British Ruler congratulates President
On American Victory.
London.-King George has sent a
message of congratulation to Presi
dent Wilson on the victory won by
General Pershing in the St. Mihiel
salient.
The Kings message read:
"On behalf Of the British Empire
heartily congratulate you on the bril-.
liant achievement of the American and
Allied troops under the leadership of
General Pershing in the st. Mihiel sa.
lient.
1.-THE far-reaching results secured by
these successful operations, which
have marked. the active Intervention
Of the American army on a great scale
under its own administration are the
happiest augury, for the complete and,
I hope, not far distant triumph of the
Allied cause"
Premier Lloyd George has sent the
following message from Manchester
10 General Pershing at the American
front:
Il desire to offer to you and your
brave armies heartiest concentrations
on your great victory.
'"The enemy has made many mis-.
takes in this war, but none greater
than when he moderated the valor,
determination and intrepid spirit of
the brave soldiers from the great
democracy of the United States. Now
that he has tested the mettle of the
American armies, the enemy knows
what is in store for him.
THE news came to me on my sick
bed; 1t was better and infinitely more
palatable than any physic."

der himself. 1t is hot stulf.:s
With the French now taking mp the
fight in the center Of tho great area
which comprises the western front
from Arras to Verdun, It IL considered
entirely probable that the next move
of the American Army IL dependent
upon the results Of this offensive. An
advance Of any importance by the
French will threaten the stability Of
the famous Chemin Des Danes ridge
and to 4 less extent will effect the St.
Gobain massif, upon which the new
defenses Of the Germans seem to be
based.
Collapse Of the German position
at La Fere and Laon would mean a
considerable retirement and there is
every reason to. expect, officers say,
that Marshal Foch would. take quick
advantage Of the resultant confusion
to press an encircling campaign
against Metz itself, employing both
General Pershing's army and the
French forces at Verdun In develop
ment Of the movement In that event,
a double American thrust is antici-
pated, one in cooperation with the
French east Of Verdun and the other
aimed to pass Metz on the opposite
flank.

American Army Headquarters
Nothing could better illustrate the in.
creas;ng weakness of the German
arms than the ease with which the
Franco.American force entrusted with
the task advanced in the St. Mihiel
salient. 1t is true, the operation was
admirably planned and carried out, but
one rarely has witnessed anything like
the ease of that first days fighting.
There was, of course, a barrage.
but not very terrific affair as bar
RACES 60. After the barrage there
was nothing very startling in the way
of gun fire, and the machine rattle
produced quite an effect, but only COM
ing now and then.
All the while the Americans were
going forward with the steadiness of
food, trickling into woods on one
side and passing out of them on the
other, spreading about a village and
overwhelming it, and breaking against
hill or mountain and gradually
working over the top. They moved
like something worked by clock, but
always well ahead of schedule. Rain
soaked and slipping about in the mud.
they still went forward, while back
along the flood came long lines of gray
blue creatures who had been swamped
in its course.
Whatever way one looked there
were sure to be Germans-men as
fine as you could wish for, or crea-
lures so poor that their presence in
the line afforded the most damning
proof of German insufficiency in man.
power.
The mud had proved too much for
many Of the tanks, and the rain
storms had swep. the airplanes out
of the sky. but still the Americans
went on. with just the booming of
few big guns behind them and
melting away of the enemy in front.
