Trooe Now Now Active on | Five Fronts, Weekly War | Summary Shows. WASHINGTON, March 13.—Veering from its constantly expressed view, the War Department for the first time to- day the Germans do not intend a major west front offensive this spring. "While hostile preparations for an of- fensive in the west are not slackening, said to-day's weekly war summary, “it is becoming more evident that the enemy | will launch this offensive only if com- Pelled to do so by the exigencies of the general strategic situation. Germany's concentration of troops on the west line has now reached about the limit apparently, according to the statement. Further increase in the | density of the lMnes would doubtless clog communication and remov sential flexibility of manoeuve: The statement also revealed that | American troops now occupy trench | at five different points, and that th have been “constantly in action. “The period of activity in the west Is | being prolonged,” said the statement. “Though the ralds now taking place would in the past have been considered important engagements, nevertheless, owing to the fact that they are merely of minor tactical value, they cannot be held to be major operation: Concerning American operations the the ea- summary added | “This week we undertook our first Baie pai |assault against German positions unas twenty-four hours, but have been| been able to assume this additional ~NEW isted by any Allied contingent.

OUT NUMBER OF TROOPS IN PARIS Only a Few Hundred Remain and Future Visits Will Be Limited. | | PARIS, March 18—The American uniform has almost disappeared from j the public places in Paris and on the boulevards. With the removal this month of the railway transportation corps from Pa in central France the number of American sol- diers stationed in Paris will be re- duced to a minumum, Virtually all the services of the American Army are represented here by one or more officers, but the large staffs that remain are those whose Presence is necessary because they are working in co-operation with sim- ilar departments of the French Army which was centred in Paris, These in- clude the technical branches, aviation, engineers and other services. The central army post office base, the censor, tie war risk insurance bu- reau, the medical depot, the Assist- ant Provost Marshal and the Depot Quartermaster also are here, but the number of American soldiers perma- nently stationed in Paris has been reduced from several thousand to a few hundred. The busiest American soldiers in Paris lately have been the ambulance men who, in addition to performing regular duties during the day, are calied out at night to remove persons wounded in German air raids. The press and public generally acknowl- edge and praise highly the help given by these boys during the night air raids and during the dangerous fire following Friday's explosion when they saved many lives at the risk of their own.
