It js not beyond the range of .pos- jiaibilities that this congress will have to authorize the invasion of others of thi .classes in ordeV to carry the work through," March is quoted as saying in testimony made public yesr terdny. "The United States is going to see this thing through. The way wo can win is to put the greatest number of men over thero that we can. Every-, one will have hardships. No man can win a. war without hardships. ; March made It clear that there is littlb possibility of France of England grently increasing their armies. Re plying to a question of Senator Kirby regarding the strength of England and Franco, March replied: : "The only way that Germany can be whipped is by America going into this JUith her whom strength. The allies have superiority of man power on the west front today for the first time, because the American troops are there in large, numbers." , "The great battles of the allies" will probably bo fought next summer. This was the interpretation placed by au;,! thorities today on General' March s statement before the senato- military committee that the 2,300,000 men available under the new draft Will be in Frahce by June, lffl!), and ,wiih '4.000,000 Americans then thtere the allies can penetrate the German lines at will. Little expectation is held that the war will end this year. A high official' in the government councils', outlined the stages by which the war wound be ended, as follows:. ; . "Maximum man power in Europe by next summer. -' "Mammoth allied drive as soon as possible thereafter, surpassing in size and force anything previously vat-, tempted, with the view of Inflicting decisive defeat on the German nrniy. "Peace bid from Germany late in 1919 and sufficient guarantees from her to make possible an armistice. Signing of the peace treaty in the win ter qf 1919: or early in J920.". V , .To get the 2,300,000' new draftees which' the program now. -calls for, Crowder plans to register 13,000,000 men early next month. ' Draft officials throughct the coun try are getting ready for this gigantic' task. Men will begin leaving fdr the camps almost as soon as theyt are classified, Crowder said., -. ' An appeal to dongrffss to. speed up action on the draft Nvas being throughout the country .tod'ay! A3 it becomes clearer 'that America is in the fight to a finish, the people are de manding that nothing shall delay mil itary offifcials in executing the" mam moth pogram under their charge.
