HAS A POOR
OPINION OF
OUR ARMY
GERMAN MILITARY EXPERT SAYS
AMERICAN ARMY is INFERIOR
TO THIRD CLASS POLICE FORCE
AND THE NAVY BUT A SHADE
BETTER"
UNITED PRESS LEASED w1RE.l

Berlin, March 20.-Freely translat-
ed from the German, Herr Colonel
Richard Gaedke's expert military
opinion is that the United States army
is inferior to a third class police
force, and that the United States
navy is only a shade better.
The opinion was igven in the Tage-
blatt. Gaedeke believes that the
weakness of the American army,
compared with European forces, is
extreme and that it is a loose body
Of troops without any bond between
them for cooperation. The United
States lacks generals; it lacks organ
ization and 1t lacks military progress
sives, according to the Berliner. The
navy would be helpless when Japan
or any other power shall sink a war
ship in the Panama canal.
Gaedeke calls the Amerlcan-Japan-
ese war a possibility but not a prob
ability, and declares that the military
mobilization is really for maneuver
purposes. and it developed all the
weaknesses he claims exist.
