Washington, D. c., Mar. 10.-Ameri
can military observers have reached
the conclusion that Germany's con
slant rlassing Of men on the west
front is for defense and that the long
heralded TeutOnic offensive never will
materialize unless it develops as de-
fensiVc measure against the growing
pressure Of the allied and American
lines.
This view held for weeks by some
officers. is expressed officially today
in the war department weekly re-
view Of operations al the battle fronts.
Fresh German divisions are reported
arriving, in the west, the review says,
and the density of the enemy forces
has nearly reached the point where
congestion of lines of communication
may interfere with 1lexibility of man
euver. -,
Americans Active
The review records the first unas-
sisted American assault upon the Ger.
mans. the trench raid at dawn of
March II, when the enemy was driven
out Of his position penetrated for a
distance Of 900 yards. The Ameri-
cans now arc in the trenches along
the allied line at FIVE different points
and are reported constantly active.
Referring to Secretary Bakers ar
rival in France, the review says he
has had interviews with the principal
French authorities and is about to
undertake careful inspection of the
American schools, training areas, rest
camps and sectors at the front.
