Americans Broke
 Through, Says Haig

London, Jan. 9---American troops were the first to break the linden burg line, according to the Daily News, in its comment yesterday on the report of Field Marshal Viscount Douglas Haig on the operations from the end of April last to the close of hostilities. The first mention of break through contained in the Field Marshal's report was in the course of his description of the days work on September 29, in which he wrote: (''North of Bellenglise the Thirtieth American Division, Major-Gen. F.. M. Lewis, having broken through the deep defences of the Hindenburg line, etormed Belllncourt and seized Nou- roy. On their left the Twenty-seyenth American Division, Major General OhRyan, met with very heavy enfilad- ing machine gun fire, but pressed on with great gallantry as far as Jony, where a bitter struggle took place for possession of the village. The fight ing on the whole front of the Second American Corps was severe, and in Bellincourt, Neuroy. Gillemont Farm and a number of other points, amid the intricate defences of the linden burg line, strong bodies of the enemy held out with great obstinacy for many hours.
 These points of resistance were gradually overcome either by the sup port troops of the American divisions or by the Fifth and Third Australian divisions"
 Field Marshal Haig pays a high tribute to Marshal Foch. Commander in-Chief of the allied armies, and also to the "splendid fighting qualities of i the American forces" In concluding his report the Field Marshal wrote:
 "If the complete unity and harmony of our action is to be ascribed to the justice of our cause, it is due to the absolute loyalty with which that cause has been pursped by all those entrusted with the control of the diff ferent allied armies which fought side by side with ours"
 The report takes up in detail the fighting on various parts of the Brit fish front, which, the Field Marshal states, was carried on as a part of the grand plan of the campaign laid down by the Allied High Command.
 Major Gen. Sir Frederick B. Mau- rice, formerly Chief Director of Mil. hary Operations at the War Office commenting in the Daily News upor the report of Field Marshal Haig, says:
 The British commander justly claims that the decisive effort of the whole campaign was the battle o1 CanIbrai from September 27 to Octo- Der 5, in which the British First Third and Fourth armies broke through the vast defences of the Hin, denburg system. This victory broke Gen. Ludendorffs nerve and was tho cause of the first appeal to Presiden Wilson for an armistice, and it brok, the morale of the German people,"

man. II was capital before Abra-

By Gable to The Star and New York
World. Copyright. 1913.
LONDON. October 4.-Keen anxiety
is felt by hotel men here in view OF
the threatened invasion by Americans
Several American hotel men ara here
sizing up the situation. To compete
successfully with an up-to-date Amer
ican hostelry it IN felt to be necessary
to emulate modern American methods.
Only a comparatively few London
hostelries. even now, can boast of
such commonplace conveniences OF
New York hotels as room telephones.
Through the great acceleration of the
cocktail habit, most American bars
are now seriously overcrowded and
to cater to expected American patron
age in the near future it will be nee
essary to enlarge these bars. for it Is
fully expected there will be a thj'sty
stream arriving from the other side,
once cellar stocks have been absorbed.
England is a rippling lake of tser
and strong drink compared to Sahara
like America. Nobody here need go
thirsty If he has coin in his pocket
So great is the demand for beer that
certain breweries are sending it
around in great barrels and shooting
it through a hose into tanks in the
saloons-wood or metal tanks, of
course.
