Won STEIN CERTAIN OF VICTORY
Prussian Minister Knows Nothing Of
America, but Assumes Cocksurc AT.
titudc Discussing War.

Amsterdam, Jan. 20.-"I do not
know the Americans, nor do know
what they are capable of doing in this
war;" said General Won Stein. Prussian
minister of war in an interview in a
recent issue of the Budapest Hirlap.
The general is quoted. however. as de-
claring that the central powers were
we'll prepared for meeting America.
The war minister said he did not
regard air lighting as a decisive fac
tor. He had heard of extensive Ameri.
can plans in this connection. But"
ne said. much depends upon what the
American engineers can do and still
more depends upon whether efficient,
experienced crews can be obtained by
them"
Speaking of the present situation
General Won Stein said:
"All humanity desires peace and
naturally so do /. AS q soldier I know
only one possibility for ending the war
and that is victory Every renuncia-
ton Is only a sign of weakness and an
acknowledgment OF defeat. He wh
renounces the fruits of his success or
the battlefield puts the enemy in a DO
sition to consider himself a victor and
helps him in his plans of destruction.
There is no sign of a desire for an un-
derstanding on the part of our enc
mics"
I'm reality military decision has
already been obtained. When our enc
mics recognize that they can not
drive us out of the occupied territory
they will thereby admit that they have
been DEBATED"
General Won Stein asserted that the
moving and decisive power is the in
dividual man." and he declared the
Germans were not afraid of the won
ders of technical science.
There are. for instance" he said,
the tanks which made their first an
perance I'm the Somme battle. At
tlrst, we naturally did not know how
to destroy them. My soldiers even
climbed on top of them and tried to
blow them open with hand grenades.
But we soon learned that there was

ly, our guns"
