First Americans Appear

Meanwhile American troops had appeared in the fall Of
1917 the 'front.' between Metz and st. Mhiel If am
not mistaken this the First American Division In the
limited engagements of the fight for position the troops had
fought well and expery both against German attacks and
in their patrol undertakings in fighting
and in mans land between the lines
The prisoners who fell into hands healthy strong
welnourshed well properly clothed and equipped
sodiers They considered themselves called crusade
against German miltarism, which had dominated its
people and sought to enslave the other nations this mill
trsm that had strobe from act of violence to another
without least restraint think that this conception has
now been greatly softened
The part taken by the troops of the United States from
June 1918, onward had decisive military effect. In the
beginning of this month two American divonsthe Second
and Third, twice strong in numbers of infantry
German divison-opposed the German forces which had
broken through north of Chateau Thierry. -
Here too, the troops fought WELL though take
into that tendency of the infantry press
closely together is of greatest important to note the
effect Of this attack upon the French army.
The description Of Pierrefeus offers the same time
striking picture of the characteristic difference in bodily
and physical constitution of the soldiers of the European
Powers and Of the United States in far he gives
the impression Of this magnificent American Youth these
beardess youths of twenty superabundant strength
health just lately enlisted when compared with the shrink
ing, thin hollow-eyed French.

At the time the utilization Of an advance

with many difficulties which cannot always be overcome

Both the leaders and the American troops Of all armies

conducted with energy and SKILL and the resistance

their losses steadily without abandoning their objective All
the troops showed themselves better in attacking for the
attack the essential element to soldiers who thirsty
for achievement the Americans.
Thus in my opinion the best character of the American
soldier showed itself in attack They advanced patiently and
unflnchngy against the enemy infantry and artillery fire.
which merely tended.t to stiffen their advance.
Their strength Of body steadness of and resolution
of heart helped them their encounter with the moral dis

The American soldier certainly carried his crusade to
excellent conclusion.

STRUGGLE TO SAVE ENTENTE,

their desire to revive the old ego
istic instincts Of England.
Everywhere, in all parts Of the
globe, France finds English agents
working against her interests, de.
feating her policies, overriding her
Justifiable wishes and ambitions.
Whether It be in Syria, in Pales.
tine. in central Asia, in Persia, in
China or elsewhere, tho representa-.
tives Of France find representatives
Of Great Britain already on the
ground to oppose them.
Nearer home, in Italy and in
central Europe, whenever France
adopts one policy. England prompt.
ly adopts the opposite. II France
supports Poland. England regards
that country with evident Ill will.
Consequently Frenchmen have
begun to ask. why should there
be an entente? II those who were
our trusted allies have become our
enemies. II they do not wish Ger
many to pay US, but rather to
prevent our being paid: II they do
all in their power to isolate US
why not remove our masks? Let
US separate and each go his way!"
II this is what Lloyd George de.
signs, he Is on the point Of accom-
plishing 1t. We see clearly enough
that he has maneuvered to isolate
France; indeed, a France complete
ly isolated and heavily indebted to
England would be completely at
that country's mercy. But this is
q thrust that can be easily parried.
. Closer relations between France
and Germany, or at least direct
negotiations between the two gov.
ernments independently of Eng.
land and consequently against her,
have been much debated of late,
not only in England and Italy, but
even In Germany and France.
Such q program may appeal to our
cabinet Machiavellis.

old days when international af-
fairs were run by professional

The attack proper took place early September 2e with
great bravery The service of the American artillery

marched forward in heavy columns upon the greatly weak
ened German troops Their losses, of their
method of advance must have been extraordinarily heavy
notwithstanding the weak resistance.
