President Wilso nFriday night or
dered that a division of regular
troops, commanded by Major Gen.
John J. Pershing be sent to
France at the earliest practicable
date. This is the answer df America
to France’s plea that the Stars and
Stripes be carried to the "lighting
front without delay to hearten the
soldiers battling there with concrete
evidence that a powerful ally has
come to their support against Ger
man aggression.
Announcement ot the order fol
lowed signing of the selective draft
war army bill by the president and
the issuance of a statement that un
der advice of military experts on both
sides of the water .the president
could not employ volunteers or avail
himself of the “fine-vigor and en-
thusiasm“i- of former President
Kcbscvelt TOO the expedition. _
The army law provides for an ul
timate force of two milliop men to
back up the first troops to go to the
front. \\ hen the bill I .ad bee n sign

Xr>ttnng that cither French or
British officers have been able to
furnish in the way of Information
has been lacking and there is every
Indication that the regular forces
which will compose the expe
ditionary dvislon are being selected
with greatest care.
No inkling of the plans for that
divisions have been allowed to leak
out. It is known, however, that or
ders have already gone forward to
officers of tried Judgment and long
experience notifying them to prepare
for foreign service.
The war in Europe has developed
many new phases of battle not here
tofore known in military science. Ar
tillery has decided the fate of many
battles and every army has doubled
and trebled its guns, both in size
and number. For this reason it waa
thought likely the expeditionary
—forces would include a disproportion-
ate number of artillery troops and be
backed by a solid wall of guns when
it comes to grips with the enemy.
The number of men in the expedi
tionary force has not been disclosed.
A division at war strength, however,
totals more than 25,000 men of all
arms and the “approximate" division
of the war department’s stktement
probably will exceed that figure.
Gen. Pershing, a Republican in pol
itics, was a brigadier general when
he led the forces Into Mexico in pur
suit of tbw~bindit. Villa. His work
at that time won for him selection
by his brother general officers as a
S Jor general and the choice waa
