N'KV\ YOHK. Feb. 25.—Secretary
| Hiker's announcement that the United
5 -Slates will soon have half a million
i troops in France, means that General
i I Pershing will be able to conduct of
■j fensive operations on a front of twenty
; miles, w hich is approximately the max
4 imum desired in trench operations,
i A properly conducted offensive re
4 quires the use of six thousand troops
a per mile, for the first series of for
ward movements. A major advance
t along a front of twenty miles should
J necessitate an army of 120,000 men,
w iih more in reserve. General Persh
ing could undertake operations of this
magnitude if he had five hundred
thousand men under him, and allow
at the same time for the adequate
I !■ 'Iding of the trenches on both sides
of the offensive area, with a strong re
m ivc lorce to make good casualties.
fter the first half million Ameri
< ns got into action, it is not probable
i Hi 1 those actually engaged in fighting
will exceed that number for at least a
ye r Tim newcomers will lie used to
iiil up depleted ranks, and to act as
reserves. France has not more than'
. two million men actually in the
trenches and this number can be ae
I cepted as the probable maximum of
her present fighting strength. For
| America to send an army across the
Atlantic equal to twenty-five per cent
of tiie French forces and keep that
army up to its full strength would be
' one of the most remarkable attain
ments in military history.
At the same time, it will be neces
sary for America’s half million to co
operate intimately with the French
forces in the sectors near the Ameri
can zone if the chantves of full victory
are not to be thrown away. In Lor
raine, opposite the American trenches
^ tho German general staff is concen
•rating a new army to oppose the1
Americans
Germany had not more than one
thousand men to the mile along the
Lorraine front previous to the arrival
of General Pershing In France. Since
then, von Hlndenburg has given deep
attention to the problem of defending
German soil against an American of
fensive. For this reason, there must
be intimate Franeo-Amerlcan co-opera
tlon, despite General Pershing's ability
to take the Initiative alone. A sus
tained offensive is necessary to wear
down Germany's new forces in Lor
raine, and that Is possible only if
French and American troops work to
gether.
