course every army had spies. but no.

were really most extraordinary peo-
pie. II was in its way the same kind
of revolutionary work that this gov
ernment did in diplcmacy-it made
the traditional modern diplomacy

secret service work in the modern
trade of war. The books OF instruc.

to this effect is an invention of II Ger

parts of the caissons are equipped

latter draw heavy chains attached to
