(LA RUSSELL GETS | POST N NE YORK Former Power Board Solic- itor Retained by State to i Make Surveys. Charles A. Russell, whose removal as soli¢itor from the Federal Power Com- misgion precipitated the row with the Senhte which resulted in the present ousfer proceedings against Dr. George Oti€ Smith, chairman of the commis- siom, has been retained by the State of New York to make two surveys, accord- ing to a special dispatch from Albany, appearing in the New York Times this morning. Commenting on Russell's appointment, the Times quotes Gov. Roosevelt of New York as follows: “Mr. Russell will make a complete survey of the legal and physical as- pects of the barge canal water, which 1in some localities goes out of the canal and 1s used for power purposes. “In addition Mr. Russell will make the same kind of survey regarding the history and operation of river regulat- |2d ing districts where a similar situation exists.” A bellef was expressed at Albany that Mr. ‘Russell's association with the ad- ministration might foreshadow his ap- pointment as a trustee of the proposed power authority, the Times said. Smith Papers Being Prepared. Meanwhile, there is no word here yet as to when the quo warranto proceed- ings instituted by the Senate against Dr. Bmith actually will get into court. It ‘was said this morning at tha office of Senator Walsh, Democrat, of Montans, a leader in the fight on the Power Commission thflm;n. that the papers in the case are under prepara- tion in New York, in the office of John W. Davis, chief of Senate counsel, and there had been no advice from him in the matter. *Chairman Must Defend Self. Nar was anything definite known at the pffice of Senator Norris, Republi- can, ‘of Nebraska, chairman of the Se ate judiclary subcommittce, which en- gaged Davis, and his aid, former Gov. Alex J. Groesbesk of Michigan. Dr. Smith has not as yet chosen counsel, He will be forced to defend the action himself, inasmuch as the Attorney Gen:ral probably will enter the case only as a “friend of the court,” in support of the stand of President Hoover in refusing to retwrn to the Senate Dr. Smith's nomination, the move that precipitated the legal battle, AUTHORESS ADMITS PLOT SIMILARITY Writer Suing Eugene O0'Neill Agrees Same Idea Is Found in » - Classical Works.

Ruse Is Used to Mislead Enemy Before Drive on St. Mihiel—End of War in 1918 Seen. . CHAPTER LXL WENT to Gen. Petain’s head- quarters at Chantilly August 24, | 1918, to confer on various details | of the coming St. Mihiel offensive. We fixed the bcundary between the American sector and that of the French Army, which was to attack on our left with six divisions. When we took up the questions of truck transport and additional artillery, Gen. Petain told me he had issued orders directing all services to give us every assistance. He also said that all the aviation we had asked would be brought into the sector, and more besides. I was eager to begin the attack by September 7 if possible, or the 10th at the latest, but it appeared that a considerable number of the necessary heavy guns were to come from Mangin's 10th” Army, then prepaging an opera- tion. It looked as tholigh this would make it necessary to postpone the date of our attack until the 10th, or possibly the 12th. Asked Artillery Early, I returned to Bombon the following afternoon for further conference with Marshal Foch. I asked him particularly to e te the arrival of the artillery, advising him that to save time the nec- essary reconnaissance had already been made and the positions for the guns chosen. I pointed cut that any delay in the St. Mihiel operation would, of course, reduce the time we would have to prepare for the later offensive else- where. The delay in getting the heavy artillery from Mangin’s army, however, held us up until September 12, and there was no way to avoid it. Marshal Foch-and I also spoke of the large prograni proposed for the United States in 1919. I mentioned the coming visit of Secretary of War Baker and mmwd we get together upon his ar- and go thoroughly into all questions. ‘That Foch might visualize our prob- lem as it appeared to me and be pre- d to discuss it with the Secretary, explained that our War Department feared we should not be able to pro- vide supplies for such & large increase in dur forces, but that I had contended there should be no hesitation, arguing that we were not making war in a bar- ren country, and although ‘we might have to economize more strictly there ywld be no danger of our men starving. ‘The marshal really needed no coach- lnl.'-hl.! he was thoroughly wni:n‘t"heldt to the larger program. He sa in his opinion the allies should make every effort to win the war in 1919, that the British were tired, the French were worn out, and we must hasten the arrival of American divisions.

Spurns Early Peace. I lulies'ed that he go into these details his_conversation with our Secref of War. FPeeling that pos- sibly ed effort might be weakened by peace propaganda, 1 said positively that “we must not let the people listen to rumors that the Germans are ready to make peace; there should be no Germany is completely We should emghnlle this fact. We have pacifists who are luke- warm * * * and too much inclined to listen to any proposition to have o thi petgme. whatever views or TUp to "s any of us may have held privately, there was no hint of re- linquishing plans for the supreme ef-| fort in 1919. In support of the 100- division program, Gen. Bliss came to see me and suggested closer co-opera- tion between us in sdvocating its adoption. As no definite advice had been received from the War Depart- ment regarding the greater plans, I continued to urge that the 80-division program be completed by April, 1919, and the 100-division goal by July, bas- ing my action in recommending the higher number mainly on the failure the War Department so far to reach the maximum figures set in any revious program. 8 It mpmy thought also, and I so advised the War Department by cable August 18, that if we ourselves should decide to make the great effort the allles would be the more willing to concede additional tonnage and sup- lies. Moreoyer, it was certain that f our ple at home could be brought to re!m the possible eventual de- mands, they would be prepared for the necessary sacrifice the effort would entail and we should be all the more likely to attain at least the 80-divisich rogram. p l’;nsulhd with Mr. Herbert Hoover on the question of food lupsly, with Assistant Secretary of War Stettinius on uction of munitions, and with Marshal Foch on the military require- ments, and all agreed the maximum should be the goal. Hence, with the thought that insistence would at least insure the B80-division plan, it was again recommended that there be no hesitation or delay in entering upon the larger plan. Urges 100-Division Plan. 1In a letter to Secretary Baker August 17, 1918, I wrote in part: “I sincerely hope the President may decide on the 100-division program minimum and establish that as the aim toward which every energy shall be directed. Such & decision would stimulate our allies to further effort, which, in itself would be also of almost vital significance. Our own various supply departments and ship- ping interests, as well of those of our 2llies, will then be brought to realisze that much greater neessions will have to be made to out this high purpose of our Government. “I am afraid that now they are in- matter and wonder whether it could be done or not. My strong opinion is that a leap must be made into this big pro- gram, and that those who fail to_fol- low must take the consequences. Even thought we may fall short, we shall have shown our full appreciation of its im- portance and our desire to carry it out.” In a cable the War Department in- formed me that the 80-division pro- had been approved by the nt and Secretary of War July 26. The message expressed the view that it would be impracticable to carry out any larger plan, citing the lack of camp space avallable for having more than 18 divisions in training at home at the same time. But the cable made it clear that th: War it pected to have 80 divisions, or a lm-my 3,000,000 men, actually x- roxi- in France by July, 1919.

My cable stated that too much tutelage by allied officers tended to rob our officers of a sense of responsibility and initiative. It was well known that many of the allied sent to the States were not professional soldiers, but men whose dge was limited to nal ex- perience in subordinate grad:s in trench warfare. Moreover, the French doc- trine, as well as the British, was based upon the cautious advance of infani with prescribed objectivis where obstacles had been destroyed and re- sistance broken by artillery.

Our mission reduired an u;ve offensive based on self-reliant gntry. Our organization was radically differ- ent from that of any of the allied armies, and we could not become imita- tors of methods which applied especially to armies in which initiative was more or_less repressed by infinite att:ntion to” detail in directives prepared for their guidance. It was my bellef, as cabled the War Department, that the iclency could only be attained by adherence to our own doctrines, based upon thorough sppreciation of the Ameriean temp:rament, qualifica- tions and deficiencies. Recommends Recall. 1 recommended the withdrawal of all instruction in the United States from | the hands of allled instructors. This recommendation was promptly approved by chief of staff, who entirely agreed with my views. In preparation for the coming offen- sives the advance headquarters of the 1st Army was moved from Neuf- chat:au, A 29, and established at Ligny-en-Barrols, & small town 25 miles southwest of St. Mihiel. It was from U"nwt all 1st Army activi- ties were ted during the St. Mihiel operation. When we arrived the French gencral who was being relieved; and his chief of staff, all dressed up in their red trousers and blue coats, came formally to turn oy:r the command. The chief of staff carried two large volumes, each consisting of about 150 pages. ese | they presentzd to me with considerable ceremony. One ‘Was the “Plan Offensive” and the other the “Plan Defensive” for the St. Mihiel salient. My orders had been already prepared, the one for the attack comprising six pages and the one for the defense eight pages. ‘This incident is cited merely to show the difference between planning for trench warfare, to which the French were wedded, as compared with open warfare, which we expected to conduct. At Ligny-en-Barrois we were in close touch with the front.

It was feared the enemy might conclude that the danger of such an offensive was immediate and would reinforce his position or else with- draw to a new line prepared farther back. Up to this time our movements were not of such a definite character as to indicate the exact sector between Verdun and the Swiss frontier on which the attack was to be made. But to divert the enemy’s attention from our real objective it was neces- sary first to create some uncertainty in the minds of our own troops. The ru- mor was, therefore, started around headquarters that our first offensive m!gt be in the direction of Mulhouse, e Rhine Valley, jond the Vosges Mountains, northeast of Belfort. It was also decided to version in that direction, liminary step an_office: lease buildings in Belfort, At the same time confidential instructions were sent | Maj. Gen. Bundy, commanding the | 6th Corps, to proceed to Belfort with a limited staff and prepare detailed plans for an offensive with the object of selzsing Mulhouse and the heights to the southeast and eventually establish- in! our line along the Rhine. n the letter of instructions seven divisions were mentioned as having been designated for the attack, and three officers from each of these units were detailed to report to Gen. Bundy to assist in the reconnaissance. ably begin September 8, under my per- sonal command. Instructions Disappear. The presence of a major general and an active staff in Belfort must have caused apprehension among the Ger- mans. Two days later reports to come in that a hospital and considerable unmbers of the population were moving to the other side of the Rhine. Mean- while, at Belfort, plans were being pre- pared in all seriousness, when one day | Col. A. L. Conger, who was in the secret, and acting as my representative, with seeming carelessness, left in his room at the hotel, as‘directed, a copy of in- structions to commander of the 6th Corps, only to find, upon his return, that it had disappeared at the hands of some spy. This apparently served to confirm the worst of German fears, for within a few days one German reserve division was reported moving up to the front, while another division was sent to Mulhouse and two more to the’ Vosges, farther north. g The French staff gave valuable as- sistance by circulating false rumors about our plans. So the ruse had been successful and the result quieted our anxiety over the situation in the salient. The progress of the allies since July 18 had been greater than expected, and as a consequence the allied program had been extended. At the same time the weakness among Germany's allies was becoming moré evident. With the prospect of three months of seasbnable ‘weather before Winter should end ac- tive operations on a large scale, with the probability of victory in our first independent offensive, and confidence in the plans in preparation for offen- sives to follow, it seemed to me not un- reasonable to hope for the successful conclusion of the war in 1918. That- President Wilson might be ap- prised of my views I sent word to him regarding such a possibility, suggesting that the utmost pressure, both diplo- matic and commercial, be brought to bear upon neutrals as well as upon Germany’s allies to the end that Ger- many might be forced to regard a con- tinuance of the war as futile. * ok x K ‘Tomorrow: Foch again tries to break up American command, on eve of D h opyright, 1931, in all countries by the North”American Newspuper Alliance World rights reserved, ineluding the Scandinavian. dh“ehblr |:euon in whole or in part pro- By the Assoclated Press NEW YORK, March 13.—This is the second Friday the 13th of 1931, and | another will be along in November.

Caulfield yesterday directed Attorney General Stratton Shartel to investigate “all discrep- ancies and shortages” in the accounts of C. E. Stephens, former State treasurer. After receiving the latter, Shartel said he “wished time to determine what comrse he would pursue.” Several made public an incomplete report of a special auditor, which said approximate- ly $45,000 was due to the State interest charges over a period of four years, when Stephens was treasurer. Of the amount, the report said, about $10,000 had been paid into the treasury by banks, but no satisfactory accounting ever was made on the books of the State treasurer.
