ALL NEEDS OF ARMY SUP- PLIED BY FOLKS AT HOME, In order to arm you and camp you, the American manufactories worked without respite and sup- plied all your needs, Adinirable effort also in trans- portation, You swept away every obstacle which interfered with bringing your units from the cen- tres of instruction to the ports of embarkation. In France you improved the ports of debarkation, created new installations, increased the traffic of the railroad system by work of all kinds and multiplied your storehouses and haspitals. Your shipyards were organized for intensive production in such a way that when the war ended you utilized for your ocean transpor- tation almost four millions of ma- rine tonnage, instead of 94,000 available at the beginning of the war. And, meanwhile, your splendid war fleet, thanks to {ts vigilance and its fine military qualities, pro- tected with an efficiency to which Tam happy to pay tribute here, the transportation of your troops and material. A prodigious effort on the part of your entire Nation's intelli- gence, will power and energy! A prodigious effort which has filled your associates with admiration and gratitude and confounded your enemy! ‘ ‘This splendid spirit of an entire nation we find again on the bat- tleflelds of France, where it was blazoned in the admirable virtues of bravery and heroism. It was tho spirit of the Second and Third American Army Divi- sions which, one month later, took part in the battle of the Marne and distinguished themselves im- Mediately in the operations around Chateau Thierry and in Belleau Wood. ain, it was the spirit of those five divisions which, on July 18, participated in the victorious counter-offensive of the Tenth and Sixth French Armies betwen the Aisne and the Marne and contributed in great measure to that victory, WHOLE ARMY ANIMATED BY SAME SPIRIT OF HEROISM.
