men to Advantage in
Big Drive.
PROVE GOOD FIGHTERS AFOOT
Aides 80 Miles In Day and Relieves
Hard-Pressed British In Flanders
Makes New Place for
Self In Warfare.

Misunderstanding use of French
cavalry has marked General Foch's
tactics ever since he took ove control
of the allied armies as supreme COM
mander, according to information
reaching military circles here. The
horsemen have played an important
role in the whole battle of 1918, as
the struggle which began March 81
with the first German drive has come
to be known.
The employment of swift-moving
columns In the present commensurate
from the Aisne-Marne line has been
noted In the dispatches. Again Cen
eral Foch took advantage of the great
mobility of the mounted arm to throw
1t In wherever his advancing infantry
units threatened to lose touch with
each other in the heat and confusion
of the contest. No gaps have been left
where the enemy might strike back,
for always the horsemen came up to
fill the hole until the Infantry line
could be rectified and connected in a
solid front.
The same tactics marked the first
use of French cavalry in the battle of
Picardy, when the French took over
So miles of front from the British
to permit the latter to mass reserves
at seriously threatened points of the
line farther north.
