To controvert this statement the

means for the attack Thus the
French troops holding the lines east
Of the Mosclie took no part in the re.
duction Of the st. Mihiel salient or the
subsequent operations Of the Second
army. Early in November the allied
commander in chief decided that the
allies were in q position to concentrate
sufficient troops for an attack east
of the MOscl!e. These plans called
for the employment Of approximately
90 French divisions, supported on the
loft 10y six American divisions. ON
Nov. I, the next movements of con.
ccntration of both French and Ameri.
can troops We're under way, but none
of them We're in position. Captain
Livermore appears to be under the
impression that on Nov. II, General
Mpngin was in command OF the
French troops on the right OF the
92nd division and that that division
Was scheduled to attack on the i'm.
mediate left Of the French on Nov.
18th. Both these impressions are
wrong. General Mangm would have
commanded the French attack Of the
lith, but on the 11th none Of his
troops We're in the line, and General
Gerard commanded the army on the
right Of the J2nd division. The plans

third and 29th, in first line on the

advance Of the left Of the 3rd and 99nd

"On' Nov. nth parts Of the French,
British and Belgian lines. as well as
Iarts Of the American attacked and
advanced The implication that the
Americans were the only troops which
advanced or attacked on Nov. IL, is
wholly erroneous.
with reference TO your question as
to whether it was true that the
French were as regardless Of the
wastaee or men with the armlstice
in sight as We were? | must say that
/ think the language used appears TO
contain lmplicatons which are un.
warranted. Neither the French nor
the Americans were regardless of the
Wastagc Of men on Nov II. nor at any
other time were American lives need.
lcssly wasted because some Of our Of
ficers were not as consideratc OF their
men ns the French were, nor We're
American lives needlessly wasted for
any other cause, unless it be that we
had not made preparations for war in
time of peace. In 1918. the French
had been exhausted by four years Of
war. and It is true that nearly all OF
our divisions attacked with more rush.
and courage than any bat
. very few Of the best French div.s-
ions, hut this superiority Of pracu'
cllly all cr our divisions was not due
TO lack Of consideration Of his men
hy any American officer.
Il believe the above together with
the statement made during my hear
ings. covers the points raised in your
