REPORT OF CHIEF MARCH
Embarkation Of Troops Has Passed
the 1,s5o,ooo Mark, and
There 10 No Let
Up.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.]
WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-The Ameri-
advance between the Argonne and the
Meuse threatens the main rail artery
of Germany to the western front.
The United States push has taken
our forces UP to eighteen miles in
direct line from that railroad.
General March, chief of staff, point
ed these vital facts out today along
with the statement that our drive has
compelled the Germans to throw
many divisions" into its path. They
have been held there by our forward
movements.
In reporting that the 9th and 3Oth
American division participated in the
battling near ST. Quentin, March re-
vealed that PROBABLY the 9th vas
the unit trapped for a time. but later
freed, after a persistent struggle.
March officially announced that en-
barkation of troops has passed the
1850, 900 mark and that last month
shipments were at the rate Of 250, 900
men.
General March nailed reports that
troops shipments were being delayed
by the outbreak of Spanish Influenza
Men for overseas are carefully select
ed Those who have just had it or
have been exposed to it are called out
and only sound fighters are des-
patched The record of over 250,O00
the past month therefore is held all
the more remarkable.
Viewing the military situation,
March declared the news from the
whole front the past week had ''been
excellent"
The three drives begun during the
last week end, has been effectively
pressed.
Argonne and the Meuse has gone on
despite the enormous Teutonic rein
forcements.
Just west OF the Argonne forest the
French have fought their way forward
and now hold hills commanding the
enemy's supplies lines The push for
the Hindenburg line has taken the
British up to or beyond that strong
position. Two American divisions
shared in the glory Of the fighting
around St Quentin.
In Flanders a ten mile salient has
been driven into the Boche lines and
seventy-five square miles Of Belgian
territory have been reclaimed.
The allied pressure is compelling
evacuation of Ostend and Zeebrugge
and the allied forces are within five
miles of Lille.
The Boche has been pushed off the
Vesle-Aisne plateau.
Referring to the Balkan situation,
March noted that the Serbians are In
contact with yranye; the Austrians
are retiring out OF Albania: the Ital-
ians have retaken Berat and are NOV
ing toward Durazzo against which ma
val operations were directed this
week. The naval aid thus given was
extremely important TO the general
strategy of the situation March com.
mented.
