LIVERPOOL, July 12-The high re-
gard in which the American soldier Is
held by experienced British fighters
is attested by correspondent of the
Liverpool Post. He writes:
"The official testimony as to the
quality of the American troops is
confirmed by unofficial evidence that
the new fighting force is appreciated
highly by the veteran warriors Of
three OF four years of war. Our own
men at first were inclined to be sus.
picious of the Americans because they
thought they would swank' about
coming in to finish the war, but when
they found that the Americans did
not swami and were eager only to
learn the art of warfare, all suspicion
vanished, and comradeship in arms
is springing up.
THE Americans in this country are
creating an excellent impression, and
when we get over our shyness, and
when the American wounded are en-
trusted to our care, relationships will
become still more intimate. An Aus
tralan officer told me that he and his
friends had come to regard leave to
England as equivalent as nearly as
possible to visit home, and it Is
hoped that the Americans will soon
come to have the same feeling"
