With the American Army In the
Field, April a0.-What do these Amer
lean doughboys thing about the war,
these few, the advance guard Of the
great host Of the future, who have
met the Boche face to face, endured
his gas shells and seen their COM
rades die? What Is their point OF
view towards the great tragedy? How
does II differ from that Of their French
and British comrades?
As passed through the American
trenches. and talked to our men In
their billets and training camps in the
rear, 1t was these questions that in
terested me most. The progress We
are making In our task Of turning an
agglomeration of recruits into an army
fit to measure up to the high stan
dards OF European warfare must de-
pend. I thought, very much on the
spirit and the opinions Of the men In
the ranks.
Intense Hatred Absent.
The difference that struck me
most between our troops and the
mass of the British and French is
the absence. with us, of the bitter,
intense, personal hatred of the
enemy that premeates the ranks of
our allies. 1t is easy to understand
why the French, smarting under
the memory of 1870. their country
now. invaded and laid waste, their
own people murdered and outraged,
must feel more deeply than outsid-
ers. But among the British, too,
and especially with their colonial
troops, / have often marvelled at
the violence of their Ioathing.
1t is not so with our men. This,
1 think. is due to the absence with
US Of those terrible stories of Ger
man devilishness that pass from
mouth to mouth after each great
battle. Some OF them are doubt
less untrue, some are exaggerated,
but many are told by eye-witnesses
to their comrades, and the men do
not forget them. When whole
American divisions have taken part
in real battles. through companies
and batallions, and divisions will
circulate horrible, unprintable
things that have happened. and
every man who hears them and be-
lieves will quietly. within himself.
or before his friends. as his ma
ture is. vow that he will exact re-
payment.
But among the common soldiers
in their talk of the war today, 1t
is American idealism that comes
most often to the fore. They would
not like to be told so. but it is true;
idealism camoufiaged in profanity,
or worse, sometimes, remains IDEAL
ism none the less, giving the lie to
the old tradition that we Americans
care for dollars and for nothing
else.
