I W TO DECIDE A I Foch Will Conserve Reserves in Effort to Hold Balance Near End WEARS DOWN GERMANS SeemS Ccrtftirt "British and French Troops Can Hold Ridge Near Yprcs '"' Washington, April IT. TYle German drive menacing tho chan nel pari a Is forcing tlic Allien to lira great cffortB to check tho foe. This memtco Is so serlons that in stop the Gerrnaps Is the most to ho expected for soma tlie, and It Is certain thera will ho no major Allied countcr-oITcurltc fur the present. American and foreign army men here today agreed on these points following! Teuton enpturo of tho tactically Impor tant. iMont Kemmel. The Allies particu larly warned that tho outcome of tho present offonsiio will not he determinant, but. that tho rtruggle will go on for many, many month mull the Allied! strength Is grcatcj thruugli rc-cnforce-ments. I Thesa re-enforcements must come, ' mainly from America, and It Is a mill-1 tary axiom that the last frrsh man wins the battle. Hence, as nrmy men saw It today, It i up to America to become ultimately iho dcelslvo factor. Rrrmnm Aim Al Yprrs Von Hltidrnburg undoubtedly thlnk ther.e Is a chance for a vital Mi-tory over the British In the Yprcs section and so tho. German Is maklpg that his main ef fort. Mcantlmo tho struggle in the Amiens sector, where the Oerman fares poorly to date. Is chiefly a holding action to keep the Allied reserves widely dis tributed. Teuton capture of Mont Kemmel, com manding a view of the Flanders plain and a hey to the hills before Ypro, makes, u frankly serious situation. The British declare, however, that the final word has not been said there et while It appears certain they can hold on as long as ilio have the greater part of Wytschaet ridge. Should that go u re tirement would follow necessarily, army men think. Foch'a strategy thoroughly approved by American oillclals is to wear down the German as much as tHissihle. Allies Call On ltrsrrrcs There can be no mistaking that the Allied rescrio has been heavily tupped for forces simply to hold the icrmans thus ' far And this tapping quite evidently has been to serious that fresh forces must be hurried In before the Allies can even think of making a telling counter-t-troke. American forces are going over there In , constantly increasing number". Ital ian rc-eitforcenicnts are being pushed to tho -westward, anil Urltlsh resents arc pouring across thn channel. So when Von Hlndehburg has exhaust ed his main strength and slaughtered an Incomparably largo force of his own men, Foch will havo the fresh men who win battles Theso men will be, con ceivably. Americans, mostly. And strong and eager, thev will be elllclent In tho open striving that now proceeds, army men declare.

A moment before ho had refused to answer uny questions. "I am following my policy of work without .anv talk, as suggested In a newspaper editorial," ho said. To dl- rect questions he said, "I havo nothing I to bay. indnaling that so fnr as lie: W concerned, information to he given the public about housing plans Is a ' dead Issue i The party will remain at the Bristol) shipyard until late this afternoon. That j a thorough Inspection is contemplated Is i indicated by tills ract, as Sir. Schwab remained but four hours at Hog Island yesterday the biggest shipbuilding plant In the countn . On Monday he will continue his In spection tour, going through the yards of tho New York Shipbuilding Company, Camden, and other plants nearby. Schwab Murli l'lruurd Mr. Schwab Is much pleased with the work being done here and elsewhere1 on whip construction. Is optimistic very much bo and declares Hog Island work men to be the "most enthusiastic lot" h has ever encountered. These observations are tho result nf a two-day inspection trip of shipyards in this section the first he has made In his capacity as the nation's olllclul shipbuilder Ho looked over Hog Island yesterday and today ho Is at Bristol. Will Arrange Mrrl Deliveries There lias been a delay in the work duo to lack of steel," declared Mr. Schwab, "but I think I can remedy that. I think I can fix It up with tho steel men to deliver what we need within u. short time. There Is still a lot of con struction work to. be done, but I am enthused over the prospects. "I visited tho Westlnghouso turbine works at Ksslngton, for I feel this work Is equally as Important ng construction work. I found everything progressing satisfactorily. "I am very optimistic you can say that. t"I never havo seen such a group of enthusiastic people a the men working on ships. I have found them extremely congenial and anxious to rush the work. Tfes, I am very, very optimistic." "I was delighted with the progress made at Hog Island. It was one of the largest operations I have ever seen In aJJ my experience, I only ask the peo ple to havo patience, and I know they will be rewarded. Golnr Ahead Speedily "There la considerable construction work: to do. but they, are going ahead a,bout It In a very thorough and speedy manner. I have no doubt the steel peo ple will do their part, and that we will Jiove no delay from that end of the work. "During my stay at Hog Island I made an off-hand talk to the men I met Mt luncheon, and I never saw a finer organisation of enthusiastic workers than they are. You must state that It lis a tremendous undertaking and that ifrcy are doing a tremendous work."

Tho War Office yes ttrday gave out the following. The attacks by General von Arnlm's army against Mont Kemme; led to a complete success. The height Itself, looking far Into the Flanders plain. Is In our possession. Tho French divisions Intrusted, within the radius of the Urltlsh troops, with the defense of Mont Kem mel and English troops adjoining them at Wytschaete and Dranoutre were thrown out ot their positions. The largo crater of St. Klol and the place Itself were captured. Numerous concreio nuu.cn uiiu .uimicu. lamis situated in the lighting area were cap tured. Prussian and Bavarian troops took Mont-Kemmel and the village by.storm. We captured Dranoutre and the height to the northwest of Vleugelhoek. Battle squadrons attacked with great success the rear communication roads of the enemy, which were crowded with parts and columns of men. Ah tho result of yesterday's battle, more than 6500 prisoners have been reported up to the present. The ma jority of the prisoners are French, and there aro one English and one French regimental commander among the captives, South of tho Somme, Vlllers-Bre-tonneux.
