LINE IN SIX ALIEN LANDS American Artillery Several Miles | Inside the Border of Hunland OUR MEN NOW IN ITALY; Courts Knock Into Cocked Hat, Objections to “Foreign Invasion” | Washington, Aug. 5.—The war map with tts trench lines straggling | athwart international —_ boundaries | shows American fighting men holding | their footing on strangely alien soils. As, it now stands army units of ie United States are at their grim work in six countries, France, German kus meuv overseas has been so neces: a response to the emergency of the! nation’s’ responsibility, so thoroughly implied by the original war declara-| tion, and so entirely natural a pictu to a people prepared by three years’ | of observation of world war, that Na may take a historian’s perspective to! visualize completely the departure | from traditions and the smashing ot| precedents that the movement in-j volved. Checking the six, American artillery | has been reported on the French line! opposite. Mulhausen, several miles in- side the border of the German empire. | In Austria, the olive-drab uniform sup; ports Italian sectors which swing | round the toe of Lake Garda, and Am-/ erican fliers have maneuvered over) the Venetian lowlands where the Aus-} trian drive was forced back this spring. In Belgium, they have gone over the top with Australians and in France their forces in action now can) be counted by army corps. In Rus-| sia, at Vladivostok and now on the| zen reaches of the Murman coast, | they are putting disciplined force 1 | hind the manifold manifestations of! national purpose. Likewise, in Eng-/ lan, Scotland and Ireland, they fill up | ine school camps and prepare them-; selves for action. | These men, drafted nearly all, are | the agents in the far-flung journeyings | of a nation whose military history has | shown more than one instance in| which cvolunteers, ordered to cross a houndary, have sat down, private ana officer alike. to debate the constitu. tionality of a warlike expedition to for-; eign ‘soil, and still. more instances; where militia organizations have suc-; cessfully opposed national attempts to send them beyond their own state; lines. Yet today, under the trge of the war resolution, which directed the ad- ministration “‘to exert all of its power and employ all of its resources to car- | Ty. on war against the. Imperial Gei man government and. to bring the conflict to a successful conclusion,” | drafted men apd volunteers have not} raised a single protest of serious im. Port. | It was not until January of the pres-; ent year that the supreme court form- erly construed the constitution to al- low any sort of war operation the na- tion desired to carry on. The court said of contentions opposing that view | that they “were too frivolous for no-| | tice.” Yet long before the decision the tivst| drafted American had fallen in battle} overseas and legions more had stream ed after him to every quarter, almost, ! of the Eurasian continent. Thus the historian has been given a} large and interesting mile-post to} build. to the future, but for the aver- ave American, the news of the day shows that this interest is purely ab- stract. It having been definitely de cided, up due and formal considera- tion, that a complete defeat of Ger | many. was necessary to democrcy in the world, the ntion has not even re- membered precedents of history or; traditions of the past. Apparently, the men least inclined to consider that have been the sol- diers who have gone gravely but with; good cheer into the valley of the sha- dow overseas, and there are making! good the purpose.
