KING OF SPAINON | " HISTORIG GROUNDS Trods Verdu] P|~eldg and Hears, History of War France, Oct 22 (By the Pre Over the historic battlefield of Verdun, King of Spain walked today Wwith Marshal Petain, the chief defender of {ho citadel during tho tremendous struggle that was fought in February and March, 1916. Along roads lined on cither hand by thousands of white crosses mark- ing the last resting place of warriors who fell during the battle, and thoso subterrancan passagew where the defenders were marshalled prepars tory to counter-attacki the foe, the king walked, and as he went he plied his distinguished guide with ques- tions. Verdun, Associated ind tra Alfonz Mect By Marshal Petain. Upon his arrival at Verdun, King Alfonzo was met by Marshal Petain whom he greeted affectionately and congratulated. He then turned and saluted the French general headquar- ters officers who made up the mar- shal’s party and reviewed the 132d tegiment of Infantry, all Moroccans who made a fine appearance. Tho king at once proceeded to the mili- tary ccmetery where he deposited a wreath of orchids tied with wide rib- bons forming the Spanish colors, up- on which was printed a tribute from the royal visiter. The party then turned to the bat- lefield, reaching Fort Douaumont at 10 o'clock. Great interest in the fort was evidenced by the king. Over No Man's Land. The king and Marshal walked out over what was once Man's Land and which now shows no sign of Jife. Upon reaching Tort Vaux, Marshal Petain with a large staff map explained {o the Spanish sovereign the general aspect of the whole Verdun region. The party then returned to Verdun shortly be- fora noon. France Petain No was not German offensive Marshal Petain latter expressed surprise, as it has been generally believed the Germans launched their attack almost without warning. “We knew of the enc plan,” said the marshal in describing the battle. “It was a defensive battle at first, the fight commencing at 7 o'clock on the evening of February after violent artillery preparation. “Six weeks Dbefore,” he continued, “we had received our first informa- tion from learning of the construc- tion of a formidable system of rail- roads leading to Verdun. There were 14 racks formed into a network that stretched cut from the German bases toward our lines. We had only one road over which to move supplies and munitions. Proof of (lis “As proof that 1, I may say which IFebruary surprised against told the king. by the Verdun, The Statements, e mnot sur- > sent for the 20th Verdun on not fall from heaven. lowever, the fact remains that when the battle of Verdun be- gan we had on the right bank of the Meuse only two divisions opposing five German army corps. These two divisions held their positions for five days. “February 25 was the most critical day of the battle. The enemy, by sacrificing, without counting, his best troops, had succeeded in capturing Fort Douaumont the day bhefore and the situation was grave. On Febru- ary 25 the troops which had been occupying the Woevre sector (to the east ol Verdun) were ordered to fall back to the heights of the Meuse. The order was criticized then, but wis dom was later vecognized. “Sinco I had received from great headquarters to establish contact with Gen. Castelnu’s division which had been defending Fort Doua- umont and was now falling back on Verdun, I mel Gen. Castelnau at Souilly. All he said was: Take Command of ‘‘Take command of the army.” Thus on the evening of February 1 assumed command of the army b foro Verdun 1 distributed the com- mands among Generals Guillaumat, Duchesne and De Balfourier, and or- dered that not another inch of ground he given up and that the defenders should reply {o every attack by a counter ofiensive “During the eight lowed, the villaze of Donaumont changed hands ten times, but the Germans held the fort. “At last March 4, was definitely our: 1d on when the Germans attacked on the left bank of the Meuse, I was ready to receive them. It had always ap- peared strange to me that an attaclk had not been launched on the left bank of the river, and everything was prepared in view of such an assault. It was because the enemy deferred that attack too long that we were able to restore the situation., That delay saved us. “Then came the gi for Hill 304 and Dead was then 1 issued my da 1t did an orvder Army. days that fol- on the village March 6, ntic Man's order struggle Hill. It of the Courage, we will get them. Marshal Petain then told the story Gen.

The enemy after shouting ‘victor disdainfully. of this fighting was said the marshal Gen Mangin's offensive on October 26, when Fort Dovaumont was recap- tured and the Germans forced to evacuate the village and Fort of Vaux, with the loss of 11,000 prison- ers, was then described. ““At the end of. 1916,” the French chieftain concluded, “our situation was favorable the right bank the Meuse, but bad on the left On August 20, 1917, however, our offen sive on both banks of the Meuse brought us back (o our original lines of February 1916, and on that day we gathered In ev thing we wished.” DEPARTING PASTOR'S FATHER IS SECURED on (Continued from First Page) and people enter.
