HART in His Big Six Reel Superlative Feature COLD DEGEC" AMERICA PREVENTS SUCCESS OF GERI I Af IS IN VESTFRH DRIVE General Pershing's Tactics Caused Enemy to Change Pre-Arranged Plans By J. W. T. Mason (Written for the United Press) New York, April 2. America's first year at the front ras prevented the Germans from waging a successful ma jor offensive against the Western allies. Germany's high hopes of a victorious assault upon the Anglo-French lines were clamorously proclaimed in Berlin at the beginning of the winter. But General Pershing's forces grew during the winter too rapidly in numbers and effiicency. German, boastfulnetss collap sed and Von Hindouburg was compelled to veto the winter movement. The influence of America's military power upon the plans of the Germans general staff began with General Per shing's clever distribution of Mis troops at strategic centers along the entire length of the French front. Last Novem ber the Germans discovered American troops at the Bhine-Marno canal, op posite the Lorraine border. Von Hin deuburg gave quick evidenco that he be lieved he had found the key of General Pershing's strategy. It was thought to be a drive toward the Bhine. The Ger man General Staff thereupon concen trated strong reserves at the Metz and near the Swiss border, these being the two extreme points between which any movement toward the Bhine must occur. By thus xixing Von llindenburg's at tention inside German territory in the west, General Pershing prevented any offensive use of the German reserves in France and Belgium. But when. Von mnaenburg had dis posed of his reserves to guard the Bhine General Pershing began a redistribution of his troops. He started to move them westward away from the Bhine. The Germans discovered American forces during the winter near St. Mihiel, then still further west, near Tahure, aud fin ally near the Soissons area, where the French front joins the- British. Simultaneously with this western movement of the Americans, reuewca reports began to circulate of a forth coming German offensive, as if other re serves were being moved into Franco to cheek the Americans. Thereupon Gen eral Pershing arranged to make the next appearance of American troops near the .Swiss border at the very point of the Ficneh line nearest the Bhine. Von Jlin dontmre was thus prevented from dis turbing his reserve formation in that re gion. To hold in cheek at tne same time any movement into France or tho Met- reserves, the Americans next con ducted a scries of operations against the enemy's trenches along the Lorraine front, near the Khine-Marne canal, Am erica's original trench position. ?kis strategy brought forth new dis claimers from Berlin of any immediate intention of launching a western orten sive. When on the first day of spring, Von irir-'Miil.uiir finally drove forward against the British front, his offensive was halted at tue ena oi a vreci uc--ause his available reserves were ex nausted. The Americans along tne Alsace-Lorraine border were keeping Ger man reserves inactive at Metz and in southern Alsace. At the same time Am erica's fast growing military strength in France caused Von tyinaenburg to decline to risk further slaughter ot his other troops before America's full pow er beeame operative. The two facts ex erted a vital influence in preventing the attainment of Von Hiudeuburg ' purpose. America's first year at the front cuds therdore. with the major purposes of American strategy having been fulfilled. General Pershing's forces have laminar ized themselves with all the main areas of the French front the Americans have baffled Von Hiudeuburg concerning their major intentions; they have com pelled the concentration of Germaa re serves inside the German boundary for the first time since the early months of the war; and they have forced Von Uindenburg to abandon the risk of a further offensive in the west. If a German assault now comes, it will be without hope of positive gains to Ger many.'Its purpose will be to try to de stroy some of the advantages of posi tion the allies hold. That means it will be in reality a movement of defensive strategy, bo much has, the uniteu States contributed toward winning the war during tho first year of prepara tion. The second year of action will have a more positive story to tell. NORTHWEST NEWS I - Cltl (Innrxt W WUUW iiVlC it WHO - Governor Withycombe announced yes terday that E. J.
