GERMAN Generals Laud Doughboys as “Brave and Reckless.” Berlin.—The former heirs to the thrones of Germany, her generals and those enlisted men who apposed American troops in the world war are unanimous in their apraisal of the American soldler—"a man of superb courage and recklessness.” Some add that he often lacked sufficient military training, for which America’s heavy losses must be blamed, but they are practically agreed In their conviction that it was the American doughboy with his superior equipment who won the war for the allies, writes Sigrid Schultz in the Chicago TrMune. Some of Germany's most famous generals, who stood opposite American troops, have been interviewed. Former Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria was “the real scrapper” among Ger man princes. He shares the opinion of former Crown Prince Friedrich Wil- helm of Prussia and Germany. “U. 8. Troops Beat Us.” “As the war progressed I was per manently worried by the thought that the United States might possibly enter the war on the side of our enemies,” Rupprecht said. "American support to the allies, war material at the begin. ning and troops at the latter part of the struggle brought about our defeat. The American forces opposing us con- sisted of young, strong men trained in sports.” Anotl wer, Gen, Hans von Seeckt, for- Draw Up Kules for Air Flights in the Orient Wa ton.—New regulatis gov- erning ne ign flights in Japan and China have been passed following the Herndon-P: worn difficulty, which led to a “minor™ "diplomatic Issue, The Department of Commerce been advised that permission for fligh Japanese territory must be ob tained In advance for each flig as well as instructions outlining the route to be followed.

The fresh American troops, thrown into line at a front weakened by years of fighting, decided the fate of the war, The heavy losses suffered by the American troops were due to their great spirit of attack and their lack of war experience. As far as the American forces were able to work Independently, American general. ship was quite up to the mark.” Stresses Lack of Training. General von Einem, former com- mander of the Third German army, stressed the lack of training which handicapped the American soldier com- pared to men who had fought for three and one-half years, His troops fought American troops between Alsne and Meuse, “If the war had lasted longer the Americans would have become real soldiers, and very good ones at that,” he sald. “Compared to our old vet erans, the Americans were mere bear ers of arms, What the Americans lacked In war experience they made up by great pluck and devotion to their cause.” “The Americans were great fellows, tremendously plucky—but real chil. dren in battle,” sald Gen.

Henderson, coun- ty agricultural extension agent at large for the Colorado Agricultural college, By taking proper precautions, hog cholera, although the most serious dis- ease of hogs and the only common dis. ease which spreads rapidly and 1s high- ly fatal, becomes one of the easiest of hog troubles to control, It is a job for well-trained men, he advises.
