F OCH STRIKES
To BREAK DOWN
GERMAN ARMY
Allies Seek Decisive Defeat of
Huns Before They Re-
tire to Defensive Line
on Frontier.
BY HENRY G.. WALES.
News Service:


WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
IN FRANCE. Oct. 1.-The conflict
now raging on the western front Is
not a struggle for positions nor to
gain terrain, but is a gigantic bat
tie between the German and allied
armies. Gen. Foch is striking to in
lict a decisive defeat upon Luden-
dorffs forces.
The mammoth engagement Is en-
tirely different from any other bat
tie Of the war on the western front
because the allies have not massed
all of their best troops and all of
their available artillery at any single
point or at any few points but are
battering forward everywhere from
the User to the Meuse against the
enemy masses.
Will Drive i'm Wedges.
The Germans must fall back at
various points to avoid being utter
ly smashed thus permitting the al
lies to drive in deep wedges result
ing in a realignment OF the entire
front
While practically the entire front
is afame, Hindenburg cannot shift
troops because he is menaced every
where equally. He must throw them
against the oncoming allies until his
forces are shattered and then with
draw the survivors as best he can.
II must be remembered that the
struggle is more or less OF a man 10
man fight as the forces now are re-
lativcly equal and Foch's wish is 10
nail the enemy in the present posi-
tlons and beat them there instead
OF driving them back TO their inter
Tor defense lines. To drive them
back would shorten the front and
thereby give the enemy forces
greater density.
Resistance is Expected.
Thus the resistance opposing the
Americans between the Argonne and
the Meuse is entirely according TO
expectations as Ludendorf is push
ing up fresh divisions, continually,
which he can i'll afford TO spare in
view OF the tremendous blows being
inflicted at Champagne, Rheims. the
Chemin des Danes. st. Quentin.
Cambria and in Flanders.

SUMMARY
of War Situation

With Germany's back door open
ed by the collapse of Bulgaria, the
allies renewed their blows on the
western battle front today, captur-
ing more villages and closing tight
er the circle Of steel around the
German bases Of Cambrai and St.
Quentin.
The French renewed the battle in
Champagne, capturing the villages
of Binarville and Conde les Aulry
which are very close TO the scene
of American operations in the Ar
gonne forest sector. 1t is indicated
by the extension of French pressure
eastward that the French and
American armies may join up in
combined drive when the next blow
falls against the Germans lett wing
The attack last week was made with
the two armies cooperating, but
they were not linked. being separat-
ed by the Argonne forest.
Three more villages were taken by
the British on the Cambrai-St. Quen-
tin front. With the British in the
outskirts Of Cambria there are
strong indications that the Germans
are evacuating the plain as Field
Marshal Haig reported the city in
flames today.
Americans have played a brilliant
part in the latest phase Of the Brit
ish drive on this front.
In Flanders the Belgium and
British armies are reported 10 have
taken the great German base at
Roulers. This would be a serious blow
to the Germans Not only would il
shake their entire Flanders front
and probably compel them 10 give
up their submarine base at Ostend,
but would open the way for attacks
southwark in the direction Of Lille,
behind the extreme northern end of
the Hindenburg line
Notwithstanding the signing Of an
armistice on the Balkan front furth-
er hosrilities are reported there to-
day. The Servians have continued
their advance, taking more villages.
The general advance in the Balk-
ans at last reports was in three di-
rections: Northward through Ser
via: northeastward towards Sofa
and eastward against the Orient
railway. the only direct line OF COM
munications connecting Turkey with
the central empires.
The breakdown OF Bulgaria has
aroused great unrest in Turkey and
riots are reported in ConstantiEOple,
with the pro-German leaders trying
10 keep the war-ridden empire In
the war
There is further cause for Turk
ish perturbation in the new advance
by Gen. Allenby's British army in
Palestine which is now almost in
Damascus With Damacus in their
hands -he British will be III a posi-
ton 70 drive on the main lines OF
