Napoleon Made Careful Study of Art of War

Napoleon's coup d'oeil and the light
ming flash of his genius is well Known
but there was far more in his cam
paigns than coup d'oeil or the most
brilliant of Improvisation. 1t was the
result-the result of genius in sys
tematizing data-of long and painful
study not merely of the technicalities
of his profession, but of it's divine
parts" of which he found details in
the theoretical work of his predeces-
sors and in the campaigns of those
who alone are his rivals. There was,
as Professor Wilkinson shows, moth
ing miraculous about that first cam
paign. Napoleon's own special gifts
amounted to genius, especially his
of men and his swift
ness of decision, but his peculiar
grasp of the art of war was the result
of long study and meditation. Before
he was in command in Italy he had
written the memorandum that forms
the basis of his campaign. a memo
randum which laid down the condi-
tons of success and was derived from

to the end, and that our program had
been seriously interrupted by conces-
sions already made.
| called attention to the fact that
the railways all over France were on
the point of breaking down for lack of
men TO repair rolling stock; that our
ports would be hopeless!y blocked I'M
less we could improve the railways !;
that his plan would leave US 100000
men short to complete combat units
and fill up special organizations that
were absolutely necessary in the S. O.
s., and, finally. that the restriction Of
our shipments to infantry and ma
chinegun units would be a very dan
gerous and short-sighted policy.
To much of this he paid little or no
attention and replied that all these
things could be postponed.
Wanted Wilson Informed.
Graeme Thompson, British expert on
transportation and supply. came into
the room at this point with Mr.. Lloyd
George and General Sir Henry Wilson.
and took part in the discussion. Mr.
Lloyd George said he thought Presi-
dent Wilson would be deeply interest
ed to get General Fochs view of the
situation. and added that as America
had no prime minister present he
thought it would be incOnvenient for
us to make a decision. but that this
subject should be brought before the
whole council.
l then called attention to a cable
from Secretary of War Baker. already
quoted, showing that the President had
been much embarrassed by represen-
tations made to him personally by the
French and British ambassadors. and
had suggested that the matter might
be settled by a conference between
General Foch and myself. | pointed
out that the cable did not mention
the supreme war council. and | again
stated my opposition TO making the
subject one of general discussion by
all allied representatives and their
stats.
l did not fail to point out further
that the President was trusting my
judgment in this matter. AS nothing
was being accomplished and hoping
the number of participants in the dis
cussion might be limited, proposed
we adjourn until the following day.
Pershing Again Answers Foch.
The next afternoon when we as
sembled NJ. Clemenceau was waiting
for the rest of us, and instead of there
being fewer conferees the number had
increased. Not unlike the situation at
Abbeville a month before. everybody
was keyed up, and, as we had expect
ed, the question had to be fought all
over again.
General Foch supported by NJ. Glenn
enceau and Lloyd George, wanted
nothing but infantry and machine gun
ners in June and July, TO which | was
strongly opposed. again insisting that
sufficient Importance had not been at
tached to my reasons for the necessity

allies and proposed the continued ship
ment from America of nothing but in
fantry and machine-gun units in June
and July, in effect 100000 in each
month. Every one realized the gravity
of the allied situation as strongly as
he did, but, as previously and per-
sistently contended by me, there were
two sides to the question.
Foch Becomes Excited.
was prepared TO make some con-
cessions and stated my views, but
neither facts nor arguments seemed
to make any impression. General FOch
especially was very positive and
earnest. and, in fact, became quite ex-
cited. waving his hands and repeating:
"The battle, the battle; nothing else
counts"
With equal emphasis l urged that
we must build up our organization as
fast as possible to carry on the battle
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1931-08-14

of the auxiliary troops omitted in
June
Foch resorted to his often-repeated
question whether 1 was willing to take
the risk, to which replied very posi-
lively that was ready to assume any
responsibility my proposal might en-
tail. but that 1 must have a greater
proportion of other TROOPS to keep the
American organization from going to
smash.
Men Called in May Unframed.
Other objections, which the allies
apparently overlooked, were that the
unframed men called out in May could
not possibly be ready for service until
a considerable time after arrival, and
that neither the French nor the British
could provide all the equipment and
land transportation they would need.
In accordance with my program, was
willing to agree to the shipment of
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1931-08-14

fully trained infantry not needed for
the instruction of new drafts, but felt
that this point should be left to the
judgment of the secretary of war.
Mr.. Lloyd George then concluded
that as a consequence July would be
a blank, and in rather detected tone
he said the allies were in sense in
the hands of the United States. He
spoke of the generous and chiyalrous
attitude of President Wilson, and said
all they could do was to acQuaint him
with their needs and call upon him
to come to their aid, more particular
ly to the aid of France at the period
of the most terrible extremity that she
had yet encountered.

CHAPTER XIII

The sixth session of the supreme
war council was convened June l, 1918.
The important matter of further ship
ment of American troops was taken
up.
AS already indicated, it was my opin-
ion that neither the character of the
troops to be sent over nor their dispo-
sition was within the province of the
council to decide, but that these ques-
tons should be determined according
to circumstances and after discussion
with the allies.
So l objected to their consideration
by the council, as such, and suggested
a meeting outside the council, which
was approved.
Accordingly, in the late afternoon,
General FOch, Lord Miner, British war
minister, General Weygand and l, with
Colonies Conner and Boyd, met in the
premier's room. General Foch began
by stating the serious condition of the

relief that the worn and tired French
army, retreating before vastly superior
numbers, caught sight of Americans
arriving in trucks at Meaux and march
ing thence on foot, hats off, hurrying
eagerly forward to battle. And the
Germans, who had been filed with
propaganda deprecating the American
effort and the quality of their train

doubtless rather disconnected by meet
ing strong resistance by Americans on

the second striking confirmation of the
wisdom of training troops for open
warfare.
Rer.ies to French Criticism.
After the success of our troops we
were in no mood 70 listen to self-ap-
pointed critics. M. Andre Tardied
called on me upon my return to Paris
and undertook to point out that our
staff was inefficient and offered criti-
cisms of our organization. AS this was
something he could not possibly know
about, | replied that he had got an en-
tirely erroneous impression and that
our staff was second to none in either
ability or efficiency.
advised him that we had quite
enough of this sort of thing from the
French, either military or civilian, and
suggested that if his people would
cease troubling themselves so much
about our affairs and attend more
strictly to their own we should all get
along much better.
l did not fail to appreciate M. Tar
deus ability and his helpfulness on
many occasions, but this constant in
clination on the part of a certain ele-
ment among the French TO assume a
superiority that did not exist then or
at any later period, added to the at
tempts of some of them to dictate, had
reached the limit.

70 TONS Of NARCOTICS
ENTER ILLICIT TRADE
League Secretariat Reports Figure
in Five-Year Period From
1925 to 1929.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
GENEVA, February 7-Seventy-nine
tons of narcotic drugs escaped into IL
licit traffic during the five years, 1926
20, inclusive, according to an analysis
of drug statistics made by the Secre-
tarlat of the League of Nations and
made public today.
The analysis was made for use of the
narcotic limitation conference, which is
to be held in Geneva next May.
The committees report expressed
deep concern that at a moment when
"this grave situation" had apparently
been remedied, new danger of the
first magnitude had appeared as the
result of the manufacture, on a very
large scale, of morphine and heroin in a
country, Turkey, which Is not a mem
Der of the League of Nations or party
to the opium conventions"
In connection with the reference to
Turkey the report mentioned a letter
shown to tn committee by the repre-
sentative from the United States, j.
Kenneth Caldwell.
It was said to be from a Turkish
manufacturing concern to an American
firm and, offered to supply whatever
narcotic drugs were required at prices
varying according to whether the de-
livery was effected under the conditions
laid down in the Geneva convention OF
independently Of any convention.
Turkey has signifled its intention to
participate in and cooperate with t1G

AMELIA EARHART IS MARRIED
TO GEORGE PALMER PUTNAM
Romance That Began Before Transatlantic
Flight Ends In Brief Ceremony at
Explorer Mother Home

The romance was born of mutual ad-
miration and mutual love for danger
and adventure. Back in 1923 Putnam
making a search on behalf of Mrs
Frederick Guest for an aviatrix to fly
the ocean, selected Miss Earhart, then
Boston social worker and amateur
flyer.
Explored Baffin Island.
On June 1913, 1928, she wrote her
name indelibly in the annals of heroic
ar exploits by flying from Trepassy
Newfoundland, to Burryport, Wales,
with the late Wilmer D. Stultz and
Lou Gordon as members of the crew of
her plane, the Friendship.
Putnam's delight in strange, faraway
places sent him in the schooner Fife M
Morrisey to within TOO miles of the
North Pole in 1926. The next year, &C
companied by his young son, David Bin
ney Putnam, he explored Baffln Island,
Both trips were rich in scientific re-
suits.
Miss Earhart, in applying for the
license, said she was 80, 10 years
younger than Putnam. The publisher
and his first wife, Mrs. Dorothy Binney

Joseph A. Burkart, president, eSti-
mated the damage at $150000, with in
surance of $4,000. Fire Chief George
S. Watson tentatively fixed the loss at
but $4,000. Difhculty in reaching a
definite figure was occaSioned by the
fact that only cursory inspection had
been made of what remained of in
tricate machinery used in the manu-
facture of milk bottle caps.
AS the blaze was near the Capitol;
several members of Congress were
among the thousands of spectators at

Fire Kept From Spreading.
Flames shot high into the air, and
huge pillows of smoke lowered over
Capitol Hill as flremen battered their
way through windows and doors and
succeeded in preventing the fire from
spreading to adjoining structures. In the
process, Walden Guinan, a private of
No. Is Engine Company, was slightly
cut on the back of the head, and Her
bert Stokes of $40 c street, spectator,
was overcome by smoke while aiding
the firemen. Both men were treated
at Providence Hospital and permitted
to go to their homes.

black smoke was unusually offensive,
because it came from half a carload

pressed by E. j. Grayson, general man

odd employees had been dismissed for
the day about an hour before the blaze

Explosion Not Traced.
Although a minor explosion was re-
ported to have rocked the building in
the early stages of the fire, investiga-
tors were unable to locate any one
who heard such blast. 1t was believed
the noise might have come from the
