C., April 3—While the battle in Picardy halt- ed today in a lull that may only foreshadow the breaking of a more terrible storm, American troops were hastening to join the fray.

The physical standard has been almost abandoned judging | jby prisoners taken, and the intelli- | gence of the new men called to the| |coolrs is of low order frequently. ' | Compared to these recruits the Ameri- jcan units to fill up depleted British or French brigades are seasoned and e- | not more than a very few of the high-| est officials know precisely what meth- od is to be adopted to rush addition- al forces to France. Instead of an explanation, Major General March, acting chief of staff, made public an order from Secretary Baker, now in Europe, directing that all information hereafter regarding activities of Am- erican troops overseas be centralized in General Pershing’s hands. The war department will not give out any statements relating to those forces. Presumably, under the new plan of f merging American units ‘in the allied SN eT armies and also because oft he crea- tion of a supreme commander in the person of General Foch, under whose direction General Pershing as well as General Petain and Field Marshal Haig are now operating, has been found a visable to provide for a uniform tem of reporting military operation Baker Thot Behind Plan. Reviewing the meagre information that has been available as to the great things that have been accomplished since the German drive began, many officials were convinced tonight that Mr. Baker had been nt to Europe by President Wilson for the purpose of bringing about just the amalgamation of forces that hb, een effected. In urging single command for the whole battle front in the west, is was regard- ed as certain that the American war secretary would not have gone empty handed to the conferences The strength of the American army actually in France was not sufficient to warrant more than a plea for new measures to meet the German onrush. With the whole man power of the United States made immediately avail- able to play its part in the ranks of the allied armies as well as in the purely American however, it was argued that Mr. Baker could speak with compelling force. There are many who believe that he crossed the ocean authorized to make this great sacrifice of pride in national a- chieyement upon the altar of world democracy. His Training Plan. Just before Secretary Europe, he had new plans for training centers es as well as w determination he y befor only training in to nm the arrival in France of American forces in sufficient numbers to influence the war decisively. The men were to tish t i tem, ng camps line trenches, then to be turned over’ to General Pershing for incorporation in his army. This was one way sug- gested for short cutting supply and transportation problems since the British trained units would be equip- ped and supplied by the British. ‘The ‘actual plan adopted apparently is an: outgrowth of this proposal but it is far more significant, for it con- templates not only training but actual operations in battle combined British- ‘American and French-American forces in addition to General Pershing’s own army the upbuilding of which it to be pressed forward with every urgency. ~~ Americans Praised. Of the showing American troops now in this country will make at the front, have studied the cantonments and the British and French officers here whe men probably are the best judges. ‘They agree that the American soldier -who has had from sixty to ninety days instruction here is fully ready to go to the front, provided he is surround- ed with veteran troops.
