U.S.Attache Gives War Facts
Skilled Observer Tells Exactly How Bayonet,
Rifle, Field Piece and Aeroplane Are Being Used.
[Continued from Saturday, August 7th
The one idea of the German
infantry seems to be to shoot as
much and as rapidly as possible.
1 have several times
where German infantry have
taken up a position in the open,
and fired rao rounds a man,
more or less, as a matter of
course.
Coming to physical and men-
tal characteristics, Mr. Wood
has some interesting facts t0 re-
cord. He discovered that intel-
ligent men in Germany are ex-
tremely broad-minded about
things military, going on the
principle that credit should not
be withheld where it is earned,
though earned by an enemy.
Thus, intelligent Germans were
"pretty well agreed," at the
time of Wood's visit, that Gen-
eral Joffrc is the only General
produced thus far by the war
who would rank in history as a
great captain, though they held
German officers,as a class su
perior to all others.
As for troops, these Germans
declared that the best troops
which had thus far fought in
the war were the British regu
lars who battled under the uni-
on jack in t^g^first week
men who composed
The French, although small
and light, are wiry and have
very good stamina, especially in
observed I the matter of marching. The
Austrian! are of medium size,
most of them being Stockil)
Luilt. The Hungarians are of
medium height, well-knit, pos
sessed of good stamina, and are
Considerable information \
about the part aeroplanes have'
played in the war is given by
Mr. Wood, who opens his dis-
cussion of this subject by stating
that "the German aeroplanes are
generally conceded to be the
most effective in the war, and
the Germans seem to DOSSi ^
in every way physically luted to I more of them than anv other
be fine soldiers Tin ir infantry
have very high physical quali-
ties, probably being as effective
in modern warfare as the heavy
Germans.
On mnnv different

machines are slow, and their
fastest can outrace the swiftest
of any other nation.

The fighting qualities of the
British are much higher than
those of any other nation, sa\s
Mr. Wood, when the men have
had enough training to teach
them the technique of war. Un-
der the most adverse circum-
stances they are calm, often
Cheerful. In neither victors-nor
defeat do they lose control of
themselves. And. on the testi
monv of the Germans themselves
the British fight best of all when
they are hopelessly defeated or
surrounded.
Of S' >ldiers of some of the other
beligerents, Mr. Wood says:
The German soldiers and offi
cers have a physiqu unap-
proacbed b) anv troops I saw,

iic better winners than the Ger-
mans and worst losers. Tlieir
temperament leads them to push
home a success with more en
thuiasm than the Germans;
wheieas, in defeat, they are less
reliable.
And the author has this com-
parison to make as farts Ameri-
can troops are concerned:
I have fpen no body of officers
which can compare in quality
with those of our army who are
ur iduates of West Point. I low-
ever, we have fewer of these
than Germany hasGeneials,
It is just as strongly niv opin-
ion that the American infantry

3ombs dropped from aeroplanes
usually miss their target by at
least 200 yards, and only suc-
ceed in doing much damage
when they have a whole city for
the target.
In the field the principal tar-
gets of the aeroplanes are sup-
ply and ammunition convoys.
The method of operation is for
the machine to fly above the
road and drop a bomb as it
passes over the convoy. The
machine then makes a circlt
and repeats the operation.
Wood says he knows personal-
ly of fifty bombs so dropped, not
one of which bit any where near.
the target.
Coming to the subject of artil-
lery, Mr. Wood ays that every-
where bis expcrfcr.ee and talks
have shown the dominant im-
portance of this arm. Personal
observations among the wound-
ed cause him to estimate that
nearly 50 per cent of the total
casualties of the war are due to
.artillery.
As far as field artillery is con-
cerned, the French methods are
entirely different from the Ger
man. The French field artillery
is always used in direct fire, \
and the positions arc usually a
long distance behind the infan-
tryfrom 1,500 to 3,500 yards.
Close proximity to the infantry
is studiously avoided. The
emplacements are often in deep
wooded valhv s.
The German field artillery.on
the other hand, is nearly always
very close to the infantry, and
often is in position for direct

"There is one thing ntjeded
that no money can buy, and
that is priceless old linen, and
it is wanted now in generous
quantities. Hospitals at the
front and at home alike re-
cognise its value, for it is not
a marketable commodity,
and the available amount of
it depends in the foresight of
individuals. Ladies who are
contributing money and gai -
ments in the cause of the sick
and wounded u ill earn an-
other debt of gratitude if
they throw into their gift old
linen sheets, handkerchiefs
shirts etc. It do< s not mat-
ter if it be in holes, as it can
be torn into strips of various
sizes and shapes; and it
should not be mended as 0
