.ECONOM|zING Of MEN
ORDERED BY GERMANS
IN MILITARY ORDER

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY. Aug. Is.
-tBy the Associated Press.)-A cap
tured enemy secret order. signed Luden-
dorft lays stress on the necessity OF
economizIng men. The order asserts
that the two elements essential to the
future conduct Of the war are ito main
tain everywhere our fighting strength
and the spirit of offensive"
The captured document was issued
late in June, since which time not only
have the German forces been materially
Whitfield down by the allied armies. bu.
if the spirit Of offensive" still exists, it
certainly is not among the troops that
have been fighting at the Sommc and
the Marine rivers. -.
1T is essential says the order in be-
ginning, that all commanders Of what
ever rank. as we'll as all troops. should
be mbued with the idea that the war
cannot be won by a stubborn defense.
but only by further succession OF Wig
orous attacks. These attacks. however.
cannot lead to Victory unless We ad-
here to and improve on the methods OF
warfare adopted in the recent oi1en-
SiveS."
