Freighters Organize.

Representatives of the international

'It is fact that three men were dis
charged from the Starr Piano factory
on account of their affiliations with a
labor organization said Paul j. Smith
of the American Federation of Labor
Monday. The fact that this is true
does not discourage us in the least,
said Smith. The government policy
is to permit organization and the men
here evidently understand that, be-
cause they are going right ahead with
their organizations. More applications
have been received since the discharge
of the three men than before 1t is
my opinion that the men will be rein
stated after the matter is settled and
paid for the time lost"

PARIS, Aug. 12-The Germans are
reacting on the allied left with a GER
tain amount of success, having had
time to get into line divisions rushed
frantically from the north. 1t is be-
lieved here the fresh troops are being
thrown into the fight in desperate
endeavor to block the allied advance
toward Nesle.
General Won Hutier, who escaped
badly damaged from the Montdidier
pocket, is trying now to halt tempor-
arily on the Roye-Noyon line He is
strong enough at the Noyon end,
where his flank rests on the Disc, but
should the British succeed in debouch-
ing from the villages Of Lihons, Chill
ly, Fransart, Fresnoy and Goyencourt
in the general direction of Nesle, Won
Hutier's right at Roye would not only
be turned, but he would be cut off
and hopelessly lost. The entire line,
it is believed here, would then go
down.
Should Won Hutier succeed in hold
ing on sufficiently to get his guns and
material away his next move probab-
ly would be back toward the Somme,
pivoting on Noyon. He would swing
his right back on the line of Nesle and
Noyon.
The Germans now are fighting for
time to make this possible and the
fighting is likely to be even more
desperate today than it was Sunday
The Germans so far have done no
more than check the allied left north
of the Avre. 1t is believed to be GER
tain that they will spare nothing in an
endeavor to push it back.

FIELD ARMY
ORGANIZED
IN FRANCE
Includes Five Corps and Will
Operate in Area North Of

velopment.
.PERSH|NC IN COMMAND
(By Associated PreSs.)

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Sunday, August 11.-Organ-
ization Of the first American field army
of FIVE corps has been completed. The
army will be commanded by General
Pershing and, it is understood, will
operate in the area north of the Marne
from which the Germans have been
driven out. The American divisions
which participated in that drive have
been under French commands but are
now included In the first army.
General Pershing, who retains his
post as chief OF American expedition
ary forces, after time may be relin-
quished from the command Of the first
army, but possibly not until the or
ganization of a second army is we'll
under way Meanwhile he will have
two headquarters. at the first army as
we'll as at general headquarters.
1t is not anticipated that the crea-
tion Of the first army will see any de-
crease in the spirit of cooperation.
While the Americans have operated
under the higher command of the
French and British recently the
French had served under Aertcan
commanders and it is expected this
interchange will continue.
Under Foch's Orders
The step is regarded as the most
important development in the organi-
zation of the American expeditionary
forces to date.
1t is looked upon as the natural de-
velopment of the 1917-1S scheme of
organization and training by which
regiments after training were merged
into divisions under full staff direc-
ton. The creation of the first army
brings a great American force under
American command but under the or
ders Of Generalissimo Marshal Foch.
The size of the army has not been
announced beyond the indication that
it contains five corps commanded by
Major Generals Liggett. Bullard, Bun
dy. reed, and Wright. Each corps Is
composed of several divisions and is
understood to include 10000 infantry
men and artillery, engineers and cav
airy in addition to auxiliary troops in
of all kinds. 1t is understood that
other armies will be formed shortly in
view of the recent Washington an
nouncement that 100000 American
troops already had sailed for France.

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 12-The
military writer Of the Berlin
Zeitung Am Mittag in preparing
the German public for further
retreat Of the German forces,
says:
'If to avoid further fighting
we are withdrawing to new posi-
tions, thereby allowing the enc
my to attack with great losses,
we are serving our aims better
than by sacrificing our best men
in an obstinate struggle for
pieces of ground. The decisive
moment has not yet come.
Therefore, all the recent fight
ing and that to come must be re-
garded only as milestones on the
road to the final goal"
Mighty efforts are being made
by the German high command
to check the allies advance
through Picardy toward Peron-
Inc, Roye and Noyon. On the
northern end of the battle line
the British have not been able
to progress rapidly during the
past night, although London re-
ports upofficially that the vii
lage of Bray has been entered.
In the center strong German
counter attacks seem to have
held up the advance against vital
points along the line. There is
an unconfirmed report, however,
that Roye had been abandoned
by the enemy.
On the right the French are
still gaining ground steadily.
They have reached the crest Of
the hill west of the Disc and
have virtually cleared the Matz
valley of the enemy. The battle
is still confined within the limits
fixed when the French extended
the fighting area to the Disc.
Hold Northern Flank.
It has been expected that the com
bat might spread along the line. es-
pecially northward, but this develop
ment has not yet been reported
Interest in the Picardy battle now
centers upon the German effort to
stabulize the front along the line from
Albert south to Chaulnes and to check
the French effort to envelop the en-
emy's position at Lassigny
There has been an enemy effort
which has met with q measure of sue
cess to hold the northern flank of
the line firmly while the allies have
pushed eastward in the direction of
Peronne and Ham. On the southern
end of the front the Germans have
been unable so far to do more than
slow down the progress of the French.
French Reach Antevol.
In this sector an important advance
is reported in the fact that the
French have reached Antevol on the
crest Of the hill west of Ribecourt In
the German drive early in June the
fall of Antevol proved fatal to French
hopes to hold the valley of the Disc as
well as the forests of Carlepont on the
east bank. If Antevol is firmly held
by the French the German lines along
the Disc II seems are in danger, and II
the French continue to gain the en-
emy's retirement from territory held
along the eastern bank of the river
may be forced.
Reports would appear to indicate
that the line where the present heavy
fighting IS going on is not the one up
on which the Germans have decided
to stand definitely on the defensive
On the contrary the present fight ap-
pears to have reached the stage pre-
sented three weeks ago when the Ger
mans made stand along the Ourcq
river and the heights of Fere- -En-Tar.
