army has improved since then. Our sold CTS take prisoners of war who fall upon their captors' neck and with tears in their eyes thank them for having been captured"
 TO the question whether or not he thought a ney Russian offensive like. ly. Von Hindenburg replied:
 "A new Russian offensive is not probable. but they may try. one never theless. In war one gets the prophet ic habit, particularly when dealing with intentions of the antagonist"
 Of the possibility of having to meet simultaneously an offensive East and West, the General sad;
 'If they attack us East and West we shall beat them East and West. :"
 Von Hindenburg was generous In his praise of the Bulgarian army, and spoke in glowing terms of the Austro- Hungarians. especially of their gener- al staff. Chief Conrad von Hoetzen- dorr.
 "A crushing defeat of the Italians would particularly please me-" he ad- ded. "This war cannot close without its three principle culprits-England. Serbia. and ltaly-suffering the pen alty which is rightfully theirs"
 von Hindenburg plso talked in a lighter vein. Reference was made to the statue of himself in Berlin, .nto which people drive nails as a token of their pledge to contribute to chari- table purposes. It was said that the huge wooden statue was more im- pressive by virtue of it's size than of .ts beauty.
 "They can nail me right heartily" said the General with a smile, "so long as doing so helps to bring in much money for good purposes.
 He had merely done his duty said Von Hindenburg in reioinder to a re- mark concerning his great popularity among the German people. He did not wish to te feted, but, if necessary, nc meet popular wishes. he could have himself stuffed and placed on exhibition.
