W. T. MASON (United Press War Expert) NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—The redue- tion in the intensity of the fighting along the West front is a normal condition of the strategy confronting both Hindenburg’s and Foch's pur poses. It is Hindenburg’s natural desire to rest briefly after his retirement, and it is wholly in accord with Foch's plana to conserve his own driving power until Hindenburg re sucnes his dreary withdrawal to the Velgian frontier. In this respect, Hindenburg may be said to possess a quiescent initia: | tive. It is for him to say when his backward movement shall be volun: | tarfly resumed, Until that time comes, it 1s not probable Foch will order offensives | on a large scale against the enemy's positions. Announcement ts made today that | Admiral Von Hintze, the German for eign minister, has gone to field head quarters for a conference with Hin- denburg and Ludendorff.
