TTTE MORNING OREGOXIAX, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20. 1916. DECISION IN WEST PURPOSE OF ALLIES General Marchand Says Final Blow Will Be Struck When Entente Is Prepared. MEN ANXIOUS FOR BATTLE Veterans of African Campaign Are Hard to Restrain Trench War Shows Position on Height V. Is Not Advantage. "WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES IN FRANCE, via Paris, Oct. 18. Far down In his dugout, Brigadier-General Mar chand today expressed to the Associat ed Press his opinio that the war would be decided on the- western front whenever the entente allies saw fit to Btrike the final blow. .The general said the decision must be fought out on this Bide sooner or later, and that while he was not a prophet and could not see Into the future the allies certainly had the upper hand now and would not get out of touch with the Germans who, Judging from their movements, are Worried. General Marchand long ago, as he himself puts it. had the honor of being a. "little adversary" of the late Earl Kitchener in Africa, but afterward be came one of Kitchener's greatest ad mirers. He spoke of Earl Kitchener's organizing skill with admiration, and when the Field Marshal's death was mentioned was deeply moved. Cen Chafe When Inactive. At present General Marchand has un der his orders a division composed of some of the most daring troops in the French army. Since he has recovered from his wound he and his men have achieved high distinction on various fronts of the field. Their only desire is to be used even more than they are. General Marchand says he has a diffi cult task to keep his men back. Many of the men fought with General Marchand in Africa when, as he told the correspondent, a victory in a fight meant an advance of at least a thou sand kilometers, whereas in the present war an advance of perhaps a couple of miles meant a great victory. General Plan Observed. "We are obliged to restrain our men bo as to keep in line with the rest of the army at the front. Any section of the army could make a dash in advance almost any time, but that would spoil our general plan," he said. Asked what was the principal les son learned in this war, GeTieral Mar chand replied: "Formerly an army which occupied the he i gilt a was supposed to have the advantage. We have learned from the experience of trench war that the force down below has the upper hand, since it can shell the enemy out of his trenches above, while the opposing artillery can with difficulty bombard trenches be low it." VICTORY CLAIMED BY GERMAN'S Entente Attacks of October 1 2 De clared to Have Failed. AMSTERDAM, via London, Oct. 19. A Berlin dispatch referring to the fcilence of the entente War Offices regarding the reported severity of the fighting on the Somme front last week especially that of October 12. quotes from an order of. the commander of the German army ncfrth of the Somme, dated October 13, in which he says: "The enemy planned a great destruc tive diow ror octoDer iz, attaching on almost the entire' front between the Ancre and Bouchavesnes. Between Courcelette and Les Boeufs alone five newly formed British divisions tried to break through. Iear Sailly and Ran t'ourt the French division previously fighting there was partially replaced by fresh troops. "Against the iron wall of the Tenth Army the onset of October 1 was shat tered. We hold today our positions un changed. The defeat suffered by the enemy signifies a complete victory for our defense. ' U-BOATTHREAT RENEWED GERMAN NEWSPAPER FORECASTS ACTIVITY NEAR AMERICA. Shipping Routes Off Nantucket to Be Visited Berlin Hears All British Vessels Are to Be Armed. AMSTERDAM, via London, Oct. 19. The Volks Zeitung, of Cologne, says: "German submarines will operate in the future in the Western Atlantic. They will 'isit the well-known ship ping routes around f he eastern point of Nantueket Island and will sink British merchantmen after giving the crews opportunity to save themselves." The newspaper believes this activity will influence the supplying of food, especially grain, bacon and lard, to England. BERLIN, Oct. 17, via London, Oct. 19 (Delayed.) The Kriegs Zeitung, the evening edition of the Lokal Anzeiger, publishes a report that the British have ordered the arming of all merchantmen and says that as a result Germany may be forced to take up a sharper sub marine campaign, with consequent en dangerment of German-American rela tions. It continues: "If it is true that England actually Intends to arm all it3 merchantmen with heavy and therefore far-carrying guns, and thus label them plainly as warships intended for attack, it canno be avoided that, whether we wish to .or not, we must give a sharper ten dency to our submarine campaign.

' - The statement follows: "North of the Somme yesterday again was a day of successful fighting in a battle of great magnitude. In the course of a heavy engagement a fresh attempt was made by the British to break through Western Le Sars and Morval. The enemy attacks, which were continued from daybreak until noon against our stubbornly defended positions on this front, partly failed under our heavy and well-directed ar tillery fire. "Our positions either were held as a result of hand-to-hand fighting or were recaptured by counter-attacks. "Unimportant territory gains made by the British north of Beaucourt l'Ab bay and Gueudecourt, and by the French in Sailly-Saillisel and on the southern bank of the Somme, between Biaches and La Maisonette, as a result of an attack made during the evening, were no compensation for the heavy and sanguinary losses suffered by the enemy."

A mounted British force on Sunday attacked a Turkish position, 65 miles east of the Suez Canal, the War Office reports, and after a battle of two hours, drove out the Turks. The announcement follows: "On the eastern front, a reconnais sance against the enemy at Moghara, 65 miles east of Ismailia (a town on the Suez Canal), has been carried out by a mounted, force.

"After an engagement lasting two hours, during which our aeroplanes repeatedly bombed the enemy's main positions, we succeeded in driving him out. About a dozen dead were found in the trenches and we captured 14 wounded Turks, besides several camels. Our own losses were one killed and wo wounded.

FRENCH SUPERIOR TO ENEMY IN AIR Teuton Raids on Farms Are Defeated and Allies Excel in Reconnoitering. DAY'S WORK IS DESCRIBED Young American in Service Point Ont That Aviator Who Does His Duty Is Bound to Be Killed Sooner or Later. BY CAROLYN WILSON. (War Correspondent of the Chicago Tribune. Published by arrangement.) PARIS, Sept. 25. The French feel, and with reason, that they have deli nltely settled the question of aerial supremacy. Not only have all German raids on towns even slightly over the frontier been useless, but even on the front Itself, where the aeroplane goes up only for reconnoitering, the Germans have had no success whatever. The reports of aerial battles are overwhelmingly in favor of the French. Every day there are a dozen or more German machines brought down some where along the line and it is largely due to the failure of the Germans to get to the other side of the lines for observation that the French attribute their success in the Somme offensive. Take just this morning's report, for instance September 25 there were 29 engagements along the Somme. Four enemy planes fell within French terri tory and three within German terri tory, while four others were forced to land In their own territory from dam ages. Farther down the line on the Meuse and near Chalons nine machines destroyed and four seen to fall verti cally within their own lines, presuma bly as the effect of - French machine gun Are. Aces' Win Added Glory. Add to this a pleasant little morning jaunt to Essen on the part of Cautaii, de Beauchamps and Lieutenant Dau court, where they dropped 12 large bombs on the munition factories and hurried back to report before sundown 500 miles in all. That Is Just one day's work. 'And it means added glory for several of the well-known "aces" as they call the popular and lucky pilots, Guynemer attacked two enemy planes at a time over the Bois des Vaux and destroyed mem in succession. These make his th andi 18th victories. But this same victorious dav meant !eath to one of our own boys, Klffen Kockwell, who has been serving with the French first in the foreign legion and later in the air service, since the beginning of the war.- He had already ben in several serious engagements. bringing down his enemy with success. out wounded in the attempt, last May. This brilliant effort gained him the croix de guerre. His brother Paul, who was also in the foreign legion, has been reforms as the result of his wounds. Young Rockwell said to me one do v last Spring, when we were speaking or the reputed advantages of aviation over trench warfare: "Anysnan who does his duty seriously without shirk ing is hound to get killed. Of course if you see you are going to get in bad you can turn tail. But if you do your duty, as you'd have to do it in liko cir cumstances in the trenches, it is bound to get you." Younir Americans Are Calm. They are calm about it. all these young Americans who art out there. There are seven more Just completing the course doing their first spirals and finishing their "triangle" test courses. I went up yesterday In the newest type of military machine, which was beinjr tested before being accepted by the government, and as we came back from our trip to Le Bourget, the other side of Paris, we saw a machine attempt to do a spiral and fall in on itself, the wind lifting Us tail so that the machine was driven nose in to the earth. It crashed and lay silent. No one ran to it. Gradually we came near the earth or. as It always seems to one in an aeroplane, the earth comes up to meet you. The loud pounding of the two motors ceased and only the full whirr of the propellers continued as we slid into the landing field. Still no one seemed to have gone to the pilot buried beneath his machine We both clambered out of our seats asd called to some mechanicians. But It seems that no pupils are allowed to go to tho aid of one of their comrades who is injured it has such a bad effect on the morale. The doctor couldn't be found and the ambulance was out of order, bo that the poor chap had to lie under his machine 20 minutes before he could be cared for. They feared both legs would have to be amputated, they were so oaaiy crushed. The machine I went uo in is the new double motor Codron. a thing of beauty to look at as it rises so strongly, so steadily, from the ground. There is not a superfluous ounce of material on it. There are two powerful engines on either side of the cradle, their long propellers crossing Just in front of the observer's seat.
