HUN FORCE WANES
Future Onslaughts Cannot De-
velop Power of Recent Blows.
Losses and Longer Lines Use
Up Hindenburg's Reserves.
BY ]. W. T. MASON.

New York, June 6.-Whatever Sec
tors Won Hindenburg may choose for
his next sacrificial offerings of Ger
man man power, the future onslaughts
cannot develop the power of those
that have passed, because Germany's s
reserve forces have now been depleted
to a highly serious degree.
Since the beginning of the German
spring offensive on March 81, Won
Hindenburg has lost at least half a
million of his reserves. These have
been used up both by furnishing new
men to replace casualties and by
taking over the active protection of
the extensions of the German front.
1t is improbable that Won Hindenburg
now has in reserve more than 100000
troops, and the number may not ex-
ceed 100000.
Longer Lines Absorb Reserves.
This is enough for another effort
to shatter the allies line, but it is not
enough to permit any degree of per-
slstence in such an attempt Each
failure to break thru or to reach n
vital point now becomes a dangerous
handicap to Won Hindenburg, if he
gains a few miles of territory. Every
extra mile of frontage taken over by
Won Hindenburg requires the with
draWal OF six thousand men from the
German. reserves for it's protection.
And yet, however strategically wise it
may be for Won Hindenburg to be-
gin to shorten his line at non-essen-
tial points. he fears to do so because
OF the effect a retiring movement
would have upon German opinion at
home.
Advantage Is With Foch.
Extra miles of entertainments re-
quire a similar weakening of Cen
eral Foch's reserves, but the ulti-
mate effect is far different for the
allies, because they are not yet on the
offensive. The depletion of Won
Hindenburgs reserves in order to
guard an extension of the front
means weakening of Germany
rlnal effort to win the war by often
sive tactics. But it would suit Gen.
eral Foch's tactics, perfectly if all OF
his own mobile reserves were to be
used to man new lines of trenches
provided similarly fixed duty were
enforced upon all of Won Hindenburg's
mobile reserves

100000 To CAMP
Total Draft Calls for June
Reach Big Figure.
Expect to Comb Many Out of
Classes 8 and 4.

Washington. June 6.-Four hundred
thousand Americans will enter train
ing camps this month. With call
for 100000 drafted men today, cover
ing the closing days of the month. the
total was brought above 100000 and
calls expected this month will reach
the 10000 figure, it is believed.
This Unexpectedly large call is a di-
rect result of the speeding up process
in sending troops overseas.
The war department is developing
plans for the first "combing out"
within classes three and four. The
proposal is to weed out men for class
l whose claims to exemption are not
sound.
1t became known today that Presi-
dent Wilson is carefully studying
compulsory labor laws of Maryland
and New York. 1t is believed this is
a forerunner of extension of the work
or fight order.
