This safe and sp> edy arrival of sensoned fighting men .. France Is a triumph of American -kill and efficiency. Without any publicity, the troop* Were assembled, embarked on many vessels and taken through the German submarine aone without an accident to mar the success of the great operation. That these trooji* and the thousand* that are to follow them carry all their own supplies make* them a net gain for the allies. The United State* feed*, clothe*, arm* and equips them without making a single demand on the French or the British. General Frrahlng tn* prepared everything for tbe partici|yatlon of hi* army In the actual warfare, and a section of the line near St. Quentin la to he turned over to the Americana. It developed on * Thursday that George Creel, civilian head of the committee on public Information, author ixod tS.t i yf.cation of the new* of the arrival of the troops contrary' In the wishes of the war department, whereupon Secretary Baker withdrew the dissemination of war department new* from the Jurisdiction of Creel'* organization and appointed Genera!

He Is determined that Russia shall resume the offensive against the central pom er*. and 1* harked In this by the councils of delegates and by tbe women of the land The latter by thousand* have enlisted In the army and demand a chance to fight.
