dilated on the preparations that are
being made by the United States to
take their full part in the war.
Captain Tardieu said that he gained
the knowledge during his visit to the
United States that Americans consid-
er the war their own and that their or
ganization for the conduct Of HOSTILE
ties was the most complete of all the
belligerents
In 1919, he added, 100000 Ameri.
cans will be in France. and the Ger
mans, Notwithstanding their repatria.
ton Of prisoners from Russia, never
will be able to attain such number
of men on their side.
In 1919, Captain Tardieu continued,
through it's intensive building program
the United States would have 12,000,-
600 tons of shipping. At present 2,000,-
600 tons already have been launched.
He said the transportation of troops
at the present time is six times great
err than some months ago and that
less danger is experienced in convey
ing them across seas. The training
of the men also is more rapid than I'M

of the Americans to learn rapidly sur
