
premier had gone in merging the Brit
ish forces with those of Britain's allies.
To quell the parliamentary disturb
ance. the government found it necessary
to announce that Field Marshal Haig re-
NAMED in supreme command of the
British army In France, and that only
certain British forces had been con-
tributed to the military pool. some
times described as the strategic reserve
Of the army of maneuver.
Now it is assumed that the needs OF
the critical hour have won over the
British cabinet to complete unincation,
making 1t possible to meet the Ger
ton and centralized authority that
have given the enemy an advantage
throughout the war.
AS to what is to be done with the
American troops in the emergency. War
Department officials are frankly igno-
rant. They are to be employed as the
French commander deems best and re-
CARELESS of the sectors they now hold
or the region assigned for complete
Americanization under previous plans.
To all intents and purposes the Amer
lean forces would become an integral
part of the French army. with which
they share supplies. There probably
will be ne statement now or later as to
the number of Americans sent to the
Picardy front.
Today's developments will have vi
tai bearing on what Is to happen soon.
