Amsterdam, Oct. 1.-THE Weser
ticle by Major Hoffe of the German
general staff on the effect of the en-
trance of the United States will have
on the war After reviewing the diff
ficulties OF. the United States in train
ing and transporting troops to Europe
he declares that. the American mill .
tary possibilities may safely be ignor-
ed by Germany
Before the declaration of war" he
says, the military. cesources Of the
United States consisted of an insult
ficiently trained regular army of only
100000 and a national guard of 120,-
600, hardly trained at all. The vicious
measures taken to increase the army
will result In the formation by spring
of an army of about 100000 which
has only received minimum training
Only Small Army Possible.
mo considerable part of this army
can reach Europe before summer,
while, in any case, a large number
must be retained at home, so that not
more than 100000 or 500, 900 men can
be sent to Europe. The transport
difficulties will be enormous. Two
and half million tons of shipping
will be necessary to transport and
supply sixteen divisions and the total
American shipping, even allowing for
confiscated ships and new construc-
tion, will by spring be fully 100000,
of which the navy requires $500 900.
Any extensive transport of Ameri-
can troops would cause serious diff
culties in supplies to England and
France. 1t must also be remembered
that the U-boats are sinking more and
more ships daily.
About EQUAL to Rumania.
FINALLY the fighting value of the
American troops is not great, probably
about equal to that of the Rumanians
and there certainly will be fewer of
them than of the Rumanians. So
Germany will have an easy task. In
fact it is doubtful whether the Ameri-
cans will risk the venture of sending
an army to Europe at ALL
"The only American help to be seri-
ously reckoned with is in the air. Fly
ers can be quickly trained and easily
transported but the German COM
mand has taken all necessary meas
ures to meet this danger. The new
enemy directs his efforts less against
the German army than against the
nerves of the German people and
against the internal unity of Ger
many"

Petrograd, Oct. 17,-Regarding the

tions there as coming from a compe-
tent naval authority:
"While our fleet in the zone of op-

forces four times its strength our
army finds itself in more favora BILE
position, the strength of the German
troops landed being insignificant.
Tagga bay, the only place where re-

exposed to the flortherly gales which
have been blowing for two days. The
transportation of our reinforcements

not depend upon weather conditions.
Predicts Reinforcements.
'This explains the persistent ef-
forts of German destroyers to pene-
trate as far as Moon sound, thereby
threatening our communications and
the enemy's desperate attacks against
the troops defending these communi-
cations The matter should be set
tied before long, as we are fastening
the dispatch of reinforcements for
counter-attack which is imminent"

reads:

calm, bright weather. the enemy has
