as In former wars. The battles merely
have an indirect influence on the whole
national system, inducing decay and col
lapse"
The correspondent says he gained the
impression that Field Marshal Won Hin
denburg and General Won Ludendorff de-
sire a peace which viii create condi-
tlons Of security and stability so fer as
possible: one which will bring with 10
secure frontiers and free economic ac-
tiyity on land and sea.
With refercIce to the Russian army
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg gave to
the correspondent his opinion that no
more military activity on a large scale
could be expected from it.
He thought it possible however. adds
the correspondent, that some despot
or other like. Grand Duke Nicholas
might seize power and incite the war
weary Russian army to a final effort
Regarding the situation on the west
ern front Field Marshal Won Hlndenhurg
said the successful employment Of the
German policy Of elastic defence con
tlnued, and that when occasional Sec
tions Of morasses or smoke blackened
debris were left TO their opponents for
the purpose Of saving human material
Il was OF no Importance. Occasional
local rebuffs must he taken into account
as an inevitable consequence Of carry
ing through great ofenslves at other
points.
Regarding the Supreme War Council
Of the Allies, the Field Marshal saiC
with a smile: "Such institutions are al
ways a sign OF incapacity and helpless
ness When they are at their wits enl
! war council is established"
General Won Ludendorff said that 70
Germany there was no question as q
Alsace-LOrralne. He thought a decisiv
blow against France perhaps would sue
coed, although nowadays, when natlona
strength lights national strength, SIN
gle blow hardly could decide the war
The General said, however that 10 was
not TO be doubted a single moment who
would be victor.
