BY CARL D. GRoAT

United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON. March 3O-Appoint-
ment Of the brilliant French General
Foch to supreme Allied command was
hailed hore today as one ,of the most
vitality important steps taken in the
war.
Complying, as it does. with the Amer
can desire for uniflcation Of command
and action, the choice Of Foch was dOu-
bly, welcome.
In his new post Foch can dispose
OF troops as be sees flt. There will
be no clashing Of commands, no work
ing at cross purposes. and no Isolated
expenditure OF man-power which
coulG be better used In unified
effort
Pres dent Wilson and American
military men have long urged that
unified control was absolutely essen
/ tlal If the allied American forces were
to be used to the maximum advantage
1 against the German autocratlc, unified
control
The terrible struggle along the west
front drove home that idea ami forced
the appointment, according to militia y
men today.
General Pershing's offer Of American
men and resources is without reserva-
| tion. In full accord with President
Wilson's views, Pershing will CO.
operate to, the last degree with the new
leader. And it Is likely that Foch
has already taken partial advantage on
the offer and viii quickly make use
I of il more fully.
Though the stragetically important
city OF Amiens Is still menaced by Gel
man maneuvers American military men
felt that the situation today Is more
promising than for several days. They
banked heavily on the French counter
moves in the Montdidier region and
relied or the new unified control TO
/ dispose Of the vast allied reserve ad-
/ Nantageously.
/ While American estimates have
/ placed the british reserve at sOO,OO0
other estimates today went ds high as
/ 100000 men.

dent or War Department. His duty lies
in obeying orders. The boys in blue
and those in gray obeyed those above
them and thereby showed the VOL
its best examples Of. loyalty. Ine
criticisms here. honest perhaps, have
none the less been severe. Our Gov
ernor did his duty and only his duty
when he presented the request tor a
Council OF Defense. Our enemies re-
ioice in iur debates and delays.
But. so far as ! have been able
to observe, part san politics have been
banished from this House. Every
member has given his utmost to the
services here. We have come to be-
lieve that this is not the Presidents
war nor the Governors war. It is not
the war of the Democratic party nor
of the Republican party. It Is the peo-
ple's war. We should stand by the
President and by the Governor, not az
individuals. not as party leaders, but
because for the time they represent
the people.
Our loyalty is placed not to persons
but to our country and its cause. here
in the House, we have done this. We
have shown our confidence in the Presi-
dent and the Governor. Over in the Sem
ate, they had trouble-as Senators usu-
ally do BYt under the mature leader

support Of the House has again set the

Mr.. Speaker, the world In after years

the American people were conducted.
Amid the unhealed and CHASTITY scars Of

Of this Republic, it behooves us as law
makers TO give them our individual and
united support in this suicidal test.

ested to see the same liberty exist
throughout the world Too old to go
back to the trench or firing line, f'el
