In progress for the last foi might at
a number of points along tho line as
shown by the reports of men "killed In
action" Mhlch General I'eishliig lias
sent forwanl. The repoit or the light
also shows that .Secretaiy or War Baker
knew what ho was talking about when
he told the Senate Military AffaliH Com
mittee that tho American fotccs soon
would give a good account or themselves,
Tho fact that National Guard soldiers
vcre engaged shows that tho ltalnbow
Division and the New Ilngland Division,
which it was announced some time ago
had been landed in France, have com
pleted their preliminary training and
now nre a real part of tho fighting
forces assembled on tho olher sldo.
Tho War Department still withholds
any announcement or petsonnel of tho
new units sent forward, althougli It
had no objection to the publication yes
terday of the fact that all of the tcized
German liners had made tho trip across
and all of them tarried troops. Hut It
was pointed out that Secretary IJaKer
told tho Senate Committee that the ad
vanced units of tho ii.gul.ir army, tlio
national guard and tho national, army
were to have an equal chance against
tho enemy. Ah a matter of fact, olll
clals said today, tho prcssuio from tlio
National Guard divisions, which me topi,
pletely trained, and tho National Army
organisations, which nie neally rtady
to be sent across. Is ciy intense.
Through their olllcers, their political sup
