A WAR RESUME
GENERAL PERSHING’S BOOK. AN UNGENEROUS ATTACK. , United Press Association— By Electro Telegraph.—Copyrignt.) (Received this day at 9.25 a.m) • LONDON, June 19. General Pershing’s book “.My Experiences in the World War” is causing considerable controversy. It contains such references as “The allied man power rapidly dwindled to a. dan-, gerous degree. Its' morale almost reached the breaking point. Training with worn out British and French troops had a detrimental effect on our men.” The “Morning Post” says such passages are not merely not generous, but are demonstrably unfair. The “Daily Express” without comment, reproduces a map which reveals that British and French divisions alone held the sector where the Hindenburg line was severed in September 1918, which virtually ended the war.
