Official statements, indicating that new German divisions are being pour ed into this sector. clearly shows the anxiety of the German high command over the situation. General March, commenting today on the military sit uation, brought out very clearly the efforts the enemy is making to meet the American advance.
 Tn front of our own troops in the Argonne," he said, "a very large mass of German troops has been cOncen, trated since it is imperative for the enemy to protect the railroad line which runs from Mezieres to Metz. '
 General March PoinIed out that the front held between the Disc and the Mouse by the allies roughly par allels this great railway system throughout its length and threatens it at all points"
 From other sources it was learned today that more than 30 German di- visions have been identified in the narrow sector northwest of Verdun, where American and French forces continue to work their way slowly TUT dIut uG6Bll6 DllNC4 AtSAotlhNN anu strongly fortified enemy positions.
 The French have obtained a flank ing position on the east bank of the Aisne river in the western outskirts of the forest of ArgOnne, while to the east of the Mouse the operations of American troops indicate that the line is being extended and strengthened in preparation for a wide assault when the enemy defenses have been suf- ficiently reduced. There is good reason to believe that some part of the sec. Ond American army is holding this eastern extentiOn of the Verdun front.
 At no other point on the whole western front. with the exception of the center arch of the line, from the Serre to the region of Valenciennes, are the German forces massed in strength comparable to that being em- ployed on the Mouse. The operations of the British and French to the north, it is pointed out. bear a di- rect relation to the situation on the Mouse, since the enemy cannot spare reserves from the center in the face of the drive to back up his hard press ed left flank It is this, coupled with the improving tactical situation in the Argonne, that leads observers here to anticipate the beginning at any time of a new drive on the Mouse front.

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE. Oct. 26, 2.3O p. m.-(By the Associated Press.) - The operations begun Thursday between the Disc and the Peron rivers by Gen.

 Mortiers, occupied by Gen. Mangin. was one of the strong supporting points of the Funding positions north of the Serre. The French troops all along the battle front have had to face newly strengthened positions, from behind which were the same number of lines of trenches. fortf fled with concrete and deep armored shelters characteristic of the German field works.

UNDATED WAR LEAD, (By the Associated Press. s.)-Germany's hard pressed soldiers are being given no rest as the British, French and Amer ican forces continue with success their drives on important sectors from north of Valenciennes to east of the Mouse. Meanwhile, the Italians are pushing ahead in the region of Monte Grappa.
 On the northern end of the front in France the British maintain their pro- gress in encircling Valenciennes. In the center the French have shaken se- riousiy the German defenses along the Serre and eastward toward the Aisne at Chateau Porcien. The American troops east and west of the Meuse not only hold their gains against strong enemy reactions but have further strengthened their position north of Grand Pre-.
 South of Valenciennes Field Mar shall Haig is across the Valenciennes- Le Quesnoy railroad and the fall of Le Quesnoy which is vital to the de- fense of Mons and Maubeuge would appear to be at hand.

Special to The Rey-ew1


 COPENHAGEN, Oct. 26. - The socialist newspaper Vorwaerts of Berlin says it does not understand whether complete internal reform on the part of Germany would make the terms of surrender easier. It con tinues:
 Tn any event, MT. Wilson errs if he believes the former holders of power in Germany can ever regain their power Henceforth, there will be no power in Germany but that of the German people. Our opponents who demand the disarming of the German people must realize that a great nation cannot permanently be rendered defenseless. lt will be demonstrated at the peace conference whether the war has been merely ad- journed or finally ended"
