PLAN EDUCATION TO
KEEP BONDS OFF MARKET
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18 Despite the
operation of the treasury sinking fund
for buying up a limited quantity of
Liberty bonds thrown on the market
treasury officials said today, nothing
can prevent the price from continuing
below par after the war If many hold
ers sell their bonds. Consequently a
campaign of education seeking to have
owners hold bonds will be started after
the next war loan.
The treasury has practically given
up hope of developing a scheme for
artificially stabilizing the price. The
extent to which the sinking fund has
been used to absorb bonds has not

21 DIVISIONS CAUSED
DEFEAT FOR GERMANY
Battle of Argonne Or Meuse in
Reality the Sedan Which
Resulted in Final Crushing
of Enemy Forces.
PARIS, Nov. 18. (By the Associated
press iOut of the confusion and daze
of the crowding military events on the
western battle line since late In Sep
tember, when battle followed battle
until from Flanders to Verdun there
was ceaseless action, It Is now per
missible to outline to a certain extent
the part played by the American armies
in the final decisive battle of the war,
which ended with the armistice of last
Monday.
Military reasons. heretofore have pre
vented accentuating the accomplish
ments of the Americans except In a
most general manner. The dispatches
from the field have been necessarily
fragmentary and possibly were over
shadowed by the accounts of the more
dramatic operations over the historic
battle fronts to the west.
But It row may be stated that 21
American divisions, totaling more than
760.000 American combat troops, par
ticipated In the action beginning Sept.
26, known variously as the battle of
the Argonne and the battle of the
Meuse. but which history may call Se
danthe battle that brought Ormany
to her knees and. as far ns human
foresight goes, ended the world's blood
iest and costliest war.
In order to understand the military
situation which made the Argonne op

With the conclusion o( the St. Mlhiel
action, the steady Inflow of American
forces caused u displacement of power
as between the allied and German
armies. Thus It no longer was ncoes
saiv to pursue a policy of, reducing a
salient or nibbling at it. American
troops had shown what they could do.
A broader policy Of general attack
along the entire line was then adopted
and tbo high command called upon
Gen. Pershing to take tho Argonne
sector,, admittedly one of the most,
if not the most, difficult of tho whole
front. The broken terrain, the topog
raphy and the lark of roads made it
a problem difficult to describe. Ger
many had lu four years fortified It to
the last degree of military skill, with
superb roads, both rail and motor,
connecting up to the rear positions
and bases.
The outstanding fenliirc of the Ar
gonne forest is a long chain of hills
running north and south, covered with
a dense growth of trees and under
growth, making :in advance difficult
and offering superb defensive qualities.
Virtually no roads cust In the forest,
except for a few transversal passes
running east and west. The noil Is
such that the least ruin converts It
Into a slippery, miry mess. In other
words, the physical condition is such
that the line of attack for an advanc
ing army la limited t valleys, chief
among which is that of tho Aire river.
Held Many Points.
From the edge of the forest, where
the resistance was viciously strong, the
enemy possessed innumerable flanking
positions. But beyond I his difficult
region lav the Montmery Sedan Hue,
which was recently captured. A Ger
man order described it as "our life
artery." It represented une-Jialf of th
German rail supply on the western
front. It meant death If cut.
Tho high command told Pershing tn
cut It. The American First army was
put in motion from .St. Mlhiel. In nine
days It was on the Argonne lino ready
for an attempt, the failure of which
might mean disaster ami the success
of which would give untold results.
This quick movement of an enormous
body of men. the establishment of a
new line of supply and all the com
plicated military (.reparations, was re
garded with prldo by the American
commanders.
The Americans knew what confront
ed them. Thev realized that this was
no second St. Mlhiel, but an enterprise
at which other armies bad balked for
four years Thev knew that hero was
to he foilght a fight to rank with the
first battle of the Maine, with Verdun,
with the Somme and the Chemln des
I-iames; aJlcl thev knew that on them
depended The fato of the great attack
on the rest of the front. If forced
back here the enemy must give way
to the west. If he held he could hold
elsewhere.
It was at daybreak of Sept If, when
the Americans went In. Using nine
divisions for the preliminary attack
and under vigorous artillery support
they advanced five kilometers the first
day. But the enemy was not taken
wholly by surprise. The second day
he threw Into the line five counter
attack divisions he held In close re
serve. They were his best troops, but
they failed not only to push the Amer
icans hack, but, thev failed to check
the gradual advance of the Americans
over the difficult terrain.
' The first phase of the notion ended
Oct. 31. during which the American
gains were not large, but they com
pelled the enemy to use a large num
ber of divisions, which became slowly
exhausted and thus were unable to
parry the hammering he was receiving
from the French and British on the
west.
It was bitter fighting In the woods,
brush and ravines, over a region per
fectly registered and plotted by the
enemy where his guns, big and little,
could be used with the greatest effi
ciency. The original nine American
divisions In some cases were kept In
the line over three consecutive weeks.
The American reserves then were
thrown In until every division not en
gaged on another pari of the tins had
been put Into action.
It Is a fact commented upon with
pride bv the American commanders
and complimented by the allies that
seven of these divisions that drove
their way through tbl-c bard action
never before had been in an attacklve
sector, while green troops, fresh from
home, were poured In as replacements.
