made to hasten their preparation
in both staff and line in anticipation
of an early call for more serious serv-
ice.
1 inspected these troops June 19-22,
1918, and my impressions were favor-
able, although a number of officers
were found unfamiliar with the prin-
ciples of tactical leadership. In such
hastily trained units this was hardly
surprising, especially in view of the
known defects of the instruction at
home, E 223 )
Many were found with but slight ap-
preciation of the natural defensive
possibilities of a given position. Some
battalion and even regimental com-
manders had not thought to ascertain
the exact location of their front lines,
and of course had failed to work out
the details of preparation against a
possible attack.
My predilection for detailed instruc-
tion in minor tactics, growing out of
my personal supervision of training in
both small and large units, led me
quickly. to discover deficiencies.
My diary notes the establishment of
the military board of allied supply at
this time, June 22, 1918. It was ex-
pected to study questions of supply
and adopt proper measures for the co-
ordination of allled resources and
utilities. \
Col. Charles G. Dawes, who had
charge in a more limited sphere of
the co-ordination of our own supply
departments, was detailed as the
American member of the board.
Lauds Courage of Negro Troops.
. Cables from the War department
June 22 stated that the colored people
at home were being told that negro
soldiers in France were always placed
in the most dangerous positions, be-
ing sacrificed to save white troops,
and were often left on the fleld to die
without medical attention. It was not
of propaganda. As a matter of fact,
none of these troops had been in line
except in quiet sectors. Those I had
recently seen were in fine spirits and
seemed keen for active service.
The only colored combat troops in
France were those of the Ninety-sec-
ond division, then in a quiet sector in
the Vosges, and the four infantry regi-
ments of the Ninety-third, each at-
tached to a French division. Several
individuals serving with the French
had already received the croix de
guerre for conduct in raids.
Clemenceau at Chaumont.
Prime Minister Clemenceau, General
Foch and M. Andre Tardieu, with Gen-
erals Weygand and Mordacq, came to
Chaumont June 23, 1918, for a confer-
ence on the increase of American man
M. Clemenceau’s popularity in
Fran t its height. As
this was his first visit mont, |
the people turned out en masse, crowd-
ed into the plaza and gave hima a rous-
ing welcome. His reception within the
hotel de ville by the officials, civil and
military, was marked by eloquent
speeches. In his remarks M. Clemen-
ceau gave the people every encourage-
ment, making special reference to the
increasing forces the Americans were
sending over.
As we were leaving the widowed
mother of a missing soldier, her only
son, came up in great distress and
told M. Clemenceau of her sorrow. He
spoke tenderly of her patriotic sacri
fice, put his arm gently around her
and kissed her cheeks, mingling hi
tears with hers. The pathos of this
touched every heart.
As General Foch and the others
were not arriving until later, M. Clem-
enceau and I, driving together, ac-
companied by Generals Wirbel and
Ragueneau in a separate automobile,
went to the headquarters of the
Eighty-third division, Major General
Glenn commanding, which was billeted
at Montigny, not far from Chaumont.
We fell to discussing the probable
situation of the various allied coun-
tries and their relative standing after
the war. M. Clemenceau went to some
length in his cenjectures. ©
Thought Britain Finished.
“Great Britain is finished and in my
opinion she has seen the zenith of her
glory,” he said. ,
“What makes you think so, Mr,
Prime Minister?” I asked.
“miprst of all,” he replied, “the im-
mense drain of the war will make it
impossible for her to retain commer-
cial supremacy, and, second, the ex-
perience of her colonial troops in this
war will make their people more in-
dependent and she will lose her con-
trol over them.”
I could not agree with M. Clemen-
ceaw’s view and said: “Mr. Prime
Minister, I think you are mistaken
about the British, and I believe we
shall see her fully recover from the
effects of the war.”
Continuing, I asked:
France's future?”
“Ah! She will once more be the
dominant power in Europe,” he replied.
“But you do not mention Germany,”
I rgguinded him.
He replied: “The Germans are a
great people, but Germany will not re-
gain her prestige and her influence
for generations.”
Discuss Troop Shipments.
Shortly after our return to Chau-
mont, Generals Foch and Weygand
arrived and after lunch we all went
into conference. The continuation of
shipments up to one hundred divisions,
as already recommended by the prime
ministers, Lloyd George, Clemenceau,
and OrPando, formed the basis of
French argument.
The whole subject was thoroughly

Chateau-Thierry, between the French
front and Paris.
The British seemed to think the
French unduly nervous about the safe-
ty of Paris, and that Foch was hold-
ing a greater proportion of American
troops behind the French lines than
necessary. They believed there was a
strong probability of another attack
against their front, and felt General
Foch was not paying enough attention
to their situation. However, they
probably did not realize that a coun-

French Hospitals Deficient.
As to hospitals, when our troops be-
came suddenly engaged in the Cha-

largely upon the assistance of .the
French to care for our wounded. Al-
ugh they had given us every assur-
ance hospital arrangements for
those operations complete,

we had organized that we were able

hospital accommodations for our
troops was about to reach a critical
stage.
In this connection a cable was actu-
ally submitted by Mr. Casper Whitney
from the New York Tribune which was
scathing in its denunciation of our
medical department. The censor im-
mediately informed the medical repre-
sentatives at my headquarters, and
General Ireland, the chief surgeon, re-
quested an Investigation, which was at
once carried out by the chief of the
inspector general's corps, General
Brewster. Mr. Whitney was asked to
be present at all the hearings, and
when the actual facts were brought
out, showing the efficiency of the medi-
cal department, he was most apolo-
getic and thereafter was an enthusi-
astil ‘supportt of the wisdom of the
censorship.
