ROTTERDAM. September 13.-The
Psychology OF the battlefield gets a
rather thorough and able treatment bv
an Austrian reserve officer who, after
having been wounded in an engage

lowing Interview to AN Hungarian
Journalist. Tho officer In question was
with General Danlll I'm the fighting

You feel little or nothing while in
battle" he said. AT least, you forget
how things affect your mind The owes

perceptions which do not result I'm I'm
pressions one could coordinate They
90 not even affect your sentiments.
But 1T is not cynicism for all that,
merely tho lack of appreciation OF what
takes place. My captain, most love
able fellow, whom I did not alone re-
spect ms an officer. but of whom l also
thought a great deal personally, was
leading his company into fro when
throe bullets hit him in the abdomen
] saw him fall, but thought nothing OF
1t, and marched on.
I'm spite OF the fact that You have
no i'll feelings against tho enemy. and
may not even fear him. you destroy
him rs best you can. On the evening
before our first battle we were sitting
officers of the line. None of us Had
ever killed a man. i said: Friends

his hand. My comrades agreed with
me. Hut on tho following day was

My Slovacs arc tho most phlegmatic
people in the world, but excellent sol
dicrs. They shoot without anger, but
simply because they arc fired upon.
One fights because one is on the battle
field and cannot do any different. The
terrible thing is that often you are shot
nt without being able to return the
fire. But this Is not as fear-inspiriug
as it is discouraGing. You learn to
know what fear is when you begin
to realize that you might be killed
without killing somebody FIRST.
