This has been the enemj's policy for
some time, owing to his Increasing
dearth of men after the Allied attacks
on s.o many parts of tho line He
gives his troops nu n-st or support

he stiffens them with material of bet

Sept. 19,
The news of President Wilson's re
jection of the Austrian peace feeler
has moused tho greatest enthusiasm
ln tho American nrmy, which Ins Just
begun to fight nnd would regret keenly
the calling off of war before It can
make fuithcr nnd larger efforts.
The nrmy lg beginning to realize Its
power and nothing would cause
greater dlsmnv In the ranks of out .
fighting men than any steps which
would he taken at this time to In
terfere with the materialization of its

army wants to make tho Go-man

lepentant and achieve Amei lea's pur
pose to end Prtissianlsm Each dough
lov" has this Idea and hopes that
diplomacy will not Inteifere with it
I was at the front with a regiment
which has been in tho fighting wnen
news first came that Austria would
like to do something to call off the
war In American slang came fiom
all sides tho exclamation "What a
fat chance'"
If Austria hoped to make any lm
presslon on the American army and
If Germany, through Austria, hoped
to affect our fighting men hy peace
dickers the Teutons made n fatal mis
take by placing Austrian dlv Islons
against Americans. Before that was
done the Ameilcan doughboys were
vciv sure that the Germans were their
enemies, hut were sllghtlv hazv about
the Austrian Some of them actually
did not icalize that America was at
war with Austila. Bin after they
found themselves fighting tho Atts
trlans the situation became veiv cleat

between the Germans nnd the Aus
ttlans Therefore, our ranks are very

With the French Armies. Sept. 19
What does tho French army really
think of the Americans?
Phrases such ns "they are magnifi
cent," or "they fight splendidly," which
are the Frenchman's usual reply to this
question, are agreeable to hear, but not
particularly Illuminating ns an estimate
of our troops from men who have
learned In the hard school of experience
to appreciate military qualities.
I have discussed tho subject both
previous to and slnco tho St Mlhlol
battle with French soldiers of all ranks,
from generals commanding the armies to
simple pollus That the composite opinion
thus formed contains certain elements
of criticism only adds value to the uni
versal and enthusiastic approbation
Sincerity and unmixed praise larely go
hand In hand
To begin with. France's soldiers have
nothing but good to say of the Amer
icans as Individuals Tho genuine and
old-established sympathy, proffered by
the French at the outset, has ripened Into
something bordcnlng on affection.
"Your men are so young, so keen, bo
friendly," said one veteran sergeant
'How can we fall to like them? Kven
tho language question, which might have
seemed a bnrrler, forms an added bond
of svmpathv How can we feel but
friendly toward a oungster who Is so
anxious to be a friend with us that he
scorns all fear of appearing ridiculous
(the worst handicap of the equally well
disposed Briton) in the strenuous effort
to 'get together' by the Indiscriminate
use of his whole French vocabulary?'
That fact can be taken for granted;
the doughboy has won a warm place ln
the heart of the French people
Americans Rate High
But how does our arm as a military
machine strike the French professional
soldiers' The opinion, given me jester
day b an ofllcei who haseen the Amer
icans at work In this and other battles,
answers the quettlon most favorably.
"I rate the Americans very high In
deed," he said 'even higher than some
of my comrades who reckon experi
ence as of cardinal Importance Giant
that the Amerlcins lack the four years'
war practice which has made the
French, British and German armies
trained and efficient soldiers But that
very thing Is not the least factor of
the American strength
' Other armies know the game too
well They are less ready to take
risks, have tho ingrained feeling, for
instance, that they must never outrun
the barrage, even when it seems over-
slow In moving forward
'.S!mllarl, when the enemy's fire
rcachea a certain pitch of Intensity, one
must take cover Instead of pushing on
Your men nre different: they go ahead
all the time The fact that for the
first time In this war a salient has been
pinched with a big force of the enemy
still Inside It does not count for noth
ing, remember
"Evidently 5 0U are hampered by In
sufficiently experienced officers The tend
enfy of this war has been to throw
responsibility more and more on the
b.Ojttallon commanders The battalion
has become a regular miniature divi
sion, with Its own light field guns, trench
mortar batteries and rlflo grenade and
mitrailleuse sections ln addition to tho
Infantry proper. The slightest error
on the part of tho battalion commander
can havo grave results
Officers Are I earning
'That you cannot help, and, anyway,
tho deficit against jou Is dally grow
In less as your officers are learning by
experience.
"A private can be trained pretty ade
quately without hearing a shot fired
But, except In rare cases, the success
ful officer requires knowledge that comes
of war practice "
Another criticism wan that the co
ordination was not always perfect be
tween the artillery and the Infantry.
Tho most helpful criticism I received
was In respect to the transportation
service It 1s almost tmposslble to
realize the difficulty of finding one's way
In the maze of French by-roads, espe
cially when an army Is advancing and
sign-posts are nonexistent Such French
territorials as are on tho roads are
generally unable to give the proper di
rection, even when, as rarely happens,
the American sergeant or lieutenant In
charge of the convoy Is able to make
them understand where he wants to go
Kany to I.on the Road
In my own trips I had plentiful ex
perience of how easy It la to lose one's
way, oven when accompanied by n
French officer expert In reading maps
This difficult Is greatly augmented at
night, when It Is necessary to drive i
clumsy camion on a bad and perhaps
a shell-torn road without lights or
former knowledge of the country.
"One cannot over estlinato the Im
portance of this matter," said an offi
cer of the French transport service who
had been on tho Job since 1114. "A
train of guns or a load of shells that
goes astray, or missing supplies for
regiments, may hold up the advance
at a vital point any moment I would
suggest that as far as possible Ameri
cans send with convojs officers expert
In reading maps and able to talk French
"At the same time I would like to pay
a compliment to your drivers, who
simply are Inimitable For years we ad
mired tho skill of the Ford ambulance
drivers, but tho way jou fellows navi
gate huge camions literally takes one's
breath away And yet the percentage
of accldentB Is certainly no higher than
ours This Is not the least of tho feath
ers In the cap of tho American army."
