MORE RESERVES THAN
EVER, SAYS HlNDENBURG

BARCELONA, Spain. May 15.-In
recent interview with the correspond
ent of the Barcelona newspaper Van.
guardia, Field Marshal Won linden
burg said that Germany had a greater
strategic reserve ut her disposal than
ever.
He declared the United States new
army would get into the war too late
TO be OF any use, and that America
as an enemy could not give appreci-
ably more. aid TO the entente than she
had as a neutral.
The German leaders remarks, in
part. were as follows:
in deciding on unrestricted U-boat
warfare. notwithstanding the posi-
bility of America coming to the as.
sistance of the entente powers, we
deemed such assistance was of no
weight. ] certainly admit that the
financial assistance of the United
States should be booked as an add.
tiOnal asset for our enemies, but in
this war, contrary TO what has been
the case in other wars, money has
proved not TO be the most important
matter for the conduct of military
operations.
The American supply OF war ma
terial To the entente has alread!
reached such a magnitude that any
further increase appears to be hardly
possible, and now II is proposed e
raise an army of half a million tC
two millions of men. To equip sucl
an army and at the same time TO sup
ply the entente on the present scal'
appears to be impossible. The ma
'terial assistance given to the entent
cannot be very great within an
measurable time, and it is the tasl
of our U-boats continually to dimil
ish il.
IF the British fleet, with the hel
of the French. Italian. Russian an
Japanese navies, has hitherto bee
unable to overcome the U-boat dar

January. The price of the contraband

to a healthy mind and vice versa.
